Shai literally saved the league, next year's ratings will be even higher as everyone roots for them to lose.

Apologize.

>>149385463
They won’t, /sp/ eats their word every single fucking time and doubles down

They call me the lamest cuckold in the NBA.

>>149385831
I mean giving up all your young players and picks for a 37 year old does make sense. But the Heat really had nothing to lose since those young players arent super great right now. Unless Ware becomes a star but nobody can see the future yet.

>>149385463
Mr Silver is truly the goat

the way they hatin on okc winning is insane

>>149386088

Whose making the All-Star team in the East next year?

>>149386342
Not Trae Young

For me-- this really settled the FOTL (Face of the League) debate. Jokic brings his kid without any earmuffs to an incredibly loud arena giving him permanent brain damage. Whereas Shai genuinely cares for children and attempts to protect his teammates child (possibly not his). It's rare to see such a great father from such a young man!

LAKERS XIRS CARUSO SAID 2020 IS FAKE

>>149386402
kek based KD

I love Hartenstein’s story, guy was an after thought on the Rockets and Clippers pretty much destined to be out the league then put in work in NYK becoming their best big man finally getting poached by a proper club. He was the best center in the Finals and locked up Jokic who played terrible

So now what? Do you guys wanna have a GOAT debate?

>>149386306
He really hates his family so much. His brother, Rick Bayless, is a famous chef that he never talks to because Skip claims to have taken the brunt of the abuse his dad would give.

>>149386465

>>149386489

>>149386402
KD having to defend himself on twitter full time these days...

>>149386402
Curry’s rings really do have the most value out of the three

>>149386509
MJ was drafted by a competent team, great coach and was playing against no talent scrubs in an iso-ball era.

The league rigged the draft so that Lebron ended up on an incompetent Cavs franchise. He had to team hop to contend in a stacked league and has been dominant over a 20 year career in a league that kept changing the rules.

>>149386596
my goat beat everyone of his contemporaries and even the next gen always being the batman, it was no one else's era

>>149386641
KD ran from his responsibilities to join Curry, like a female.
LeBron begged for help to beat Curry. I dont think a lot of anons here remember the media during that time constantly questioning who else Bron could add to the team (Tristan Thompson and the pick that became Collin Sexton was a popular trade proposition for Deandre Jordan who was an all star then) eventually culminating in them adding guys like Korver, George Hill and Deron Williams

LeBron’s impact is such that these elite veterans took the blame for the Finals losses and never worked again

All this seethe is hilarious. OKC was the better team all season. Is this just mad Boston fags that their so-called "dynasty" never materialized?

>>149386641
this guy is tied with SGA for FMVPs

>>149386641
2015: Kyrie and Love injured
The KD years rings don't count
2022: Nugget's injured, Grizzlies injured, Luka/Brunson Mavs and the Marcus Smart Celtics

Curry's got nothing but Mickey Mouse rings

>>149386700
>Is this just mad Boston fags that their so-called "dynasty" never materialized?
I guess people couldn't be injured every year.

>every ring in the last 5 years has been hospital rings and lucky rings

Yes. The Raptors team of 2019 was one of the greatest ever assembled in the past 20 years, thank you for addressing this point.

Kawhi will never win another ring except on the team he wanted to leave at the first opportunity. Karmas a bitch.

Nice of him to honor David Stern by wearing his rings

it's so over

>>149386793

>>149386798
Dirk robbed himself by being a chokeartist who missed a bunch of open shots to take the lead in the series.

My favorite players ron artest and rasheed wallace and lebron james this nba is gay now lol

Curry has four real rings and LeBron doesn’t even have fucking one

My Raptor have the only rings that matter. Everything else is just seethe and cope.

>>149386857
Raptors dont have a ring

>2025 championship is a *
When are we finally getting a REAL CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM win a REAL RING bros? This whole decade has been nothing but fake hospital rings fr no cap

>this leafjeet seething over 06 again
This guy always loses this debate with me. He just spouts bullshit and runs away when he realizes the battle is lost.

>>149386857
KD and Klay had to go down for the Raptors to win

>>149386815
It wasn't a superteam. The bench was Norris Cole and old dudes.

>>149386884
>Heatspic arrives to defend Wade from fraud allegations
Why didn't want the Suns want your "good young core" for KD? lol

>>149386887
Nobody forced them to get injured lmao that's on them, nice cope. Best team in 20 years. Stay upset, stay mad, stay frustrated.

Where’s that fag that always says Sam Presti is just Sam Hinkie with Silver’s blessing?

