The Brooklyn nets are a half a game away from having the best record in the nba

Lebron
Embiid
Giannis
Steph
Jokic
Zion
Luka
Tatum
Ja
KD

All mvp candidates. Not even counting tier 2 guys like Booker and Mitchell.

Why is this eras stats inflated when guys in the 90s played more minutes? Guys in the 80s played more minutes at the same pace? Guys were legit in the league to foul and be tall

The paint is wide open and refs as whistle happy as ever. You could probably sneak 4-6 points in a game today assuming you play

 

[MVP]

The masses really are bored with Gianni's greatness, this may be his best year yet and it seems like at best he's 3rd in most straw polls for MVP right now.

 

[youngwolf]

Guy said hes gonna spend the 20 bands on his race car. And he has on Hey Dude shoes

Going fast > nice shoes.

That 20k is going to go fast, though. A decent blower or turbo setup is going to run him 5-10 grand.

Seems like everybody took that Xmas night jokic game and decided they wanted to 1up it.

Defensive schemes have advanced. Yeah the league took the unnecessary hacking out of the game but it’s only a layup line for the elite and even still you need to have a finishing package. Just like it was a layup line in the 80s if you could just dribble between your legs. Guys are just better.

I wouldnt call making the easiest shots even easier advances in defensive schemes but to each their own

Jazz and Kings would be a good *** series

basically last year's Grizz-Wolves minus the million bonehead plays

 

[noblekane]

all young boys and the future of the nba except for old bron

DFOX GOT DAMN

 

[addict4sneakers]

Fox a milly

 

[MVP]

Nash should never get another coaching job

 

[clyde the glide]

See right there. A pf just let a pg dunk open uncontested in a close game under two mins. Thats perfectly ok

 

[nelson999]

thats a ******* pathetic call that Clarkson just got. NBA officiating is so ******* bad right now

 

[VARNELL HILL]

Kings better pull this **** out in regulation. Need my money back on this Under after that BS the Celtics put up

I wouldn’t say smarter but yeah this.

Even on the last play. The paint was walled off. Clarkson was hand checking. Fox got to his spot and pulled up. Vintage basketball but if you only see the blown coverage and a dunk then you think it’s easy

marcus smart with the "we are down by a million, so i might as well get tossed"

He went to school an hour away, probably has friends here still. Get an early shower and you can get out the arena at 930 soon as the game is over unless Boston are one of those straight to the airport teams then best case you got them tickets and you can come holler before you leave. Same of course with 405 legend Blake Griffin-Rhoades

 

[noblekane]

why dont the jazz just quit already

i hate this fake mark jones the kings got when mark jones cant call games

 

[VARNELL HILL]

You have got to be ******* kidding me
