I wanted the rockets to lose but at the same time I want the sixers to keep the streak going.


At least rockets needed refball to win

Following the Lakers 111-77 loss to the Warriors on Tuesday night, Kobe Bryant said the he believes the Dubs have a real shot at breaking the 1971-72 Lakers' 33-game win streak.
"Yeah, they could do it – because they’re good," Bryant said. "It’s a very young league, and they’ve managed to put together a team of extremely intelligent players and extremely versatile players, and great shooters. And so I see no reason why they couldn’t continue to extend [the record]." Game recognize game

Even if that were correct (I presume considering pace would make your fedora fall off and we don't want to risk that), there's the fact that the Warriors score 15 more points per game, ergo would simply outscore San Antonio.

>>63842367
throwing the ball in the post and letting the big fellas go to work is a relic of the past with the abolition of the old illegal defense rules, which makes the post-up a p inefficient weapon

but here's a true center

>>63842367
Its disturbing how there are more back-to-basket plays made from guards more than the centers today. Watching Okafor and Towns play in the post is a sight for sore eyes though. Would prefer Randle did too but he insists on just running through guys.

Yeah, well he wouldn't suck if he worked in the post. He has the strength and footwork but can't control himself and just collapses altogether. Someone should hire Sabonis to teach how him to handle the ball better.

Curry is the best offensive player in the world right now but thats it. Hes all offense. When he wins some defensive awards or at least makes some all defense teams then you can start talking about him being top 10 all time. But until then hes just a really great offensive player.

Or he could win 5 rings and people wont care about his defense.

Offense is more valuable than defense, that's for sure. But where you're wrong is that Curry is pretty good at defense. He's maybe top 10 as a defensive pg near the bottom of that list. Steph Curry offensive game is so devastating that even if he went 0-11 he still draws double teams and the constant unending focus and attention of the other teams entire defensive scheme.

Yeah im pretty sure i made that clear when I said hes the best offensive player in the world. Im talking about defense though. Being top 5 defensive PG is alright I guess but theres plenty of other players who can guard multiple positions and Curry doesnt even come close to that list.

Curry is probably a top 10 defensive point guard and certainly better than most if not all of the international pgs at defense. Maybe Rubio is a little better, they're both in the very good tier.

>>63842826
PG defense is fucking shit. He's not CP or even Conley/Bledsoe level and they aren't all defense level (at least compared to better SGs, I know they have some among this group).

Yes, Curry can defend the lane well and grab a few steals a game, but PG d is overrated as fuck by default.

He's definitely not among the best "defensive players in the league" like that poster above said. Then again I would only consider maybe 4 PGs at that level comparative to what a SG can do and Curry is definitely not one of them.
>>
>>63842966
Okay, so whats your point then? The warriors defense was the best in the entire league last year. You really think anyone can stop a lineup like Curry, Butler, Durant, Leanord, Green? Depends on what they do with the lineups.
>>
Is there any reason to even bother with the rest of the season? Just give the Warriors their rings, it's obvious they're going to win it all.
>>
>>63842900
switch KD with CP3, Blake with Aldridge, and Harden with Butler and there's your team

Nah they're clearly gonna monumentally fuck up sooner or later. Can't wait til this Warriors charade finally ends and all these loser fans get shit up.

Oh, I was trying to guess who'd actually be picked.

Curry, Wall
Beal, Thompson, George
Leanord, Durant,
James, Green, Love
Cousins, Drummond, M Gasol

Too many deadly lineups, you can go any way you want. Curry, Beal, Durant, Love, Drummond would be insane to see.
>>
>>63843004
No. I was arguing your "modern NBA defense" and the above comment which was saying curry isn't a top defensive level player in the league (which is true, but again I would only consider CP3 and Bledsoe in this group among PGs and CP3 has frankly been quite shit this year from the 7 or 8 Clipper games I've watched so I don't know if I would even include him).


PGs have never had to play intensive defense to win, I wasn't arguing against Curry on the team I was arguing about his defense, which is being slightly overstated recently because people are looking for anything to cling on to go against Curry (defense is an easy target) then you get people (you) who will also cling on the first opportunity to overrate his defense.
He's decent but he is definitely not top caliber. I would love to see him without Klay/Dray/Iggy on the same team because those three would even make Dame or MCW look competent defensively from the other teams perspective.

Also PG over Butler/Leonard

Spurs are 1st in OPPG and DefRtg and their offense isnt even 100% yet like the warriors.