>>149386887
No one gives a fuck we raped the number 1 seed

>>149386170
THIS is the state that stole the Supersonics. how weak

>>149386911
Danny Green did in fact force Klay to get injured, but what goes around comes around as he found out

the guys from okc not knowing how to open the champagne bottle is so cute

I rate Dirk higher all-time than that fraud LeXing

>>149386910
>changes the conversation

>>149386570
why doesn't he just hire a professional shill team like lebum does

>>149386910
Not that guy but are you retarded? The Heat declined the Suns offer because they WANTED to include the young core (Highsmith, Jaime, Jovic) in addition to picks
It’s funny how people who dont fundamentally understand the trade are the most vocal about it

>>149386926
Danny Who? That guy who went with Kawhi to play with the bums in LA? lmaooooooo

>>149386912
this was lowkey a great draft

>>149386810
>NY vs. LA
>OKC vs. Indy

I'm surprised the disparity isn't worse.

>>149386912
Knicks could have used Duren even though Thibs would never have played him because of his defense, they are so shit at drafting

>>149386857
based

>>149386912
Dieng was also a Presti pick (knicks were picking for OKC).

He hasn't showed anything and is almost certainly a bust. Doesn't really matter though.

tearing your achlles in gm7 of the fucking finals is just insane what kinda of God would allow that

also the Pacers window got shattered just like that brutal brutwl burtalbrutownruwsorbsjx

>>149386976
2/3 in the lottery is really fucking good, a starter and all star in one draft is unheard of. Warriors did similar with Barnes/Green

Kek jeets do desperately wish they had European dna.

I still think Philly is taking ACE or making someone trade to get him. He has a higher ceiling and fits better, so fit talk outside of BPA is moot

>>149386964
The Duren trade let the Knicks dump Kemba's salary (clearing space to sign Brunson and Hartenstein), and it gave them a future first which was eventually used in the Bridges trade. At the time Duren was redundant with a healthy Robinson (and he still is).

The bigger issue for the Knicks is that they could have had Jalen Williams at 11. But they traded 11 for 3 picks. 1 pick was used in the KAT trade, 1 pick was used in the Bridges trade, and one pick they still have (hasn't conveyed yet and will likely turn into a couple of 2nds).

Unless they were going to pick Williams, this was a great draft for the Knicks. The only players they could have selected with those picks that are good are Nembhard, Kessler, Braun, and maybe Jovic. And the players they traded for (Brunson, Bridges, KAT) are better than those guys.

Braun looksmaxxed???

>>149387180
Heatfans on all platforms WE GONN GETting for the last few years has drawn them some ire

>>149387319
he is not a Morey kind of player to begin with and his reps are making it really clear that he wants to go to a team where he can chuck. Best case scenario is philly trades back

>>149387322
>healthy Robinson

>>149387180

fake stats, jokic was the single best draft pick between 2010 & 2019 & he went in the 2nd round and isn't represented on the chart.

>>149387415
That stat is showing the percentage of time those picks wind up contributing at a high level, not where a percentage of ‘franchise’ players are found

oh never mind you're just fishing for (you)s

>>149386088
Sixers can't win with multiple shitters on max contracts, at least 2 of the 3 max salary players -- embiid, pg, maxey -- have to show signs that they'll be at peak or near-peak form for next year's playoffs. If 2 out of your 3 max contracts aren't even remotely salvageable--especially if Maxey is the only player, at 25yo, capable of getting back on track to a perennial all-star--you might as well take the best player available that you can get your hands on and play him the minutes he wants. If philly can't even be compete in one of the weakest easts ever, why even entertain the idea of keeping this roster together?

>>149387333
I NEED TO SUCK HIS BIG WHITE COCK. INDIANS LIKE ME ARE MADE TO SERVE WHITE DICK.

>>149387480

>>149387480
casual take, TJ has had opportunities similar to Brunson and didn't show processing or jumpshooting abilities capable of carrying a franchise

>>149385912
a lot of players were underage. wtf? of course they're not gonna pop bottles with cameras on them

>Ben Tenzer
>Jon Wallace

When TJ turns out to be a superior replacement then Indy will be able to move Hali before the trade deadline next season and bring in a ringer in time for the yoffs

>Not even a worse Finals than last year lmao
It's pretty close, the Celtics team is just boring or it's a problem with this generation of players having no personalities or signature moves

The first 6 games of this series were all better than watching Kyrie and Luka get humiliated while Tatum and Brown play like ass, as well as watching Jimmy's miracle run come to an end due to injuries against the boring ass Nuggets and Chokic

>>149387841
SGA was the league leading scorer on a 68 win team. In what reality was he not going to win mvp ? And you can't even claim the playoffs when Denver literally got eliminated by OKC

Welp. I'm the laughing stock of the NBA. Nobody is scared of facing my team in the playoffs. I'm a pretty easy elimination to he quite honest.

