Will the Lakers be OK if they lose their pick? I'm not sold on Randle but Russell and Clarkson seem like a good young backcourt
Lakers need

Whiteside sees to be the best choice
>a versatile 3 with a shot
Ingram?
I like Simmons but if we draft him we'd have to move Randle.
Oh and don't forget about Larry Nance Jr

I don't get why Lakers fans think they are getting a big name free agent. No veteran wants to go play with rookies. Yeah they'll probably make playoffs but they'll just get eliminated easily and it'll be another year wasted for the veteran.

Naw they won't
>>67629256
Because the team's location is regardless, it's only the organization that matters.
And the Spurs and OKC have developed into great organizations. Mainly because Spurs developed itself and set a standard for others to follow, and OKC follows that Spurs system.
Cleveland is still a shit organization and only has a good coaching staff due to LeBron's presence and influence. As soon as he left and before he came you could see how bad they were.

Come to Greece homie.

>>67629458
Shouldn't have put it that way, I mean no offense. I was trying to say that a life essentially being ignorant of the world or its problems along with having money is vastly better than having a great understanding (or atleast critical arguments) of ethics, metaphysics, logic, etc. that lead to severe depression since it probably could turn the dalai lama himself into an existential nihilist

Impossible. They'll pay debnts after the US does, which is never happening.

>>67629569
Thankfully the US makes its own money so can literally pay off any debt it needs to
>>67629500
No it isn't. Depression is just the halfway point to enlightenment. Once you realize that life essentially has no meaning and that "you" don't exist then there shouldn't be any feelings of sadness left. You begin to live life without fear and everyday becomes a new day to do whatever you want.

Bogut is overrated as fuck.
Schröder hasn't proven himself yet and can be streaky. Dragic is a way better floor general, is more consistent at being a scorer, and handling pressure better.
Tony Parker is old too, younger guys need more love. The Thunder series should have shown you that.
I'd take Adams and Kanter over Bogut any day. He's not even close to being the best international center in the league.

>>67630124
Let's be real here, they wouldn't sweep the cavs.
Nice try tho. Matchups wise Cavs are pretty equal with the Thunder so it usually comes down to who is shooting the three better that day. Usually when OKC are matched up with a smaller team they dominate the glass and punish them for going small and if they are against a big team they match them as they're one of the biggest as well. Then you have the fact they have one of the most dominant wings in basketball history with KD and Westbrook, but their backcourt is a little weaker due to Dion's streakiness.
Tristan Thompson, Kevin love, Shumpert, and JR, are all big guys that can shoot well from long range. Something all of OKC's bigs don't have.
>>67630134
>/SP/
hi newfriend
>>67630200
And with the Raptors their backcourt during the regular season is the second best imo, Raptors haven't won against OKC because their shoulder is weak and they do well at guarding Lowry and DeRozan with Dion/Westbrook, and Roberson.
I think Raptors even in their shitty playoff form would have gotten at least one game.
This injured Heat team would have been swept tho.
>>67630202
Heya frog
>>67630200
Lebron vs okc is 3-12 senpai in the regular season. not even counting heat in 5 in the finals.
>>67630134
also i can tell you normies don't exactly like gay people, idk where you got that from
you notice it even more when you're undercover (you know what i mean by this)
>>67630258
i meant to say that OKC vs Lebron is 3-12.
is everyone ready for the Stubhub 76ers to unleash their wrath on the league?
>>67630264
We should filter all non-americans
One of the reasons I think the Thunder are doing so well right now is because of that game one against the Spurs.
It exposed their lack of hustle and commitment as a team at being consistent and it really drove the point home to them that they were kidding themselves if they actually thought they could win a championship, just like KD said in an interview.
It's because of that blowout they had to meet and rise above the challenge that is the Spurs and they did it marvelously against all the odds.
It's because of that high pressure situation they've risen above and become better from it.
If they played against the Raptors or Heat they would probably still have the same problems they had in the regular season
>>67630285
the Thunder are doing well because they were actually allowed to play physical and abuse the old-ass Spurs. Doubt they'll get that leverage against GS.
>>67630282
how about i filter ur mum m8
>>67630258
>>67630269
And every time the Cavs were killing them with three point shots.
In this game alone you had Cavs 10-23 3PT and OKC 5-21 3PT
http://espn.go.com/nba/matchup?gameId=400828711
Rest of the games are pretty similar to this one.

