THEE OFFICIAL 2019-2020 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: VICTORY LAP

[addict4sneakers]

Ain’t no way the Pacers holding Giannis to 8

 

[P C H]

Everybody wanted to blame it on supporting talent, but where’s the last mega star-level talent that had that little success as THE GUY on a team 7 years in?

There ain’t one far as I can find.

The idea of him is so great. But so much of his game is open jumpers / putbacks / lobs.

Hard for him to carry an offense in non bron minutes even if bron plays 37 come playoff time.

 

[amitt5504]

I'm really getting there with AD.
8 points in 35 minutes. Unacceptable.

But if that was Embiid....

 

[D StaXX]

The weird thing is AD does have all the talent in the world.

 

[whoaitsgee]

TJ Warren's Covid bubble stats.


34.2 PPG
60.5% shooting

 

[yobyellav]

Who is this in this ****'s back to school commercial?

 

[tay1]

nope....AD go be fine

Yeah let’s be clear, AD gon be iight. Bron iight. Just frustrating right now. Once we beat up on whoever in the first round, we’ll be alright

 

[Sharpshoeter13]

Lakers crunch time offense really consists of LeBron turnaround jumpers from the elbow and AD catch n shoot 3s?

 

[superblytrife]

Warren playing god tier hoops in the bubble. Can’t say I saw that coming.

 

[storm2006]

Any takeaways?

Frank Vogel is obviously comfortable still experimenting with lineups and rotations. So if he's not worried you probably shouldn't be.

Spoiler

 

[T0INE]

On another note Tj Warren.

 

[noblekane]

man yall really hate ad huh?

kawhii leonard SR is

 

[tay1]

Now I agree with Skip on this. Bron load managed

 

[Upptempo]

Warriors used to have those late season slumps when they'd stop caring about winning bc the one seed was locked and people would say wArRiOrs dOnE and 3 outta 5 times they won a chip. Not saying Lakers are def winning a ring but I'm not putting much stock into these meaningless games

 

[freeze]

If only we could play the clippers every nite

Play the clippers missing their 2 biggest bench threats you mean. Lakers probs lose to the clippers at full strength 80% of the time.

 

[pmatic]

AD's biggest advantage is he is arguably the most athletic big ever.

Take away the lobs, putbacks and open court plays (easier said than done of course) and he's neutralized more than other great players.

 

[amitt5504]

Heat n Pacers play 2 more times before the playoffs start

Sixers about to sneak into the 4 seed lol

 

[youngthundercat]

Who was TJ Warren going to fight earlier in the year?

Stringer butler

 

[darthska]

Now I agree with Skip on this. Bron just had some load management

#consistency

 

[antidope]

The weird thing is AD does have all the talent in the world.

But does he? Or is he just out athleting people

 

[noblekane]

lets not give kyle guzman a pass. he was awful today aswell

 

[N41D]

But does he? Or is he just out athleting people

He does so many things well.

It’s a head game. He ain’t got it. It’s why he ran to Bron at first opportunity. He’s Robin.

 

[dman14]

AD lookin like willie caulie stein without the face tattoos

 

[D StaXX]

lets not give kyle guzman a pass. he was awful today aswell

6-28 from the floor for Kuz & AD. Nasty.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Are the Lakers the new most hated team?