>>149388059
Chokebitch…

>>149388059
Things will get better Inceltic bro

>>149387999
It's close but it's not worse, Gaytum and SGA have the same signature no-call push off move and still nobody on Boston is as aesthetically pleasing to watch as SGA who is basically an Embiid disciple.

Boston had the easiest run I've ever seen. That's what I'm saying. I haven't seen a run as easy as Boston's since KD Warriors getting all-time refball against Houston only to still get kwabbed by injuries. OKC's ring is soft but absolutely no fucking way is it softer than Boston's last season.

>>149387924

>>149388157
2013 was his most legit ring and it was because Ray Allen bailed him out hard. It also helped that pop went senile at the end of game 6 and took Duncan out of the game so that Bosh could easily grab the rebound.

2016 will always be tainted because Lebeta had to whine like a baby after game 4 then the front office magically assesses another tech on apemond that suspends him for game 5 and Jr Smith also assassinated Bogut's knee.

I knew okc was gonna win but I didn’t foresee it coming from haliburton’s leg exploding. It ended up being so much worse than even a pessimist like me thought it would be. We are living in the absolute most fucked up timeline. What horror awaits us in 2026???

LOL that shit always makes me laugh

The Knicks are spiritual NBA champions and would've won it all had Tyrese Haliburton not sold his soul to the devil to make that shot in Game 1

All the Knicks had to do was not let the Pacers take the mental edge of doing the Reggie Miller choke sign and there was no stopping them.

I'm an OKC fan

>>149388803
What makes you think that the Knicks would have beaten the Thunder? KAT and Brunson both got exposed as defensive liabilities and Thibs got completely outcoached by Carlisle.

>>149388818
OKC didn't have anything they could lord over the Knicks to demoralize them. The Reggie Miller shit was the Pacers' way of telling the Knicks that no matter what they do they'll always be one step ahead of them and it'll never change.
I'm glad the devil came to collect last night. Fuck Tyrese Haliburton and fuck his dad too.

Why do fakers act like Luka is still young when his own compatriots were winning MVPs, chips and DPoYs arround this same age. Lukek is going to be 27 with nothing but some First teams to his name.

If that lacrosse guy can get a warriors contract what is stopping Mac mcclung

So what was /nba/'s favorite series this playoffs?

>>149388882
Pat Spencer has way more aura the Bum McClung. Any retard can jump high due to natural gifts. P Spencer obviously has insane game iq since he's not really an athletic demon

>>149385435 (OP)
>tfw i immediately and without ever wavering said that the mavericks won The Trade
>tfw the point of "tanking" (by choice or by circumstance) is to get the #1 overall pick and the mavericks did that, further solidifying their trade victory, especially since doncic's player option kicks in after the end of next season and the mavericks just got the new face of their franchise as well as one of the best NBA draft prospects in history on a #1 overall rookie deal for 4 years

Apologize to me right now you basketball ignorant faggots. Say you are sorry for being a clueless casual and that you yield to my superior basketball brain.

I am victorious
Nico is victorious
The Dallas Mavericks are victorious

The Dallas Mavericks are picking #1 overall and you can't do shit about it but screech and cry and shit your pants. It's over. Now APOLOGIZE you fucking monkeys.

>>149388901
Cavs vs Pacers, what an absolute fraud check
> First Team All-NBA Bitchell
> DPoY Mobley
> All-Star Garland
> 6thman runner up Jerome
> CotY
> Plus deep roster
All this to get owned by the Gaycers in 5, embarrassing

Nico freaking wonbros

>>149388863
This is basketball, not a video game lol. The Pacers beat the Knicks because they were a better team and not because Reggie Miller's shit talking gave the Knicks a -5 morale nerf

>>149388933
Imagine missing 3 clutch FTs in a row lmao

>>149388959
Flagg with Kyrie to teach him handles and AD to teach him defense is crazy

The hate for okc is just weird :V
They are a great team
>>149388901

>>149389005
Honestly forgot about clippers vs Nuggets but that was a great series. Shame harden didn't show up for g7 as usual lmao

I kneel Nicosama

We gon git Bam

jordan

>>149389025
this nigga is not a real center...........................

>>149388959
Luka won ROTY and was All-NBA first team every year after that. Flagg is just Kevin Love with a NIL deal

>>149389025
>>149389054
6ft 9 PF larping as a center, AD winning a chip in 26

>>149389025
Better be for knecht and change because they need reaves post lediddy

>>149389025
With what? Reeves, Knecht and a pick? Leave it Lakers fans to feel entitled to every good player in the league and expecting to only give up garbage in return.

>>149388394

>>149389127
why
what exactly would you do with it

>>149389103
They got luka for ADisney no shit they think they can get anyone

>>149389025
Heat see Jovic as untouchable what makes you think Bam is tradeable?

