NBA: Official 2022 NBA Offseason and 2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

Even though Pop is #1 in wins, he is #12 in losses in the all time list.

9th place now, 7th place incoming soon. Currently tied with Jerry Sloan.
He will pass George Karl in March.
May also pass Rick Carlisle. BTW absolutely no comparison as to who had the better rosters, Pop or Carlisle. FFS Carlisle took one of the GOAT teams to 7 games in 2014.

I do think the Spurs draft capital will greatly improve the roster.
OTOH i could see Pop making a run at the all time loses record. He will certainly crack the Top 5.

Noooooo.

It is indeed amazing how far Timmy Dunks and core upped Pops win %

Now if you want to post AD (After Duncan) or better yet AKZ (after Kwa got Zaza'd) you'll get a real clear picture.

Phil had jordan, Pippen, shaq and kobe. Riley had magic Kareem worthy Lebron and shaq. Every successful coach has a loaded roster. I can’t think of one single coach who won a le, or even got to the finals with a roster.

Riley with the Knicks was just OK, and even then he had Ewing, Oakley, Starks, mason (rest his soul).

Pop did well when nephew was here. Even with a roster led by derozan and lamarcus the spurs out did their expectations. In fact, year after year the spurs were too old, and yet they squeeezed multiple les out of it. They were too or since 2006. And they got a le in 2014. Outside of 2009 to 2011, the spurs were contenders every single year. 2003 was supposed to be a rebuild year and the spurs won a le. Yes, it was a phenomenal run by duncan, one of the greatest in league history, but the way the spurs played defence was incredible and a single player, no matter how great cannot single handedly prop up a teams entire defence to make it one of the greatest in the league.


If you want to remove Duncan, then Kawhi, the yeah, pop wouldn’t have much to fall back on. But that applies to every single coach in the history of the league.

Like five or six years after he got the all time win record?

[MultiTroll]

They were too or since 2006.

Crack rehab entry please.

I was able to discern which team i hate worse.
Clearly Apemond is the tipping point for me.
Warriors.

I don’t hate the Clippers tbh

I hated the Shaq-Kobe Lakers but the Golden Showers are much much worse

[MultiTroll]

Lebron announcing he wishes to continue to identify as Laker and does not plan on transitioning.

We'll see if that is the Clutch script or not.

[monosylab1k]

Luka Doncic is Devin Booker’s father

This delusional puss...

On being the next "face of the NBA", ala Jordan, Lebron:

“I feel like it’s mine to take,” Tatum said, via Jared Weiss of The Athletic. “I do feel like, if we win a championship, it would be more distinguished and clear. But I understand I’m in that shortlist for sure. But yeah, when LeBron retires, the face of the league … that’s tough. But, we win a championship, I got something to say about it. I know that.”

[MultiTroll]

Lefty, tuning in a bit before halftime. Seeing the Nuggets school the gots was enjoyable.

Culminating with Klaus clanking a trey and Gordon bullying him down low for the 2+1.

[MultiTroll]

Should we be the least bit surprised what they are letting Ape mond getaway with?

Nuggs something like 7 straight now vs the gots.

Gordon continues to grow and is a solid all around player. Hope to see him just continue to add.

I don't what exactly the score was, about 74-70 and the call that Stephina got on a trey attempt that bricked. It was Kirby Bryant level.
A Nugget came around and got him from behind, all ball and absolutely no body contact, i mean zero. Stephina was something like 1-8 at that time so ABC/Disney ref rang up the Nugget on the spot.

Jokic. FFS it's good to see a legit hetero MVP along with Freak the Champ season a couple years ago. Not seen since the likes of Timmy Dunks.

[MultiTroll]

Is anyone watching the Clippers throw this game vs Lakers.

The fake turnovers are a hoot.

[MultiTroll]

98 Clippers
77 Lakers
One minute into the 4th qtr.

Final
Lakers 116
Clips 112

Does anyone know which LA strip clubs Harden and any other Clippers hang out at? I don't picture Nephew as a club attender.
Want to tell them to their face what massive pussys they are.

[Arcadian]

Jokic OWNS Anthony Davis.

[Raven]
