2021-22 NBA "REGULAR" SEASON THREAD

i haven't gotten to watch him but stewart's entire rep is being a super high effort competitor so i assume he was doing a lot of physical stuff out there, but you can't just be popping guys in the face

Stewart sprained his ankle pretty bad last game vs the dubs had to be helped off the court I can’t believe he was playing at all. Dude is a tank

I guarantee at least some part of that was due to LeBron seeing that young man with a beautiful head of hair

lol

haa

i find it hard to believe lebron will or should get suspended for longer than jokic. i wouldn’t be surprised if they just fine him a bunch of money

My honest guess is lebron one game and Stewart 3-5 games or however many they need to suspend him so he won’t be in the arena when they play the lakers again on Saturday

I thought this was real for sure

Man!!!! Damn near seen my life flash before it’s eyes🤣🤣🤣🤣. All good tho! Just ain’t no way I step the court with Stew again 👑 👀

very cool *two thumbs up*

The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away

lebron: 🤣🤣🤣🤣

um, nagl. not after slamming his elbow hard into the guy's face and drawing a flow of blood from his both right eye and his mouth.

MPJ needs to pray on this decision

Xp Aimless, that was a parody acct.

I’m sure this is easy to look up, but not sure how. When was the last time Bron was ejected? Ever?

Ok I googled it. This was his second. First 2017

yeah I remember him getting tossed for yelling at a ref in a game they were absolutely dominating. was kind of a big deal at the time. it was weird but I suspect there was some backstory there.

wonder what this was about

from what ive seen hes kinda like a young steven adams where hes just always getting under everyones skin with general hard physical play and bruiser tendancies

if bron meant that elbow to the face as a warning to cease and desist or face painful consequences, I don't think Stewart heard the message

great timing for that michael porter injury

Detroit Pistons center Isaiah Stewart will be suspended two games for his role in the roughhousing with LeBron James on Sunday. James was suspended one game.

James will miss Tuesday's game against the Knicks at MSG. https://t.co/KxrtLDdz2S

TNT game too

lol at roughhousing

roughhousing is a truly magnificent word

couple smart alecks roughhousing just what we need

putting the ghhous in roughhousing

dadgum knuckleheads roughhousing

on saturday i think they should fight for real

each should have to fight a paul brother of their choice and the winner from each fight should have to fight the other paul brother

is stewart a legit psychopath and going to wait until he's on the court to tackle lebron at tip off? is there a line on this outcome as of yet?

Bucks leading by 43 before half

four in a row for the Wolves against mediocre to bad opponents, but beating bad teams isn't nothing for them

Josh giddey looks like he’s gonna be a nice player

great win for the grizz tonight in utah with the jazz playing their full team. 32 for ja, 28 for bane, 26 for JJJ, and a great sequence at the end for him

Awesome

NBA schedule has Lakers vs Pistons and Heat vs Nuggets on back to back nights like it’s a UFC fight card

that rules lol

streaks!

suns have won 13 in a row

rockets have lost 15 in a row

streaks!

love a good streak

the rockets really should not be that bad

i dont think they have a lot of defensive talent but also last night they were just not playing defense, looked like the celtics were running drills out there

beyond jalen green they're playing otherwise decent to above average NBA players. christian wood, kevin porter jr, eric gordon, jae'sean tate, daniel theis are in their top 6 in minutes. 3 or 4 wins should not be that much to ask. silas jr had some of the worst coach body language i've ever seen the other day vs the knicks and they were winning that game well into the fourth quarter

i couldn't discern like a single offensive set they may have run in that game. it just looked like they were running random pick and rolls and then someone would eventually decide to shoot. also 1 out of 4 possessions someone threw the ball out of bounds for no reason. and yet they still could have won!

mike breen kept complaining about how bad the game was

yeah silas seems bad, but maybe hes good... for tanking

wall isnt playing due to tanking considerations and i guess theyre just totally hopeless as far as trading him, but he is traveling with the team and they say hes been a very good citizen, gives him something to do i guess, weird situation, have to think theyll do a buy out next year but then why not buy him out this year, maybe they think they can move him when hes expiring or hell be useful as cap filler in a big deal idk

they just have a buncha young dudes figuring it out with a crap coach. when i watch them they are suuuuuper sloppy and turn it over like every other possession plus no ball movement on the other end. just checked and yep they are dead last in TOs per game + dead last in assists per game
