2022/23 NBA REGULAR SEASON THREAD "TANKING FOR WEMBANYAMA"

I’m just naming former Hawks assistant’s under bud

Tatum + Bench (Brogdon, Hauser, Kornet) entering tonight's game:

60 MIN
124.8 OFF RTG
94.6 DEF RTG
+30.2 NET RTG

That'll only go up after that late first-quarter burst. Those 4 + Derrick White = +8 over 2:28.

this group has been a stroke of genius, it's versatile as hell and most nba benches are going to have a really hard time with it

having brogdon to bring in there is pretty nice

that's been such a good trade for everyone. i'm always happy for the mutual benefit trades.

nuclear half for the celtics

yeah they made the suns look silly

I would give Kenny Atkinson a shot

he seemed good with the nets before kyrie and kd showed up

he was gonna go to the hornets then was like lol nevermind staying in the bay area cos my family loves. that hawks job is way more enticing im sure but doubt he leaves mid-season

celtis up by 39 my lord

wild ending to the jazz dubs game

45 xp

suns emptying the bench with 5mins left in the 3rd

how are the vibes tho

lol idk

atkinson is a good idea… ultimately tho accountably from trae in whatever form is gonna have to come from above the coach

from god

oh no lol

BREAKING: Brittney Griner, the WNBA star who was sentenced to prison in Russia, has been freed in a prisoner-swap and is now in US custody, a US official tells @CBSNews.

Oh man, that's amazing news!

yeah good stuff

She was as much a hostage as any captive of ISIS.

that's awesome, glad they could finally get her home.

in other news, the timberwolves just brought up someone called Matt Ryan and everyone on twitter is making QB jokes. looks like he was on the lakers for a minute?

he hit a very wild buzzer beater this season which will probably be the highlight of his life

These Spurs fans wore "Tank 4 No. 1 Wembanyama" jerseys at a recent game in San Antonio 😂

The Spurs have lost 11 straight games entering tonight.

spurs know when to tank and when not to tank

its fundamental

i remain steadfast in my belief that every team should be tanking

if you win it's really a loss if you think about it

fun nuggets vs blazers game with some big shotmaking at the end of the game

Damn sad I missed that game, 15 lead changes in the 4th, incl 5 in the final 45 seconds! Wonder how common that is.

I also love this - Joker just moving the pieces around to where he needs em to be

Jokic calls for defensive three seconds on Nurk, gets him out of paint, goes to work.https://t.co/lvI3b5u0sd pic.twitter.com/tCZu9FdN1k

lol nurk got worked

dats the mvp baby

i just know the jazz are gonna destroy the timberwolves tonight and i can't take it

messssssy ending in philly

davis and reaves go 3/5 on free throws, 5/5 has them winning the game by 2

lmao philly really attempted an epic collapse but the lakers couldnt hit their fts

reaves is 92% on the year and davis has been 12/12 in the game prior to those last two, you can't make this stuff up

lakers 10-1 run last 34 secs

pretty disappointed ad didnt ice there tbh you dont get to see shit like that every day

the thybulle 3-shot foul on reaves was unconscionable, just fucking hacked his forearm

he was trying to foul up 3 but forgot not to do it while reeves was shooting a 3

yup slight minor detail there

Luka gonna have to score 70 tonight

Absolute hero lol

LMAO ZION DOES NOT CARE

Screw the unwritten rules. This guy is a blast pic.twitter.com/8BXXz7qfXK