While I feel partly the same about them btfo everyone in the playoffs, I don't think their offense is that far off from their peak. Parker and Manu have got their game back and the offense is flowing just fine already with Mills and Green playing better. Whether or not Aldridge makes his shots is the only change I can see in their offense come playoff time.

The warriors literally have a better player waiting to step up and take his starting spot back

Iggy already averages more points than Barnes anyways, he just plays with the bench players because Barnes can't create plays on his own for shit

Actually you know what, to be quite honest I always thought he was a bit of a square little bitch, I mean he's from fucking IOWA like what the FUCK my fucking DAD is from Iowa and he's the biggest bitch in the world

Can't wait for Barnes to skip town and get paid already by some retarded desperate gm so we can wiggle our cap and get a real small forward in like durant or something

>>
lebron is better overall than curry, he's even a more superior 'pure' point guard, but outside of durant from a few years ago it's ridiculously hard to think of anyone that can just shit on you with 3 pointers and have such a high efficiency with it

he has decent drives but he's more just a pure 3 point shooter, and teams have so much trouble because it's very, very hard to give help to double team him when there's other guys who can almost shoot open 3's just as well as he can

i don't even think he's the best overall offensive player, he's just fucking amazing at 3 pointers, and that obviously just means more than someone who can score with just about everything in the 2 point range

warriors are just a perfect storm, one of the best 3 point shooters ever on a team of people that you can't leave open

but i just can't say he's 'the best ever' or even remotely in the discussion, because he's got one of the best overall teams ever and he basically does all his damage in one way

he's still one of a kind tho, and could easily go down as the best 3 point shooter ever if he doesn't fall off, his only real comparable is probably kyrie irving who can shoot 3's and handle just as well, but probably has better finish in close

the only obvious problem with kyrie however is he is injured all the fucking time
>>
>>63844260
kyrie is a 39% 3 pt shooter

not a lock down 3 pt shooter by any means
>>
>>63844316
only 3% off last year, granted far less shots, but he's also 4 years younger

i'd say he's a pretty legit 3 point shot threat especially when people won't be able to double team as much with lebron and love on the team

i don't think kyrie is as good of a passer but his handles are easily comparable and he's also one of the best finishers in the game in close

i think he's definitely comparable when healthy, but again, kyrie seems to be hurt every fucking year, and stupider shit at that than curry with his ankles before
>>
>>63844316
>39%
>not a lock down 3 pt shooter
Try shooting jump shots over the top 300 in the world. 39% in game is equal to 90% in practice
>>
>>63844567
practice doesn't mean shit

the game is all that matters

he's above average, not a top tier 3 pt shooter like curry/klay
>>
Curry passed Lelbron on the all time 3 pointers made list. Going to laugh as James starts chucking
>>
how good will the timberwolves be if they can start winning home games?
>>
>>63844577
Klay is elite but Kyrie is at least on his level. Someone needs to post that statistic to show just how open Klay takes his shots. Some shit like 70% assisted to wide open 3s while people like Curry/Kyrie or even Lillard basically never get open threes.

He's just a better korver (well korver even beats him in % but I'll give Klay the volume and hot factor).

Put Klay on Kyrie's Cavs situation from 2 years ago and lets see just how elite his 3 point shooting stays.
>>
>>63844902
klay shot 44% from 3 his rookie year while curry was hurt most of the year along with monta being traded away and the roster was filled with d league players

That play with CP3 and Davis wasn't malicious or anything, but it's a lame tactic used by faggots like CP3 and Harden.

If you're running down the court and veer into a big guy so you can collide and flop around hoping to get a foul, then you should get an offensive foul every time.

And CP3 fishing out Davis like this in a game that was out of reach already was pretty sketchy. Pels are lucky it was just a bruise, CP3s knee basically buckled Davis' in.

If I was Davis I'd put that little fucker on his ass with a hard screen or foul next time they play.

There's only one other player that could go #1 and that's Skal, but he's been slow out of the gate transitioning to this level. But so was Towns last year when Okafor was the consensus #1 early in the season. The Kentucky freshman always end up getting a lot better by March too.

Long term I don't think you can go wrong with either. Simmons' ceiling is a Lebron type player and Skal's is a Hakeem type player.

There's no guarantees with any prospects, but if you're looking at a guy's ceiling they don't get much higher than Skal's. He needs to get stronger and he needs to keep getting more experience.

I think Simmons is the safer bet, but I wouldn't be surprised if both end up as great NBA players.

Philadelphia has a first round pick from the suns this year, so they could pick up either of those guys in the draft.

