there is no shame in admitting that the giant mountain man with a cold stare and a realistic connection to organized crime is the one you just stay the fuck away from, thats a business decision to keep your life going


i think they play again in a few weeks markieff might test your theory

Spoelstra saying it was a “take foul” lol

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:18 (two years ago) link

Lol jord I know you’re a homer but you don’t have to stan kieff here

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:18 (two years ago) link

by saying he might retaliate? he’s one of the biggest hot heads in the league. he‘s played for the heat for 10 games, he’s just a guy to me

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:20 (two years ago) link

You said he made a play on the ball lol

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:22 (two years ago) link

i said nominally. it was within the flow of the game, jokic was in possession of the ball and morris raked down on him and put his elbow into his ribs. it was a cheap foul but if jokic doesn’t retaliate it a flagrant one and the world keeps spinning

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:24 (two years ago) link

Dude it was dirty as shit. They were getting blown out so he took a shot at jokic’s ribs because he’s a goon

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:25 (two years ago) link

and the response was outsized, jokic has a track record as well. neither of them come out looking good

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:27 (two years ago) link

I also don't want to say morris was *faking* it because I'm sure it hurt, but he definitely deserves some sort of award for the embellishment

mens rea activist (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:34 (two years ago) link

his head snapped back pretty violently

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:36 (two years ago) link

there’s a thirst for violence against markieff morris in this thread but i think we can agree that a 7 ft 280 guy running and throwing his entire body weight into your spine when you’re not expecting it probably hurts

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:36 (two years ago) link

morris has been caught trying to injure ppl a lot of times now, he had it coming 100%

micah, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:41 (two years ago) link

Lakers have an 11 man rotation going tonight

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:44 (two years ago) link

i’m sticking by my theory that terry rozier coming back from injury ruined the hornets

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:54 (two years ago) link

its a good theory

class project pat (m bison), Tuesday, 9 November 2021 05:59 (two years ago) link

so much to dissect in that 4th q at one point there was like 3 simultaneous techs on the lakers and ball got 5 free throws out of it to cut to lead to 5. Russ vintage 4 TOs in the quarter. Game shoulda never gone to OT lol

It's the Final Cluntdiwn (Spottie), Tuesday, 9 November 2021 06:26 (two years ago) link

Melo is seriously on fire this season shooting 48/49/83 splits kudos

It's the Final Cluntdiwn (Spottie), Tuesday, 9 November 2021 06:28 (two years ago) link

this is only going to lead to pain down the road when he turns back into a pumpkin but keeps taking threes like he’s klay thompson the entire season

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 06:36 (two years ago) link

Of course but maybe he can will them to a few more wins until lebron and russ get their hgh cycles going

It's the Final Cluntdiwn (Spottie), Tuesday, 9 November 2021 06:41 (two years ago) link

i like melo and am happy for him

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 06:57 (two years ago) link

Yah glad he was able to extend his career and adjust to a new role

It's the Final Cluntdiwn (Spottie), Tuesday, 9 November 2021 07:24 (two years ago) link

pelicans 1-10

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 07:33 (two years ago) link

nuggs next game is against the pacers. im ok with jokic being suspended then

micah, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 09:03 (two years ago) link

nikola thug life

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 15:40 (two years ago) link

markieff should not have turned his back on that man

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 15:40 (two years ago) link

you can tell markieff is a professional cheap shot artist that foul was much worse than it looked

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 15:42 (two years ago) link

yeah this angle shows how dirty it was

Jokic had every right to respond the way he did. This angle shows it best…

Btw…..Tyler Herro, we know you ain’t gonna do a damn thing 😂 pic.twitter.com/D4G5YqkbN2

Crying at Tyler Herro thinking about stepping up to Jokic then making a business decision and stepping back 😂😂😂😂😂 pic.twitter.com/D5UhAqJpx6

Just got a text from Jokic’s brother. This is their real account responding to Marcus Morris’s tweet last night. https://t.co/ON4AH3JxwN

lmao jokic bros joint account

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 16:58 (two years ago) link

it owns how jokic is the best player in the nba now

ciderpress, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:01 (two years ago) link

it is pretty cool

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:02 (two years ago) link

wild how many good players come from the former yugoslavia, population ~20 million

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:11 (two years ago) link

tho they do have the advantage of being the tallest people in the world

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:11 (two years ago) link

lol that tweet is perfect

It's the Final Cluntdiwn (Spottie), Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:18 (two years ago) link

signing it jokic brothers, very cinematic

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:21 (two years ago) link

rjef is a dork but this is correct analysis

giannis is the best player in the NBA. i’m not sure this is really disputable outside of the criteria of “he already won two MVPs so we’re not gonna vote for him again.” game 6 of the finals was a mere four months ago

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:27 (two years ago) link

guys who are in the mix imo giannis jokic steph luka, subject to daily revision

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:29 (two years ago) link

round out the top five with kd

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:30 (two years ago) link

giannis is also the best player in the nba

ciderpress, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:34 (two years ago) link

that feels right to me lagoon. i’d put giannis a step above everyone until proven otherwise. embiid prob deserves to be in there, and playoff kawhi based on what we saw last year was easily a top 5 player in the league, they likely would’ve made the finals. but hard to judge him rn

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:35 (two years ago) link

kawhi is an enigma, embiid i just dont trust

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:40 (two years ago) link

if they put all the western conference players in a draft pool before this year’s playoffs and you got first pick who would you choose

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:43 (two years ago) link

purely in terms of production so far this season it's jokic and it's not close, though "best player" is def subject to other things like how hard a guy is trying, "pedigree", and so forth, would def put giannis and KD ahead of jokic as of right now though will mention jokic is a proven playoff performer and is starting to develop a real pedigree

assuming perfect health lebron, unfortunately perfect health lebron might not be a thing anymore so it's close between steph and jokic with luka a half tier below

mens rea activist (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:49 (two years ago) link

dont think id take lebron anymore healthy or not

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:51 (two years ago) link

if we are considering health its def a plus in jokics column

lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 November 2021 17:52 (two years ago) link

for the purpose of this exercise assume all players are able to play but not necessarily at “full health” or whatever. like kawhi is ready to play but he is coming off a torn ACL with little training etc