>>67630308
>Doubt they'll get that leverage against GS.
That makes no sense. Bogut and Draymond are among the most physical players in the leauge, why wouldn't they be "allowed" to return the favor with Adams, Ibaka, Kanter, Westbrook?
OKC is still just as young and athletic as the Warriors, don't let Curry and Klay trick you, a lot of their core players and bench is filled with veterans and damaged goods like Bogut (31), Iggy (32), Barbosa (33), and Livingston (30).
>>67630365
Stop bullying France!
Which NBA player has shilled the most products?
Is it Shaq?
>>67630387
yeah, why would people think the Raptors (who won 2 of 3 games against the Cavs this season) have a chance against Cleveland? The Thunder (who lost all 3 games against the 73-9 Warriors) will definetly go to the Finals!
>>67630381

>B-but, muh regular season

>>67630474
It's definitely Shaq. He's got 100 brands behind him.
One of the reasons Jordan is so successful is because he didn't water down his brand name by backing tons of products and only stood behind a select few that were astronomically successful.
LeBron has maybe 10 brands behind him now? He did a temporary thing with Sprite, he's on Kia now, there's Nike, what else?

>>67630603
No one could stop GS during the regular season, doesn't make them automatically unbeatable, unless you're from the fucking future and already know who wins.
>Raps are competition
They've had two game sevens against equally shitty teams. Their superstars are choke artists most of the time and they've never been to an ECF.
Might as well tell Cleveland fans to get the brooms out now.

Worst one I ever saw was some middle eastern guy trying to get Draymond to respond about some correlation to the Warriors playing in Houston and the city getting flooded each time. Draymond went off on him and called him out for being scum.
>>67630910
Can they hold a lead in the 4th quarter? Portland couldn't
>>67630931
Warriors get an early lead and hold it until the third, then OKC holds it to the final two minutes, then it's a toss up and one of them wins by less than 5 points.
Screencap this.

>>67630906
so if a team can't win a single game against another and they meet in the playoffs the roles are magically gonna reverse? i don't understand your reasoning
especially when they're going up against a deep historic team who has the best record in NBA history and a 2 time MVP leading them
the Thunder won against the Spurs because they matched up well against them in the regular season, last year when the Spurs lost to the Clippers they were also 2-2 in the regular season
you could say that "b-but the playoffs are different!!!11!!!" shit about any team, fuck outta here
>>67631162

>>67631162
>you could say that "b-but the playoffs are different!!!11!!!" shit about any team, fuck outta here
And it's fucking true you mong. Craptors were number 2 seed in a weak East and barely made to the ECF. Cavs were a number one seed, faced equally shitty teams, and swept them off the face of the Earth. Playoffs are a different animal; competition is better, fans are louder, and the pressure to win or go home is ridiculously high.
>the Thunder won against the Spurs because they matched up well against them in the regular season, last year when the Spurs lost to the Clippers they were also 2-2 in the regular season
The Thunder may have "matched up well" against the Spurs but the Spurs were the favorites to win and demolished them game one and got refballed game two. OKC turned it up another level and got the upset. They can do it again against GS.
>>67631254
>This spurdora excuse
JUST
>>67631162
OKC won because they used a lineup that was only experimented with in the later part of the season. Coaches tend to experiment with lineups in the playoffs because you get time to analyze a specific team and their weaknesses, in the regular season you stick to a main lineup/strategy and stay consistent with minimum changes until the later part for playoff previews.
Never show your hand in the regular season and only feel each other out. You can't take regular season games serious because you don't want a injury and you want energy for the next game. It's a marathon, not a sprint.
While the playoffs are no holds barred.

>all those """"""""""experts"""""""""" who had Okafor rated ahead of Towns
Reminder that last season, the 60W first seed 5 All Stars Atlanta Hawks won the RS series 3-1 against the Cavs.
Yet in the ECF without KLove and a useless banged up Kyrie, they swept them.
You are deluding yourself if you think this ECF won't be a sweep.
I think I agree

>>67631463
It also shows that the playoffs are completely unpredictable and the Raps and Thunder still have chances to win it all.
No one thought Portland would do as well as they did against the Warriors or even make the playoffs.
No one at ESPN thought the Spurs would lose except Chris Broussard of all people. After that first game against the Pacers everyone thought Raptors would lose due to the Raptors shooting slump yet despite that awful shooting they're now in the ECF.

No it means the regular season doesn't mean shit, especially since the Cavs were coasting for most of the way.
Seriously, the Raps will win one game at best but even then, I can't see it since the Cavs are the best 4th quarter defensive team and no matter how much points they trail at the start of the 4th, I can see them turning it around against this pathetic offensive team.
Why is 7kt so pathetic?

