alternatively jamal murray comes back 100% and the denver nuggets win the nba playoffs, fulfilling a prophecy
i’ve just been operating under the assumption that kawhi is not going to play at all this year regular season or playoffs but given the state of the west i feel like he needs to seriously think about playing bcuz they could easily make the finals

i can’t remember a year where i had absolutely no read at all on what’s going to happen in the west. has there been a season in the last 20 years where it’s been more wide open? i already feel pretty strongly that the lakers chances of winning the west are minimal but i have no idea at all who i would nominate as the favorite. feels like it could be one of like 6 or 7 teams, very odd

last year was pretty open i thought, but its only gotten more open since

i'm enjoying the weird old Lakers team! I can really care less about them winning the chip this year but it would be cool to see what they look like if at all healthy come the playoffs.

lebron put out "Space Jam: A New Legacy" because he didn't want younger fans calling MJ the MTHCOAT (meanest to his children of all time)

totally agreed about the Lakers, I don't really want them to win but I'll be glued to the TV when they're on during the playoffs

the heat look like they’re playing playoff basketball in terms of effort and connectivity while their opponents are on game 6 of the season. idk how long they can keep it up for but they know how they wanna play and have a lot of unselfish guys. and herro has been going crazy

last year they tried to put him in the starting line up and it messed up his mojo. he's always been destined for the bench microwave role, he just looks more comfortable and confident this year, plus stronger

a portent if you will
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 3 November 2021 00:52 (two years ago) link
also it gets forgotten (understandably so bcuz most ppl don't remember tyler herro rookie season pre bubble) but he added skills in the break between the regular season and bubble that year specifically in terms of pick and roll facilitation and creativity around the rim. he was clearly on a heater in the bubble but also if you had watched him closely his game had grown. last year i think was a classic combo of sophomore slumping + being banged up most of the year + being an annoying white so ppl were eager to make fun of him for not scoring 30 ppg

is herro still doing all of this on jumpers? that's what i wonder about as far as it being sustainable.
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 3 November 2021 01:20 (two years ago) link
a lot of it but he also has perfect shooting form
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 3 November 2021 01:28 (two years ago) link
has good floater touch too
if you hit enough jumpers soon you will get some layups, the golden rule

kyle hit a bunch of pull ups/step backs tonight, if he shoots like that they’re gonna be tough to beat. at other times you can feel the shooting squeeze

his stats haven't been there but apparently he's had a huge impact on their pace when he's on the floor, so probably doing a lot of semi-tangible lowry stuff that makes him so great
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 3 November 2021 03:05 (two years ago) link
yeah for sure shoulda been more specific that his shooting has been ass.
