Like the TNT crew, but man watching them discuss their all decade teams is painful. Some incredibly shitty takes :lol

Leaving Kawhi off saying he didn’t become elite till last year :lol but putting Westbrook, Harden and even Griffin and Kobe in there. My God

lmao I get it. People are just blinded by stat padding of Westbrook and Harden. All people care about is box scores not winning when it matters

completely agree. I don’t even have those two over CP3 for the 10’s

[Laker_1995]

completely agree. I don’t even have those two over CP3 for the 10’s

Even though CP3 hasn’t won shit I still will put him over harden and Westbrook. If it wasn’t for 2012 and refs helping OKC vs SA for them to face Lebron in Miami They would be in the same tier winning wise.

Great win for the Clips. Totally shut down the Raptors defensively, crisp ball movement on offense.

[Bynumite]

For a while, Raps were a lock to cover the spread but fell off since Fat Lowry returned.

Clippers beat Toronto easily. Dudes gunna start clicking soon

Pat Bev out with concussion, Derrick Walton JR injured his hamstring....all of the guards on the Clippers are injured:pctoss

Clippers starting to play better. Both LA teams looking pretty good.

[Ball Buster]

No injuries to any players :)

Clips were always gonna be good Lakers were bigger surprise according to stat nerds most nba analysts... I'm a PG skeptic but he proved me wrong last regular season... He still the cat that got his ass busted by Joe Engles when it mattered...

WOW on nba tv rn Shaq just said C-Webb and AI over TD when talking about #1 picks of 90’s :lol saying what would C-Webb have done as a Spur in same position as TD. TD once again gets trashed because of Pop’s legendary “system” :lol

In case anyone is wondering:



Andre Drummond (eye) had an allergic reaction to an avocado to cause his eye swelling, and is a game-time decision for Thursday against the Mavs.

Someone in Vegas must be smoking some good shit, to think any game involving the 2019-20 spurs warrants a -11,5 spread in favor of the spurs :lmao

Domonivacic Kryzexikowic

We’ll draft him and leave him in Europe for 4 years. Then he’ll join the team and spend 4 more years in the G league getting over himself. Then he’ll want out so they’ll release him. He’ll sign with LA and be an Allstar.

Nothing is wrong with International players. Luka is top 10 *offensively* right now.

The joke is MAGA Pop not wanting to draft another brotha given how his relationship with Kiwi ended. He also butted heads with LMA IIRC.

The lesser of two evils to Pop is drafting another Euro in the lottery. Jim (Virgin Islands), Beak (Argentina?), and TP (France) make up the best players in Spur history, who also remained loyal to Pop. Brothers born stateside? Not so much :lol

Got this from LG (re: Bin Harden)


Harden is a great player. But his playoff drop in numbers is real.

15-16 Season Stats: 29 points (43.9% fg, 35.9% 3p), 7.5 assists, 6.1 rebounds
15-16 Playoff Stats: 26.6 points (41% fg, 31% 3p),7.6 assists, 5.2 rebounds

16-17 Season Stats: 29.1 points (44% fg, 34.7% 3p), 11.2 assists, 8.1 rebounds
16-17 playoff Stats: 28.5 points (41.3% fg, 27.8% 3p), 8.5 assists, 5.5 rebounds

17-18 Season Stats: 30.4 points (44.9% fg, 36.7% 3p), 8.8 assists, 5.4 rebounds
17-18 Playoff Stats: 28.6 points (41% fg, 29.9% 3p), 6.8 assists, 5.2 rebounds

18-19 Season Stats: 36.1 points (44.2% fg, 36.8% 3p), 7.5 assists, 6.6 rebounds
18-19 Playoff Stats: 31.6 points (41.3%/35%), 6.6 assists, 6.9 rebounds

His field goal percentages, assists, and points drop substantially in the playoffs. If that happens here and there then it could just be a bad matchup. But in Harden's case we've seen this year after year.

Will this year be any different? Doubtful.

Where have you been man? For as woke as Pop likes to act, he has never liked American brothas his team. He has made a career of relying on international stars. The few brothas that have given him any resistance are shipped off the team or let go immediately. Pop only like the ones that are begging to still be in the NBA and will do whatever he says.

