Weapschizo told me that he was a huge part of the young core and the farm, and that Pat was right to not want to give him up for KD.

Why?

>>149368298
Cause he’s a retard

>>149368298

WITH THE SIXTH PICK THE WASHINGTON WIZARDS SELECT!

>>149368378
The big black nigga from duke

>>149368298
28 is prime age, why would you trade a young player in his prime and multiple blue chip prospects on rookie scale deals for a rental of a 37 year old KD?

>>149368298
LMAOOOOO

The best part about a finals game 7 is that it’s an ultimate KWAB for the loser no matter who it is. Either Shai or Haliburton is the biggest fraud on the earth, cant wait to find out who.

Im looking forward to the slander

The funniest possible outcome tonight is:
>Indiana wins behind a huge performance from TJ McConnell
>McConnell wins Finals MVP
>immediately following the game, McConnell uses a compliance engine on Shai "DEI MVP" Gilgeous-Alexander at half-court

>that moment when you search up las vegas
>think its somewhere in shithole california this entire time
>its actually in some random shithole called nevada????
The fuck is a nevada, what the fuck?????

OKC up by 20+ in the 4th and Daigneault decides to pull the starters with 5 minutes to go. SGA does the choking meme sign at Failiburton on the way out.
How epic would it be

We are about to declare war on Iran and institute a draft and you only care about Kevin Durant and a children game matchup tonight

That KD trade seems wild. I mean KD is 37 man, and they gave up that much for him? How many years does dude even have left?

>>149368518
you cant pull a choke sign when you are the overwhelming favorite

Who's stopping the Suns new big 3?

>>149368529
what the hell do you mean "that much?" They got off of a bust with a bad contract, a decent starter, and a pick. That's a fine trade

who would take him

what time should I go grab mcdonalds for the game?

reminder that tonight is the series finale of basketball before ww3 begins and we all die for israel

a world where TJ McConnell is the FINAL finals mvp and reigns forever as the king of basketball is entirely possible….

>Haliburton is a fraud
I don't think many people beyond knee jerk reactionaries on sports media shows claimed he was anything beyond what he is; a good player whose team got hot at the right time and pretty good in the clutch.
SGA and the Thunder are already having dynasty talks. People are comparing him and Jalen Williams to Jordan and Pippen. Everyone's wondering if they'll go back to back. If the Pacers lose, it's "damn, what a season, can't believe you guys got this close". If the Thunder lose, it's "holy fucking shit what a God damn failure, you lost to the PACERS??? you're the biggest favorites in finals history! you have the MVP! what the fuck happened?!"

>>149368840
Meanwhile in the end we all know who the real winner will be

THE THREAD

>>149368692
because of KDs absurdly high pricetag, whoever traded for him was bound to overpay. the only reasonable trade that could've been made would've been KD for paul george

That doesn't narrow it down

>>149368993
The Nuggets seem like a team that doesn't really care about winning championships. The moves that they have done after winning it all in 2023 show that they are happy with winning one.

You can't have the best player in the league in the heart of his prime on your team and decide to let the GM develop young players and give max contracts to players that have never been all-stars. agine if the Nuggets had an All-NBA defender on their starting lineup and Braun with another couple of decent players on the bench so the starters can rest without the team getting raped. This team would be in the finals every year.

Jokic is really good and while I don't think the rest of the starters are All-Star tier good, they have extremely good chemistry and are all still young with plenty of playoff experience. It's so obvious what this team needs to be a contender but for some reason they do the opposite every year

>>149369207
>Timelord for Jrue
>Wiggins for Love
>Odom for Shaq (Lakers low-key won this one)

>>149368586
why does dis bitch look familar, and da fuck she doing in a jersey of the shitty place ive lived my whole life (not downtown shithole thats for fake torontonians, im talking north york shit, where the real toronto at)

>>149368529
If you don't think the Rockets completely fleeced the Suns you're retarded. Even at his age KD is still an elite shooter who is an objective improvement over Green as a scoring option and defensive player

>>149368624
kek did the nuggest seriously fumble booker that early on in their shitty franchise before jokic took off?

tfw when you aint getting traded

>>149369088
This was such a good trade for the Rockets too as it now clears room for Sheppard to get playing time, he's gonna be so good.

