2019-20 NBA Regular Degular Season thread

His ft% is in the tank tho

hes a bad shooter

lmao russ demanding a measurement on the levelness of the rim suspecting the halftime tramp dunkers fucked it up, it was fine

lou william mad

Not so sweet lou

Russ been hot

Wonder if the ref mafia got together to team up against harden his FTA are down since the finals rox filed that formal complaint

i think they did something but it wasnt cause of the complaint its cause he was playing them

im sorry james harden shooting is unreal

game is heated!

Kawhis 4th q that game was really rough. Bad defense, bad shot selection, bad turnovers

Lagoon’s troll post in here about Lebron being better than Giannis last night is unacceptable

yeah I raised an eyebrow at that too

all things equal and you had to win a game today, who would you pick ?

giannis

It’s not like Lebron is some god of clutchness. One guy is clearly better at basketball rn

giannis has been better since last year

clutchness is first of all a matter of not choking. once you've taken care of that vital aspect, you're only as good as you are when you play up to your own level.

i think u cld make a case for any of giannis davis or bron being best

poll

i think u cld make a poll for any of giannis davis or bron being best

there's prob a case for harden too but i do not want to hear it

not sure I fully understand the mavs

same

they dont make sense

all things equal and you had to win a game today, who would you pick ?

lebron since leaving miami has always made this question particularly complicated bcuz his playoff level and regular season level are not the same. anyone saying they would take giannis over lebron in a finals game 7 where they had anything legitimate wagered is lying to themselves.

my only explanation for the mavs is that when rick carlisle is trying there's no coach i trust more to take a bunch of randos and turn them into a functional team.

yeah hes very good at that, feel the last 4 years the mavs started out like 5-20 and ended up making the playoffs

p much how i feel

as i noted before, the mavs are only moderately better with luka on court than with him off, since the start of the season

Brett Brown: "I feel like our competitive spirit has taken a dent because of our inability to score."

— Derek Bodner (@DerekBodnerNBA) December 21, 2019

who could've foreseen upending your own team to play 2 centers at once being a bad idea

they're doing better than i expected for their roster

....3 centers at once

philly shd mb consider making some trades

ah yes, the dreaded inability to score

Brett Brown says Philadelphia’s issues with the zone have crept into the team’s head, and has “dented” the team’s collective spirit.

"the zone.....is fucking w our heads" --coach brett

if only there was a person who could help them solve the zone....a "coach," if you will

we needed this, the world needed it, ja u let us down

damn koc has had enough

Sad to see Ben Simmons turn into Jahlil Okafor crossed with Michael Carter-Williams in the fourth quarter.

Sixers fans should be furious about his lack of offensive development. Simmons is still a cowardly shooter, a half-court liability and a detriment to Philly's playoff odds.

ben simmons needs to play center! im sorry but its true!!!!!!

i think he can get away with playing power forward

as i noted before, the mavs are only moderately better with luka on court than with him off, since the start of the season

In fact Doncic is the only starter with a positive on/off. Their bench players just seem better. Curry>hardaway, Brunson> finney-smith etc

yeah its not saying anything about doncic really, their offensive rating still goes way up in his on minutes, just that the team still plays above average without him

yeah theyre playing better guys in non luka minutes because of style of play overlaps

as i noted before, the mavs are only moderately better with luka on court than with him off, since the start of the season

Numbers may have been distorted by porzingis being so bad at first
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, December 21, 2019 10:31 AM (one hour ago)

this has been my exact thought. and their bench has been shockingly good

raw on-off numbers are worse than useless in general

Perk has the answers for the 76ers

76ers dropped the Ball with The Tobias Harris deal. Philly needs to add more scoring and it’s some good Vets out there like Jamal Crawford and JR Smith!!!

lol

that famous player who scores more than tobias harris, jr smith