>>149389054
>>149389085
He's played powerfoward last half of the season.

>>149389174
Pat Riley would rather let Bam leave in free agency then trade him to the Lakers for next to nothing.

>>149388959
Zero aura in this image.

Wardell's Olympic run saved his career because he is never winning another championship again

the mavs would have won the title

.

>You now remember Mavs wanted Luka to play through his calf injury early in the season

The NBA needs to make a rule where a calf strain is an automatic 5 game medical suspension or some shit

these retards need to be saved from themselves
we just had 2 26 year old star players probably ruin their careers in 2 months

this talk is literally subhuman, actual mass bot

>>149389397
funny how ppl shit all over luka for being fat but when some retard has a weak achilles tendon its not his fault for being too lazy to keep his legs in shape. if luka is fat cause he doesn't exercise enough then why isn't hali at fault for not strengthening his lower legs sufficiently?

Gafford is signing an extension with the mavs. They really are just gonna hope flagg goes nuclear and run it back with the 2024 roster sans kyrie lol

>>149389509
He's right though
The one chance the NBA had to be entertaining again and it's ruined due to a bunch of career altering injuries caused by a retarded schedule
It's all Mickey Mouse free throw competitions in the league from here on out

>>149389619
achilies are largely considered to be wear and tear type of injuries. It's why they used to be considered to be old man injuries

>>149386532

Holy shit lets not do this,

Caruso won the thunder the chip this title win puts him over KD and Kawhi, Giddey just didn't fit, clogged lanes, needed the ball too much, although I'm hearing Giddey wants to desperately join back and even called up old teammates like Jay-Will just to say hi and goodnight

maybe the dumbest tweet I have ever seen

brace yourselves okc, the houston rockets are coming...

>>149389269
>the mavs would have won the title

But they instead opted to win The Trade, procuring the services of the next face of their franchise: a still 18 years old blue chip prospect who is a bona fide 2 way threat who is easily an A on the letter scale offensively AND defensively. Doncic is currently an A+ offensively, but a D+ (generously) on defense. Flagg is also roughly 8 years younger and will be guaranteed on a 4 year rookie deal and almost certainly at least 1 more 4 year deal after that, meaning Flagg will be as old as Doncic CURRENTLY is (only 26) when he is an 8 year veteran.

Furthermore, who gives a shit about OKC's asterisk WHEN THE MAIN REASON IT IS AN ASTERISK IS BECAUSE THE ENTIRE MAVERICKS TEAM WENT ON THE INJURED LIST? The Mavericks were 3-1 against OKC this year, with TWO of those wins WITHOUT DONCIC ANYWAY, and technically NONE with Davis, either. For whatever reason, the Mavericks are a hard counter to OKC. They beat them this year in the regular, either won or drew with them because they rested their starters for their last game against OKC in the regular season since they were the 5 seed no matter what, so they were a lower seed last year when they beat them in 6 WITH AN INJURED DONCIC, WHO IS NOW BEING REPLACED BY A SUPERIOR PROSPECT THAT WILL LEARN OFFENSE FROM IRVING AND DEFENSE FROM DAVIS.

The Dallas Mavericks won The Trade.

It's over.

The time for apologies has come.

>>149390264
>Rockets are coming

They just traded a young star and good defender and 6 draft picks for a 40 year old

They're hope is KD doesn't reinjure himself and consistently scores, and they power through to the finals,

They could've tried to help Jalen fix his scoring inconsistency, oh well, they'll learn soon, I hear Westbrook and Harden may try to rejoin, there goes a good team

>the East is wide open

Wizbros, where we at!?

>>149390187
ain't no party like a giddey party

>>149390410
>the mavs would have won the title

Stop being retarded and spamming, Mavs lost in the play-in to Memphis and AD was more depressed than Heath Ledger

>The Mavericks were 3-1 against OKC this year,
Because they didn't have Chet and Hartenstein throughout those losses and the core was still meshing in together as it was early season, then Cason and Dort began to develop and shooting more,

>>149390604
casting spells and shit

I just shake my head when i see warriors fans begging for a center or "athletic" players, because its like even warriors fans dont understand just how special and exceptional their own team was. Look at this iconic game. The warriors got outrebounded so hard its not even funny and yet they won. Because of their insane switchable defense and movement + Curry shooting.

People dont understand that the cyrrent warriors are full of SIMPLY BAD players, people think making it to the NBA alone is already the mark of an elite player, byt forgey that basketball is deeper than that and ultimately about building off your team to be a synergistic powerhouse and THAT is the true exceptional basketball tool, and no im not talking about basketball "IQ"

The warriors were just too special in too many ways. They didnt cheat the game with overwhelming size and height, they played BASKETBALL with the thought in mind that this is about the ball. Not the player. Its literally in the name.