>>149369759
Pretty sure they drafted Mudiay that year

Name that player

>>149369887
>>149369813
real stats

>>149369889
I wouldn't call Green a bust but we are definitely seeing his peak and seeing that he chokes come playoff time. That said, he's still 23 and if this new PHX coach is as innovative and creative as every report claims he is maybe they can get him in better sets and his efficiency will go up. Ime isn't exactly known as being an X's and O's coach, more of a motivator and defensive background. Much of Greens success last season was off iso plays, I think he has an entire off-ball game to him that we have yet to see

My dad is rooting for the Thunder. What a cück

here are his accomplishments. Any guesses? if I showed the years it would give it away

>>149369813
Woulda said Coop but got it second guess. There needs to be a perimeter defender of the year award if they're never going to give it to guards again.

>>149369920
>>149369813

Today I learned that Kenny the jet Smith was drafted before Reggie

>>149369928
I hope you're right. Sad to see since he's an exceptional talent. But yeah his days of being a first option might be coming to an end.

>>149370361
Literally 5 out of the 6 guys drafted after kenny were better nba players than him. Maybe MAYBE kenny is better than mugsy, but not by much. I’m only confident I’m saying he was better than polynice, and even then, not by much

>>149370361
There was a lot of criticism of the Miller back in the day in Indiana, they wanted to draft a local white shooting guard that wound up going in the 7th round or something retarded and not having a career

>>149368298
What even was the the Heat's offer for KD? Their end of bench guys and a few seconds? Pat Riley is washed

>>149370450
Indiana is like boston, is like dallas, is like utah. They’re not afraid to admit they want a white guy on the team who gets good minutes

>>149370436
....ring check?

>>149370472
Bubble gum and paperclips

>>149370526
Get off the internet, kenny. Bring hakeem and Clyde some water

>>149370526
He won 2 rings as Hakeem's jockstrap I could have 2 rings if all I had to do was pass The Dream the ball in the post

>>149370619
Kenny received more MVP votes than Hakeem in 91

>>149370640
Kenny you were never that dude, brother

>>149370640
Stop with the tough talk, Kenneth

FUCK KEVIN DURANT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBQ2mjkvYY8

hmmmm should i actually watch this game 7? would be the first match i actually bother to watch this finals

>>149370544
lol. Now watch the Heat try to lowball the Bucks too if Giannis ever becomes available.

>>149370640

https://youtu.be/G1ZMviEik3U?si=Z_BO_cuNe01eKo19

What's more embarrassing, KD settling for the Rockets or the Rockets taking him in when he bent them over and embarrassed them for years?

>>149370436
Smith was better than Dennis Hopson doe

GAME STARTING SOON

She doing too much

>>149368529
You mean Houston paid peanuts for KD potentially getting bounced by Curry in the first round.

>>149370886
That's what you get when you hire a theater kid to do the anthem

>>149370805
>when he bent them over and embarrassed them for years?
That was currdawg, not KD. Currdawg even won the Game 7 without KD in 2019

CHOKELAHOMA

>>149371043
Curry is so underrated, that series only went to 6 games thoughbeit

Who are you guys watching the game with? You're not watching it alone on your laptop, right?

>>149371263
correction, alone on my cheap tv.

>>149371255
>Curry is so underrated
Unironically true. Im not even joking

Genuinely amazing how awful these last two seasons have been

terrorism has been defeated

>>149371832

Crazy how 2 seasons get ruined immediately whenever an Achilles gets ruptured

>>149371918
Its literally the textbook diagram of how this shit happens.
Both stretching and contracting the Achilles at the same time whenever you put your heel down like that.

