future superstar
Gamely Reminder part of The ℗lan is to get Wardell and Apemond, at minimum, playing in the 4th quarter for all games from hereon out. Celtics, Twolves, Grizzlies, Jazz/Mavericks and Clippers all have bought into The ℗lan.
Reminder Spurs are 10-7 against both conferences Top 4s.
Warriors are 16-2
Reminder ex-fans of the 2012-2013 Miami Heat simply cannot let this regular season go.
Both Spurs and Warriors have yet to play each other with both of their full squads.
1st game- Duncan out, Aldridge still not as comfortable as he his now
2nd game- Iggy and Bogut out, Steph/Klay missing open 3s
3rd game- No Diaw who gave Warriors problems in the 2nd game
God fucking dammit can they just meet in the playoffs already

jesus, isnt it bizarre that these braindead psychotic SJWs have so much influence that celebrities like pro athletes and entertainers know of their existence and actually give a shit about them?
>tfw oc is at an all time low
Come back Hinkie!
Here's what I wanna know: How salty are the spurs?
I mean, if it weren't for the warrior's they'd be the talk of the town.
But not only does their epic season get overshadowed, but they get absolutely destroyed twice by the team overshadowing them. One was a national game.
I mean... jesus, imagine being under that shadow right now.

Only thing I miss are the John Wall webms. Do you guys realize there's a very good chance John Wall is aware of our memes? He did that interview where he starting acting out the "Bruh..." Meme, will he do Mario next?

Is Pop a mastermind coach or a meme?

>>66670561

He's literally the only coach that isn't meme other than Carlisle or Thibodeau. And even Thibs got fired.
>>66671073
Don't forget about randy wittman!!
>Fat Antonio Spurms
How the fuck did Draymond pick up two quick fouls and a technical, and pick up no more fouls for the rest of the game despite playing significant minutes?
>>66670715
A qt gf is nice desu, a lot girls who are hot have self esteem issues and don't believe they're hot.
Doesn't Go Wizards have a pretty hot gf who he dumped nudes of and got b& for a while for?
the spudoras got BTFO again by the warriors. what is pop's master plan?
>>66671400
Yes
But I get banned more for off topic posting
>>66671393
Because he's an excellent defender really, nothing else to say to that.
>>66671420
We all do
And to keep it on topic, will Blake be back in form by the playoffs? At least the second round so the Clippers have a shot at beating them/tiring them so they get BTFO by the Spurdoras?
>>66671420
Do you ban evade?
>>66671477