Matt mother fucking white privilege Bonner was on this roster for 10 years and he never did shit yet made millions. That money could’ve gone to a good inner city America born hooping brotha.

Pop is so fake woke.

Got this from LG (re: Bin Harden)

It’s quite common for players to have worse stats in the playoffs due to slower pace and more physical plays.

[daslicer]

Yea. He changes his stances on guys he played against all the time. Dude’s crazy. Has shown incredible respect for TD in previous quotes

Even for Shaq I thought it was pretty over the top to go with C-Webb and AI over Timmy

Shaq has always low key hated Duncan. When he gave Tim respect it was forced and not because he wanted to. Many years ago in his auto biography “Shaq talks back.” Which came out in 2000 Shaq stated that Tim was overrated and that he lucked out by playing with Robinson. Shaq also claimed Tim could not win without David. I also remember when Shaq got his ‘02 finals MVP and said he wanted to give respect to the real league MVP Jason Kidd. Obviously he was taking a shot at Tim who had won the mvp that year.

Anyways Shaq is like a woman. Always jealous of others who are more successful than him. Just look at how easily triggered he gets when Charles insults him.

[D-Wade]

Miami up 12 against LAL without Dragic or Winslow.

[TimDunkem]

What's the problem with international players? All Spurs rings have international colors ingraved and majority of top 10 players in the league right now are international.

Then why didn't they take Sacramento's offer when they put up the 2nd for Kawhi and take Doncic?

[DMC]

With all the heroics and insane compilation of stats James Harden is mustering, he's still shooting below his career average and 88% from the FT line.

He can have a 10-15 3pt shooting night, two in a row, and then go 1 - 15. This is James and Russell gaming the system for RS accolades. It's the new meta.

[Killakobe81]

Miami up 12 against LAL without Dragic or Winslow.

Moral victories. In the end, cream rises...

[Bynumite]

Laker W against the 2nd team in the east and ending their 11-0 home record in the process.

Par for the course for the Lakers and their weak schedule :lol

[Laker_1995]

AD and Giannis the two best big men in the league that’s it

[Bynumite]

Guess what team Kiwi averaged the most free throws with? Let me help you with that, it wasn't the raptors or the clippers :wakeup

[swrowe78]

Embiid and Jokic, tbh
Both those guys are soft. Honestly, AD best big man in league followed by Giannis. AD is more skilled than Giannis. Giannis more athletic.

[Clipper Nation]

Seeing Kawhi get the Kobe ref treatment simply bc he’s playing in LA is sickening

:lol What Kobe ref treatment? This is the first time all season that he's actually gotten the legitimate foul calls he deserves. He usually gets the LeBron/Shaq treatment from refs where they just swallow the whistle and assume he can "play through it."

[Laker_1995]

PG and Kiwi fucken snapped tonight good lord

[LkrFan]

They won't combine for 88pts in the rematch.

[monosylab1k]

Luka just went down, turned his ankle bad

[Texas_Ranger]

right now you can clearly see why Doncic is the MVP. This Dallas team without him would probably win 10 games in the whole season.

[Beartrucci]

Luka just went down, turned his ankle bad

Shit. If it’s really that bad they may be one of those teams in the hunt for the 8th seed after all. Really hope not

[monosylab1k]

X rays are negative, he’s probably gone for a week. Terrible timing, though, as they run through the East gauntlet.

[Texas_Ranger]

if its high ankle he could be out for 3 months... Just great. Now i can't even enjoy watching the NBA. If watching the Spurs makes me want to kill myself, Luka somehow made me not wanna do that.... Back on suicide watch....

Never doubt Lavine's aggressiveness. If he had higher Bball IQ he could be a borderline Star

Shit finish that KP!!!!!

[D-Wade]

Butler continues to think he should end games with 3’s while shooting 30% from 3 :lol

Yep. Drive it to the hole. Don't get why Spo called a timeout just for us to run that. The refs tend to give Jimmy the benefit of the doubt when a drives, too.

Fortunate win on a back to back.

