The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[RustyShackleford]

I don't think Lyles intended to troll NBA players with the original comments

He was just saying something petty and dumb that he sincerely thought was an great point

HIM joke about not regarding Lyles as the fastest man in the world was probably the best comeback/jab to Lyles' comments

^^So you’re saying he’s jelly?

There’s tons of jealousy towards the NBA guys from other athletes. They’re the most famous and highest paid Black athletes in the country. Tons of jealousy.

Might be

NBA players get a large amount of hate from other pro-athletes

 

[D StaXX]

WOW!

Easily the money has a lot to do with it. Always comes out when these dudes sit on a podcast and start talking.

 

[spiderjericho]

He could’ve made a comment about all these soccer leagues lol.

Those are technically the highest paid athletes. That one kid got offered three quarters of a billion to play in a local Saudi League. Besides the World Cup, none of the league champions bear the fruit of world champion.

 

[Mark Antony]

He's American.

Anti American lol

Definitely some jealousy. General public has absolutely zero clue who Noah Lyles is. More folks would recognize Bobby Portis. And Portis has way more money.

Nba players got baited. Lyles was just talking and using the nba as a rub to get some attention. Kd took the bait and everyone followed. Basic promo work 101

Good night jabronis

 

[spiderjericho]

Lyle’s dropped a diss track.

true. Messi here was offered $1.6 Billion for 4 years from Saudi. he opted for $50 million per year on a 2 year contract at MLS and possibly some team ownership and stakes at Apple TV. rumors saying the value could be what was being offered by Saudi as well.

I did not know who Lyle’s was until this whole “world champions” brouhaha occurred.

 

[antidope]

SMH. This is crazy.

Honestly think more players could accept it than this coach seems to think. I think people can compartmentalize more than he’s giving credit for, so if there was a woman coach around, dudes would know to dial down the wild talk.

 

[tomdiginson]

SMH. This is crazy.

Yall believe any foolishness they put out.

Need EDG and Team Canada to get a dub tomorrow morning for ultimate chaos.

i’ve been scratching my head for months, wondering who “EDG” is on NT and now that you made the canada connection, im realizing dillon brooks = “evil danny green”

 

[Hijo Del Promo]

Whoever was the first Womans coach, the dudes would do their best to make her and them succeed.

Now the 4th or 5th Womens coach, it maybe different, but that first group, will try to make sure it works.

 

[Hijo Del Promo]

The real question is, lets say we find out the Head Coach and the Star player sleeping together, does it matter? What if they always win?

That could still be happening today