>tfw no more spurs 72-10 shitposters
>>66671434
I'm planning on actually watching the game later. I don't bother watching late games anymore. Did he really just get focused and play clean?
>>66671500
yes
>>66671500
I fell asleep during halftime so I don't really know how he played defensively. I've just watched Green play with fouls a lot and he usually plays at a high level defensively even with them.
But last nights game? Not too sure, he mighta goofed it and disappeared, he just usually doesn't disappear on defense even with fouls though.
>>66671393
Kerr sat him down to clear his mind in the first quarter
What does it mean if you have crazy feet and "playing defense with his hands"? Are they good/bad/neutral comments?
>>66671550
means you are an active defender which is great
>>66671550
bad
it means you have terrible footwork and rely on your hands to slow down the defender, but that usually leads to fouls
>>66671578
I've been told that playing defense with your hands means that you're lazy/unable to move, you should be playing defense with your body, since if someone runs into your body, they've fouled you, they run into your arm or hands, you've fouled them
Lmao did anyone not fall asleep during half time? Other people told me they fell asleep watching it too kek
>>66671603
No one watched that shit except for maybe Brazil
>>66671550
>Crazy feet
Good footwork
>>66671550
>"playing defense with his hands"
Having to stop the player you're guarding with your hands, because of bad footwork or being slower or weaker.
>>66671603
the spuds were getting btfo in the 1st q. all the shitposters went away after the 2nd q
>>66671603
I don't really like the warriors or spurs. I only really stay up for the Timberwolves, Knicks and Cavs.
Golden State are entertaining but if I'm tired during one of their games I'll just go to bed I don't really care about their outcome.
I can't see anyone else beating them this year which is sad. The only hope for Kevin Love to get a ring is if someone else knocks out the Warriors in the west, which probably won't happen.
Of course, they have to get past the raptors and heat to get to the finals anyway.
>>66671578
>>66671589
>>66671593
>>66671628
Thanks for the (You)'s lads
I find it funny that my team mates were telling me I did a good job but the one player I guarded said I play defense with my hands. He called foul multiple times and I remember one of them he said I pushed him as he drove in. It was the first time someone called me for that. Is he just soft?
Any good tips/vids you guys used to improve footwork?
How many Ts is Drayemond away from a game suspension?
Any bets on which series he first gets it?
>>66671663
he has 11 so far. 16 for 1 game
>>66671649
only bitches call fouls in pickup, fouls need everyone to agree it's a foul, if it's only him then he's a soft ass bitch
as for footwork try skipping, it'll get you coordinated and fitter
>>66671649
It's a pickup game. Only flagrants and awful reachins and slapstrips are fouls.
Tell him to grow a pair if you see him again.
>>66671663
Technical in the second round against the Cloppers.
>>66668512
>I remember reading that he was on pace for it but he was like 100 away
>Look it up
>He's going to have the record for most turnovers in a playoff game and a season
>He's had 1 (ONE) no turnover game this year
Absolutely disgusting
>>66671690
>reachins
when we play we only call flagrants honestly. nobody cares about handchecking or stuff like that
>>66671649
He's probably a bitch, unless you really hit him hard/hit him while he was in the air It's not a foul in pickup.
Playing d with your hands is considered kinda dirty though, avoid it if you can
>>66671703
who currently has the record?
>>66671705
Nah I meant awful reachins, like the kind where someone literally slaps your hands and arms to take it from you.
>>66671679
>>66671690
>>66671711
Thanks again
He was a horrible player. I beat him on 1v1 after everyone left. 11-6. He thought he was Steph curry when we played teams and kept bricking or shitty drives; a ball hog. I don't call fouls. I let the defender call it himself.
>>66671676
Five more Ts is a record chase I could get behind.
>>66671691
Shit CP3 probably keeps a tally of opponent Ts and already has it gameplanned. Maybe Zaza contributes along the way. I don't know enough about Utah's roster to spot their hotheads.
>>66671713
James Harden and Artis Gilmore tied at 366
How do we fix the game to deal with the Curry problem?
>>66671663
Technicals are reset for the playoffs, during those it's 7 Ts for a suspension. He may have to serve one finals game if the rounds before have been coasting (he can keep his Ts down in truly crucial moments)
>>66671796
>Technicals are reset for the playoffs
I was about to ask why aren't Ts reset, good lookin out. Mavs' remaining schedule are more difficult than Jazz's, they're 44-38 and 43-39 respectively right now. Looks like Dreyemond is drawing a Zaza 1st round match-up.
>>66671550
Playing defense with your hands is lazy defense. You play defense with your feet, moving to stay in front of your man, etc.
>>66671769
Extend the three point line or abolish it altogether
>Which NBA player has she had sweaty, raunchy, dirty sex with?
Trick question, she's had that with me and I'm not an athlete
>>66671914
Extending it will probably be worse the dude can hit from 5 feet behind it
>>66670098

You now remember Sean Kingston
>>66669900
Spurs are autismo and don't give a shit about attention. The only thing that matters to them is winning the title.
>>66671865
I hope the dubs play the jazz. We probably won't see a 2007 mavs vs. Dubs type upset but the jazz probably have the best chance of slowing the Warriors down for subsequent opponents. Rick Carlisle is a good coach but the mavs just don't have the players necessary to trump gsw. Utah has gobert, favors, white lebron, etc

