he's been first team all defense each of the last two seasons and the sixers are suddenly dead last in the NBA in rebounding w/ him not playing
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 20 January 2022 01:57 (two years ago) link
He's a great defensive player and I would never argue otherwise.
His biggest problem seems to be he doesn't like basketball.

dont blame him, full of tryhard grind cult weirdos, not a good work-life balance

tbh his production this season hasn't been very impressive

His production of $$ earned / work performed is infinity

have to say I respect kyrie infinitely more than ben. kyrie’s critical thinking skills may be averageish, but he’s at least honest. I respected his answers recently when he was getting pressed by reporters about getting the vaccine: basketball isn’t that serious to me, I’m getting paid either way, joke’s on you guys.

issuing a correction on a previous post of mine, regarding the basketball player and anti-vaxxer kyrie irving. you do not, under any circumstances, “gotta hand it to him”
― auld gang syne (k3vin k.), Thursday, 20 January 2022 02:39 (two years ago) link
it's just tough when someone who gets paid like 35 million to play basketball claims they have all this big important life stuff outside of basketball. you got a kid, kyrie? congrats, so do i.

Onyeka Okongwu looks like he’s gonna be a real good defender. Giannis was 2 for 12 when guarded by him last game and he completely owned KAT tonight. 5 blocks and 17/8

solid -11 in <6 non-jokic minutes for the nuggets in the first half, fucking love this movie!

Lakers vs pacers is visually very weird the lakers in their gold unis and the pacers in their flo jo throwbacks that are half gold, from some angle it looks like they’re all wearing gold

pacers are running a closing lineup of sabonis - craig - lamb - levert - duarte. their only plus defender is craig and the next best is rookie duarte. the lakers suck.
― micah, Thursday, 20 January 2022 05:51 (two years ago) link
Omg that pass to Gordon to seal it. You just can’t double jokic on the perimeter he’s got no problem picking you apart from there. Really cool game between him and zubac with a career high in points
― Spottie, Thursday, 20 January 2022 05:52 (two years ago) link
beautiful pass by jokic. really great game
― sknybrg, Thursday, 20 January 2022 05:55 (two years ago) link
almost ready to count the clippers out of even the play in given the recent PG news. that roster just stinks without those two guys
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 20 January 2022 05:59 (two years ago) link
zubac still underrated for my money

Lue has that roster playing competitively I wouldn’t count them out completely

lue is a great coach and all they have to do is beat out some of the very worst teams and/or franchises in the NBA but they have like… not a real team
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 20 January 2022 06:12 (two years ago) link
reading that tonight was the pacers’ first road win since november and their first win of the year when trailing at half
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 20 January 2022 06:18 (two years ago) link
I think they’d only won 3 away games before tonight lol

Russ was 5/17 fg up to that point. They need to find a way to cut his FGA in half and give those to Malik Monk

Weird! You would have to think the NBA will fine or suspend him. Otherwise, zone defense is going to look mighty strange going forward.

Sources say there is hope Ball can monitor knee and play through it, but if he can't, he may require a minor procedure which would sideline him for several weeks. https://t.co/8Hetg2ZYQr— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) January 20, 2022

New story: Frank Vogel’s decision to bench Russell Westbrook was sanctioned by Lakers management, sources told ESPN.

The Chicago Bulls and guard Lonzo Ball are expected to make a decision on undergoing arthroscopic surgery for a meniscus injury in his left knee in the next 24-to-48 hours, a procedure that would sideline him for 4-to-6 weeks, sources tell ESPN.— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) January 20, 2022
just get the surgery. if that’s the timeline he’ll be ready for the playoffs.