>>63848279
LeBron type meaning as good as LeBron or similar to him? Because LeBron James even in highschool they knew was going to be the best player in the NBA. From what I can tell, Simmons is the better rebounder, but not quite the passer or scorer that LeBron is.

Probably, if LeBron averages 30/8/8 in a prime year, Simmons at his ceiling it looks would be like 24/10/5

Or am I off here?

>>63848568

Similar to Lebron, not as good or skilled. You're right tho, when Lebron was in high school he was the surest thing we've seen. Durant and Davis were both pretty safe bets as well, but nobody has ever been quite the sure thing like Lebron was.
>>
>>63848599
>>
>>63848568
The pick is from the Lakers and it's top 3 protected, so it could be 50/50 as to whether or not the pick lands. If the Sixers do get the pick then they can get Murray (and possibly Simmons with their own). Then they could try to move Noel to a team like Orlando for Hezonja and a pick.
>>
>>63848691
Do you really think noel is movable?

I think he's a piece that's untouchable.
>>
>>63848656
Yeah, iirc he was getting huge media attention in his sophomore year, even had nationally televised highschool games.
>>
>>63848757
I love Noel but he just doesn't fit with Okafor. Since Jahlil has more upside, is younger, and on a longer rookie contract, I wouldn't be shocked if the Sixers move Nerlens.
>>
>>63848757
Who else are they going to move? I definitely wouldn't move embiid or okafor. Starting 5 of Murray, some other random guard, simmons, okafor, embiid. They would be a big team with 6'10, 6'11 and 7'0 as their frontcourt, a 6'4 guard and whoever the fuck else they can scrounge up, and they would all be elite top prospects who are 22 or younger. Would be pretty insane.
>>
>>63848814

Honestly I like Noel as a defensive piece long term more than I like Okafor.

Okafor has pretty much peaked already. His post moves are polished and he ain't getting more athletic.

He'll always be a defensive liability and he's always gonna struggle with bigger stronger defenders.

If he was even an average defender I could totally buy into him.
>>
>>63849004
I think Okafor could be an average defender in a couple years. His biggest issues right now are effort and fitness. He'll never be able to body a guy like Dwight Howard or Boogie Cousins, but when he gets in better shape he should be able to avoid being a liability.
>>
>>63849004
i agree with him basically having peaked. porzingis and towns will turn out to be way way better than him by the end of their careers. porzingis could legit be a force in the nba, he has so much talent.
>>
>>63848814
>>63848891

Haven't watched him play, but would nerlens work for the wolves if they were to do a three team deal?

Probably. KAT has a solid jumper and can play out of the post enough to spread the floor with Nerlens. Okafor and Nerlens play heavily in the post and it's just sort of a mess on offense. Nerlens play in the post would help the wolves a lot since they don't really have anyone who dominates there (don't give me KG lol).
>>
>>63849767
also, with him, KAT and wiggins they'd have a really solid defense. Rubio feeding Nerlens in the post would be a sight to see.
>>
>>63845141

>>63849767

sm4sh is fun but it's too casual. Melee has so much more freedom when fighting you can rip off combos if you git gud. sm4sh is too floaty and shit. melee is so much more complex and has a much higher skill ceiling.

predict the score of the Nets@Cavs Game?
103-79 nets
>>
If I were Philly I'd definitely be open to moving Okafor. An under the basket, low shooting %, high volume shooter who gets his shot blocked regularly and doesn't play defense doesn't make a whole lot of sense unless he's still growing and learning. Okafor has the game of a 30 y/o NBA veteran already.

I wouldn't be surprised if he gets worse as the years go by, especially since his build is prone to weight issues.

Noel and Covington are legitimate pieces that you can build a contender around.

Then you gotta get at least one of either Ben Simmons or Jamal Murray.

Then you gotta find a legitimate PG, preferably one who can score if you get Simmons since he'd run point forward.

Then some sort of big body bruiser to roll out into the paint.

They're actually loaded with quality 6th men kinda guys. Hollis Thompson, Isaiah Canon, etc..

He lacks intelligence and is a horrid defender/complete liability on defense. Too many turnovers and bad shot selection, hoping the sixers think the same way you do. The wolves probably tell him the same things over and over but it doesn't get through to him it seems at times.

Then they don't get on him since he makes the bad shots no one has any business taking, it's the age saying of you can't fix stupid.

Daily reminder that Brett Brown wants to run a similar system to what the Spurs run which is a pass and pace kind of basketball, run pass and hit the open shot kind of basketball.
