**OFFICIAL 2019 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD**

[Vincent Van Goat]

Still....

When you expect him to be a #1 on a contender, especially this soon, it makes it easier to not be a fan

Whenever they get actual above average offensive players I’ll judge him, but for now I’m still fully on board

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

What you think would happen?

I think it could go 6. I don’t think I can convince myself it would be a “snooze”

That Nets @ Heat game next Wednesday is shaping up to be a win-and-in for the 8th Seed.

I've been thinking about going and seeing it. If it's Wade's last game ever would be great to be there.

 

[buc em]

The Hawks started 6-21, with John Collins hurt

and are about to win 30 games. That's wild.

John Collins is a future All Star. Best player I watched in person in Summer League this past year.

So Kobe took 37 shots in 2006?
More attempts and less points than harden still

james gets a lot of his points from the line tho. kobe took more fga...but less fta. Ft's can make your game look way cleaner than it is. Somebody came in here the other day mumbling about james efficiency. He shot like 38% for the game, went like 13 of 34 and had like 36 points or something. and dude was so gassed about how james could turn 34 shots into 36 points.

Yes. 7 less 3s. 1 less free three throw. 1 less point.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Some truly terrible shots. Majority of those don’t go in.

Passing up passing to shoot on 5 people, but thinking the defense is better because they know he isn’t passing

 

[hardens beard]

Tom Shepherd getting interviewed for a GM job and y’all in here talking about a dude who hadn’t played in 5 years.

 

[storm2006]

What's the difference? Seriously?

How do you count the points from a free throw but not the free throw attempt itself? Where do those points come from..?

Kobe attempted 1 less free throw per game tho

Yes.

Thank you

A free throw is a field goal from a designated spot on the court with no defense and the game clock paused. And it's only worth one point. Least efficient shot you can take

If Harden went 0/0 and hit 30 free throws some of you would really try to say he scored 30 without taking a shot

You know how every field goal has to come with a rebound, whether an individual or team rebound because common sense? Same thing with points. Every point scored has to come from a shot attempt because common sense. You can't score a point without accounting for the shot

This is what this little child would mostly do in our practices and before games too. And then giggle and hug onto one of his teammates for no apparent reason. Just to avoid having to actually be seen shooting a basketball. Still doing the exact same **** I see.

What’s the problem here?

towel hoodie...boy not serious. he'll be in turkey in no time.

I just told you what the problem is.

What he did in that clip is mostly all he would ever do in practice and pregame (before games he’d actually be playing in). He’d do that and then just dribble around ******* around and giggling with his teammates about nothing. Ask any of us Sixer fans that saw him in person. He does it on some nervous **** just to waste time and avoid having to actually put up a shot in front of anybody.

Breh he’s just working on his English on the glass. You sounding scorned

What a weird thing to get fired up about.

Didn't you say earlier in the year that the reason you were "obligated" to keep up with Markelle Fultz was because he was on your team?

What's your excuse now?

How do you score a point without taking a shot..?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Ben Taylor has proclaimed that Buddy Hield is projecting to be an all time great shooter. Already

His catch and shoot metrics apparently are extraordinary

Also didn’t realize Kyrie was such a good shooter. Taylor listed him as a tier 1 shooter in the all time ranks. His numbers back it up

Basically this in word form

What do you not realize that I’m saying if any other player in the history of basketball was doing this it would be a non-story? I’ll repeat this for literally the third time in a row..........what he is doing in that clip is ALL he would do in our warmups (before games he was actually playing in) and for the most part practice. This was not something he would just do after going hard in shooting drills and **** when he had free time...it was legit all he would do besides dribbling the ball around the court a little while talking to teammates.

What's your excuse now?

It was on my Twitter timeline, I didn’t go searching for it. If I didn’t post it I’m sure somebody else would have by the end of the day considering it’s the first we’ve seen of this child on a court in like 4 months.
