Why do you guys hate us again?
>>64161598
mark cubans pretty annoying i guess
>>64161598
i dont actually, pretty based how your team bounced back after being keked.
cuban though like anon said.
>>64161598
because dirk deserves more rings
AMA
>>64161598
Who hates us? The only people who I can see have a reason would be the Heat but even then they must admit we were the better team that year and they beat us in 06 cos of refball anyway so we're even.
>they won't vote for kobe
Will we make playoffs?
>Rags
Watched my first complete Warriors game of the year last night.
Do they always get the kind of "foul" calls they were getting last night, or was it an aberration?
>>64162486
pretty sure it's you the Kings and the Suns for 7th/8th seed.
Favors is a beast
>>64161506
Dank OC bro
John wall has reclaimed his spot as elite, it's official
go spurs
>>64163853
Wow a new spurs qt, who is this
why are the wizards so shit
>>64163868
don't know, just posting shit from /s/
basketball post
>>64163919
Yeah they're pretty hurt but I'm not sure that if they were healthy they'd make the playoffs. Wittman has to go. It looks like they're settling into their new offense, but their defense is garbage.
I'm really hoping they get like a top 8 pick and he pans out. I guess I've given up on this season
>>64163963
Nice I guess I should claim a Wiz waifu
Starting with my other celebr crush desu
>>64163853
brehs...
>>64163991
Sounds just like the Bulls & Hoiberg
>>64164397
They're pretty different teams tho. The bulls have tons of talent. Rose isn't garbage, butler might be the best wing in the league, pau, Mirotic
Wiz have wall and beal. And Gary neal might be their second best player
>>64164517
Third best*
Cant wait until John Wall gets ultra shook again on the 15th.
Wizards confirmed for 30 game losing streak if Banjo Kazooie is a new Smash character.

Predicted Finals: Charlotte Hornets vs. Golden State Warriors
Thoughts? Do you guys think this trend will hold true in that the East will have all good teams in the playoffs, while the West is basically top heavy with GS and SA? Do Washington and Houston have a chance to get back on track?

>>64174945
Kemba isn't good
Frank isn't good
Mkg is hurt but isn't that good
>>64174984
In no way or any of those 3 a bust. Kemba will probably be a coach's pick for all star.
MKG is was a DPotY candidate
>>64174814
1. KAT
2. Porzingas
3. D'Angelo
4. Okafor
5. Mudiay
Pretty weak draft looking back at it. Only three guys in the draft have a chance at making the all-stars and only one guy who could turn into a superstar.
>>64175029
Yeah none of those guys are busts (yet) you're right
And kemba has looked better this season so far
Still, I don't think Kaminsky will ever be that good, still way to early to call him a bust

REMINDER THAT THE ALL STAR GAME IS NOT FOR THE BEST PLAYERS BUT THE MOST ENTERTAINING PLAYERS.
Nobody wants to see Kawhi Leonard play defense or James Harden draw fouls. They want to see Blake Griffin dunk and Draymond Green throw up crazy lobs to Kevin Durant while Kobe chucks airballs after airball.
>>64174807

Give them a 60% chance of beating the cavs
Will probably beat them and take the streak to 40
wish i had a gf lads
>>64176406
Tbh refs will let the cavs win if it's close
>>64176297
So D'Angelo will head to the Warriors after his rookie deal to win his rings?
>>64176520
WHO is this bum and what happened to him?
>>64176772
He's right, refball is real, and if you're a raptors fan you know this better than anyone.
Pacers vs Pistons should be fun tonight lads
>>64176801
I know he's right, im just keking around. And no I am no Craptors fan leld
>>64176734
no
but he will win them while him and simmons are in their primes after curry ded and popovich ded
>>64176913
You should be. Pretty good year to bandwagon them with derozan hitting shots and lowry all skinny. When Jonas comes back things will be big.
>>64176970
also leroids
When it's all said and done will AD be the GOAT PF?
>>64176980
I prefer Biyombo a lot more desu, Val is kinda redundant and Bismack gives you ELITE rim protection

you'll tell your fucking half-black grandchildren about how you loved Curry
what movie should i watch tonight anons elf or gremlins
>>64176316
You're boring. I bet you like watching fags like KD, Westbroke and LeBust. I bet you jerk off to James Harden foul shooting.
>>64177029
Norway anon, fuck you for picking a bad team. That being said I like your guts. You're alright in my books.
>>64176980
Jonas is trash
Does anyone here actually support a team apart from Canakeks and various foreigners?
>>64177258
Don't know if I count as a various foreigner but I'm Nuggets for life.