Does anyone else think the Clippers are gonna do a sign and trade with Blake for KD in the offseason?
It makes sense desu, both are top 10 players KD wants to be a superstar and can witness what happened to CP3 when he moved to LA, the Clippers are a contender, CP3 will get him the ball more than Westbrook, the Thunder can play small ball with Blake and Ibaka in the Frontcourt, and Blake's from Oklahoma
>>66672976
>both are top 10 players
lol
>>66672976
>makes sense
nope
>>66672976
What happens to Ibaka and Kanter?
>>66673011
CP3
MLE
Durant
Jordan
That's a pretty good starting 5, better than what the Thunder are putting out at every position. The Spurdoras outside of Kawhi are getting old and the Memeiors are flash in the pan
>Blake Griffin was not a top 10 player at the beginning of the season
>>66672770
Hayward seriously has the talent to be white LeBron but he's too much of a beta bitch and a choker. That missed game winner at Butler must have broken his mind or something, because every Jazz game I've watched that comes down to the wire, Hayward disappears.
>tie game with 20 seconds left
>Hayward has the ball and the hot hand
>everyone expecting Hayward to shake the defender and take the jump shot or drive to the rim
>he panics, sloppily dribbles around for 15 seconds, then either chuck ups a last second brick or kicks it to a completely guarded teammate who then has to heave up a shot on a prayer
this has happened multiple times this season, he has a weak mindset and completely falls apart in the clutch. I guarantee every Jazz v Warriors game will be super close until the last 2 minutes, then Hayward will throw the game every time and the Warriors will sweep the series.
I want to be wrong on this tho, I would love to see Hayward achieve his full White LeGod form since he has the ability to do so.
>>66672976
KD can go there as a FA if he wants ( I doubt it).
what does Griffin have to do with anything?

>>66673148
he is skilled, but do you think he has the athleticism? LBJ's body is much stronger.
>>66673158
Literally nothing delusional with that post..
>>66673158
what 10 players were better?
>>66673175
He's probably the most athletic white dude in the modern NBA, besides Miles Plumlee or Pat Connaughton. Both those guys are scrubs in terms of basketball skill, so Hayward is the best combination of skill and athleticism in a white player right now. You're right tho he's not as big as LeBron, by White LeBron I'm kind of implying that he's a poor man's version. He can legit blow past pretty much any defender when he's playing well, and he can finish at the rim even if he gets bodied up or takes a lot of contact.

>>66673235
>Miles
Poor man's Mason tbph
>>66673166
That's all well and good except the Mavs getting the sixth seed puts them against the Thunder ya doofus. Blazers are playing Clippers in first round anyway.
can anybody here play the pointforward better than me?
>>66673250
2bh my greek hinkie friend idk if that will help him. Utah's supporting cast is actually pretty good and complements him well. the problem is, like I said earlier, his mental stability. he has the skill to be a superstar but he doesn't have the confidence or the mindset. if the Jazz make the playoffs this year, this will be the first time Hayward makes the playoffs as the #1 option on the team. so maybe if he delivers a good performance, it will help him get some confidence and achieve that star status. idk man, I feel like Hayward should have developed by now, hes been in the league 5+ years now
>>66673284
Mason is a million times better at basketball, but Miles Plumlee might be the most athletic player in the league. before you meme on me, look at his draft combine numbers. he's a 7 footer with a 40 inch vertical. that's fucking unbelievable. keep in mind DeAndre Jordan's number at the same combine was 30 inches. it sucks Miles is so shit at everything basketball related, waste of athleticism
>>66673269
the Chicago Bulls will make the playoffs.
>>66673390
he actually did it the absolute madman
>>66673334
fug you're right, mavs need to go 4-0 in the scenario to surpass Blazers. welp back2thelab again
>>66673346
How tall are you?
>>66673346
I bet I'm a better point forward than you

no, im perfectly serious.

