:lol Stern wannabe

It's ok... The NBA is a bastion of equality, wokeness and human rights though...

Plus that pussy ass Kawhi always has his vagina hurt...

[Trainwreck2100]

I ain't got no issues with it, if those teams load managed they would have been fine

[Rosewood]

I'm glad Nets, Lakers, Clippers and Warriors got fucked by injury. What real basketball fan wouldn't be elated right now?

[baseline bum]

Either CP3, Giannis, or Trae is ringing this year, so I'm good.

:lol Kate Middleton and a 37 CP0 headlining the finals
:lol sophisticated offence means dumping the ball to a 7 foot tall westbrick who can’t shoot and when said player is injured dump it to Kate Middleton
:lol CP0 being the healthiest “superstar”
:lol highly sophisticated defence can’t stop deandre Ayton whos basically a healthy Greg Oden
:lol today’s nba

You got one out of him. Be grateful for that. They don't grow on trees.

Let's not kid ourselves here. The NBA would fold up shop if every team started playing like the 2014 Spurs where there was a lot of ball movement and no real standouts. We saw in these playoffs how teams would do better when their star was out, sharing the ball and everyone getting plenty, the defense doesn't know who to guard and people involved on offense get involved on defense. But we know the NBA is a superstar driven league, players sell merchandise because Americans like heroes, not teams. This is why fans follow players instead of teams. Just look at many of the Lakers fans here who came post Pau, who were Kobe this or Kobe that, nary a Pau in their names. The NBA knows this and so even at the threat of losing, the franchises will put their star back on the floor and force the ball through them. Without them, we might see some real basketball.

A healthy Greg Oden would have become a dominant force in the NBA.

[Arcadian]

I love it. Let's go Phoenix.

It bothers you that two small market teams in the finals?

BTW, not sure how small market either Phoenix or Milwaukee are; but I'm guessing neither are top ten.

Could be. I have no beef against Ayton, but have beef against claims that :lol today’s nba has these highly sophisticated offensive schemes.

Why is healthy Greg Oden lol'able? He was the best bigman prospect since Duncan.

[Kim Jong-il]

Ayton wouldn’t even come close to a healthy Oden :lol
Boosted by CP3 :lol
Right back to being a glorified Capela once this run is over :lol

Ayton has been playing great. I'm interested in the matchup of the new and improved Ayton and Mr Glass if he ever returns to the court.

no it bothers Silver

where the fuck did you get the idea it bothered me?

[ambchang]

Because he wasn’t used like a duncan but instead a third option behind a 37 YO CP0 and a chucking booker. :lol today’s nba rules won’t let him prosper.

[Rummpd]

Silver who looks like an emancipated ghoul probably does not give a damm as he rakes in millions and makes deals to make it the ChinaBA.