[Laker_1995]

did he really? aside from late in seasons when the playoff seeds were already about figured, i dont really recall this happening much at all. the majority of games he missed, he was dealing with injuries

his "load management" history is blown horribly out of proportion bc they intentionally sat out their big 3 against the spurs, after the spurs did it to them earlier in the season

Yeah, he did. There's one season in particular, with the Cavs, where he was sitting every B2B Game. I also seem to recall he missed entire weeks (maybe even a month or more) for "rest".

"Listen, Pop's been doing this for 10 years, 12 years, 15 years and everybody was like, 'You know what? That's the smartest thing Pop has ever done,' " James said. "Give his guys a couple games off and here they go and win five championships. That's the smartest thing.

"But some of our coaches in our league don't have the stature that Pop has, and our head coach doesn't have it so he gets killed for it. So, I've got to keep winning to help my coach be able to have a reason why he can sit his players."

So basically this happened during one season of Lebron's career where most any logical coach would agree that after playing in 6 straight finals and playing through a number of small injuries through that time it would be a smart idea to make him sit a meaningless game here and there just to avoid risk of injury. However, in the one season where Lue did that to him, he missed a grand total of 8 games (2 of which at the end of the season when playoff seeds were wrapped up). Kawhi has already missed 8 games for absolutely no reason at all, other than being the prima donna he is. Those are not remotely comparable situations.

So we all agree that he rested when he could have played and he called that the "smartest thing"? Ok then, moving on.

:lol people who questioned the Mavs taking Doncic over Young

[Jules_Winnfield]

- hawks were down 25 to the knicks after 3 quarters
- young plays the entire 4th quarter and scores 15 points
- hawks lose by 23 (120-143)

that's the definition of a statpadder

[DAF86]

So we all agree that you are comparing apples to oranges and don't know what your talking about (per the norm), as evidenced by your blatant lies? Ok then, moving on.

I called Lebron a hypocrite because he's criticising "load management" when he used to do it. I even provided evidence. Where's the lie?

You, on the other hand, are beating around the bush trying to justify his hypocrisy for some odd reason. Crofl "apples to oranges". GTFOH with your bullshit excuses son, You sound like an upstairs sniffer, tbh.

So don’t try to call out bron when kawahi and Dennis are running you and that organization like puppets. If kawahi leaves In 2 years with no ring he’s fired

Man Mil Defense is suffocating. Good lord

[Laker_1995]

I truly can’t believe the non calls on AD this half. I’m truly speechless

[Laker_1995]

I truly can’t believe the non calls on AD this half. I’m truly speechless

I still believe we can come back. But when Giannis can travel, throw defenders, flop, and get every single call we won’t win. Idk it’s crazy how much shit he gets away with

[Laker_1995]

Welp. If Giannis is shooting like curry then end the season now wtf is this shit lmao dude on fire

[D-Wade]

Welp. If Giannis is shooting like curry then end the season now wtf is this shit lmao dude on fire

That part is a fluke. But they really rounded out their bench with Korver and Matthews. I thought they lost too much with Brogdon but they could be OK.

Saltiness aside lol. Bucks are a good team. Amazing On defense. Good shooters around Giannis. Very connected on both ends and trust each other. They for real this year

[Beartrucci]

I truly can’t believe the non calls on AD this half. I’m truly speechless

The non calls :lol what do you want AD to have 30 free throws?

I think AD gets a bunch of bs called for him when players barely touch him on his running jumper he always does. It’s kind of his go to move

before I posted this he wasn’t getting shit once I do he did get weak calls so maybe I shouldn’t have complained lmao. Easiest thing to complain about are the refs lol but our bench was atrocious along with lebrons effort. Bucks are legit

[Beartrucci]

before I posted this he wasn’t getting shit once I do he did get weak calls so maybe I shouldn’t have complained lmao.

Haha it goes like that sometimes

[Bynumite]

When they struggle from the perimeter, all season the Lakers have relied on their frontcourt to get it done in the paint. Problem is the Bucks are one of the few teams in the league that can match the Lakers in terms of length and the easy points around the basket the Lakers have been accustomed to, all of a sudden become much harder to get. No wonder the clips got their shit pushed in with their midget squad against Milwaukee.

Rondo was unplayable tonight and Avery's on ball defense some people praise, doesn't offset how awful he's been on the other side of the court since he returned from injury. Close game considering the Lakers bench gave them nothing and Giannis' fluky 3pt shooting.

