2021-22 NBA "REGULAR" SEASON THREAD

his FT shooting has improved a bit from last year but is still only at 76%

he might never be a knock down guy, prob more important to get to that place where teams at least need to respect his shot, cant really consider playing off him

tho i would recommend becoming a knock down guy its better

Dudes a gamer too he plays best in big games and in big moments. Also attacks the rim in crunch time and doesn’t just hunt step backs or whatever. The three p thing he seems to hit them when it matters. But yah if he’s 40% for real then he could become an all time great

yeah his ability to get to the rim in crunch time is crazy who else does that

Other cool thing about mem is how bane has turned into the perfect complimentary back court mate

Some of these players need to be reprogram

Can you imagine what my coaching face looks like watching this play unfold? Reply with a good gif. pic.twitter.com/68tpGNSfz7

lmao what the hell

Watched that play not having any context and thought surely they were down three with like 5 seconds left but then I checked true time lol.

when you’re trying to grab those achievements in 2k

Maybe he knew he's pure crap at attacking the rim when there's a defender within three feet of him.Ever think of that?

man the kings are just a complete horror show on defense. the entire roster needs to be started over

Kings just in a constant sad state of being stuck as a 30 win team every year for eternity

had the fox-halliburton-hield-barnes line up out there in crunch time and it looked like the lakers could’ve scored 30 possessions in a row if they wanted to

the fox-halliburton backcourt doesn’t seem long for this world. or shouldn’t be, anyway

yeah if the kings were smart theyd try to get simmons for fox and something else

yeah that has been the most obvious one all along

is someone going to step up with a better offer than just fox, prob not

i’m sure fox wants out too but showing up overweight and playing like garbage all season have not helped that cause.

yeah if the kings were smart theyd try to get simmons for fox and something else

I wanted fox for the sixers in that draft, at least when they were at 3.

There better be some unprotected picks coming back in that trade.

if the goal of the simmons trade is to find a better fit with embiid im not sure if another guy who can’t shoot is really the answer

i’m sure fox wants out too but showing up overweight and playing like garbage all season have not helped that cause.

yeah someone had that recently—he showed up about 15 lbs overweight at the start of the season.

v relatable

all the reports i saw was that he put on muscle and was ripped.

yeah and the doctors were like "no no thats too much muscle, youre over the muscle numbers mr. fox :("

normal

Zion Williamson is continuing his right foot rehabilitation away from the team, in Portland.

The Pelicans arranged for transportation out of New Orleans for Williamson, whose status updates are expected in the next few weeks.

ah yes the ol 'next few weeks' we might have an update play

Yeah fox is huge, I couldn’t tell if he did that for basketball purposes tho

What would be a good zion trade

did dirk die or something, what’s with the reverent discourse of late

theyre retiring his jersey

oh ok

his jersey died

rip

wow disrespectful to jerseys to tell them to rip

speaking of things that died steph is 1-9 and that one bucket snapped an 0-16 personal shooting run apparently

can't believe they're burying dirk alive tonight but what an honor

also i would like to personally welcome kyrie irving back to The Game, much respect to a fellow gentleman of the web

he's in the zone

crazy low point total for the dubs tonight but nice win for the mavs. they’re looking better lately

worst loss of the season for warriors. steph slump continues.

great moment at the end of that game with mark cuban jumping up and down like an idiot while his franchise player was writhing on the ground with an ankle injury

haha yeah that was good

dirks jersey retirement is live on nbatv right now

nuggs down 10 to start the 4th, but it’s really more like 20 considering the first 3-4 minutes will be without jokic

actually extremely encouraging 4th quarter. monte looks good for his first game back. jokic was incredible

Kyrie's return being framed as "How will the Nets adjust after his long absence" and "After months of uncertainty, the superstar returns" is fucking cowardly and dumb for a league that continues to deal with a significant proportion of players out due to COVID while this dipshit continues to just ask questions.
