NBA 2021-2022

Sooooo little respect for my bulls from some of you when discussing the east :lol:. On the previous page they completely get ignored by a couple of you when discussing who’s the best in the east.

We’ve had arguably more injuries than anyone and yet we currently top the division like we have for pretty much most of the regular season.

The press showed no love at the start of the season and didn’t rate our trades. The bulls front office have done amazing work.

Carry on sleeping on us feckers:drool:
 
Schröder's impact on the Rockets last night was crazy. I'd almost forgotten what it was like to have a halfway decent PG running the offence. Sengun had himself a career night. Green looked fantastic and the flow of the offense was just nice to watch. Young team took the best team in the league all the way down to the wire on the road.

You almost gain a whole new appreciation for the game when you stop worrying about winning games and you're just watching young guys develop.
 
Another win for the Nets with solid contributions from Seth and Drummond. KD will not need to be rushed back.

GSW with another defensive nightmare in the 4th quarter. Need Draymond back and quick.

His face looks rounder now. :lol:

He's a bit chubby, no doubt about that. :wenger: But, after an early struggle this season he is back to his absolute best.

Looked way off his 2nd season in terms of stats and now on his way to beat every statistical category he set up before.

I saw people clowning him on twitter. He looked perfectly normal, dressed like a normal bloke. Kids see ballers and think if they aren't blinged up from head to toe that they had no drip.

The majority of them look like clones anyway cause the same stylists throw the same garbage at them. This man chose his lane & that’s commendable in such an insular league.

At the end of the day, you get credit for being an All-Star not some jeans with holes in them.

Wisconsin are a dirty team, not surprised someone didn't want to shake this hand.

Started over a late timeout called by Wisconsin in a very much decided result. Wisconsin coach initiates the confrontation, Howard escalates stupidly.
 


Great fun. Who doesn't love a good draft. Think the best winning team is well deserved, especially after adding Klay, but also Sue who was last had a really good team. Bird - Lebron - Nash - Garnett with Jokic on top of it.
 
Curry went berserk with the 16 threes and 50 points. He apparently broke the record for most threes in a quarter (6), for a half (8), and for a game (16).

LeBron hit a fadeaway to win the game, but was a little insufferable in the post game conference and seemed to lay the ground work for a return to Cleveland.

That's just him in every post match interview.

LeBron really wanted the game MVP so badly since it was in Cleveland.

It was especially sweet that Steph won it since the Cleveland crowd booed him the entire weekend.

These debates around the Top 75 list are very tiresome. All it has done is shown me how disrespected Dwight Howard is, and how overrated Anthony Davis and Kobe Bryant are.

It's strange how much the media hate - or rather ignore - Dwight Howard. Why is that? Because Shaq constantly attacked him out of insecurity? He's been a shell of his former self for what feels like a decade, but in his prime he was a monster.

I expected the Kobe circlejerk to be worse after his death, though. Duncan placing higher than him in both the Athletic's and ESPN's list was a pleasant surprise.

I don't think the list is that bad to be honest. Kobe has always been overrated but he obviously belongs on the list so to me that is somewhat moot. IMLTHO there are three players who definitely don't belong: Damian Lillard, Anthony Davis and Bill Walton. Personally I don't think Lillard should be anywhere near this list. His career accomplishments are minimal compared with some of the players who were left out, Davis is borderline but for me would be excluded and Walton is probably one of the top 75 players to ever play the game but injuries meant his peak was awfully short and scoring just over 6,000 points should not be enough to get you in. In their stead, I would have Dwight Howard, Dikembe Mutombo and Tracy McGrady. If I looked closer I could probably find room for Joe Dumars as well.

I thought both lists (ESPN and the Athletic) were pretty good. I would have had Hakeem ahead of Kobe for both lists, but there's not much else that I think was off.

The consensus top 3 are pretty much the same in every list. Magic has to be somewhere in the top 5, and Russell and Wilt are usually between 4th and 7th.
 
Good all round performance tonight with everybody involved. Expected more from Blazers since they'd won 4 in a row including wins over the Bucks and Grizz. Nice start post all star break.

McGrady is a great shout, totally forgotten it seems, probably because he played for terrible teams. Walton is a ridiculous choice.
 
Last 26s took 18 minutes. No other sport is as broken as nba's last minutes.

Kobe is top ten all time. Deal with it haters.

Tenth is not unreasonable for Kobe, but I doubt he'll be there long. Both Durant and Curry have an excellent chance of passing him in the next few years (excluding injuries), possibly Giannis too.
 
What the feck was that? Nineteen point lead with less than 10 minutes to go and then outscored 33-8.

They should all be ashamed!
