2021-22 NBA "REGULAR" SEASON THREAD

Wade is weird because his status as best player was really just one playoff run

dubs call a timeout, follow it up with two turnovers and an airball, griz by 18

griz are good. dubs are due to come back to earth imo. curry has quietly been bad and they’re getting a lot out of guys who haven’t really proven themselves and/or are old

well, they’re playing without draymond tonight

insane behind the back pass on the fast break by steph

love to watch klay thompson hit The Three Point Shot

ball bounces off klays face then hand before going out of bounds with a ref looking on four feet away, dubs ball, klay drains a three, lmao

this is unbelievable!

Ball hits Klay Thompson twice before going out, Zach Zarba (staring at floor) gives it to Warriors pic.twitter.com/GmF0EBW7js

Also I’m pretty sure klay’s toe was on the line on that 3

KG's massively underrated according to that VORP article

not amongst me

minnesota timberwolves where reputations go to die

Minnesota KG feels like a forgotten great. Like people remember the still amazing Celtic, but not the guy who led his team in every single stat for a season. Highest non-Lebron VORP on that list.

recall haralabob saying over the decade or whatever timeframe he had his own statistical system for gambling which involved his people logging every play that kg had the single best season

there's also some version of KG where he comes along like 15-20 years later & decides it's ok to shoot threes & his stat profile looks even more insane

he did shoot threes for one season and it did not go well but maybe he just didnt give it enough chance

KG shooting threes just seems antithetical to KG's spirit

seen ziaire williams finish three oops this game and i have not watched the whole thing

he jumps good

online poll reveals fans think the three and four seeds are the biggest threats to the current top two seeds in the west. color announcer agrees.

probabilistically the best choices!

feel like klay is still being a bit ginger w/ his leaping but it does not look like he has a lot of lift

he should just hoist

I think of KG as having the best footwork of any big other than Hakeem

if i'm playing memphis and it's the end of the game my no 1 priority is doubling ja on the pick and roll and making him pass the ball

wow memphis had never won 10 games in a row in their history lol

10 is a lot

lol memphis

“Whoop that trick” is playing in Memphis as Ja Morant’s dad Tee does a variation of the Sam Cassell dance. What a performance by Morant in Memphis’ 10th straight win.

respect

random but i'm routinely bothered by isiah thomas being the league network's most ubiquitous studio analyst given his direct involvement in a case of workplace sexual harassment that ended in a $10+ million settlement

Grizz are good. Would be cool if curry remembers how to shoot. 3 air balled threes tonight. The third quarter of that game was peak hooping imo

random but i'm routinely bothered by isiah thomas being the league network's most ubiquitous studio analyst given his direct involvement in a case of workplace sexual harassment that ended in a $10+ million settlement

yeah that sucks plus hes got a record of other dubious behavior and his peers hate him

this clippers line up... gross

possibly the least appealing team out there right now. do you like fringey vets and randos? then yes, watch the clippers.

Rumors that kawhi will be able to play this season circled last week. Without him or pg it’s a nasty lineup

yeah was just thinking theee clippers sans their stars are the most nondescript boring team

they’re a team I definitely do not think about

Sources: Wizards’ Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Montrezl Harrell got into a physical altercation at halftime of Tuesday night’s home win over the Thunder and needed to be separated by teammates.

was a nice few weeks for the wiz there. i think they can feel content having rid themselves of both westbrook and wall contracts

nuggs blew a 22 point lead to said clippers

seems almost impossible to blow a 22 point lead in a game that you lose 87-85

lue is an incredible coach and i like watching the clippers for basically that reason alone

aww

lol nah dats my daughter dance 😂😂🙌🏽 https://t.co/WwWpV3Qsij pic.twitter.com/v5tvqHCjyf

ja is winning the hearts and minds of america

Ja Morant: "He was disrespectful with that jersey on. We Memphis. It looked like he wanted to cheer, but he had that jersey on. I apologize to him, but in that moment, bro, take that jersey off and then dap me up. Somebody find his information. I’ll send him one myself." https://t.co/fzDa7rcqrv