>>66673770
For real, man. That was fucking disgusting to watch, respect to Lin, he takes it and you don't see he bitching about it or publicly making it a racial issue, which it clearly is.
Fuck, this got me mad. And to think of all the shit he had to go through in his first few years in the league, pairing that with this discrimination...
Gotta say though, the part about him fouling Harden is nothing about race, that's a foul that will always be called in the NBA.

>>66674002
Also, I think most have always known there was a bit of ref bias against Lin, but the video displays it way too perfect. Notice how the commentators say "did he get hit in the head, AGAIN?", it's something usual for him. It was the same shit in Houston.
>>66673860
No one took him seriously for being some skinny Asian dude from Harvard
Good for him for Jackie Robinson-ing it and keeping his head up
>>66674130
his good boy demeanor and not wanting to piss people off by being vocal about the atrocities being committed to him is not doing him any favors tho
>>66674170
I agree. I also understand the discrimination against him. If I was a Gm and I was told some skinny Asian kid from Harvard with a good boy almost pussy-like attitude was lighting up workouts I wouldn't believe them either
It's hard to be that kind of trailblazer but he did a really great job of just sticking with it. When he started lighting shit up with the knicks was a really lucky break for him too. I'd also say playing in new York was a pretty good way to get noticed
https://youtu.be/ytJW6TmPfK0
>>66673347
There is more to athleticism than vertical. Miles has a high vert but no coordination. Meanwhile Mason still has a 36 inch vert at 7ft but is much more coordinated in everything else.

Which ones is he better than?
Start of the season rankings tbf
LeBron
Curry
Harden
Davis
Durant
Griffin
Paul
Westbrook
Cousins
idk who here, the drop-off is tremendous.
>>66674622
He is top 10 desu
The only players really better than him in the league
LeBron
Steph
Westbrook
Durant
Kawhi
CP3
AD
Harden
>>66674560
>>66674564
He's def better than Jimmy Butler
PG is debatable but I think he's better
Imo he's not as good as draymond tho
>>66674710
Yeah, when I actually think of it, he's better than both
Draymond is a weird case, it's the whole stardom vs skill vs complete etc
It really comes down to the way you pick your top 10
>>66674641
see >>66674697
and even Harden and AD are debatable
>>66674778
That's the thing about top 10 players in the NBA
Other than the top 3.. 4-10 is debatable on any night
>>66674758
I think draymonds overall game is more valuable than what Blake does, but I agree it's hard to really quantify how good they are because of their overall contributions. But, in my opinion, what draymond does is more valuable than Blake's scoring and stuff
>>66674778
both me btw
I don't think so, AD was top 5 in the league in the last couple of years, don't think you can say that about Blake
Harden is debatable but I think he's better
>>66674828
Wasn't Blake top 3 in MVP voting one year?
>>66674805
I think top 4 is easy
Steph
Durant
LeBron
Westbrook
And I think number 5 is kawhi
After that it gets kind of tough
>>66674858
I think fit AD might be there too, not sure about the gap between the four and Kawhi
>>66674899
I mean, I think steph is the best and Durant is 2
After that it gets a little rough, sometimes I think kawhi is better than both westbrook and LeBron
I don't think ad is good enough to be top 5 yet
>>66674828
Harden isn't bad at all, easily one of the best in the league, the Rockets on the other hand are total garbage
>Ariza
>Montiejunas
>Jones
>Brewer
>Howard
he basically carries the team
i had a vision from the future that Golden State will finally beat San Antonio at home.
I don't really catch the pelicans, how good is Davis really? Are the Ls on him or not
>>66674899
AD wasn't elite this season
>>66674934
for me the top 5 is
Steph
Small power gap
LeBron
Small power gap
Durant
Power gap
Kawhi/Westbrook
I really don't know where to put harden
>>66674950
Harden is Incredible, even his defense is pretty underrated (not good tho)
I don't think giving him the MVP last year would have raised any brow
>>66674993
his only fault is his health. hes not made of glass in the sense that Derrick Rose is, where Rose can go down for the whole season at any given time. AD can go down for a few games at any given time, he racks up minor injuries non-stop. with that said, if AD was not on the team, the Pelicans would have 5 wins tops. he carries the team on defense, gets all the tough rebounds, and scores at will. the only skill he lacks is playmaking ability
>>66673533
I would if he'd stop chucking away our 20 point leads
>>66675125
hello tristan thompson's muscles
>>66675077