>>64177258

>>64177280
I think we are various foreigners. Although the guy has a point. Outside of the trips, most of the fans truly loyal to one team posting here are foreigners. Strange.
>>64177306
I don't support anyone
>>64177258

do you realize what you sound like?
>>64177258
I don't even watch sports I haven't turned on a television in years
>>64177340
Basketball has the most varied personalities and characters in any American sport, and also the intimate. I'm sure most people here have a team they support and cheer for but some teams don't have any fun players to really follow.
My Pistons for example, it's a bunch of boring nobodies just how SVG wants it
>>64177441
>drummond
>nobody
I wish nobodies like this played for my team.
>>64177483

I love the guy, he's a beast, but like anon said he's autistic.
I used to watch Sheed nigga, I can't be doing with Stanley Johnson and Steve Blake
>>64177527
he's also trash at everything that isn't catching a lob
>>64177638
>he just had a putback dunk
Question since I probably missed the threads earlier: Why the fuck did the &^ers double down and give an extension to their coach with a 30-150 record? It makes literally no sense and he hasn't proven he can coach a damn at all.
>>64177671
>poorly thrown lob
>>64177694
he seems like a decent coach. nobody could win the living fecal matter they portray as nba players
>>64177638
He's a good rebounder
>>64177694
They legitimately might have the worse roster of all time
>>64177694
This is the &^ers. If he had won MORE they would have fired him
>>64177804
he's not even a good rebounder....the clippers are like bottom three in defensive rebounding and he gets caught in bad position
>>64177694
Imagine how much it would cost them to pay a good coach to take over the 76ers.
>>64161598
>Good things about the Dallas Mavericks

Are detroit one of the legit top supported clubs on /sp/?
Bit freaky but I love my pistons.
REGGIE FOR ALLSTAR
>>64168033
this dick.
>>64177408
seeing as your a dc sports fan, no one is surprised
>>64178079
drummond probably has a legit chance to make it
but reggie, no
>>64178413
reggie should be an all star 100% and i'm not even a detroit fan
>>64176049
Woah, hey guys, welcome to Rare Flag games.
Paul Pierce heat check vs Nets
>>64178413
it would be outrageous if drummond didnt make it, what center is better than drummond right now in the west?
>>64161598
We all supported you when you embarrassed lelbron. Now mavs fans have taken it as a free pass to be as annoying as possible all the time.
>>64178463
Draymond Green is the only one I can think of who rivals him but he's in the Western Conference so Drummond should make it.
>>64178433
Even though Wall is shook as fuck hes still better than Reggie, and Lowry is better than both of them this season.
There can only be 4 guards on the roster right? Kyle Lowry, Jimmy Butler, John Wall....actually you may be right, Reggie could be the 4th best guard in the East. I would say it's a toss-up between Reggie, Kemba, DeMar, and Beal. Kyrie hasn't played so he's excluded.
>>64178413
Drummond might be the best center in the nba right now
Jackson is like, above average I guess, not an all star
>>64178079
yes they are
why do you like the pistons Big Bong
>>64178583
beal is ded
>>64178583
Kemba is lowkey having a really good season, but that Detroit team heavily relies on Jackson/Drummond

>hating teamwork and defense
>the state of beal's right fibula
>>64176316
seriously. 3pt shot was and still is a gimmick. time to widen the court, and move the line back or get rid of arbitrary point increases. it was fun while it lasted, but now its just ruining basketball.
>>64178695
Detroit is actually incredibly fucking awesome, Neville. I've met a lot of Brits and Irish there who love it. Auburn Hills is a good forty miles away anyways.
>>64178729
You dumb faggots realize moving the 3-point shot back would only HELP THE FUCKING WARRIORS
jesus you morons should stick to hockey and football
>>64178729
>gimmick
the word you're looking for is 'meme'
John Wall up to his old tricks again.
>>64178729
The warriors are an anomaly, the three point shot is fine. Anyway it's good because it's all about ball movement now. More skilled players too.
>>64178787
>You dumb faggots realize moving the 3-point shot back would only HELP THE FUCKING WARRIORS
I've been saying this for like a month, it just gives Curry a monopoly on 3 pt shooting.
>>64178707
not true. i love the game of the spurs, but everybody at my school jumped on the pistons bandwagon when they defeated the lakers in 2004
>>64178583
I'd say Isiah Thomas deserves it over Reggie Jackson as well, dude is breaking out this year.
>>64178787
not if you move it back more than a few feet and get rid of corner 3 autism
>>64178841
Well you're hating on your peers not the Pistons. Change your life up homie. Pistons are the last team to win without a superstar.
CLIPPER VS NETS FIGHT
>>64178885
Curry will just bomb it from 40 you stupid bastard
>>64178885
so you think making curry become the only player in the NBA that could hit a 3 somehow helps other teams and hurts the warriors?
autism
Who does /nba/ got, McGregor or Aldo?
/mcgregor/ here
>>64178939
webm?
>>64178819
they arent an anomaly, they are a blueprint. teams will only keep shooting more 3s and developing more strategies based around 3pt shooting the longer it persists. centers are already becoming obsolete unless they are top-tier players or can run the floor like AD. stretch pf's will only continue to rise in relevance, and in 10 years when all the young players of today who have games built around 3pt shooting start coming into the league, things will keep snowballing.