>>149371918
literally everyone predicted this would happen. playing on a calf strain leads to achilles tear

I don't give a rats ass, Pacers are still winning this series.

tj mcconnell this is your moment

>>149372251
>The east will be without Tatum, Haliburton and possibly Giannis if he gets traded.
How fucking terrible will that conference be next year. Will The Bulls finally have a chance to nab the 7th seed?

>>149372346
damn you can see the pain on his face. prayers for him. wouldn't wish this on anyone.

how well was he even doing before the injury?

>>149372388
Scored 9 points in 5 minutes
It was a level of aggression he showed in that Cleveland game 5 where he had 31 points

He definitely would have blown them out if he kept playing

>>149372460
>He definitely would have blown them out if he kept playing
lol this is cope, but he played decent i guess

>>149372545
>cope
Did you not watch game 6 where okc was down 30???????

>>149372346
wonder if its a calf or achillies tear?

>>149370544
Gotta save that Jovic to try and trick a maximum retarded team that doesn't read closely and thinks they're getting Jokic. A Sixers type

>>149372604

>>149373191
>to protect his golden lightskin boy Steph's legacy. Steve Kerr will pay for this terrorism :)
.....what? Curry also got injured what the fuck are you talking about? and if your stupid point is "another lightskin winning a chip would threaten currys legacy!" then tatum already won one retard. besides if pacers won this with hali, he gets no credit for the finals matches anyway. hes had mediocre impact.

Fuck you, Josh Hart

Light skinned niggas are weak

>eating my cotton candy

wtf is this bullshit...

Staying healthy is part of the game. Cry about it.

Troll. But anyway this is valid for hali who already knew he was at risk, and his injury anyway just looked like bad foot work, but ja morant literally got bulldozed. no idea what happened to curry, guess he's just old, no idea what happened to AG either

>>149373914
They really put Steph there LMAO

>>149374472

>nuggets heat finals game remains the biggest nba related thread on /sp/
how?

>>149374273
Absolutely not trolling. If your body can’t keep up with the intensity of the game, the other team’s victory is not tarnished in anyway. The whole asterisk shit unironically gets under my skin a little bit. Unless it’s something like what Zaza did to Kawhi (intentionally injuring another player) then injuries shouldn’t even be part of the conversation.

>>149373914
Real champions just fake injuries for the foul call and then are good to go again.

Another W for Canada

it is so fucking over

>If your body can’t keep up with the intensity of the game, the other team’s victory is not tarnished in anyway.
What a stupid fucking thing to say. You dont understand shit about the human body, on what authority of the capacity of the human body do you have to say this?
Besides based on this retarded shit fouls shouldn't exist since everything is about the intensity of the game and if you just cant handle it, thats your fault. It was Kawhis fault Zaza stepped on his foot. Kys retard
>The whole asterisk shit unironically gets under my skin a little bit.

Yeah you’re too dumb to understand what I’m saying. It sucks that retards like you think your opinion matters. Oh well. Such is life. Have fun searching for ways to discredit every championship aside from your own team. You new NBA fans absolutely fucking suck. I cant wait for you to get bored with hoops so your bum ass can infest another sports culture.

>and then a pacerfag whined about injuries

>>149374990

>healthy team in the finals
You tranny discord faggots live in your own universe don't you? You faced ZERO (zero) HEALTHY TEAM
You can't whine about the Pacers beating a Haliburtonless Pacers because your faggot Inceltics team did the same shit.

Durant is going to be a 1 year rental for the Rockets until the Sonics return the following year and he will win a ring and retire there as a rightful Sonics legend. Adam Silver i just gave you the script :)

Reggie Bros...

>>149375013
I'm not either but it's funny to me. All of this stuff is legit childish. Like toddlers yelling "nuh uh" because something didn't go their way. OKC won, boston won, denver won, etc. regardless of if they get lucky or not

>at least we faced a healthy team in the finals
Luka was literally cosplaying as a mummy. That dude was NOT healthy. Not that the Inceltics would've made the *nals if the East was healthy so the finals itself is a moot point. Thunder just won a championship and here you are trying to legitimatize your *. Nobody is falling for it.

