RIP only 1 day of rest left and the 2nd Half of Hell starts for the Knicks...

hopefully we can make 1 more trade to bring in a reliable scoring wing to get us into the playoffs

This and Stephen Jackson with the anti-semitism. Makes you think now how much that shit goes in the entire league even though I'm not Jewish...



Haven't really watched Spurs games but I've seen his stats and they're OOF. His offense is down and he's way more horrible on defense now. I know the Lakers want another big and LMA has talked about coming back to POR (they have the 3rd worst defense btw) but I don't know if he's the type of big they want. They could trade him as Woj just reported.

the problem with Aldrige at this point is that he's too old and also has too big of a contract to trade, he was fine for them the past 4-5 years at the least and Spurs fans for the most part still appreciate what he did for them during the Kawhi debacle.

He'll probably be a good big man off the bench for whatever team he goes to, whether it be Portland or somewhere else

we got robbed against the Nets today thanks to Scott Foster :kriwhat:
Scott Foster made sure y’all didn’t win. Tho the refs in general have been wilding out throughout the league with the technicals and ejections. They’ve gone from calling technicals on dudes for saying “and-one“ (literally a routine thing lol) to ejecting them for simply contesting a foul call. Its been a mess.

it is what it is now unfortunately, for the Knicks though we desperately need to trade for a bonafide scorer if we want to stay in the playoff race. As it stands now (with Rose still out X_X), Randle and RJ are extremely gassed in the 4th quarter and we have 0 offense in the final minutes. Hoping Leon Rose can do his magic soon...

Late but I was gonna say... Man, was he pissed! Lol

It's HARD seeing Harden (heh) on another team. Happy that he's getting all the love now that he didn't have in HOU (just don't remind me about his departure).

Haven't had the chance to watch that game yet but I heard about the stuff at the end (along with Doc's tactics in the game lol).


@Haoshoku @RobertoTheOharaSurvivor @Nidai_Kitetsu @ZenZu Now that LeBron and Embiid are out for a bit, who do y'all think is the MVP right now that's playing? Dame? Jokic? Luka?

Doc didn't do anything in that game actually, we got called for a loose ball foul at the end on Randle instead of going to the FT after Shake Milton missed, and we lost after Tobias Harris hit 2 FTs

In Sixerland, his playcalling left something to be desired in terms of how he was using Tobias on offense. Now I've seen that every game in close situations and it worked out well but when they're struggling for buckets, he might want to switch the offense up to get him more open looks.
 

ZenZu

The only one who can beat me is me

Dame, no CJ and they're 8 games above .500

People would want to vote Dame because of narrative. But it will not be easy for him as his team is currently 6th. I think it only happened twice in the history of NBA where anybody below 5th seed won the MVP. Russ was the last one, but lets be honest, his case was really exceptional. The triple double was definitely a big factor. But more important was people wanted to punish KD, and showing love to Russ was probably the next best thing they could do. Dame will get love from the voters, but not upto that level. Right now, Harden is my bet.

True. Forgot to mention Harden. I just don't know how much will his exit from HOU ruin his MVP chances. I also forgot to mention Giannis as well. His team could still have the best record in the East and he's putting up his usual numbers once again but I don't know much the MVP fatigue will factor in since he's won it back to back (I'd assume it would be a lot).
