THEE OFFICIAL 2019-2020 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: VICTORY LAP

[friscostylez]

Wait a minute...excellent catch. Rodman made it in 92/95 (both third team - one year with Jordan) and Pippen made it from 92 - 98 (5 years with with Jordan) but only one of his first teams was when Jordan played (96).

I feel like we can't really count 96 even tho MJ came back in the end lol but that's just me

Additionally, wade was an first team and klove was a second team before teamming up with LeBron. Shouldn't LeBron be knocked for them never making 1st team playing with him?

Buc Em has definitely said "All lives matter" unironically.
Probably thinks "Identity politics" is what's ruining America.

These are his takes regarding race. Not much has changed in 3.5 years.

Zero lies detected in those quotes either.

Again....to any insight and true in depth coverage of the KD warrirors era....I recommend listening to....

KD HIMSELF on All the smoke & Steve Kerr on Bill Simmons

pmatic .....how you feel about what they said? Ain’t seen you discuss that.

Cool. I’ll take being a sheep over one of these...

BTDubs, calling people who think differently than you “sheep” is another gem right out of the MAGA playbook.

If the NBA does a one game elimination tourny style (all teams in, games played on a neutral floor possibly fanless) to finish up the season, what would be yall thoughts on that lol

Honestly not sure. The idea of it doesn’t really excite me at all right now, but maybe I’d get more into it once it started.

I think I'd rather just not have a postseason at all than have that. In a 7 game series the cream usually rises to the top. In single elimination you never know. Which is great for the NCAA but it would be weird for a team like the Pacers or Thunder or something to become the champs by winning 5 total games, and I don't think anyone would take their title seriously.

OKB Bosh Bat Signal is highly effective...

considering bosh made a video asking fans to vote him into the '08 ASG, i am lead to believe that he is actually OKB

Agreed. friscostylez would this be for the championship or ****s and giggles? I don’t think the players would be down with the idea either.

I'd have to re-listen to the podcasts again because it's been awhile.

But I had though back during the middle of KD's second season that I thought he wasn't long for Golden State.

Whole all the smoke pod...is a good listen on it.



Y’all ignore these tho.

Anybody tryna wager on Lakers/Celtics tonite?

 

[wavycrocket]

Last thing imma leave here. Kevin Durant goes for 43 points...in a game 3, and the big shot to put up GSW 6 points and essentially close the door on the series....and the media (and others)....argue that LeBron James...down (0-3) should be Finals MVP



**** like this really happened man.

 

[lawdog1]

Hmmmm...not sure what to think about this.

You don’t think Ethan Sherwood Strauss is a good source?

and BucEm is consistently loud and uninformed. The most dangerous combo out there.

Strauss on point. From hearing him in various podcast though, he def felt away about KD calling him out. I’m saying...there’s a lot more to it...that #yall Conveniently ignore from the actual people involved.

I rock with Strauss. There’s some gems he drops, and some truth to it. But to get a fuller picture (which y’all don’t want to do or highlight) I always recommend hearing from Kerr, KD & even Steph. They touched on this very issue in a candid way...multiple of times over the last year or so across different mediums.

But it doesn’t get highlighted because it’s nuanced, real and not click-baity, take worthy. Can’t be sensible outchea. Gotta be trolly/click baity. No middle ground. This is the the only way.

Spots talk done gone the way of Barry McCockinner....and *****s can’t see it .
