2021-22 NBA "REGULAR" SEASON THREAD

alec burks has been good, kinda

but yeah, ask not for whom the bing bongs, it bongs for thee

his name drives me crazy, its like mis pluralized, should be alex burke

the knicks roster isn’t much worse & it’s maybe arguably better on paper but they needed several teams in the east to not get any better either and the cavs, wiz & bulls have all passed them by a wide margin. can throw the hornets in there too really

i woke up to discover that keita bates diop was 11-11 for 30 points last night against the lakers who stink what a weird season

thats 100%

brother did he miss any shots?

no, no you’re right, that is what the gods call perfection

lmao

basketball is better when the lakers are bad

otm

i feel like we might be getting the best of both worlds here with them being decidedly mediocre. forgettable lakers teams like the post kobe pre lebron era still are on TV incessantly while being largely uninteresting, now we’re getting good drama and schadenfreude out of a team that we’ll also get to watch get be punked out of the playoffs. i’m thinking also of that lakers team that lost to the mavs in that series where bynum got ejected for body slamming jj barea. that is ideal lakers to me

lakers should trade lebron

bron forcing a trade would be top level

Lebron for John wall and ~8 picks

Gorgui Dieng’s been getting lots of minutes for the Hawks this season and I swear while I’ve seen him hit a bunch of 3s and long 2s I don’t think I’ve ever seen him score In the paint

My wife got me tix to dubs v suns today!

now that’s a hell of a gift right there

whoa rad!

siick

Got myself a keeper indeed

My wife wouldn’t even let me watch the Hawks game at noon. Have fun spottie

turned out she had your best interests at heart really

so your saying they don't come back

wow dude

merry christmas to all my ILH buddies

merry hoopsy xmas!

chris paul is on one

btw guys i watched gremlins last night and i think "yum yum" could be the new "bing bong"

i saw gremlins for the first time last year! better than i expected.

merry xmas guys!

rip clippers

spottie, looks like you went to a great game

merry christmas y’all!

warriors-suns WCF would be pretty great eh

already kinda feeling like kuminga is totally off the table in any potential warriors trades now

Kuminga seems to learn quickly and not hang his head if he gets embarrassed. CP3 got him with a rip thru foul in the first half but Kuminga did a nice job on CP3 in the second half. Already earning his minutes and tons of upside.

Such a great game to be at. Warriors defense is legit. Porter looks like the perfect vet minimum signing. Dubs missing half their roster and still pulling that off on the road with Steph having just an ok game was great to see. Merry Christmas ILH bros! Kuminga is impressive

that's awesome spottie!

happy holidays ilh! hope your favorite team signs the 40 year old retiree of your dreams

every Jason Kidd team feels like they can play smart, physical basketball for 5 minutes per game, then just remain perpetually two steps behind their opponent for the rest of it

that foul on Gay was some bullshit. thought we weren't calling it when one player is actively trying to draw a foul while the other is trying to avoid it anymore

Cool, Spottie! My wife got us tix for a Dubs/Cavs game in January at Chase Center. Can’t wait! They are looking pretty dominating even without a bunch of their best players.

more like james soften

many xps

THE CAVS ARE WINNING BY 40 WITHOUT OSAAC OKORO, MOUNT MOBLEY, OR JARRETT ALLEN PLAYING. TEH BASKETBALL IS GOOD.

thats great but they are playing a literal g league team rn

Draymond out with protocols now. Guess they waited til after the Christmas game to test him?
