tim hardaway
manute bol in his 3 pt shooting phase

manute bol was mesmerizing

early tim hardaway kind of broke the mold for an AI

chris mullen was great to watch

now i would love to say that i love to watch lebron because he always does something amazing but but im not sure if its his shitty ill-matched teams fault or his shitty ill-matched teams fault and his fault but wtf all that standing around surveying the defense walking the ball up the court drives me bonkers - someone get this man the ball on the move in the open court off a screen rolling to the hoop something plz fuck

im really starting to warm to the charms of rondo - he still makes me cringe way too much - but kid gets major points for originality

i agree with you on lebron, that offense is so ugly and tentative no wonder their best option is to have bron blow through the lane like a bull, which is ugly itself most of the time. also re: kobe v. lebron aimless is smoking crack.

wtf @ von wafer mention?! lol!
dude was like a.i.'s little brother on the nuggs--first off the bench for a chest bump @ tv timeout--but he'd always get the yips in garbage time and clang jumpers.
consistently kills the d-league, though

birdman was all around denver the last two years til he just got signed by n.o. great dude, loves to talk about himself to anyone. if you yell 'birdman!' at him, he will turn and do the hand symbol any place any time guaranteed

i think it was coke not meth but then again look at him...

yah i guessed meth because i read that he grew up in a family of hardcore bikers

kobe
lebron
wade
AI
Nash
PAUL
Deron
Monta
Artest

also pointing toward meth: happened in oklahoma city

appropriate revive

Spud would make for a great middle name

wade
cp3
lebron
james harden
danilo gallinari
kenneth faried
tony allen
dirk
nash
rondo

that's a good list

feel like it's a little heavy on stars but if i'm being honest those are my guys

ha the lists from 4 years ago are outdated

ty lawson

dragic

my list from high school would be pretty lol - baron, peja, melo, iverson

etc

there's probably a good "what ballets from history do u wish u could have watched on the reg" thread to be made someday. like I'd kill to have been a Walt Frazier stan. would love to have seen George Gervin dominate for weeks at a time.

Ballets = ballers.

Gallinari
Pekovic
Biyombo
Josh Smith
Zach Randolph
Marc Gasol

z-bo's rainbow jumpers where his ass is like 16 inches off the ground are my lifeblood

Scalabrine

Ricky Rubio

jokic
giannis
luka
pascal siakam
kyrie
embiid
curry

good list

mine from last season was:

non warriors edition:

Covington
Jokic
Giannis (kinda feels like this one goes w/out saying at this point)
Embiid
Simmons
Booker
TJ Warren
Taytum/Jaylen

for this seasons holdovers I'd go:

Covington
Jokic
Giannis
Embiid

and then add:

Montrezl (classic hustle guy)
Sabonis (love a big that can dish)
De'aron Fox (push push push)
Shai GA (love how calmly and in control he plays)
Luka (fun to see all the ways he can create_

montrezl is playing like crazy this year not sure what go into him, he does really skilled powerful moves as the roll man on the reg now

curry
kyrie
boban
giannis
embiid
montrezl
javale

brow is amazing to just watch move even if hes not doing a cool basketball thing

kyrie curry dame/cj

giannis and kawhi have this horrifying force of nature thing going where you want to look away but cant

Haven't watched Brow yet this year. It felt like coming into this season he was the frontrunner for MVP but the Pels aren't looking too hot yet. Has Jokic fully taken over in that race?

I think jokic is a little further down in the power rankings now. feel like the consensus contenders at this point are giannis/embiid/brow/kawhi/bron/curry

brow is putting up super mvp numbers but yeah maybe not quite super enough to get it on a 500 team, tho i think that —needs to be a winner— conventional wisdom has shifted somewhat, dont see them giving it to jokic as generally a player has to be an established superstar for a least a year to be admitted as a finalist, giannis prob the front runner now

i think the pels record hurts brow for sure. everyone says that roster is a dumpster fire but i think they have some good players, the top 5 at least. the elfrid payton injury hurt them quite a bit which is weird.

jokic has too many weird games still.

funnny harden isnt even mentioned but he's putting up m/l identical numbers as last year.

curry
kyrie
boban
giannis
embiid
montrezl
javale

boban is must watch when he's on the court, for sure. its just not very often.

harden's turnovers are up a again this year and the team's record is hurting him, but I bet he'll be in the conversation in a couple of months

boban is legit fascinating such amazing touch around the basket plus he can dunk w/o jumping

This is a GORGEOUS move by Domantas Sabonis 😍 pic.twitter.com/3nm8IqINfZ

stuntin like his daddy

pretty much doing stuff like this every game at this point
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyIMucuKryA

cool player

2:11 where he simple crosses Dunn then finishes with an offhand floater...

I stopped watching at a certain point but he was torching the Bulls. Dunn is a good defender but 1st game back so doesn't have his legs. Fox still v impressive tho.

Yeah Dunn very clearly testing his limits in those clips

if fox shooting so far is real well gdamn

In his most fun shot of the night, Nikola Jokic worked his magic making a one-handed, back-handed layup looking up over the back of his head at the basket.#Nuggets #MileHighBasketball pic.twitter.com/Dfr04CxAUb