Moving the 3 point line isn't going to stop meme spamming or the Warriors. I actually like the meme point revolution that Curry has started, because it's showing how important good defense is. The Celtics raped Curry last night on every possession, I've never seen Jae Crowder, Evan Turner, or Avery Bradley put so much effort collective effort into guarding a player.
As a result, Curry shot less than 35% from the field and Draymond/Bogut had to pick up the slack for him. Meme shooting will only be stopped from great anti-meme defense, something that the NBA has lacked since the early 2000s.
Offense only chuckers are going to die out in favor of efficient 3-and-D guys, and that makes me happy.
YOU SPIN ME RIGHT ROUND.
>>64179115
spurs have already successfully kicked off the post-warriors era if you haven't noticed it yet
>>64179222
The game is constantly evolving my man. People that want to remove the 3 point line are basketball commies.
>>64178968
he wont be the only player who can hit 3's. everybody's 3pt% will go down, including meme Curry. curry isnt the only reason the warriors are a 3pt team.
>>64179222
>entire team of olympic level athletes devoted themselves to stopping one team, one MAN, and they still fucking lost at home
Holy Fucking Shit, The Warriors are EASILY the most based team I have ever seen in my life since Jordan's 95-96 season
>>64179222
they played good defense on curry for sure, but don't act like having to start ian clarke and brandon rush didn't fuck up the spacing for the warriors. he still ended up with 38 points and a near triple double
>>64179311
You're stupid
>>64179311
I don't think you realize how much harder it is to hit a 3 from a few feet behind the line, or how easy it somehow is for Curry
>>64179345
They are a fantastic team, every single player on the team contributes every single night. Curry got locked up so Draymond went to work all night and Bogut played his best game of the season. And when Bogut/Draymond can't play well, they usually have Thompson/Iggy/Barnes/Ezeli/Livingston to back them up. They have so many versatile pieces and work so well together they literally have no weaknesses. Moving the 3 point line back isn't going to change any of that.
>>64179222
so what you're saying is...that this isn't the ERA of meme point shooting..it is the rise of THE DEFENSE ERA!
games will be low scoring games like 80 pts will be high scoring according to the new standards.
kawhii leonard will become a meme.
i like where this is going.
A coach with a 25% win record with the team got an extension

your east is good but replace butler with Dwade
cp3 hasnt done shit this season, replace him and replace blake griffin, they are good but havent been worthy of all star status this year...
put in kawhii leonard and rondo....
other than those players, our all star voting was exactly the same.

that was more because of the awful meme hawks having too many players there (more than 0)

Blocks and steals are meme stats
>>64180621
wew lad
>>64180637
Unless you're averaging 4+ a game of one of them then it really isn't that big a deal
Same with turnovers. If you're averaging around 3 or less you're fine. Any more than like 3.5 it's a bit of a problem
>>64180683
Retarded as shit desu
>>64180683
Averaging 3 turnovers means you're a liability on offense and blocks prevent baskets whether or not they are going in. 1 block might mean a trip to the other side for 2 more points.

>>64180773
I really meant to say that blocks and steals are no way indicative to how you are as a defensive player
Kawhi is a great defender because he hustles as an on ball defender and makes smart adjustments off the ball
His steals are another bonus, but there are some great defenders that don't rack up steals
Meanwhile curry leads the league in steals and he's an above average defender at best
Same with blocks. You think blocking 2 shots a game versus blocking half a shot per game is that important when there are like ~90 shots that go up a night?
Ryan Anderson is a fucking FAGGOT who cost me the win for my fantasy team this week.

