NBA / 21 / 22 / FG / FT / 3PM / TO / BL / STATS

if he was on a good team as the second best player he could prob impact winning fine, but hes on the lakers

he's gotta get the scoring record and then what

retire on his billion $ in earnings?

steph 47-8-8 0 turnovers

ben simmons 1 field goal 3 fouls

absolute classic steph game

ben simmons 3 FGs, 4 PFs in a W

Loving the simmo kev updates lol

Makes me feel less petty for my schadenfreude.

it’s a great storyline!

he’s at 19 FGs and 33 PFs for the year

lmao that is so few fgs

i like the nba cos a lot of rando rotation dudes could still drop 30+ on you any night if asked of them

tough one for simmo today, 1 FG, 4 PFs

in 14mins off the bench

Haha some truly comical stuff

Is there a comparable in any sport for a player of his stature (mid-20s, multi-time all-star) becoming borderline unplayable in this fashion?

cody bellinger is the closest comp I can think of

garland 51pts

Nets are 4-2 w/out Kyrie Irving since he was suspended. It's not an aberration since he got to Brooklyn.

Nets are 60-51 with Irving (.541 win%)
Nets are 73-56 without Irving (.566 win%)

Nets had NBA's worst defense with him this year, and have had NBA's best defense without him

vibes are real

im open to this kyrie is bad at basketball argument, because i watched all of his games for two years

must overrated player of this generation IMO

yeah and its understandable cause he does amazing things but he just doesnt give a shit about "winning basketball"

in boston he even tried hard at defense for a while but he was just so bad at the fundamentals because hed never bothered to learn, constantly getting backdoor cut and whatnot

and thats not even getting into just giving up on playoff series cause it seems too hard

as we saw last year, as we saw his final year in boston, maybe happened other times idk

yeah that's pretty much all otm

yeah i remember he was a pretty solid 1v1 defender for a while but the team scheme was where he got lost, not dissimilar to russ in that aspect. i guess you could say the same for both players on offense too... great at breaking down 1v1 defense and getting a shot but not much added in a team scheme, ie movement without the ball.

How Kyrie Irving's teams have fared with him and without him in the last 6 seasons 👀

after giannis he's the no 1 player i'd want in the east and i don't think it's particularly close

yeah seems right

omg killian hayes, yikes

hes very bad

KOC's #1 pick

lol thats our guy

loon and horf need more touches, is my takeaway

horf shooting 45% from 3 so far, very large steph

shai is having a ridiculous season

SGA is scoring 17.1 points in the paint per game.

Over the last 25 years, the only players to average more are Shaq, Giannis and Zion. pic.twitter.com/wUm4qq11TE

love his game hes so creative just doing all crazy angles and spins slithering around

prob relying a lil too much on tough floater range shots but if he can continue to hit them more power to him thats luka stuff

he seems very under the radar. thunder have some fun players

there was a stretch last year after he came back from his sprained ankle where he was putting in 30+ per night. he’s huge for a PG too

okc points scored last four games 132, 132, 145, 122

yes

hes playing like an mvp it might be smart to just focus on that from here on out. giddey seems like the perfect 2nd/3rd banana depending on how chet works into it all.

giddy is super talented but has a long way to go, got stripped by the celtics like five times in 10mins last night, he cant defend or shoot which is an untenable combo

yeah i think simmons had him in the top 40 of his trade value list which i thought was completely crazy. he’s a fun player to watch but if you can’t shoot and can’t defend there’s not really a role for you on a real NBA team nowadays
