Man, they are so lucky. @Brix Are you a tank commander now that your team is done kicking all our asses? :josad:





I'm still in the bandwagon that he'll be better than Luka, who's averaging a near-TD in his second season and Zion has had injury problems in his 1st season. :believe:

I'm 50/50, cause I see Doncic reaching Larry Bird status.

Zion will become a superstar, no doubt he will be dominant seeing his physique.
Zion's body is like a double edged sword.
He better have durable bones & cartilages cause he is bulit like a Rhino.

This season sucks bad, shit is so depressing to watch. We're cursed bro. I want the splash bros to rest for the whole season. We not gone make the playoffs. But it's okay, we getting that #1 pick.

:feelscryingman:

I'm rooting for the Clippers to win it all coz love me some Kahwi and bucket Lou. But if it's Rockets vs Lakers in WCF. I'm definitely rooting for y'all coz Fuck AD and Bron.

Oh! I have no doubt he'll be close, or even reach to Larry Legend status. He's also got that swagger like Larry has and respect from black players. I just see something unknown/different with Zion. His potential is infinite.

Better knock on wood with that 'cause that's the only bad thing that could stop his superstardom. He might be my favorite player in the future so I hope that doesn't happen.

Gotta take @RobertoTheOharaSurvivor old advice and take it with reverse psychology. Maybe your only chance to lead the tank command bro (maybe Wiseman, Edwards or BALL lol)

Thanks. We're trying but Lakers & Clippers are forreal, then you have Sixers and Bucks. Wish it was easy, lol.

I don’t think they’ll go back to be dissapointing in the playoffs again. Siakam played really well in the championship run last season and so did Lowry and Vanvleet. With Siakam even better this season and Annunoby emerging as a solid piece they gonna be good in the playoffs. The Lebronto Craptors era is over :endthis:

I think the GSW staff is incompetent. They don't know how to assemble a good team. It was Mark Jackson who created the championship team.

They ain’t on Sacramento Kings front office level lmao but yeah they messed up this offseason with losing key pieces of tha bench. They got lucky with getting KD too.

Needed a 3 to tie it. Maybe if Thabo threw it further to McLemore once the misdirection happened, there could've been an opening but Clips are too good on D when they're locked in.

Can't get too mad about the game tho considering our circumstances. Got super hyped when Harden hit that 3-pt foul over PG and Bev. Shame he didn't hit the free throw though.

[Wojnarowski] Reporting with @ZachLowe_NBA : NBA’s engaged in serious discussions w/ NBPA and broadcast partners on sweeping, dramatic changes to league calendar that include re-seeding of conference finals, an in-season tournament and a postseason play-in.

[Wojnarowski] Proposals would lower regular season to a minimum of 78 games. Discussions are progressing with hope of bringing a vote to an April meeting of Board of Governors that would introduce some, if not all, of these proposals into the NBA’s 75th anniversary season of 2021-2022.

Wow. This is going to be super different if approved.

Harden just had 60 in 3 quarters...


Not sure why people aren't talking about him as MVP. Fatigue?

Lol, the Hawks announcers got super salty about Harden during the blowout.

Harden = Literally Hitler

Luka would’ve looked up at the scoreboard as soon as the Mavs are up 10 and demanded to be benched in order not to show disrespect! :kappa:

Fatigue for sure, I mean he’s had a strong case for MVP the last what 3 or 4 seasons? Last year he went nuts, but he going even crazier this season. Some voters don’t like his playing style but another MVP candidate in Doncic plays similar to Harden :kayneshrug: voters aint like Harden like that.

also Giannis has gotten better this season so they got more reason not to go for Harden and Siakam lowkey a dark horse candidate if he continues to play like he has.

I predicted LeBron is too old for what he set up to do. He should rest for da playoffs.

Whatchu mean? Lebron ain’t playing like father time has to come him, not yet. He’s still playing like he has played in recent years and he’s been more active defensively this season with AD shouldering some of the load offensively.

So the Jazz just dropped 49 points in a quarter and were still down by 21 points lmfao. NBA this year is wildin with some of these numbers.

Its the era of the 3 ball and soft defense :myman: thats why Harden dropped a good portion of his 60 on Jabari “I don’t get paid to play defense” Parker.

He had not much impact yesterday.

Clippers on da other hand were much more effective against Mavericks.

Lakers are show without substance.

I didnt watch that game yet, but we cant go off one game though to determine what happens for Lebron going forward and from numbers alone, he dropped 25 8 and 9. That’s still a good all around game but I haven’t seen the game yet to judge.

The key to stopping the Mavericks is shutting down Luka’s game (hard to do, but the Clippers got the best perimeter defenders in the game) and daring non-shooters to shoot the Clippers clogged the passing lanes and played Kawhi + Beverly on Luka.

I don’t see what this has to do with Lebron getting old though? You can critize the Lakers defense for not getting the job done on Luka.

U brought up LeBron playing defense, but Mavericks outscored them, unlike Clippers. That's why I said there is no substance to them.

All I was saying is Lebron should do what Leonard does & not play back to back. He ain't a spring chicken anymore, his stamina reserves ain't what it used to. Maybe that way he'll be as effectice as Clippers are. Less reg season wins, but more effective overall.