>>66675145

>>66675145
hi Gopiss
>>66675174
i mean i want cleveland to do well but their team is just so retarded. it's just lebron killing himself night after night. i'm starting to think he should have never left miami.
Draymond Green or Towns, just for one season?

He's the definition of a homer. Insufferable to talk to or read his blatantly retarded posts. Also food4lyfe has beeen nowhere to be seen while TTM is everywhere now except for when his team loses or the Raptors win. Seems suspicious.
Do you guys own any merch of your team? I just got this hat for $2.50 lol. I also own a Stephon Marbury Suns jersey from when I was a kid, but those early/mid 2000s Suns jerseys are so fucking ugly I rarely wear it.
mfw people think i'm a tripfag
thanks for the info on Lin guys; that's not nice to say the least, u r right
>>66675239
Just a hoodie
>>66675239
I got a shirt that looks like two shirts stitched together, the top is red and says Washington and the bottom is blue and says bullets. I'll take a picture one day and shoe you guys, it's a real weird shirt
I also have a Washington bullets beanie cap
>>66675236
I'm almost positive that Tristan Thompson's Muscles is a unique poster. Clips4lyfe alternate trips are usually easy to recognize since he's just a shitposter, TT's Muscles seems a completely serious poster. Clips4lyfe was posting under a new trip a few threads ago, but /nba/ has caught onto his shit and he got completely ignored so he may be done shitposting here. The only way I could see a relation is if Tristan Thompson is Clips4lyfe's autistic alter ego, since TT is always so angry and hostile while Clips4lyfe is usually passive aggressive and shy.
>>66674004
sure the Spurs lineup will be a joke, but Denver has to keep tanking to finish 9th from bottom.
>>66675239
I own like 4 Vince Carter jerseys, the Lowry 20th anniversary dino raptor jersey and the new gold and black one but with the number 6 and DRAKE on the back.
>>66675308
Yeah I don't think Ttm is clips either
But yeah both are real dumb. I don't understand how you can homer that hard for a team where you don't see any of their flaws.
>>66675267
>>66675284
>mfw /nba/ has a dedicated Greek and Jew poster
these flags have the exact same colors and they correlate so well, seeing them post in succession like this satisfies my autism
>>66675239
nah, thought of getting a shirt but that shit costs a lot
>>66675334
>4 VC jerseys
based, I hope you have that purple striped one with the red raptor on the front, those are the Raptors' best jerseys.
>gold and black one
those are sick too. getting Drake on the back is lame tho imo. at least you have a Based Lowry jersey tho
>>66675340
He literally thinks the entire team can do no wrong and defends the city of Cleveland as if his shitposting life is on the line. I used to think Lakerfags were homers but TT's Muscles is the ultimate douchebag homer. You can't have a conversation with him at all.
>>66675377
I also own this and an Iverson jersey just because AI was the GOAT back then.
I got the custom Drake jersey because i thought it was funny. Plus it's literally his OVO colors so why not.
>>66675345
adding an argentinian would be so aesthetically satisfying
>>66675450
I like the black and gold jerseys more than the red ones desu
if Pau Gasol leaves, the Bulls are done.
they need to start rebuilding now.
I would first start with getting rid of Derrick Rose.

