2021-22 NBA "REGULAR" SEASON THREAD

Just an all time weird career

phrase i read in the athletic today commented that westbrook is such a weapon but that "his mistakes are so cartoonishly bad" it's difficult to forgive them and that is sort of perfect for me

Incredible game winner

dark shadow version of the dirk one footer

hny my g's

Pop a shot

happy new year ilh!

hny! wishing you all a 2022 of thunderous dunks and frenetic hoisting

I know the Lakers are losing a lot but what Lebron is doing at his age is fucking insane

hope he plays until hes 40 tbh

dont see why not will give him time to get the alltime scoring title too

he can play w bronnie too

going back to cleveland and forcing them to draft his son would be the perfect cap to his career

He’s already proven to be one of the worst GMs in league history so why not.

And yeah he’ll be playing until he’s 40 unless something happens to him like what happened to Kobe with the injury.

going back to cleveland and forcing them to draft his son would be the perfect cap to his career

yeah, is bronny even supposed to be nba-level good? last i checked he was 6'3" and more like a nice d1 prospect. not that that would stop gm lebron, but...

speaking of hilarious nepotism did I mention that the blazers rolled out a late afternoon Friday NYE press release that the very good and beloved coach Chauncey Billups hired a new assistant and it is his brother

the recruiting rankings have bronny as a top 50 player in the 2023 class which def puts him in potential NBA player range but is far from a guarantee that he’ll even be good enough to be drafted at all. given that he’s bron’s son i feel like there’s a 100% chance he at least plays in the G league, some team will bring him into their organization somehow just to get close to bron. but maybe he’ll be good enough to make it onto a roster just off merit

who is the best player in NBA history that had a son play in the NBA who was also legitimately good

Bill Walton probably. maybe Hardaway? though Jr. ain't really someone you want starting

THJ not as good as sr. but hes def starter quality for the last few years, hes a good pick

kenyon martin jr another guy looking like he might stick around in the league

just need to give bronny some growth drugs get him up to 6-6 and hell be good

cant forget the splash brothers too, though that reverses the father/son role we're describing wrt to bron/bronny

xp

just need to give bronny some growth drugs get him up to 6-6 and hell be good

cant forget what the beatles once said 'all u need is drugs' (420 remix)

walton is a good answer. luke was not very good but he did have a 10 year career. hardaway jr and martin jr are prob better (well THJ def is) but their dads prob aren’t even in the conversation for the best 200 NBA players of all time, walton is one of the top 75 players ever and prob top 50 or better all time in terms of talent. dell curry was a nice role player but i’m trying to think of the offspring off freakishly talented players. guys that uniquely good don’t really ever have great basketball playing sons it seems like

happy new year ilh! here’s to great hoops in 2022.

another middling nba father / great son thing would be jellybean and bean

jellybean and meatbean

happy new year to y'all. this reg season is looking pretty rough-edged, but it will all sort itself out in the 'offs.

Arvydas and Domantas Sabonis would be pretty good answer if including Arvydas’ international play

who is the best player in NBA history that had a son play in the NBA who was also legitimately good

Brent Barry in Seattle was an excellent role player, extremely efficient

yeah that’s a good one

good call.

BB would probably be shooting 7-9 threes a game if he played in this era.

arvydas & domantas might be the best father/son combo, or at least the most balanced

Horace Grant / Jerami Grant
Nance / Nance Jr

for consideration

hardaway jr and martin jr are prob better (well THJ def is) but their dads prob aren’t even in the conversation for the best 200 NBA players of all time,

hard disagree on tim hardaway here. pretty easily top 200 and could make an argument for top ~125

horace is jerami’s uncle but it looks like jerami’s dad harvey played in the league and had 3 straight seasons where he put up 18 ppg with 6 or 7 rebounds. was also the 12th overall pick. pretty good pair

lol i thought they were father and son this whole time... bison yellow card me now

lol u r forgiven my son
