***NBA Thread v5.0 - Yoffs, Fred gets paid***

When was the last memorable basketball commercial?

i get people don't have cable, or watch TV as much, but there's no like iconic ads any more

No McGrady what happened to them boys, no Nike dribble beats, no Grant Hill drinks Sprite rimcheck, no Shaq and Hakeem double decker while riding a bike or some weird ish, etc...
edit: that boy, not them boys

Gotta be Mutombo in the grocery store

Maybe the Luka revolution will convince HS graduates that there is value in going over and killing it in Euro league. Getting paid for a year a two always seemed like a better idea than falling for the "student athlete" scam anyways, but now moreso than ever

The problem is teams won’t waste an import roster spot for a player that’s one and done. They’d rather develop their own Luka for 4-5 years . Besides their dad being a fick head all you have to do is look at the Ball brothers. LaMelo already had a big following and the only league they could play in was tier 2 Lithuania and he’s gonna be a top 5 pick

Just legit laughed at this again

I legit had no idea Drew Gooden had a dad that played overseas, and married some Finnish chick producing him until right now

I am disgusted at how so many guys are saying... "I'm so proud of these players"

People love to move to Texas, bc it has some of the same perks as Cali: hot women, diversity, nice weather, etc.

Not realizing it's some of their more conservative policies like no state income tax and favorable tax breaks for businesses that is actually driving its economic rise and growth.

San Diego and Orange county are unique Cali metro spots in that regard, as it's highly diverse and full of liberal people (non military ones at least) but it is run by many Conservstive policies

Shut the hell up and stop promoting propaganda. People should be banned from moving into Tejas, whether it be from another country or state!

Edit. Love San Diego, but glad the Rockets ditched them...

Ok I'm reaching pretty far back for these @HunterSdVa29

And from the epic baggy suit class of 2003 Mr TJ Ford:

Im sure the designer was trolling. It looks like a jock strap. Ridiculous no matter how your head looks.

so are there games on tomorrow or what

so are there games on tomorrow or what

according to reports the players will have another meeting tomorrow morning to discuss what to do. Personally i think the nba will have one more day of sitting out and then back to games. Would be super ballsy of the players to quit the season. Dont get me wrong, Id personally be upset and done with the nba forever (i think) but id tip my cap and give them credit for putting their money where their beliefs are. I also hope that if the players do leave the bubble and cancel the season, that daryl morey goes off on china permanently ending that relationship daring lebron or anyone else to defend that cash cow

 

[Fugazy]

UD can fuck himself

Every other team better not fold

I agree, but you know that second part isn’t happening.

No one will go after China, even after they have harassed American NBA staff. They will just take it in the chin and talk shit about the US.

Classic boozled take imo

But James is a ho, always has been.