[ducks]

LAL loses consecutive games for the first time all season and falls in MIL, 111-104, dropping its record to 24-5. The Lakers made a game of it after trailing by 21 in the 1st half, but 19 turnovers and 4 bench pts didn't help. AD 36p 10r 5a; LeBron 21p 12r 11a; DG 21p; KCP 18p

So KG came out and said that he and the Big 3 ran LeBron out of Cleveland the first time. Stephen A and Max started talking and they said they both know very well that there was a lot of other stuff going on in Cleveland at the time, which made LeBron felt betrayed by his teammates.

KG is a delusional all-time great. Pierce couldn't beat Bron, so Lurch sent KG to Boston. Then they traded for Ray Allen to form a Big 3. Then they finally beat Bron.

Then Bron formed a Big 3 in Miami and KG, Pierce, and Ray Allen never beat Bron again - and KG salty about it.

If Lurch didn't conspire with Ainge, Bron never goes to Miami. But I find it funny that 3 first ballot HOFers have 1 rang to show for in 2008*. Yet they act like they were some dynasty :lol

I called Lebron a hypocrite because he's criticising "load management" when he used to do it.

He actually didn't criticize it once. He simply stated what he is choosing to do this year with the situation he is currently in. He even made that clear when he talked about being late in his career and not wanting to let his fans down as there may not be many more chances for his fans to see him play.


I even provided evidence.

You literally didn't provide anything other than a quote from Lebron approving of Pop giving his older, banged up players an occasional day off here and there, based off of the Spurs history of success. And again, Lebron's situation back then, and Kawhi's situation now is not remotely comparable, nor was it even what Lebron was talking about at all. He was answering a question about his approach this year.


Where's the lie?

You literally claimed that he took entire weeks, maybe even months off for "rest", as well as sitting every B2B. None of those claims were remotely true.


You, on the other hand, are beating around the bush trying to justify his hypocrisy for some odd reason. Crofl "apples to oranges". GTFOH with your bullshit excuses son, You sound like an upstairs sniffer, tbh.

No, I'm defending the fact that his past situation and Kawhi's are completely different. I'm also defending the fact that he never once made it about him and Kawhi. He simply spoke on what he is personally choosing to do at this point in his career, which is to play when he's healthy. Even the question was "is that going to be your approach all year?"

So how exactly is that hypocritical?

He said "if I'm healthy I play" and went on a long preachy sermon about how he owns it to the fans and I don't know what bullshit more. I was just reminding everyone that he used to sing a different tune back in the days. Maybe the PED's he's using now are of a better quality, tbh.

All right, looking forward to another shitty terrible loss to the Clippers. This game should most likely look like the first game they played this season. Clippers are going to go apeshit, that stanky breafed Somali pirate is going to be slamming is nuts into everybody. Lakers will turn the ball over, and the flip show will bust their ass in transition. One of these two teams will have the honor of losing to the Milwaukee Bucks this season. Probably the trickers.

At this point Harden must have PTSD from getting his shit pushed in by the Warriors time and time again.

[MultiTroll]

AD should have taken his last shot to the rack Laker Phans.

[DAF86]

Kawhi is Lebron's daddy.

[140]

I hate this type of call tbh. 99.9% of the time that's called off Bev, no questions asked

[Clipper Nation]

Media's going to be crying about the Lakers only getting 99.9% of the calls instead of the full 100%, but the true story of the game is PatBev getting more rebounds than AD and making more clutch plays down the stretch than either of the Lakers' stars. The Clippers didn't even play well tonight, the Lakers treated it like Game 7 of the Finals and still couldn't win.

[Laker_1995]

AD should have taken his last shot to the rack Laker Phans.

he was playing great but once again we blew a lead. Clippers actually wanted to win and stepped up unlike Lebron who’s afraid of fucken Beverly and shrinks against Kawhi.

[phxspurfan]

PatBev > LeBrown "Hollywood" Jones

[daslicer]

Lakers are a paper tiger. They clearly don't match up well with the Clippers. Lakers can go and win 60 games and proceed to lose to the Clippers in the playoffs.