The answer isnt young guys. It isnt centers. Even the 2022 warriors were never a cheating 7 foot bigs lineup. It's about understanding your team, and the game.

>Imblegassi

Stop being a fag, Thunder beat Dallas's mutual opponent that beat Dallas decisively, by 20+ pts

If Thunder faced Dallas again they would've wrecked them, no guarantee Dallas will keep the Number #1 pick given how retarded Nico is,

Even just as a whole Kyrie wont be back till next year, so that's ALOT of load management on Cooper Flagg as a rookie

I have always liked KD and defended his move to go to the warriors. especially since it meant I got to see lebron get swept in the finals.

>>149391733
You mean swept again in the finals, he already got swept once by the Spurs in 07

>BREAKING: The Boston Celtics have traded Jrue Holiday to the Portland Trail Blazers for Anfernee Simons and two second-round picks, sources tell ESPN.

SHAMS SLAMS

>>149392369
Bro wtf. How do the Celtics and Lakers keep getting valuable players for fucking garbage. Rigged shitass league.

>>149392369
but why????

It’s funny how I’m at work and everywhere I look there’s young couples around me. I reminder that I’ve never had a gf. Thank goddess I have friends.

>>149392369
is this good

>>149392404
cronin is on crack

>>149392390
>Lakers
the amount of talent the Lakers have run though and abandoned is astounding

>>149392369
Great trade for both team blazers get a vet for scoot and Celtics get more help on the offensive end

>>149392369
>simmons will memechuck instead of tatum
needle has not moved

>>149392390
Simons isn't actually valuable which is why they've been trying to trade him for 3 years. He's just another one of those one dimensional ball dominant chucker archetypes that the league is full of but isn't good enough to build a team around

>>149392369
>>149392394
>>149392404
it saves Boston cap and they get picks out of it.

>>149392369
So who will Lakers get next now the Celtics flecced.

>>149392369
>20 PPG scorer and making 10 million less for a washed old star

>>149392444
Jrue is fucking 35 years old, has 3 years left on his contract and is completely washed. They gave up Anfernee and 2 seconds for him?

>skitz was right about cronin being a boston media plant
blunderskitz and weapskitz were right about everything and we laughed at them bros

>>149392453
Gafford would be funny but i think hes staying

>>149392460
usually schizos are right but most people dont see what they see hence why we call the schizos

I told you guys adam silver was gonna pull out all stops to get big market teams trucking again. Expect the Lakers to get Claxton or Walker for pennies in the next few weeks

>>149392459
he's a fucking adult who can mentor the young guys while doing something besides chuck and not play defense. Also frees up PT for other guys. 2nds are worthless to a team like the blazers and in general have diminished value in the NIL era

>>149392369
The Celtics are facing the largest tax bill in league history if they don't shed salary quick. Why the fuck did the Blazers give up picks in this trade?

>>149392488
It'll be interesting seeing who else gets sent off extremely cheap

>>149392488
Small market to big market tax.

Haliburton put out a statement

>>149392514
Nigga I ain't reading all that. That's longer than OKC's victory speech

>>149392522

lol celtics are done

>>149392482
The Blazers are rebuilding. They need those picks to either pan out as bench players or to package for players that actually move the needle. Now they have washed up Jrue Holiday, Ayton and Jerami Grant eating up the majority of their cap space

>>149392522
Truth

>>149392369
>celshits sent jrue back to the blazers and managed to get simons in return

>>149392514
>Meanwhile Tatum

here's my plan for the parade tomorrow:

>take backpack lined with coolbag full of beer
>take camera bag with dslr and good lenses
>try to get to one of the various parking garages that i know i **usually** go to for events (4th of july on top of st. anthony's parking garage is fucking LEGIT, you can see fireworks shows from every town in the metro, all at once, fuckign gnarly.)

but the more i think about this, the more i realize

>my backpack is camo
>a possibly drunk me leaning over the rail of a parking garage with my expensive camera might make me look like a schizo shooter and i would get merc'd by snipers
>the parking garage access probably won't even be available, even the rooftop by foot

am i retard for thinking i could be the smartest guy in the room for walking up a parking garage like i typically do on literally *any* other event in downtown okc? this is different, right? they won't just let me on the roof of a parking garage, will they?

the arts garage (that cool multi colored one) has a tall cage/fence around it, so picture from it are not optimum. BUT it's literally on the parade route, whereas st. athony's will only be near the start. if i knew someone at the art museum, THAT would be a sweet rooftop spot to view the parade.

someone help me out, where is everyone meeting?

>>149392557
The Blazers were the ones giving up the two seconds too.

