how many point guards can you definitively say are better than him now? steph might be the only one, honestly. dame and cp3 are probably still better but you couldn’t just dismiss the idea of ja being better out of hand the way you could last season. given the age disparity he may well be passing them up right now. you could argue trae, could maybe argue jrue holiday if you’re thinking about putting a title team together. i don’t consider luka a PG. it’s a very very short, possibly minuscule, list
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 5 January 2022 02:40 (two years ago) link
he is absolutely balling the fuck out before our very eyes
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 02:42 (two years ago) link
although i think he should be docked for making that all we can do now is pray post when he wasnt even that injured
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 02:43 (two years ago) link
nothing to add, ja is amazing
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 02:50 (two years ago) link
Ja is probably the greatest show in the league
― Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 02:57 (two years ago) link
in terms of pure entertainment value it might be steph and him
i think the only question w/ ja is how real the shooting is. if he's actually anywhere near the 40% he's shooting from 3 this season then it's lights out given his quickness and finishing. i saw on TV tonight that he's shooting 63% from three since coming back from injury. so i guess we have to see where the level is bcuz obv that is unsustainable to some degree
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 5 January 2022 03:21 (two years ago) link
yeah i doubt hes nearly a 40% shooter yet but it does seem like hes improving
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 03:26 (two years ago) link
his FT shooting has improved a bit from last year but is still only at 76%
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 5 January 2022 03:29 (two years ago) link
he might never be a knock down guy, prob more important to get to that place where teams at least need to respect his shot, cant really consider playing off him
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 03:33 (two years ago) link
tho i would recommend becoming a knock down guy its better
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 03:38 (two years ago) link
Dudes a gamer too he plays best in big games and in big moments. Also attacks the rim in crunch time and doesn’t just hunt step backs or whatever. The three p thing he seems to hit them when it matters. But yah if he’s 40% for real then he could become an all time great
― Spottie, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 03:42 (two years ago) link
yeah his ability to get to the rim in crunch time is crazy who else does that
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 03:44 (two years ago) link
Other cool thing about mem is how bane has turned into the perfect complimentary back court mate
― Spottie, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 03:50 (two years ago) link
Some of these players need to be reprogram
Can you imagine what my coaching face looks like watching this play unfold? Reply with a good gif. pic.twitter.com/68tpGNSfz7— BBALLBREAKDOWN (@bballbreakdown) January 5, 2022

lmao what the hell
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 03:55 (two years ago) link
Watched that play not having any context and thought surely they were down three with like 5 seconds left but then I checked true time lol.

Maybe he knew he's pure crap at attacking the rim when there's a defender within three feet of him.Ever think of that?

man the kings are just a complete horror show on defense. the entire roster needs to be started over
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 5 January 2022 05:42 (two years ago) link
Kings just in a constant sad state of being stuck as a 30 win team every year for eternity
― Spottie, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 05:47 (two years ago) link
had the fox-halliburton-hield-barnes line up out there in crunch time and it looked like the lakers could’ve scored 30 possessions in a row if they wanted to
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 5 January 2022 06:10 (two years ago) link
the fox-halliburton backcourt doesn’t seem long for this world. or shouldn’t be, anyway
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 5 January 2022 06:17 (two years ago) link
yeah if the kings were smart theyd try to get simmons for fox and something else
― class project pat (m bison), Wednesday, 5 January 2022 15:30 (two years ago) link
yeah that has been the most obvious one all along
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 15:47 (two years ago) link
is someone going to step up with a better offer than just fox, prob not
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 15:48 (two years ago) link
i’m sure fox wants out too but showing up overweight and playing like garbage all season have not helped that cause.
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 15:50 (two years ago) link
I wanted fox for the sixers in that draft, at least when they were at 3.
There better be some unprotected picks coming back in that trade.
― ma dmac's fury road (PBKR), Wednesday, 5 January 2022 16:18 (two years ago) link
if the goal of the simmons trade is to find a better fit with embiid im not sure if another guy who can’t shoot is really the answer
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 5 January 2022 16:32 (two years ago) link
― Spottie, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 16:35 (two years ago) link
yeah someone had that recently—he showed up about 15 lbs overweight at the start of the season.
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 16:56 (two years ago) link
v relatable
― class project pat (m bison), Wednesday, 5 January 2022 17:31 (two years ago) link
all the reports i saw was that he put on muscle and was ripped.
― Spottie, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 17:49 (two years ago) link
yeah and the doctors were like "no no thats too much muscle, youre over the muscle numbers mr. fox :("

― Spottie, Wednesday, 5 January 2022 19:50 (two years ago) link
Yeah fox is huge, I couldn’t tell if he did that for basketball purposes tho

speaking of things that died steph is 1-9 and that one bucket snapped an 0-16 personal shooting run apparently