By all measures, he had a horrific rookie season. From off the court immature shit, to on the court performance. The stats themselves aren't terrible, but they don't really tell the story about how horrible his defense was, how he was kinda a chucker...and more importantly, how much better the 6ers were when he was OFF the floor since Noel and Okafor can't play together. And then he got injured.
Pretty much deserving of a 9001st spot on any rookie power rankings.

I like that Cleveland is a miserable shithole of a sports city. Deep down I know that no matter how bad things might get for me, I can always fall back on the fact that at least I'm not a Cleveland sports fan. So I really can't have the Cavs winning a NBA title and ruining that.
Thunder wouldn't be terrible, tho I would like to see KD hit FA and if they win it all I think he'd resign there.

Jokic was crazy underrated before he got big minutes the last two months, but we still can't just pretend 3/4 of the season didn't happen. He was putting up 9.5/6 until March while getting exploited heavily in pick and roll situations (perfectly normal for a rookie, obviously). His minutes were low, so when he started getting 25-30mpg at the end of the season he was still fresh enough to make the most of them. KP had a way larger load on both ends all season long, so fatigue set in and his touch started to fade a bit toward the end. Still, his shooting is really the only area he lost ground. He remained a dominant defensive force and finished the season 6th (using generous qualifiers) for Diff% inside 6th feet, among the best at weak-side help, and even came out on top on most of his perimeter switches against guards. That's where the votes really came from imo.

Please reconsider the image you just posted. I'll admit full stop that I'm a Spurs fan so it's a little personal, but for fuck's sake, have some intellectual honesty when posting shit. The image you have posted is horrifically misleading. By the end of the game, the Spurs, with true champion hearts, made it a respectable game and essentially made your image obsolete. Not to mention it's juvenile in nature, with the bottom half representing a laughing individual, but I humbly submit that no NBA fan, fan of the Spurs or not, we're laughing at the expense of San Antonio. Unadulterated fundamental basketball and its shortcomings yield concern, not laughter. Again, I know this is supposed to be a funny site and all that, but please be more conscientious when discussing the Spurs and provide some context.

>>67632758
Not easy but Thunder should be the favourites to win in 6 or 7 games. The only issue with okc is the fact that they don't use as many players in their rotation and they commit too many turnovers. The turnovers is negated by the rebounding and so long as okc stay healthy there shouldn't be any problems with the rotation. This will be the first good/healthy team the warriors have played in the playoffs with curry/kerr so if they win the series then fair play but i can't see draymond/ezeli/bogut containing ibaka/adams/kanter. Plus, roberson will shut down thompson and okc have 2 superstars to the warriors' 1

Is the real reason why James Harden has no chemistry with the Rockets is because of his previous obligation to OKC and being on the same team as Patrick Beverly who injured Westbrook for the entire season for the first time?
I think Harden really regrets coming to Houston but tries hard every day to not let it get to him but there are many times where he just gives up at the expense of his team.
He know he's not ready to be a leader but it's too late now.

I might do this. I want to learn some thinks with Habitat for Humanity.
>>67632944
Harden got traded. It was a salary cap move and he never requested anything.
>>67632944
its because no one on the rockets will check him like westbrook does
westbrook will check the fuck out of you and since harden doesn't have that guy there anymore he just does as he pleases
>>67632961
Which makes no sense because in OKC he elected to be the 6th man and play that role even rejecting an offer to be a starter.
>>67633016
Someone needs to check Westbrook desu
I unironically think JR Smith is better than DeRozan.
They both pretty meh and inefficient as 2nd options but JR's shooting/passing/defense which is all far superior to DeRozan makes him a better role player on a contending team.
Also Lowry >> Irving
>>67633016
Yeah hes got dwights goofy ass
>>67633034
KD and the team do.
He also checks himself. He apologized for game 3 against the Spurs and taking all those shots then passed it around like crazy the next game.
>>67633010
That was such a huge mistake to let him go. They have never recovered since.
>>67633037
Lowry better than irving? Hmm nope
>>67633037
actually I will agree with you on the derozan front. derozan only got hot one game and it was game 7 shockingly.
jr smith gets hotter more games and for longer stretches
>>67633070

I mean theyre in the WCF again and if Golden State wasn't playing such jesus basketball they'd being going to the finals a 2nd time this year.