Kristaps Porzingis, welcome to the ______

>>149392565
and he's the corny one

Salute to Jrue

holy shit I just realized the blazers traded for jrue twice
>traded away dame for jrue
>now traded simons away for jrue

>>149392567
what parade?

>>149392592
The Miami Gay Parade I'm attending

>>149392571
Chicago Bulls...

>>149392585
Crazy thing is I think Jrue has more value than Simons and they can flip him again to a desperate team like the Kangs or Mavs for a first

>>149392459
As a Blazies fan Simons just doesn't play enough defense to outpace his offense and like the other anon said Holiday can mentor Scoot to be a future All Star and help Camara become an All Defensive Player

Sure the Blazers are in cap hell but I think it's a long term move rather than a win now unless they're planning more trades (probably will move RGIII or Ayton maybe? I don't think Grant will be taken by anyone sadly)

>>149392585
technically it was 3 times
he was trade a few days to the celtics for brogdon and pat williams

>>149392121
3/10

Free Jrue out that jam.

>>149392615
Nobody taking old ass jrue for 3 more years with how tight the cap is for some teams

>Kevin Durant is the answer for sure this time! A+ trade!

Scoot and Jrue has to be the worst starting backcourt of all time

Do the Nugs know they can finally start doing some move?

>>149392629
He's not staying in Portland
>>149392634
RJ and Quickley aren't any better

>>149390656
people also don't understand that teams that have insanely good players in their prime (curry played lots of years and just kinda....wasn't great, def wasn't a superstar), all the other shit doesn't even matter.

like teams now THOUGHT that shooting 50 3's a game was a good strat, assuming you could hit 25-30, and if you hit 40% you were going to annihilate anyone.

but what happens when you go 0-27? well, obviously you will lose to anyone. that huge variance turns basketball into more like baseball, where the 3 pt shot becomes like a 3 run homer.

if you get it, you win.
if you don't, you lose.

we actually haven't really seen (last year's boston, yeah okay the league sucked) any team outside of the curry warriors play that way because curry and klay were likely the two best 3 pt shooters in history.

maybe that strategy REALLY only works in the playoffs, when your asshole it tight af, if you have the two best shooters ever. maybe, just maybe, it's more likely teams will go 0-27 than they will 15-27. yeah it's first to 4, but losing ONE game swings a series.

look at how much hali's buzzer beater in game 1 (and aaron gordon too) altered the finals. thunder win in 5 if he doesn't hit that shot, and everyone would say it was a laugher of a series.

thunder showed you don't have to rely on hot shooting from deep if you can perform other worldly in other areas. if you look at OKC's TO differential, it's not just the highest ever, it's like almost double any other team ever. it's a bigger outlier than prime dubs 3 point shooting.

you have to find SOMEHTING you aren't just good at as a team, but literally better than any team ever, so that out of 7 games, you will do that thing at least 4 times.

thunder forced indy into 20 TO's like 4 times. they won 4 games.

>Kevin Durant will save the Nets
>Kevin Durant will save the Suns
>Kevin Durant will save the Rockets

What did the Blazers get out of this trade exactly? What's next, they trade Jrue for Dame?

>>149392565
Why is that fag wearing Lucy Van Pelt's dress?

>>149392634
not even the worst backcourt in the conference

>>149392656

>>149392634
They need Scoot to pan out but he's looking like a complete bust

Flaggbros??

>>149392650
you can use paragraphs here brother

>>149392634
I'd argue the Jazz are worse

>>149392656
they got somebody who knows how to win and finally off of Simons

>>149392647
>Jrue's not staying in Portland
>Grant's not staying in Portland
>Ayton's not staying in Portland
You said this about every member of this misfit toy squad. Portland took on some of the worst salaries in the league with 0 picks to show for it.

>>149392369
Joe Cronin just loves to bend over backwards for the Inceltics. Good little golem.

Absolutely no reason to give up a young scorer AND picks and an old washed man. Are you noticing how compromised these GMs are? Do you see how the Dame trade didn't happen now?

Not that it matters, Gaytum will never be the same and Gaylen is fraudulent. But it's the principle of the thing.

Who is Anfernee Simons player comp? I don’t watch the blazers

>>149392641
Nuggets have no assets.

>>149392656
They already got two 1sts from Boston for him the first go round, now they’ll get at least another 1st from a desperate contender at the trade deadline

>>149392681
Jrue has a worse contract than Simons and is completely washed.

