2021-22 NBA "REGULAR" SEASON THREAD

i would be curious to find out if the nets could have had thybuille and asked for curry instead and daryl said yes, or if the daryl wouldn't trade thybuille and offered up curry instead

i do think both times he's been traded it's because he's had value -- the mavs blew that trade but i do think they thought they were trading a good player from a strength on their team (shooting) in order to address a weakness (defense). i thought it was a pretty fair trade at the time, which it definitely wasn't. and in the eixers-nets trade i think he was definitely in there because he has value.

i think he's just in that perfect zone where he's definitely good but you'd never say he was untouchable, and his contract wouldn't be an obstacle for any team in the league

He fits on every team tho.

well like, yes and no. just about every team could find a roster spot for him, but the fits where he's going to start and close and make that type of money are what i'm talking about.

*whispering* embiid looks tired or like he's given up

damn seth is on one tonight lol

seth looks great tonight on a team where no ball handling is required of him

irving-curry is not an ideal backcourt defensively, pretty nice on offense tho

yeah. sixers don't have anyone who can punish them w/ harden in sleep mode

sixers going out like total punks in the second half it must be said

yeah this game has frankly been a huge disappointment

it has. but it also hasn't

simmons wearing a louis vuitton hockey sweater thats actually just a normal sweater very strange garment

def the type of thing you wear if you refer to yourself as a savage

simmo the sweater

Sweater is like $1300. My wife and I saw someone wearing one in Wburg a couple weeks ago.

reasonable price for a very cool sweater

FG through three

BK 42-68
PHI 19-67

the shot making in the game has def been completely wacky

xp That seems bad.

kyrie getting run w/ the back ups in a 30 point game cuz he can only play 4 more times this season lol

harden 3-17 11pts

lil baby, meek mill, and travis scott were sitting courtside with michael rubin tonight you do love to see it

two of the three guys harden stayed all up with in the studio...

it's hilarious that people still take harden seriously

he had to see what they were gonna say next !

i mean you gotta

What’s going on w Blake griffin?

i think he just fell out of the rotation

Knees must be cooked. He was kinda important for them like 18 months ago

yeah he had a little bit left last year

he was pretty good in the Bucks playoff series

he was easily their best defender on giannis. i wonder if he gets broken out again in the odds if the match up calls for it

James Harden finished 0-for-10 on 2-pointers against the Nets.

He is the 2nd player this season to go 0-for-10 on 2-pointers in a single game.

Doc Rivers: “We succumbed to their physicality tonight.”

i too hate to get smacked with a pillow

we all eventually succumb to the nets physicality

btw not sure i'm loving that quote if i'm large physical boy joel embiid

btw joel took 19 fts in the 1st half and 19 in the game

he took a look at halftime and made a business decision

yeah. i’m sure he saw the writing on the wall so i won’t hate on him too hard but he wanted no part of that game in the second half. i think his first three shots were threes, he didn’t go anywhere near the rim, took no FTs, and let the nets slice to the rim repeatedly before it really got out of hand

lol cmon

Kyrie: “If you come at Ben, you come at us.”

lmaooooo. he never disappoints

if you come at ben, you come at us (unless you mean me specifically, at home games, where i am still ineligible to play)

we all eventually succumb to the nets physicality

i too hate to get smacked with a pillow

Really solid game from looney on Jokic. Looney just turned 26 but plays like and moves like a 35 year old vet.

my god is he really 26

Really solid game from looney on Jokic.

basically the only way to slow jokic down is to do things that might get you an assault charge if it were on the street and hope the refs have an off game

If only Jokic got foul calls like Embiid and Giannis did… Guy has a 4 inch gash on his neck and hasn’t got 1 call the whole 4th quarter #JokicMVP pic.twitter.com/KTpRosbLdN

Not unlike curry!

I’d feel more for Jokic if he wasn’t a total bully-baller. I thought Looney was fantastic.
