The Official NBA Season Thread: Fries Discourse | Mavs vs Jazz

Nah. That was akajae with that masterpiece.



I had no idea @Iron Man got banned

Don't think he is since you can @ him.

That KaIron Man pic had me weak man.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

what the hell

Did he really say that part about Kobe??

If he wants another shot at the league he deserves it off strength of leaning into being Kobe’s clone

Yeah he got banned. His user name doesn’t pop up when you @ him. I just typed it all out and I guess it just auto @ them. User profile says “banned” too

 

[DeadsetAce]

he been gone forever

RHJ always had an unorthodox game, but I was surprised when the league turned away from an athletic 6'6 forward like him.

Man if they can let Exum back in the league, there’s gotta be space for RHJ

 

[HIM]

Zodogg back in 2023 was unexpected

 

[elpablo21]

Not everybody needs to jump in on this

 

[datznasty]

Because it was and still is goofy as ****. Don’t care if it’s your culture, it was unnecessary to do before a game. Their reactions was the same as mine. I’d be more flagrant with my facial expression actually

And they lose by 30 every time. Maybe a little less synchronized choreography and more basketball practice. What do they think this is, You Got Served? Lil Saint is not walking through that door

Basketball has international reach just like soccer. I'm not denying that the NBA is the best league in the world but I wanna see that claim backed up on the court via international play.

Yea his argument was about the wording and he's right , been weird seeing him getting roasted for it.

Nobody calls the Champions League winner a 'World Champion' in soccer either. They're accurately called the Champions of Europe

Haven't seen anyone arguing that the Nuggets wouldn't beat these other international champs as well, just finding the verbiage funny and a uniquely American phenomenon.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

I mean Denver's best player isn't even from the Unites States. He's from Canada

 

[nick.]

I feel confident in saying Rondae Hollis Jefferson is better than RJ Barrett

RHJ: out of the league
Barrett: in the league

what are we doing

 

[T0INE]

Not everybody needs to jump in on this

Denzel "Carlton" Valentine

It's a combination of American exceptionalism, arrogance and also living in bubble.

EYE stand corrected then.

Bingo

He's also coming at it from a global perspective since he can legit call himself that after beating the best athletes from all over the world in his respective sport.

Been wild seeing folks dismiss him and turn the greatest American sprinter of the last couple generations into a punchline over it

How's that different from the NBA? By his logic he's the champion of the Phillipines

Yep. The American professional baseball championship series has been called the “World Series” since there were like 8 teams total and no other country in the world played the sport. Completely ridiculous.

Not when he beat every other top national champion in the world championship tournament

He's a literal world champion. Unfortunately there isn't that sort of global tournament for basketball teams outside of international basketball for countries (FIBA/Olympics).

I'd love to see it one day personally, there's already a format to be inspired by in the Club World Cup in soccer where the best teams from each continent play each other in a knockout tourney.

 

[Manny Fernandez718]

RHJ: out of the league
Barrett: in the league

what are we doing

Barrett is a nice role player, should be a spark off the bench on a good team

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Not when he beat every other top national champion in the world championship tournament

NBA has representation from 40 different countries and creeping up on 30% international players. Last 3 MVPs are gringos. Elite athletes from all over the world compete in the NBA. It just happens to be hosted in North America like FIBA was hosted in the Phillipines

 

[TimelessClassic]

RHJ becoming a Kobe impersonator overseas is wild...I don't recall his game ever resembling Kobe at all in college/the NBA. Dude is embracing it like the Michael Jackson impersonators in Vegas

Might have to do with his dismissive tone