>>149392686
slightly more polished, less athletic Jalen Green

>>149392686
Jordan Poole basically
When he has it on he has it on but he is very streaky

>>149392686

>>149392662
The backcourts that are worse are worse by design. This is a trade you make to compete which makes it 5x worse than anything else

>>149392753
inceltics cope, nothing more nothing less

>>149392753
because smellshits whistle will turn into a 25ppg player

>>149392747
it says
>muh tendon an sheeeiiitt

>>149392753
because the celshits were able to get simons, dump jrue (only thing they traded away) AND get picks in return somehow
also that was as the #1 option, simons as a 3rd or even 4th option would be a premium luxury

Simons is literally just Jordan Poole without the PR because no one's seen him play enough to clown him.

>>149392747
>canadian's cant read
Terrible education system up there man

Anyway it basically says "Don't feel sorry for me, I'm coming back stronger. Thanks to all my fans."

>>149392753
He was the first option on a rebuilding team and putting up numbers. His stats will only go up once he's a third option/6th man and somehow got 2 seconds back for washed up Jrue Holiday

The Kniggs are their own worst enemies. They have all the same revenue and spotlight as the Lakers if not more and they haven't been able to convert that into a ring in half a century. Gotta be one of the worst run franchises in the history of sports. Can you believe that the best the big team from NYC can put on the floor is zesty KAT and a 2nd pick? And then they complain about flyovers in the finals too, they should be embarrassed about teams from tiny markets like Indy & OKC outfoxing them.

https://x.com/ClutchPoints/status/1937236367240757347

thunder didnt 99% of the beer or champagne. Jaylin Williams said he hated the taste after one sip.

>>149392962
give me one good fucking reason as to why I should start drinking beer.

>>149392962
They're probably doing edibles or something. KDs true legacy is representing the players to get silver to make weed okay

>>149392962
beer has always been shit and some champagne is shit

>>149392962
no idea, im a zoomer and drink at least a glass of wine per day

>>149392962
They don't want to be the 1 guy who gets drunk then hazed and raped on the team bus or something

>>149392962
Because its michelob ultra, apparently that beer taste bad.

>>149392978
champagne is very rarely shit but considering what blacks gravitate towards in the wine world i'm not surprised by this take

Apparently the florida panthers drank all the beer during their celebration. it's a zoomer thing.

>>149392962
>they didn't drink the sponsored alcohol and went partying somewhere else instead

>(curry played lots of years and just kinda....wasn't great, def wasn't a superstar),
what the fuck are you talking about retard? he missed 2 seasons because of injury, then came back and started averaging 23ppg right up till his first mvp season. Even im his first 2 rookie seasons before he missed so many games he was almost averaging 19 points. The fuck are you talking about dumbass.

Do you even know how bad the warriors were before this lil nigga took off?
>you have to find SOMEHTING you aren't just good at as a team, but literally better than any team ever, so that out of 7 games, you will do that thing at least 4 times.

Well you missed my point when you started talking bout 3pt shooting since that had nothing to do with why I said the warriors were special. They were never even the highest 3 point taking team in the league during that era.

But i even then, no. OKC's team isnt exceptional in anyway. They are a standard as fuck team with bigmen, and two way players who get to the paint a lot and draw freethrows.
About as boring and shallow as you can get skillwise. But it doesnt matter, because a league where you can back into somebody 3 times to get to the basket, isnt a skill based league anyway.

You just need a stable enough team, where everybody knows their role and can fulfill it. OKC has that because of how inexpensive their team is. Almost every other team is wobbly or lopsided, or flawed in some way.

What made the warriors exceptional, is that they were flawed and lopsided, and despite that, exceptional and revolutionary. There will never be anything like them because the circumstances of what they had to work with, and who they had, were wholly unique. Draymond wasnt even supposed to be a starter initially.

It was lightning in a bottle.

>>149392938
i member people saying he was headed out for a overseas contract lol guess not

>>149392962

>from beyond the grave

>>149393061
Nothing really. It's fine to drink with the bros on occasion but drinking and smoking regularly is life destroying

>>149392962
zoomers killed a lot of time old traditions. not just here but in everywhere else in life. why is this?

>>149393061
nothing at all. Now real drugs will have you feeling like a different person or take your mind through all kinds of shit

>>149393090
too broke and mutted to have traditions

>>149392962
>Gen Z ages 13-28 spend and drink way less alcohol then previous generations , almost 40 % or more less

>>149393090
2nd generation immigrants maybe

>>149393090
a lot of traditions in fact do suck. Beer is definitely one of them, or at least american if I believe euros

>>149393090
was born in 2004. covid is the main reason. when I was in high school they stopped a lot of things due to covid and after covid they just didnt bring them back. same can be applied to most life traditions.

>>149392962
being drunk off your ass means you are going to do stupid shit and say stupid shit, most likely offensive shit.

saying offensive shit literally ruins your entire life now. like these nba players would legit get traded off a championship team if they got drunk and said something taboo. it's literally that simple.

zoomers can't risk getting drunk anymore because someone is always recording. usually it's them.

