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

josh giddey blowing by patrick beverly every time down the floor is a nice subplot to this game

lmao at the crowd chanting "DE-FENSE!" Lakers are like if we could we would

you know Kareem looks pretty good they should let him play for OKC in the 4th

ahhh shit I'm getting emotional

vividly remember the shitty college bar I was sitting at watching the 2003 nba draft with my buddy Adam, being super psyched about bron and darko

congrats 2 lebron

awwww this is cute

hats off to “lebron james”

i love how they just shut the game down, like lets go home now

lmaooooo

he cussed lol

LeFuck

Congratulations to LeBron for breaking the NBA all-time scoring record with 38,388 career points! 🔥👏🏾@KingJames

cant argue

i was looking at lebron's other all-time numbers. forgot he moved into 4th all-time in assists, though i dont think he'll move up that list further unless cp3 retires and brong plays for a few seasons more. just crazy. will almost certainly finish top 30 time in boards, too.

they should put up a counter for "points Kareem needs to retake the lead"

Grats to bron gonna miss him when he’s out of the league

i wonder what the lebron james kid is doing right now

ha crazy

LeBron played for the Heat and is also the all-time leading scorer AGAINST Miami.https://t.co/HYWWNG8CSu

Lmao that dumb drake clip

that was so not the right thing lol

Drake magic and snoop just bizarre choices there.

Of course the lakers lost haha

drake cursed the lakers

Might be the dumbest out of place clip in nba history lmao

lebron just sitting out the final minute of that game is pretty funny

That was weird! They were still in it and he was just… done?

he was just like “hmmm yeah not sure i need to try and come back from 7 points down with 1 min left tonight i’m good”

also westbrook had two disastrously missed lay ups in the final minute that were called as fouls but until the whistle blew my brain just registered them as normal russell westbrook plays

Can’t knock Russ for trying at least lol. Lebron left the game and ad was watching rebounds bounce around unclaimed in front of him too lazy to take a step to grab the ball.

They’re airing the drake clip again on tnt whyyyyy, Candace’s reaction was classic

OKC is a very fun team to watch already and they have like half a real roster

Yah def, interested to see how Chet fits in.

I think bron hurt his ankle toward the end

lebron breaking the record in a game his team gets waxed by OKC would be funny

it was indeed

pretty neat to see all that footage from 2003. I forgot the insane amount of hype he had. people were calling him the next Michael Jordan while he was still in high school. wild that he actually lived up to it

yeah he did it

shut da fucc up!!

lol even Skip Bayless wasn't this annoying about it

wld like to see him get to 40k thats a cooler number

at this rate he'll be at 40k by the end of the 2024 season

I'm gonna sound like a real boomer here but it is kind of a bummer to see all those photos of the final shot and when you look at the crowd like 95% of them are recording it on their phone. like c'mon there's probably never gonna be a single moment in your life where you can't immediately pull up a much better angle of LeBron breaking the scoring record

yeah agreed except for phil knight who just doesnt give a shit

Phil Knight is a legend for this one.

No phone. Just living in the moment. pic.twitter.com/EmBEtS0pSY