>>64180491
numbers dont mean shit, boogie puts up numbers all the time, no ships, no playoffs. no nothing. You have to win when it counts. i can literally go outside and get those numbers right now.
lets take a look at kawhii, literally clutch, carrying duncan (like he's been carried his while career) and the rest of the skeletons on his back while Aldridge settles in. Bledsoe, carrying the phoenix literal whos, now that what you call a best season, never seen those type of numbers from bledsoe and they have been going on some win streak even without chandler.
Rondo? literally revived his career in Sacramento, people are talking about him now, double double every night, and triple double threat whenever he steps on the floor. Could be considered a top 15 even top 10 PG in todays league.

Tim's been limping slightly for years when he's just moving around the court.
But he'll never go full Kobe. He's playing less and less each year, passing the torch instead of hogging it to himself while stressing his aging knees as little as possible.

this is going to comedic in the playoffs if this pans out
>>64184630
But this isn't true. The teams that most copied the Spurs approach are the Warriors, Hawks and, Hornets.
All 3 are still very good defensive teams. It's not like the Spurs ever stopped being a good defensive team. They erased Wade in those NBA Finals during the BEAUTIFUL GAME run.
I still believe in danny green
Hawks have only scored 25 at the half? The actual fuck?

>>64185257
ya but that means it's no longer blacked out on league pass so you can watch it there if you like
>>64184435
yeah
I'm mostly worried about Danny Green
it's really looking like the cold stretch on 3's is affecting his confidence. He's looking to pass on shots he should take, on drives he used to turn into layups, and you can kinda tell he's second-guessing his ability to make the shots and taking rushed sloppy passes instead.
He really needs a couple good games to snap out of it.
>>64185299
It's not showing up. I have Uverse, every game but Spurs. It's still blacked out on the local Fox Sports too.
How pissed off does Popovich get when his team shoots 3's
>lamarcus keeps passing up open shots and tries to pass to danny green cutting on the baseline
the bigs on this team have boris diaw syndrome, shoot the fucking ball
>>64185399
I think pop doesn't mind if the shooter is open he hates contested 3's except from a few players (Manu, Green, Mills)
Everyone else better be fucking taking spot up open shots.
goddamn i missed all of the spurs second half because i had to help a buddy. did anything happen?

Depends. Jungle fever? Houston. Aryan fever? Dallas (but goddamn, that Dallas mentality fucking sucks), and Corpus. Taco fever? San Antonio (SA is very polarizing though. Chicks are either obese and 1-4/10 or fucking top tier 8-10/10s. And only half speak english. Take that as you will). Never been to El Paso, so can't say for sure, but I imagine its like SA with less fat people and more murder
>this shitty fucking Celtics team made up of guys who would be the 6th best player on any other team in the league is going to make the playoffs with a decent seed because they have a god tier coach
ITS NOT FUCKING FAIR
>>64186173

>>64186297

>>64186389
>crazy mix of blacks girls and white girls in all the right places with tan skin
Because they are. It's when they're having white girl mentality that it goes down the drain though.
>>64186297
>El Paso
You talking about...it's beaner central in the middle of nowhere. People literally go somewhere else to do anything.
SA if you're on the north side have some fine ass women, I don't like any asians in Houston...way too many mudsharks in that bitch.
Lower than Corpus..the valled you can get a beaner bitch to bleach your ass with her tongue for a green card.
Why is Kawhi the most valuable young player in the league right now?

>>64186389
That's a really good point. Maybe that explains my taco fever. Of course, I grew up in San Antonio, so that might have something to do with it.
>>64186173
Dude, I never noticed many Asian women in Houston. There's a surprisingly large amount here in Amarillo though, and only 1 I've talked to came here from Houston. And of course she's in my Grad program.
>>64186500
Can't say I'm surprised about El Paso. And sounds like I might need to head down to the valley for a trip. Or am I likely to get decapitated south of Corpus?

I'll keep an eye out next time I head there for a concert. Probably doesn't help that the only part of Houston I usually go to is the Woodlands.

>>64186817
>the nba counts it
oh wait you're still right
>>64186732
It isn't that bad unless you get deep into Brownsville. It's just slow as shit in the valley that SA looks super high class.
In Btown though watch out for the drivers it's basically Mexico light and no one there gives a shit about driving laws.
>>64186924

That explains it. Actually go into Houston and you'll be swimming in Pho
