NBA discussion thread

Welp I try to keep the faith for the suns it over nuggets play beautiful basketball it boring to alot but if it getting them to the NBA finals it don't matter lol

 

[Xione]

ad? chill the best center in the league, he has the stats to back it up with little help, jokic is going to make easy work

Well yes you need to see how he translates against the game's best defender who plays the same position as him.

Can't put him over Curry, Giannis, definitively without seeing that. I'm simply speaking from "no questions asked BITW"

 

[GoldDiamond]

Only Steph or Healthy Bron are better

respectfully, lebron is not in the convo for best, not even the best on his own team

it's jokic, embidd, giannias as of this season and last szn

 

[Fuckthis3]

I got Lakers or warriors in 6 or 7 against the nuggets

 

[Xione]

Not really making a conference finals at young age make you one of the greatest all time? Lol Shoutout to trae young I guess

Bro you stated "aren't proven winners" referring to them finding out how it is when they play with their food and will end up getting toasted in the sun in 7 .

You literally can't prove yourself as a more proven winner when you're down 3-1 twice and overcome it both times by overcoming 3 elimination games in a row... TWICE. They simply lost to a the Lakers team who were better and Jokic & Jamal weren't as experienced and as good at that time. They know what it takes and what they gotta do to win.

For 2 years they dealt with injuries where their star players couldn't be available to help Jokic out. They not playing with their food this year, it's pure business and to the point.

Lol is it a really that big deal? You can also say the clippers and Utah choke nuggets was down 3-1 for a reason lol

lakers play to jokic advantage, slow pace

whoever would win that suns/denver series is most likely going to the finals
suns would play to fast pace and high scoring for the lakers

Guess booker didn't learn from luka now the Daddy/son jokes still live on lol

 

[Seven7]

Yeah Im going to go
Nuggets in 7 vs Lakers/Warriors


Davis is too small to guard jokic
same thing happened in 2020 and Howard had to be switched onto him.


Or if Warriors advance,
Poole and Klay are going to brick everything and they cant guard Jokic either.

Still don't matter,
Heat in 7
2023 champs
😤

 

[Fuckthis3]

Chris Paul should finally retire he always hurt cant really push the pace fast anymore and score much only thing I really would like if he retire in my city New Orleans as a pelicans the team that drafted when they was the hornets lol

Your all-time team?

Go crazy go stupid. For the most important rule which shall allow you to go ham, the team will have perfect chemistry so don't worry about putting tough personalities next to each other.

My all-time favorite would be:

PG: Kobe.
SG: Jordan.
SF: LeBron.
PF: Garnett.
C: Shaq.


Note: Kobe is not a PG so if you wanna brag about it imagine that I put Magic or Steph there.

Duncan instead of Garnett

More winning, has won most head-to-head matchups, slightly more longevity, and almost no drama

Congrats @Roo

@Seth
Steph
Jordan
Lebron
Duncan
Shaq

Center is the toughest position to pick. I just think Steph and Shaq on the same team is impossible to defend, i don't think Shaq is the greatest center. I would even put Hakeem as the best, but Kareem was the greatest. Hakeem is a far better defender than Shaq too, and there's already enough offense so...but I just can't pass up the idea of the most dominant perimeter and paint force together.

PF you can't go wrong with either KG or Duncan (Dirk can't defend like them and there's already enough offense).

I was Lakers train since young and KG charmed me as a player always.

I wish we could have a mofo like him in today's game.

To his credit, Booker has played really well except for today which came on a night that KD was off.

Kinda starting to parallel Chuck's time on the Suns

Chuck
Finals Loss in 6 (1993) > Semis Loss in 7 (1994) > Semis Loss in 7 (1995) > 1st Round Loss in 4 (1996) > Traded to Houston

Booker
Finals Loss in 6 (2021) > Semis Loss in 7 (2022) > Semis Loss in 6 (2023) > __?__ (2024)

Last year it was insane.

Now imagine if Golden State somehow manages to win this year.

Durant's legacy would be over.