Am I retarded or is insane that these catastrophic Achilles injures always happen to stars? Like its almost always the best player on the team.

>>149374578
2023 was the last finals with aura

>>149375137
you just don't care when it happens to lesser players. The pacers have 2 guys with achilies tears. Denver drafted a guy who snapped his in summer league. Brandon Clarke, Dwight Powell, there have been a bunch in recent memory

>Shai is the official face of the NBA

Don't run when it comes. I won. I fucking won. I knew that this would be the result for months and i've been saying it in this general. I was mocked, ridiculed and shamed in these threads all year but deep down I knew that Shai would apply belt to get 68 wins, I knew he would apply belt to the grizzlies, I knew he would apply belt to the nuggets, I knew he would apply belt to the timberwolves, I knew he would apply belt to the pacers. I knew it all along, i was correct.

Now i must say this. It has come, just like I said it would. Don't run, stay there, fight back, be a man. The belt has been applied, Shai won FMVP just like I said he would. Don't run, stay there, fight back, be a man.

I need apologies from the following; slovenia, leviticus, serbia, BAWBaussie, bulgaria, inceltic, weapschizo, ireshart, pacersfags, northwest territories, malaysia, new zealand. I especially need an apology from the luka slovenian fan. You were the one that started a smear campaign against my name.

Don't run when it comes. I won.

Does this ring have more or less respect than the bubble?

YOU TOLD ME HE'D NEVER GET A RING
GET FUCKED YOU THIRD WORLD FUCKING LOSER
YOU LOST
CHOKIC LOST
GET FUCKED GET FUCKED GET FUCKED GET FUCKED GET FUCKED GET FUCKED GET FUCKED

Not sure who's seething more tonight, Pacers or Clippers.

So which most recent Champion isn't considered an asterisk? Which of the most recent Champions was the most souful? For me the last legit ring was Nuggets and the last most soulful Champion was the '16 Cavs.

why are the showing all the qqing pacers instead of the winners

>>149375984
the canadian jeet it looks like

>crying when you lose
Bitch behavior desu

Kinda retarded that the finals don't even change the subject of this thread.

>>149375969

All 4 teams were top 15 in offensive rating too. 'fraid it's a masterclass.

Wow, nothing like a run against nothing but injured teams to really declare a new dynasty lmao

THE DYNASTY STARTS NOW
THE DARK AGE OF CHOKIC DEI MVPS IS OVER
THUNDER THE FUCK UPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

the big dog ate

I hate to say it. But the Indiana Pacers will never win an NBA Championship. We can play great in most of the games, have an all-time memorable run, all for naught in a single play like tonight because this franchise is fucking cursed. I’m starting to think fandom is totally futile.

>>149376004
>thinking you can change mental illness

what now?

>>149375976
Same. Half the league are boring nepo babies. There are no dawgs in this sport anymore.

>Shai not trying to make a moment like Gaytum
Yup. Infinitely more AVRA. We haven't had an actual championship celebration in two years. Holy fuck.

;__;

>>149368226 (OP)
>needed refball to stay in the series
>needed a Haliburton injury to win game 7
Yep this is going in the asterisk column

Sonics fans when the OKC Thunder wins their first NBA Championship

>>149376026
And he kept turning the ball over so it didn't matter

Apologize

Anyone else feels like the last couple of championships feel kinda weak? No disrespect to any of the teams but feels like filler champions...

>>149376067
That guy looked off during the anthem too, I think he's got mental issues.

>>149376043
I'm just amazed he's currently crying online about a player who got knocked out months ago.

Has sga even raised his trophy yet? Lmfao.

0-2 in finals losses KWAB, Haliburton Miller'd himself in the end.

afraid bawbstralia won't be in this world for much longer after this chip

Very disappointed in our luck and rather biased reffing (allowing crazy physicality only one way).