Fuck everyone we da land now 3-4 but finally the droughts over

How do you go from a team player to this that quickly?
Does he legitimately hate his teammates?
I don't understand this regression.
Is harden dare i say it the least clutch shooting guard?
>>67633037
JR is just DeRozan except instead of streakily chucking long 2s he streakily chucks 3s. Which is better.
>>67633191
he's trapped. he knows he has to play ball and that's why he's statpadding. People talk about the damage done to OKC in the Harden trade but what about Harden?
>>67633037
JR is waht DeRozan should be and DeRozan should be what JR is. JR is from that early 2000s era of shooting midrange jumpers that DeRozan plays

>>67633976
lolno
Raptors are built not bought. Spudoras should take notes.
>>67634126
No you're just blatantly shitposting
>>67634126
take notes about how to need 7 games to put away a bad team and a mediocre team?
i bet they have their pencils at the ready m8.
>>67634159
At least they are in the conference finals. Spurdora organization is at home blogging about Atheism and which big name free agent to bring in since they can't build winning teams anymore.
>>67633976
I've warned them all season...told them not to sleep on the raptors...and look what happened...raptors nations rising...
raptors have more losses this postseason than the rest of the teams left combined
>>67634089
born and raised in da land
Ready for legod to shit all over the raptors
>>67634258
Hope Pipe has one of those nights where he makes every retarded shot
>>67634244
Then bro mucho respect. And i'm honestly gonna root for you guys if we lose. Da land has taken too much shit for the last 5 decades.
Curry > Westbrook
Thompson >>> Roberson
Barnes < Durant
Green > Ibaka
Bogut = Adams
Livingston >> Waiters
Iggy >> Kanter
Speights >> Foye
Yikes
>>67634244
Yet you were rocking a Miami Heat jersey during 2011-2014.
>>67634143
DeRozan, JV, Ross, Powell, Bebe, Caboclo, Wright all drafted.
Cojo is from Toronto and a lifelong fan of the Raptors living his dream.

They should've gone with a local company like Wawa or Tasty Kake to help mitigate bad press. It probably won't matter much, since it's the Sixers, but still
I am going to write this post and leave /nba/ for a while but hopefully my Spurs bros here appreciate it. I'm shamelessly super emotional after tonight's loss. This was probably the last time I see my hero Timmy take the court as a player again. I can hardly see my screen as I type this, I'm going to miss him so much. You played the game how it's supposed to be played. Class, elegance, and sportsmanship. Now, as for the Thunder. Fuck you, the Thunder fans, and fuck the Thunder organization. Never in my time watching the NBA have I seen such sloppy, disconnected, and classless basketball be rewarded as I did this series. And to note before I forget, clean block or no, the refs should've called that foul on that Ape Ibaka for disrespecting one of Timmy's last plays. THEN the fucking Thunder music person plays "Hit the road Jack" to the fucking San Antonio Spurs? Are you kidding me? More respect is warranted when you're dealing with Gregg Poppovich, Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobli. Christ I can't even finish the sentence because it just hurts so badly. Fuck Adam Silver, sorry our team isn't "flashy" enough for you. I guess dribbling around and turning it over like Westshit is what is flashy these days. Timmy does NOT fucking deserve this. I don't pray, but I really fucking hope he comes back next season and gives it one last chance. Please, Timmy. We need you always.
>>67634215
San Antonio is heavily religious bruh
>>67634460
Your OC was shit to begin with. A dick isn't at belly button level, memelord
>>67629358
5m for a tiny patch. don't worry if this goes well eventually they'll fill the whole fucking uniform up. this is just a pilot program with a shit team before they unleash this garbage on the rest of the league with ticket-buying fanbases.
>>67634460
well you fucked up your own OC it looks like the bitch is blowing raspberries on his belly, not sucking a dick.
>>67634469
So wait a minute, is he saying that Curry IS something that he hasn't seen? That's some Inception type shit right there family.
>>67634498
And yet here you are using it hahahaha
Bow down to your overlord you fucking pleb
>>67634375
>Curry > Westbrook
>Iggy >> Kanter
>Barnes < Durant
at least <<<, since Durant is way better than Iggy and Kanter is better than Barnes
>>67634469
Well I mean he's right. You just gotta make sure he doesn't drive and you're golden pretty much. Shooters gonna shoot no matter what, just make sure they're tough shots and make the shot clock run down.
Lowry>Kyrie
DeRozan>JR
Carrol<Lebron
Patterson<Love
Biyombo>Thompson
Joseph>Delly
>>67634537
well that is gonna be hard cause Westbrook can't defend for shit
>>67634562
at least explain
>>67634527
>canada can't even make a proper image of a bitch sucking a dick and makes it look like she's sucking his belly
you're oc is trash bro just quit
>>67634562
Lmao no
Cavqueers only have 1 all-star hahahaha
>""""""big 3""""""""
More like LeBron and friends
>>67634598
what is there to explain?
kyrie can only score
jr is a poor mans derozan
lebron is obviously better than carrol, but carroll can atleast check lebron
love is better than patterson
biyombo is the same player as thompson but biyombo does it better
joseph is the same player as delly but does it better
>>67634657
Jr can shoot 3's aside from that lolno
Any foreignfags here have to deal with a lot of spurdora buddies? my former basketball teammates all back the spurs. they're the worst form of bandwagoners tbqh with you familia

