NBA NBA Thread: LeGOAT obliterates Kareem's legacy edition

The one great year was fun, but that Excremento Kings

Still the best series or games I've seen live.

I don't know what the best live game I've seen is but I did attend the game where Tim Duncan was infamously ejected while sitting on the bench laughing.

One of the saddest displays of friendly/rigged ever. One of the few times the nba did anything about their officiating problem

The standings are insane in the west. I don’t remember the last time spots 4-13 were so tight this late into the season. Suns are also a half game up on the clippers and blazers a couple games back of 12

This season is so weird with injuries and bad starts. Nobody pulls away lmao. Can't tell if that means a good playoffs or a terrible playoffs, I'm assuming good. Denver is gonna shit the bed.

I would say a good playoffs. Lot of the teams are even which is why majority of the teams are so close to .500

West is a crapshoot and I predict the hottest team moves on regardless of seed. I can see the top seeds even losing in the first round, no team is safe

First round has potentially some wild matchups. In the West you have potential first round match ups of the Flerps vs. Suns, Kings vs. Warriors, and Grizzlies vs. Mavericks. Those do not seem like first round matchups lol.

The big matchup of the night I would say is OKC (36-37) vs. Lakers (36-37), loser is knocked out of the play-in seeds.

No doubt. If the Lakers, Mavs, Suns, Clips put it together and get hot, I could see them taking out any of the top 4 seeds

It's not a fans fault the nba is rigged lmao

I grew up watching the timberwolves get royally fucked repeatedly. I got to see a prime KG dominate every night and for some erroneous shit to happen. The one great year was fun, but that Excremento Kings vs Wolves 2nd round series had some bullshit going on. I wanted that kings squad to win but the nba never gave them a chance. I actually turned on them that year because the officiating was so bad.

Still the best series or games I've seen live. Target Center was fucking loud the entire time.

I think we should retroactively give the 5 Minnesota Lakers championships to the Timberwolves.

 

[ferrisjso]

Lmao. No one wants to see the lakers in the finals but if they are they’ll get huge ratings. So what is it?

People hate watch because they want to see a team lose. All those people who don't want to see the Lakers are hoping different teams make it. All those individual teams will do less ratings.

But the NFL is number 1 because they realized giving all the fanbases hope is the secret sauce. NBA media has bought into BS about how the 70s were on tape delay because of parity Lakers and Celtics saved the sport by monopolizing all the championships and shattering 90% of the fans dreams. Basketball wasn't popular in the 70s because most of the adult popualtion pre dated the NBA which was less than 30 years old(and maybe the Celtics winning 9 out of 11 years had something to do with it!). People who actually watched the NBA as children weren't adults in large numbers until the 1980s.

Is Haliburton the most underrated player in the league? Guy is really good.

I been saying he's the best point guard in the league

I dunno about that, but he's definitely up there. Guy is a joy to watch.

Which war room poster is Chuck?

[MM808]

As a Mavs fan I’m seriously wondering if they are intentionally trying not to make the playoffs. Losing to the atrocious hornets smh

 

[Razor]

Lmao last season looking like a fluke

 

[Revolver]

Lmao. The thunder have been in LA since Tuesday. No way they have a shot tonight. If lakers lose GAyD needs to go.

I said it a while ago, giving up Brunson would be a very bad move. Defense has also gone to shit so they won’t beat anyone unless they tighten that up