don't really know what dominance means in this context but 7KT is #1 no questions asked. hes the MJ of /nba/ at this point. these are my favorite posters, idk about dominance
1. 7KT
2. Knicks abusive boyfriend
3. Uncle Drew fat fuck
4. Canadian mom's boyfriend
5. Go Wizards
6. Canada as a whole (including self hating Cloppers fan)
7. OCD if my forensics are right and hes also the QBP image maker. if not then he's lower on the list
8. all foreigners except the Britbong who dickrides Curry too much
9. all the dedicated Bulls tripfags who make a gamethread for every game no matter how shit Da Bulce are
10. the guy who greentexts Spurdora quotes with pictures of /nba/ players wearing fedoras
>>66675693
but IOS is goat af, can't count the number of times I got called a Jew shill for saying that

thats top 5. i dont know if there are 5 more worth mentioning that cause as much shitposting
>>66675765

>that opinion
the best meme this season is the RBL forensics department.
That shit created every single lore
>>66675820
/nba/ wasn't around 5 years ago
>>66675765
7KHinkie, the fact that we were posting with a real GM is amazing
Should we do an /nba/ choice awards?

etc.
>>66675834
gotta agree
most enjoyable by far, probably the biggest too

>>66675847
The same day he quit his GM job was the same day he deleted his twitter and youtube.
I can't believe Hinkie was running the 76ers while checking /nba/ for ideas on how to run a team. We are responsible for the tank.
>>66675834
rbl is eternal
>btfo fattie and hoc in one day

Am I missing anyone?
>>66675898
I was apart of that, and Clips4Lyfe getting absolutely BTFO
>>66675834
kek the forensics department uncovering those 7KT Hinkie relations was 10/10 god tier memeing.
>>66675857
we cant vote on anything here because the ayy81 hahahahaha stalker autist uses proxies to flood every poll. remember when he made that strawpoll "should 7KT leave or stay" and when the results started to come in as "stay" his autism got triggered and flooded the "leave" option with like 200 votes. that autist a literal cancer who ruins any fun thing tries to ruin any fun thing /nba/ comes up with
>>66675673
>Win10
good goyim
>>66675926
I think Hinkie is for sure...i asked around on /mu/ and no one has seen 7kt. His SoundCloud is gone
Windhorst is probable but I'm not 100% sure
steph curry
>>66675972
fuck I thought you were saying Hinkie had a soundcloud for a second
if 7kt is gone, who is the king of us? rbl?
>>66675940
I expect the ayy81 curryfag to shit up every single playoff thread with his LeBron copypasta again.
He did it last season and got alot of (You)s. I think his obsession with (You)s caused him to adopt more gimmicks just to shit up the general.
>>66676027
>7KT
>The leader of us
It was always RBL+C (Clippers)
>>66676027
RBL isn't a single being. It's an entity. It's part of you even if you don't know it. We are all kings.

>I think Hinkie is for sure
i want this to be true so bad but we'll probably never know for sure.
>>66676027
its still 7kt in spirit. 7kt lives on through all of us, he is the incarnation of /nba/ and we are his disciples. no kings, only 7kt and dank memes
>>66676030
fuck dude this post season will probably be pretty hot too, i can already envision the influx of casual /nba/ posters and newfags falling for bait. strap in cananon, this ones gonna be a rough ride

>>66677399
All the pressure will be on the Clips. Blazers weren't even supposed to win 28 games let alone the 5th seed. As a Clips fan you might be familiar with your team leaders inability to produce in the second season, not to mention your two post players that have a tendency to completely dissapear in the final 5 minutes of important games (One of the two has to be benched because he can't make a free throw)

>>66677616
westbrook could go back to the 50s-70s right now and become a god heiled as the 2nd coming of jesus
>>66677468
hes still about where he was at his peak in 2013. the only reason he seems lower is because of Kawhi's rise to elite. Behind LeBron, KD, and Kawhi, its pretty much George right there. Pacers will be dangerous in the playoffs
>>66677546
agree with that he's top 5 for his position. imo he's a top 15 player in the league right now