>>67634657
>jr is poor mans DeRozan
than how come JR has been great in the playoffs and DeRozan being shit
>>67634681
>>67634727
because JR had lebron, kyrie, and love getting focused on too much
the raptors team defense is waaaay better than the hawks and pistons were
Instead of overtime regular season should just do half court shot contests desuyone
>>67634562
Lowry > Irving
DeRozan < JR
Caroll <<<< LeBron
Patterson << Love
Biyombo < Thompson
Joseph < Delly
Ross < Shump
>>67634657
it took the cavs 8 games to beat a shit team and the 2nd best team in the east
it took the craptors 14 games to beat a shit team and a mediocre team
>>67634747
No it's not
>>67634562
Lowry <= Kyrie
DeRozan <= PIP3 (JR is more of a role player but he's eventually as good on the offensive side and a better defender)
PPat < KLove and Carrol < LeBron, that's if you only use one arrow
Good, in form Biyombo = TT, TT is a better rebounder and defender, Biyombo is way more athletic
Joseph < Delly, Delly is a great Passer (really underrated in that aspect), very good defender, very good spot-up shooter and is a team player.
Rest of the bench is better too
>>67634747
>>67634795
Yeah, Hawks D was surprisingly shit
>>67634776
t. that brit that hates the raptors for no reason
>>67634792
>hawks were second best team in the east
why the fuck you lyingggggggg why you always lyinggggggggggggggggg mmmmmmmmmmmmohmygooooooooooooooooood
stop fucking lyinggggggggggg
>>67634795
great analysis
JR is a better shooter than DeRozan
JR is a better passer than DeRozan
JR is a better defender than DeRozan
All true, prove me wrong.
>>67634657
kyrie blocked the fuck out of someone this playoffs. i can't remember which series. he also can steal he's not just a scorer
>literally saying deforzan is better than JR
>>67634831
Well it's not explain how they lost games to the pacers
>>67634831
You realize I'm the only that is agreeing with you on Lowry being better than Irving right?
>>67634838
if dechokezen deserves a max deal so does jr
>>67634827
I can't believe people think Kyrie aka point guard version of Harden is better than Lowry. In what way does Kyrie impact the game other than scoring?
He doesn't play D, doesn't rebound, can't run the fast-break, doesn't hit clutch shots, isn't a leader...i could go on tbqh
>>67634858
>one play makes kyrie a good defender
kek
>>67634861
>explain why they lost games to the pacers but still beat them
what is there to explain?
>>67634873
and? all your other comparisons are flat out wrong.
>>67634831
>needing 7 games to beat the pacers
>2nd best team in the east
thing is, you only get to choose one.
This is why nba is rigged i'm calling it raptors vs warriors. Warriors in 3
>>67634948
>a team that got swept and needed 6 games to beat boston is somehow better
just admit you're biased and butthurt
>>67634935
Offensively indiana and miami were too of the worst teams now note you said that toronto is better than the pistons and hawks defensively so how did either of those two teams take them to game 7's
>>67634935
>doesn't hit clutch shots
approaching dangerous levels of meme here m8
What teams are in the lottery again? Is the Bucks in it?
So Bucks taking it all next season?
>>67635076
not even a chance
>>67635064
Sadly. >We're projected at the 10th slot
>>67635076
You know it
>>67634935
no way other than that, he's an elite offensive tool though.
He's having a way better post-season even if he's not that good all-around.
>Doesn't hit clutch shots
that's just not true
He also plays D quite a bit, not as good as Lowry though,
>>67635093
So yes? Who can stop them?
>>67634562
Kyrie > lowry
Playoff JR > "playoff" derozan
Lebron >>>>>>>>> Carrol
Love >>>>> Patterson
Thompson rebounds >>>>> biyombo
joseph > delly
fix't that for ya
>>67635076
After Horford leaves and Schroder keeps improving Atlanta will trade Teague for Monroe and the Bucks will use either Henson or Poeltl at starting center.

when youre breaking 3pt records for playoff games, defense doesnt really do much against that
LeBron has been straight coasting all playoffs. He averaged 30 last year. If he can turn on his GOAT headband game form Cleveland should be unstoppable.