>>149392962
That locker room party is just a show for the cameras. Take a few sips, splash some champagne around, shout "Whoo! We did it!" and then leave for the club.

>>149393125
>mfw both my parents weren't born in the US but I was
thank the lord america isnt like europe where people like me would have to wait 20 years to get citizenship

>>149393009
What has he said that's wrong tho?

I was thinking back on the nba season and I couldn't remember who won the championship at all lol, had to look it up on Wikipedia. When I saw it was the thunder it did bring back some memories but it's kinda crazy just how forgettable and unimpactful some teams are

>>149393090
because most traditions are retarded.

>>149393127
Same age here. Moreso zoomers are broke and also looks conscious and alcohol fucks your looks. A bunch vape though lmao

>>149393127
>same can be applied to most life traditions.
why the FUCK isnt Walmart open 24/7 anymore

>>149393127
covid was used by companies to cut things that weren't needed, but existed because they did so for years.

I remember Anfernee Simons being a streaky shooter and during a stretch he got dummy hot and some portland fans said he's their next dame. Is he still the same player? Anyways this just means my celshits are doubling down on just taking more 3s as always :)

he played all four years college, missed two years, that's 6 whole years dumbass.

players used to come out of high school. curry will never have counting stats outside of 3 pt because he simply missed out on 5-6 years compared to guys like KD and LeBron (kd even went to college, but not 4 years lmao). everyone knows curry got a "late start" that's not controversial or contrarian.

warriors weren't that bad and they got extremely lucky first ring. literally every team had a PG hurt.

>jrue was hurt for memphis, played 55 minutes
>conley played as much as he could with a broken face, literally had surgery like two days prior, played barely more minutes than an ancient vince fucking carter
>rockets didn't beverley at all, who literally might have just hurt curry or klay like he did westbrook
>cavs didn't have kyrie or klove

once they got that ring in 2015, they should have lost to okc, then DID lose to cavs. they only won again not because they added Kevin Durant, but because Kevin Durant was no longer on a team they had to eventually play against. they didn't need KD, they just needed KD to not be against them lol

curry's only "real" ring is 22. so that puts him with....sga and jdub. cool. yes the goat 3 point shooter, but his defense is god awful and he couldn't hang with either team in the finals this year.

>Well you missed my point when you started talking bout 3pt shooting since that had nothing to do with why I said the warriors were special. They were never even the highest 3 point taking team in the league during that era.

no dumbass YOU missed the point, OF COURSE TEAMS TAKE MORE THAN THE DUBS, DO THEY WIN? no dumbass, that's why i said it only works if you have the best two 3 point shooters ever, curry and klay lol. the entire league thought they could do it too, but we're seeing no one can. it's not about "3 being worth more than 2" it's about how curry and klay were the best ever.

>>149393059
>But i even then, no. OKC's team isnt exceptional in anyway.

lmao bro OKC had a +131 turnover differential for the playoffs. next highest team EVER was the '18 raps with kawhi at +77. okc is literally almost double the previous record. that's....the definition of exceptional you fucking retard.

>what made the warriors exceptional
the 2 best 3 point shooters ever. that's it. lmao wtf are you doing man

>>149393234
>he played all four years college, missed two years, that's 6 whole years dumbass.
Is this guy retarded?

>>149385435 (OP)
WOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>149393268
Call me retarded again and I'll call you the n-word bud

>>149393268
>oh shit i'm sorry he played 3 years of college not 4.

that's still 5 seasons he missed. by that time guys like Kobe, Lebron, KD, etc had insane numbers. i'm talking cumulative career stats here.

>>149393273
Youre a retard. Warriors were the #1 seed in 2015 fucking retard, they werent losing with Conley being in for the grizzlies and a beverley that...averaged a whopping 10 points per game, 0.4 blocks, 1.1 steals, 3.4 assists, 4.2 rebounds, and 42.6% 2P and 35.6 3P

fuck off retard and employ some actualy critical thinking retard.

those same exact warriors that totally would have "lost" to the 2015 cavs, went up 3-1 vs them fully healthy, while they had an injured curry, and were getting refballed out the ass. A series btw where picrel is real

kill yourself retard. Lebron fucking James shouldnt be needing kyrie and love to beat a warriors team that was considered a complete fluke of nobodys at the time, with little playoff experience like you put it.

The warriors were simply the better team, with the better players at the top, and at the low.

>>149393090
They're the first generation raised by the internet

>>149393327
if you think a guy like patrick beverley, in 2015, was impacting the game thru box score counting stats, you are retarded. he's a pestering defender, who as i said, had a non-zero chance of just literally ending the season of curry or klay with a reckless play, as he did to mutiple players.