Very happy and proud of the no quit in this team, and the way they play basketball.

Very hopeful we can keep the team together for the most part. Keep the sharing concept and increase our rebounding.

Very very hopeful for a mild achilles injury and a swift recovery.

>>149376004
There is no ring to discredit. Boston doesn't have a ring, it's an *.

YOU LOST
BAWBS LOST
CHOKICGLAZERS ETERNALLY LOSING FOR THE REST OF TIME

I didn’t watch, I saw they lost but how did haliburton play?

>>149376044
I'm never watching the NBA again it's obviously fucking rigged as shit, OKC got away with handchecking and uncalled fouls all entire game and Haliburton got an injury from Lu Dort
I don't ever want to see this sport again, it's just a glorified gambling advertisement

Black excellence

>>149375888
The cope is already starting. Shai FMVP, I won.
>>149375888
Stay there, be a man, fight back, dont run. I won.

On the bright side, had OKC lost Sam Presti would of opened Pandora’s Box to get Giannis

>>149375772
>had to literally take out ja in round 1
>hali goes down immediately in game 7
this shit might be a bigger asterisk than the celshits ring

>>149376029
>>beat top 10 player oat
lol no. jokic isnt top 10 oat. hes still got hakeem and wilt hogging spots who have 2 championships over him, with one of them being way more dominant than jokic ever was.

the only thing that makes jokic historical, are arbitrary advanced stats

Worst NBA finals to reach a game 7?

>>149376042
The pacers probably win this game if it wasnt for the injury. But really, they choked games 4 and 5. Okc were gonna outlast they had to wrap it up early. Its very unlikely they get to replicate this years success. The east will probably be won by the cavs, knicks, pistons or magic.

Piston and spurs was boring as hell

thank fuck this series is over, most lifeless group of players in a long time this 7 games felt like 10. 3 days til the draft, hopefully Flagg doesn't become a zest merchant (okc) or simply boring as fuck (ind)

>>149376066
And thank the Clippers for pretty much giving you most of your roster for PG-13. Seriously that trade really is the NBA version of the Hershel Walker trade.

I like SGA, not someone who likes to hate on the guy, but this is an embarrassing game 7 stat line, and he deserves the rep he has. I guess the story of the NBA is there really isn't a GUY anymore. Just a bunch of guys who are pretty good. SGA is undoubtedly a top 2 player in the world rn, and in championship or bust game he puts up that ugly shit. It's sad, it's really just sad.

My New York Knicks are the spiritual 2024-25 NBA Champions.

The devil finally came to collect in Game 7 of the Finals.

>>149376427
when are you gonna run out of tears

Has Embiid missed his chance to win a ring?

The public perception with Haliburton is actually insufferable. Prior to this game, since he only played 7 minutes tonight, he was averaging 14 points this series. And even prior to this series he's consistently put up sub par numbers against the Thunder.

But now retards are actually trying to perpetuate the idea that the guy averaging 14 points this series who had only scored more than 20 (22) once was going to go off for 40 points and there's no way to disprove it because he got injured. I've never seen another player get more regard and acclaim for doing less.

>>149376431

>>149376403
damn that's nice

>taken to game 7
>opposing teams soul gets injured early in game 7

crazy stuff

This is exactly why the Finals should be best of 1
You don't need fourteen games to decide a winner, this is all corporate greed making sure they have 5001 opportunities for ad space and milking the shit out of the finals. If this series went to one or three games the better team (Pacers) wins easily, but we torture these poor young athletes until there's nothing left.
>just try your best for eighteen games, young buck, you wouldn't want to let your team down and ruin your career chances by losing!

>win three games handily with an exhausted team
>sorry black boy, you need to go for game 7 because the league wills it, don't get injured now, playing at a world class level for weeks on end :)
>oh noooes, you got a career affecting injury? Sucks to suck, now let's get excited about next year!

