Liam Cooper
Gracias
Adrian Long
Houston loses to the Grizz, Grizz beat the Warriors in the second round.
Go to the WCF.
OKC beats the Spurs again. Beats the Clippers, who beat the Jazz.
OKC vs MEM WCF: The 2013 grudge rematch.
People literally die in the game it gets so physical.
Jackson Roberts
And then Thunder Cavs Finals, the Finals we were supposed to have
Benjamin Cooper
lmao
Samuel Walker
"sweeps in 5"
Doesn't sweep mean 0 wins for the other team? Did Silver change the finals to 9 games? I'm new to basketball I'm not sure what the rules are
Parker Morris
>newfag
Lucas Morgan
>he doesn't know
Joseph Stewart
lol
where were you when the warriors got swept by the cavs although leading with 3-1?
Andrew Richardson

Please god

How can one man be so ugly. Literally the definition of rat people
Evan Parker

Juan Cooper
If he went to the Cockshits, that'd be a great deal for a first rounder and some players.
Benjamin Rogers
should have called time out
Easton Perry
That boy can shoot tho so it don't matter.
Brody Walker
Question to OKC fans: why are you OKC fans? Im from Oklahoma unfortunately so i have a good reason. I was just curious why they have so many fans on this board.
Jaxson Phillips
Nets don't want role players. They want picks for a rebuild. These guys are desperate.
I don't see anyone giving up 2 first rounders unless one of them is in 2023 or some shit. And Nets need picks for this year and the next 3.
What team needs a center that bad? Portland? Even they know that's too much. They'll probably give up the first they just got back from the Cavs and a couple second rounders. Nothing more.
Two first picks are huge for scrub teams. Maybe the Suns trade Chandler and Bender.
Daniel Thomas
I'm from Oklahoma
And people bandwagon OKC because they were a young brand new team. Same way people bandwagon the T Wolves now and into the future.
Also the players are exciting and so are the games because they're so inconsistent and hold so much potential you could go into the game thinking they're the favorite, blow a lead, comeback, and make crazy tough shots that end up being highlight fuel.
Robert Long

Josiah Torres
/nba/ I have a legit question for you.
I have noticed that it seems like in the NBA, moreso than any other sport, the fans seem to appreciate "watching good basketball" rather than watching their teams so much. Like sure they watch their teams, but it seems like they enjoy watching teams like the Warriors, Cavs, Spurs, Rocket and Thunder for Westbrook and Harden just because they play the game well.
Does this just come from the reality that only 4-6 teams in the NBA are competitive every year and the fans of 20+ teams have no chance at winning a title so they just don't really care?
Nolan Martin
>Does this just come from the reality that only 4-6 teams in the NBA are competitive every year and the fans of 20+ teams have no chance at winning a title so they just don't really care?
Yes, 100%. If you know your team is going to lose why watch? After a a year you just can't stand it anymore because you become frustrated watching it.
Christopher Evans
Old ass news fampaitachi.
Henry Fisher
It's just crazy to me when I see on here or reddit's (lel) NBA board how fans of other teams watch warriors, cavs, spurs games, rockets for harden, thunder for westbrook, bucks for antetokoumnpo
like i cant think of any other league where fans watch other teams games and get invested in them or just to see certain players, especially in a league with so many games
Luis Wright
because basketball is an actual sport, unlike baseball or golf.
John Smith
Basketball is so much more about specific players, since you can only play 5 at a time. Makes sense that they're more of the appeal.
Lucas Reed
My brother lived in Tulsa for a bit. He got me tickets to game two of the finals, and i've been a fan of them ever since.
Easton Perez
This is a cuck sport about enriching niggers to rape white women. Are you surprised it features cuck behavior like this
Ryan Flores
>watch that brief interview of Kristaps Porzingis talking about how most people think European players are soft during yesterday's game and he defends his stance >no one puts up an image of him as a young kid in Latvia sporting cornrows baka desu senpai
Samuel Diaz
A lot of people watch all football games mainly for fantasy and fanduel
Blake Gutierrez
Why do you have a photo of a random little girl on your computer?
Anthony Brown

