No ****. Only reason TP and Cam inexplicably kept getting minutes

Kai Cenat getting as much PT has he does is perplexing.

Smh old heads want today's players to be offensively crippled so bad

 

[MVP]

Flag basketball coming to an end hopefully

 

[WASHED KING]

Look at this amazing defense from the 90's

 

[HIM]

- eliminate on ball screens
- extend defensive 3 seconds to 5 seconds
- emphasis on calling offensive pushoffs

 

[danger style]

Ninjas love to blame everything and everyone else instead of just taking accountability of their game being off.

Realistically, Darwin cheated on his ex-wife and probably got ratted out. He don't want no more rodents around him and we know how that boy D'Angelo crawls.

at “Realistically”

The voicebox of the block has spoken (no slick pulla)

It has to make the Celtics absolutely sick that the stars aligned so much for a lot of the Warriors players in that 2022 finals then they regressed after. Given Steph Curry went nuclear but still

Jumped in the game and already has a better sig than everyone else. Even though it’s basically an AF1. His line will be dope!!

The Grant Williams bus throwing might be my favorite subtext of this season

 

[JD617]

Even Deuce Tatum didn't like Grant.

For his career in Finals games Draymond is putting up 12-9-7 while being the best defender on the floor.

Yet people still find a way to discredit his impact for the yellow man. It's NASTY. This is why KD left, you try to give anyone else credit besides Steph who only has *checks notes* 1 FMVP and it's an issue.

Jesus H Christ.. the way some of yall play revisionist history is concerning

One season “yukmouth” is overrated and lucky to play with Steph/klay and the reason kd left, and the next season he’s the team mvp and main reason they have success.

I've never disrespected Draymond. You must have me confused with someone else.

If GS wins in 2016 he would've got FMVP he had 32-15 he shows up when it matters.....Steph on the other hand..

there’s a big omission here —you will only show deference to Player A as a way to dismiss Player B.

It’s not 1:1 but it’s in the same vein of IT saying steph is great, but not a PG, just as way to keep himself in the conversation of one of the greatest PGs

I'm no IT fan.

I've always felt that Draymond, Wiggs, Loon and every other player that isn't light bright on GS do not get their fair share of credit for success.
It all goes to Wardell, Splash Brothers, and Poole Parties. This has been my agenda since day 1, I'm consistent with the narratives I push.

edit) Also the 2016 Finals thread is still very much viewable and the NEXT time anyone discounts Draymond's importance I'm putting all those takes about him being suspended a game on full display if "he's not that important".

That's how the NBA works. Superstar driven league. They tend to get the lion's share of the credit.

A point guards job is to create offense for the team. Steph does it unconventionally. They don’t win against Boston if he isn’t the engine. A true innovator. Just like Magic. Just like Michael. Just like Lebron.

They done with the 90's but use 90's logic to talk ball

I can live with that because they get the lion share of the blame too. Unless you're Steph or a Euro.
