With a few exceptions, all bicep team right there.

well never know how cory maggette did it

one of the worst players to watch ever, i had to cheer for him a couple of years and i hate watched every second

from a truly dark era of the nba

shout out to the darius miles/quentin richardson clippers, i don't think of them enough

Tonight, Jalen Brunson will become the first #Knicks point guard to start on opening night in two consecutive seasons since Chris Duhon in 2008-09

the grizzlies are 0-3 but have a SRS (simple rating system, on basketball-reference) of +8.23, 5th in the league

also: everyone’s favorite game, 2024 edition

ben simmons: 7 field goals, 5 turnovers

University of Michigan unsurprisingly the worst team in the NBA

tbf it is kind of surprising that theyre in the nba

wolves best defense means gobert has figured it out. but... whats their small ball lineup to compete with the best smallball lineups in the west?

– 76ers surprisingly solid amidst turmoil.
– warriors defense top 5? if that remains, even in the top 10, they are real contenders
– why are the pacers so bad on D right now?
– bucks / suns... contenders or pretenders?
– we're getting closer to a bulls firesale

the wizards may end up being the least serious team ever constructed

having kuzma and poole as yr best players is just too much lmao

its perfect

they should change the name to the washington clowns, in honor of all the clowns in washington (congress)

wow you nailed it

someone had to say it

or just left them as the bullets

– why are the pacers so bad on D right now?

they are starting two negative defenders (obi toppin and mathurin) and a zero (haliburton).

bruce and myles not enough to get it above the bottom of the league tho huh.

mathurin is thought to have defensive potential right?

i’m surprised jarace walker just isn’t playing for them. i thought he looked pretty good in summer league. they’re really that invested in jalen smith?

yeah its just not enough. myles is snowed under at the rim

mathurin is a great athlete and quite strong. he is a better defender this year and i expect he will continue to improve. but he still has issues with defending in a scheme and losing focus. hopefully he will be defending at an acceptable level next season.

the pacers dont really care about jalen smith, its just that jarace is not ready for the nba game. he is a project and i am a bit concerned... hopefully he has a better career than uh justise winslow

jalen smith has been very good this season fwiw

Chris Paul with the Warriors:
54 assists, 6 turnovers

— Jeremias Engelmann (@JerryEngelmann) November 4, 2023

He’s been so good and he hasn’t shot well at all

dominayton

Deandre Ayton is leading the league in both rebound rate and defensive win shares, and he ranks second in RPG, third in steal rate, fifth in defensive BPM, and 13th in overall win shares. The Blazers have won three straight. #RipCity pic.twitter.com/tRkFLueik8

Huh

doing work around the basket i guess

he’s looked really good tbh

He’s had stretches before. I’m not buying it’s gonna be consistent

Maybe they have him on a minutes restriction (from gaming)?

he ranks second in RPG

wonder what RPG he plays? maybe if they put him on more of a minutes restriction he can get to first place

lol

incredible (cry-laughing bc hes on my fantasy team)

8 hawks averaging double digits ppg

Ben Simmons with 2 points and 15 rebounds, that's pretty much unfathomable to me

rodman line

Cam Thomas 45 points continues to be a very weird player

absolute trash player who can really score the ball, classic type of guy

he’ll prob be pretty great in like 5 years when he gets a bit older if he accepts a jordan clarkson type role for some team. guys who can score like that will always have jobs if they just accept that 6th man scoring bench role and don’t make people’s lives miserable because they think they’re secretly the best player on the team
