2023/24 NBA REGULAR SEASON THREAD "THANKING FOR WEMBANYAMA"

awwwwww spottie

crazy that one of spottie’s sons also plays for the warriors

Bol Bol checking in got louder cheers than Beal got on the starting lineups intro lol

crazy that one of spottie’s sons also plays for the warriors

lol

little spotties

Don’t think Okogies missed a three in any of the 4 dubs suns games this year

always been a sharpshooter

dray, dude…

Unreal

They haven’t shown a replay in the stadium

well that's what happens when you only get 5 games for trying to kill a man

Prob gonna get more games

he kinda just straight up punched him in the face?

yeah it was not good

Reckless Flailing per usual

i think that's how draymond wanted it to come off but in this case it's pretty clear that he aims directly for his face

Yah. Drained all the life out of the building. And all these fouls.

It appears as though he was perfectly balanced and then phantom tripped on absolutely nothing and spun around and put that arm out at just the right height so when it came around it would hit him right in the face

this is kinda like watching a g league game except they put chris paul on one team and bradley beal on the other

damn just saw the clip on Twitter, that's a punch to the face

Having to watch Chris Paul and Eric Gordon on the court at the same time is my worst nightmare

really starting to wonder if he is jeopardizing the post playing media career everyone assumed he would have

Doubt that

A team with curry should not be this lifeless

keep in mind charles barkley threw a civilian through a plate glass window

how does this season turn around for the warriors? where is the help coming from? who is suddenly going to start playing a lot better?

Well klay and Wiggins can’t play worse that’s for sure

Add loon to that too, who looks pretty cooked

seems like when everyone is bad there may be a systemic problem though

this is hysterical

once the warriors started pressing the suns began playing like the lower seed in an NCAA tournament game trying to hold onto an upset

hate for spottie that chris paul had a good game in a loss

He and Saric were solid tonight. Time to bench Wiggins til after the new year.

Dray needs about 20 games for that punch. He's lucky he caught Nurk in the back/side of the head because he might have broken his face if that connected straight on.

the Wiz are leaving DC for Virginia. later assholes

The warriors are a disgrace

never forget just how good Draymond Green was at his peak pic.twitter.com/JJyWC9VeRP

Oh my god that made me laugh so hard I nearly threw up

lmao

I couldn't read that Raptors trade speculation article, but if the Hawks are offering Hunter I'm all for it. I really don't know what it is about him, he's a great defender, reliable 3 pt shooter and only cost 5 mil a year. in fact, here's his last 10:

SPLITS GP MIN FG% 3P% FT% REB AST BLK STL PF TO PTS
L10 9 32.1 45.9 40.4 100.0 5.0 1.1 0.3 0.9 3.1 1.9 17.3

That's pretty great for 5 a year, right? esp with the outstanding defense. i think ultimately what undoes him is that assist stat. he reminds me of John Collins in that when he gets the ball he's basically only good at creating his own offense, which isn't that compelling. he has a really nice mid range game and, while he can get to the bucket, he can't finish through contact very well. i really do want to like him more but i wouldn't be sore about losing him

are we talking about de'andre hunter? he makes a lot more than $5m per year

yeah, i effed that up somehow. 20yr for 4 years

Siakam makes 38. last 10:

SPLITS GP MIN FG% 3P% FT% REB AST BLK STL PF TO PTS
L10 10 35.4 50.3 15.6 78.9 6.3 4.9 0.3 1.0 2.2 2.3 22.3

last 10 maybe not the best metric

“He's more of a cheap shot guy, but he tends to do that to a lot of Europeans. He messing with nothing but foreigners.”

my favorite part of his post game press conference is when he claimed that he doesn't flop

don't know who was the commentator for that game last night but i got a decent lol out of him saying, "i don't think he did it intentionally"

last 10 maybe not the best metric

― lag∞n

yeah, sorry i'm not being very coherent here. Hunter's numbers over the last 10 are pretty good for a 20 mil a year guy is i guess what i'm saying. and despite him going through a nice stretch, the hawks have lost most of those games and he hasn't really effected the game in meaningful ways

Well damn
