NBA 2020-21 reg season 1st half thread

sorry no gays in boston

sorry guys I had a seizure last night after I read that inside the NBA is a comedy show that provides valuable insights into current NBA culture because a cop, a john kasich voter, and a guy who doesn’t watch basketball are on it. how has your weekend been?

i pledge to turn off TNT immediately after the late game ends, get into bed, and scroll twitter only reading tweets by bernie sanders voters living in brooklyn who post 8 second video clips with captions like “haven’t seen this head fake from tyrese maxey before”

lol :p

smh jordan brining bernie bros into this, when will our nation begin to heal

Lol Jordan

lmao that call. "Oooh. .... ... OHHhhh!"

lol kembas saying something to him at the end

His career is kinda cool tbf

Looks like Westbrook is completely cooked now

i have to think he has some kind of injury they're not talking about

he dunked on a lot of guys, rip

last 5 years per 30 24 21 21 13

i mean he prob is injured but also thats how it happens for guys like him

i'm shocked there ended up being someone in the NBA more cooked than john wall and the wizards traded for him

classic wizards gotta love it

it was his first game back from his quad injury, he played on restricted minutes, but its not like he couldnt move. he just couldnt do Russ Things and his bag is empty after that.

yeah thats the thing his game relies on running around like a maniac, which is not a behavior that ages well

I’m sure he’ll look a bit better once his hgh cycle kicks in but his days as an impact player are prob over

i'm not sure the blazers spending two #1s on a guy who *totally sucks* was a bright idea

Roco seems to have a slump every season but he may be cooked

Never liked the DJJ signing either tho

roco just.... should not even be on the court most of the time. he's shooting 34%! he can't hold onto the ball! he seemingly has no idea what the offense is doing ever! relatively unengaged on defense too, it's really awful. his eFG is 42%! that's very very bad!

he'll never be more than a role player but at 30 surely hes not cooked

I loved russ as the total package superstar funny outfits chill seeming dude but as a known chris paul stan I'm just watching him continue to be great and outlast the other point guards of his generation and nodding my head

'kevin the chris paul stan' is a picture book that helps kids accept their 'two first name' birthnames.

"kevin the chris paul stan" is 4 first names iirc

There’s so much agonizing about MPJ from the nuggets fan base

Would javale have put up wilt numbers if he played in wilts era lol

Cavs are setting the stage for Lebron to come back again

javale wouldve put up wilt numbers if he was better at basketball

bron ending his career in cleveland does feel like a bron thing to do

I remember when the Cavs picked Sexton and I was like “this is the guy they always draft” but this time it worked!

That turned out to be a pretty amazing draft. 10 of the 14 lottery picks have been very impressive and you can’t really question the team’s decisions on them.

i mean..... maybe. he's putting together a fun season but i would suggest not looking up any advanced numbers on sexton if you want to believe he's been particularly valuable overall as a player

i think the draft where 3 teams passed on luka will go down in history as the questionable decision making draft

cmon hes a third year player who just scored 20 straight points down the stretch of a tight game, he might not be efficient or consistent yet but those are things you can work on, 90% of nba players couldnt score 20 straight regardless how much they worked, i mean theres no guarantee he pans out but he has obvious talent

xp not sure how you're getting to 10......

sexton has been fun! he's not going to be a bust. he obv has moments of crazy, very high level shotmaking. but if he's the best player on your team for an era of like 5 years i'm just not sure if you're ever making the playoffs or winning anything if you get there

who knows! he might be good enough to be best player on playoff team, its in play