>>66677680
ehm, did i say they can stand up to these teams?
saying that westbrook would dominate in the 60s is like saying a contemporary army would own the any WWII army.
bball back then was seen as mainly recreational- virtually all players had summer jobs.
they even have to travel around the country on cars fro crying out loud and pay for the gasoline themselves.
this means the pool of ppl interested in a pro career was way more limited. iirc cousy was initially a taxi driver, and thought he would be better off this way.
also, the support (both technical and in physical training) those players received is a joke by today's standards.
and what's more, these ppl laid the foundations: it now seems such a banal thing to make, but it took a coosy to make a behind the back pass, and a russell to show how a big should defend.
now all these things seem obvious, but only because these guys did it first.
who is the real genius? the guy who invented the pass or the one who copied it? (rhetorical question)
this point is made even more clearly if you look at the history of chess. each generation built upon the achievement of the previous one in the most literal sense. they studied what the previous player did and made it better.
the present generation is objectively the 'better' but the earlier ones are the indispensable ones. without them there would either be no bball at all today or it would be an entirely different sport.

I'm glad you're actually able to admit that your team drafted a guy with down-syndrome, that's a big step. Now if you can just work out the rest of your delusions you'll be able to contribute to society in a positive way.

Anyone watching Miami now?
If a player averages 30/10/10 and shoots 53% from the field and shoots 90% from the Free Throw line, should he win the MVP even if his team has the worst record in the NBA (By far)
>>66678370
>Averaging a 30 point triple double and being the worst team in the league
This season the Golden StateWarriors have averaged about 15 turnovers a game and 18 so far in April. Is this a concern heading into the Playoffs?
>>66678178
I thought she was still with him?
>>66678423
april is 8 days old
>>66678370
No. If he carried them to an 8 seed, then yes.
>>66678370
If he has the best stats yeah. It's always weird to me how MVP totally doesn't mean Most Valuable Player, it just means best player on best team. It's especially weird since Rookie of the Year actually follows the rules that MVP should follow: the player putting up the best numbers wins, regardless of his team's success. It just ends up making the award look stupid, since Derrick Rose clearly wasn't the most valuable player in the league in 2011 and Curry clearly wasn't the most valuable player in the league last year.
This year is different, Curry getting the MVP can be justified since he legitimately has the best numbers in the league overall.
>>66678370
the age old question.
Most
Valuable
Player
Valuable to what? His team? The league?
I like the idea that its team since this is a team sport. I think it would be tough for a guy to avg a triple dub and be on a team that is on the worst team (by far). Numbers like that elevate teamates to at least a .500 record
>>66678450
I can't agree with the numbers entirely. Demarcus had nearly MVP-level numbers this year but, obviously, he wasn't playing at an MVP level.
I do dislike the "best player on the best team" thing though. I would have given it to Harden last year
>>66678450
The league should reward winning.
ROTY is obviously different because the best rookies start on the worst teams.
If counting stats mattered that much, then you must believe Harden is the 2nd best candidate.
Why is the corpse of chucker bryant worth more than game 7 of the 2010 finals
VORP is objectively the best stat for measuring MVP credentials.

I don't know much about VORP but it seems like it could be influenced by your teammates. If you get put in good lineups that always give you a good plus/minus then wouldn't that inflate your VORP?
I personally think he'd do well as the Knicks coach. How about you guys?

check the league leaders and they are remarkably accurate
last year there was only 0.1 of a difference between Curry and Harden and in reality it was legitimately that close

Patrick was at his best during the 99' lock out when he was representing the players (I'm an oldfag). Dude showed up at negotiations with non-prescription glasses and a briefcase that commentators speculated was mostly empty except a yellow legal pad and a few pens. He dropped this quote and the players immediately looked like shit.

Zeke and Stockton didn't flop like a little bitch, so neither is a fair comparison. They also got past the second round of the playoffs so there's that too.