Its sickening and nobody making these decisions has ever dribbled a ball in their lives. They just sit in an office on the 50th floor and cash checks.

>>149376220
>How does Shaivonte feel winning his titlw with 9/27
Nobody talks about this, but he is surprisingly consistently inefficient on the craziest volumes ever. Jordan wasn't like this, he also takes the 2nd hardest shots in the game frequently (mid fades) whereas its actually overblown how much shai takes those.

Tonight doesn't change the fact that SGA had a historically great NBA season, and he just cemented himself into the easiest HOF to get into. But generationally great players show up in the biggest moments, and he kinda doesn't. Very good player, but that's about it. I guess the takeaway is that the Thunder as a team are really fucking good.

>>149376450
Not yet. He needs to request a trade soon before its too late.

SGA doesn't show up but Haliburton averaging 14 points through this series does?

We gon get SGA

>>149376509
He needs to tuck that lip in, might get it caught on a trip wire!

>>149376459
what kinda cope is this lmao

Reminder: Vegas sports books could’ve gone under if they had to pay out pacers bets

Preseason: 66-1
Mid Season: 150-1
Season End: 80-1
After Round 1: 66-1
After Round 2: 8-1
After Round 3: 6-1

The oddsmakers made a mistake putting the hottest team at these egregious odds & it would not be beyond the league to keep their investors afloat. The fix was in tonight, even when they didn’t need it; the officiating was so bad this series that you could take them to court & get the jury to clearly see a conspiracy to fix the game. From rumors of extending to up ad revenue, to openly befriending oddsmakers, Silver’s league looks more corrupt than Stern’s “we cleared Tim” years.

>>149376459
Thunder didn’t have any issues with injuries. Skill issue.

Please fuck my ass

>>149376464
>he also takes the 2nd hardest shots in the game frequently (mid fades)
Jordan only did that during the second threepeat, nephew. He developed his midrange game after his athleticism started wanning.

THIS ONE IS FOR DARIUS BAZLEY

thoughts?

Halibitch!

>>149376520
Haliburton would have been the worst "best" player on a championship team in NBA history, perhaps. So no, your whataboutism doesn't work here. SGA is very good, the only player in the world better than him is Jokic, he's just a sign that the NBA kinda sucks rn.

>>149376527
Hard to get injured when the refs call light touches as fouls when you're trying to play defense

>>149376543
Kek even they know.

The best regular season team won. Can't cheat the game like the Pacers tried to do

>>149376539

>>149376543
The only way to settle this is an OKC v Boston championship. We only need every hood player in the west and east injured to make it happen...

>>149376543
Celtics have 5 championships and Lakers have 12 championships.

Odds mean nothing without knowing the amount bet

>>149376466
>But generationally great players show up in the biggest moments, and he kinda doesn't
This was his first deep playoff run and he was getting double and tripled teamed every game
> I guess the takeaway is that the Thunder as a team are really fucking good.
Who else on the team do think was stepping up in big moments? They all played like shit, but they got the job done

SGA isn't like Lebron, or Jordan, or Giannis, or Jokic. He has no insane natural talent or athleticism to carry him, just hard work, practice, and experience. This was his first deep playoff run, and he'll only get better from here on.

>>149376547
What I'm saying is I keep hearing people yap about how Haliburton shows up but SGA played better than him in every facet and you're saying he disappeared. Not even an SGA/Thunder fan I just want people to be objective about what they're seeing instead of getting caught up in the emotion and excitement of game winners and comebacks, which has blinded people to what Haliburton actually is and isn't.

>>149376186
>muh ratings
Fuck you faggot

>>149376527
So the finals was decided not by skill, but by injury resistance. Wow, how cool. Way worth it to spend billions on this league.

>>149376592
He's nothing without the refs.

>>149376648
Even worse, in a time where the average player needs their dick sucked to go play defense, the league says fuck your defense and refballs sga into a title. They're right for not playing defense these days, it's a joke.