Jaxson Rogers
If you vote for Kawhi for the All Star game. 10 bots retweet it. Spurodras are getting desperate
Camden Gray
>Brooklyn Grit
As someone who has actually lived in Brooklyn in the last ten years I find this funny as fuck.
Christian Nelson
>he doesn't know how to upload images without saving them
Michael Sanchez
Oh shit, Pelicans might actually trade for him.
They've done this before, waste all their picks on veteran players for the win now mentality and so recuperate their debt and shitty sales.
Holiday Buddy Evans AD Lopez
Levi Allen
While I have no problem with the Heat losing for a better pick, Clarkson is a soft ass nigga
Brayden Baker
Why would the Cockshits want shitty ass Lopez?
Gavin Moore
How do fans of teams not named the Cavs and Warriors feel this season?
Like in all honesty, you already feel completely hopeless with them being so far and away the best teams. Then you see bullshit like this Korver thing where now other GMs are making crap trades just to stack them even more
I mean don't you guys feel helpless? Like it sin't even worth investing time in this league at least until the playoffs?
Ethan Jenkins
AD is going to be fucking gone when his contract is up, isn't he?
Adrian Sanchez
Those actually get saved on your computer, just not on the regular image file of your computer. It's in a specific web cache.
If you just keep uploading using URL you're going to end up with a ton of image folders on your computer taking up data if you don't delete them.
Logan Hill
Ignore him, the Rockets literally have no assets to trade.
Luis King
Because when basketball is played well its fun to watch
Isaiah Bell
are you stupid or just dumb.
Jayden Sullivan
No, Spurs are boring as fuck.
Jordan Nelson
and other sports arent?
Nathan Richardson
swimmingly
John Roberts
Kill yourself, Cletus
Josiah Young
Do you like super teams?
Matthew Wilson
I find baseball terribly boring even though I loved playing it as a kid. Soccer aswell
Kayden Collins
So, when the warriors and cavs go back to the finals again, who wants who to win?
Jonathan Peterson
Derrick Rose or Isiaiah Thomas
Jose Watson
Im done here.
Goodbye.
Michael Mitchell
Following your lead.
Nicholas Bailey
Oh yeah baseball is boring as fuck. I just mean that it's kinda weird to see that basketball seems to be the sport where people are more interested in seeing "great basketball" even if its with teams that aren't their own, or superstar players, than cheering for their own team
John Ross
IT
How is that even a question? Rose got benched for some white dude
Joshua Morgan
Could you imagine LeBron getting shouted at by a lesser player?
Carter Jones
That's not true everywhere. LA for instance since the Lakers have constantly won has plenty of people who just watch the Lakers and only watch the Lakers.
As for online, I think it has a lot to do with the fact that basketball allows the fermentation of personalities
Sebastian Young
Who's better?
Ayden Stewart
>who wants who to win?
Brayden Martin
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out, faggot.
Logan Howard
Can harden surpass Kobe ?
Kevin Phillips
No because LeBron rarely ever makes the "wrong" basketball play. He might not execute it properly or miss the shot, but that's better than chucking a 30 ft 3.
Josiah Hill
>Anthony >not the biggest stats bab to ever exist
Wyatt Thomas
Mavs listening to trade offers for Wesley Matthews. what should we trade him for?
Hunter Butler
WE DID IT, THE LEAF IS GONE
DANCE PARTY
Logan Reed
Zinger is already a better overall player. His D on Giannis and rim protection is why they won yesterday
Asher Campbell
...
Josiah Wright
This
LeBron plays the game how it's meant to be played. Meme shooters just turned their 3 point up to 99 and chucked all game
Isaiah Wright
Is there any reason drayboon doesnt learn post moves? Hes a pf and and doesnt do any offense besides passing and shooting an open 3
Evan Gomez
Because he plays on a meme team.
Nicholas Adams
He knows post moves but he's undersized so there's no point on using in on any player bigger than you. You don't post up on bigger guys they'll block the shit out of you.
Ian Perry
he's good in the post but why would you have him in the post when you have KD, Steph and Klay on the same team
Connor Thomas
Hes always playing center and would get destroyed if he posted up opposing centers.
His main skill is playmaking and defense. Major system baby desu. If he got a real jumpshot warriors would be unstoppable
Dominic Stewart
Do you even Charles Barkley?
Jeremiah Gonzalez
Lol. People post up guys bigger than them all the time. Draymond is just slow with atrocious footwork. He just isnt built with the standard basketball talents.
Hudson Thomas
Barkley could shoot midrange, drive, iso, crossover, etc., Apemond can't and plays center. He only knows how to pass, hookshot, and drive face up from the three and transition.
Don't even compare you fucking scrub.
Joseph Ross
>this thread right now
Robert Jenkins
...
Nicholas Ortiz
because he doesn't need to?
post moves are a skill that takes a ton of practice, he's better off using his handles and strength to drive in tight spaces.
Lincoln Johnson
Do you even go to sleep?
Get a fucking life.
Don't @ me btw pussy.
Gavin Parker
Last five minutes/OT with the score within 5 points James - 58.3% Curry - 47.1% Leonard - 41.7% Westbrook - 39.5% Paul - 35.7% Harden - 34.1% Durant - 28.0%
Thomas Bennett
I'm not gonna front this bitch is sexy I'd fuck her pretty ass until she turned ugly
Benjamin Bell
shocked that Paul is that low
>Durant cramping Curry
not surprising at all
can't wait until Curry leaves for Charlotte next season and I can like him again
Adrian Long
Idk if you're a bball player it would be nice to use bball moves not just run around like an ape tackling people and still get named top 10 player or whatever. Dont they have self respect?
Daniel Martinez
Do you agree with my starting lineup for the East All-Star Starters? PG: Kyrie Irving SG: DeMar DeRozan SF: Jimmy Butler PF: LeBron James C: Hassan Whiteside (If you disagree, make your prediction down below in the comments).
