reminder lebron has a 60 per cent win ratio

Daily reminder that 3-5 is a respectable 60% win rate.

winning 3 out of 5 is very impressive in a highly talented league

Do you ever think about Sacramento drafting Jimmer Fredette and Nik Stauskas 3 years apart

BASED
A
S
E
D

no because all i think about is how amaizng lebron is and how much of a SNEK the rest of the league is

Sauce Castillo is the GOAT don't @ me

his skit was pretty funny but i still cant forgive him for bashing on brodie all season long when hes literaly the son of legod

why do you faggots literally post about the same shit every thread? The Bucksfags talking about Tony Snell's scrub - average ass last thread was better than the last 5 threads combined

the nba doesnt exist outside of lebron and the memeirz

>this thread

hey guys... guess what...

kd and kyrie are SNAKES!

COMEDY GOLD

HOLY SHIT LMAO

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA LEHATERS BTFO

>kd and kyrie are SNAKES!
holy fuck how will they ever recover

Every time

kek good one

...

>7676
sup hinkie

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

dont call them that, that's an insult to the black mamba

What do you say we just close down the general until pre-season? This is pathetic.

sounds like you're a snake sympathizer

These are pretty much containment threads and most non-/nba/ general threads related to the drama are pretty much just as bad. Just ride the wave.

It's kind of crazy to think that the Pelicans screwed themselves over so hard in the Jrue Holliday trade that it's still affecting them to this day. Basically that one single trade has single-handedly ruined Anthony Davis' entire career there.

Hes right and it quite hilarious that some idiot like Cowherd can see behind Curry's fake nice guy persona

>fake nice guys persona

as a guy who studies body language curry is actually a very smug dude. one of those yeah i was born into money and now im even richer

>not trading Lebron for Wiggins

why didn't Shaq have a no trade clause?

he's gonna lead the nuggs to a title

Shaq is a snake

I literally just remembered that the Heat signed Olynyk to 4 years 50 million lol

super hyped for the Olynyk-Whiteside pairing

Kyrie wants to stay in cleveland low key

>as a guy who studies body language

Ok I hate KD as much as the next guy, but everybody is not a snake y'all have to chill

imagine what other boards think of /nba/.

>he's right, you know

In like 5 years, maybe.

>fresh out of highschool in 2014
take it easy, young blood
this general has always been a giant pile of shit

this jokic meme needs to die before anons begin to believe it.

nba.com/article/2017/08/03/player-development-can-africa-can-improve-if-supply-good-coaches-increase

wouldnt food/water improve that shit hole even more?
>muh just got done chuckin a spear in the african jungle
>come home to my kevin durant jersey, hung on the wall of my hut
>get a telegram from muh nba

my counterargument here is just Dikembe and Hakeem

threadly reminders

>kyrie irving is now literally retarded
>kevin durant is a cuck
>lebron james is 2nd greatest of all time, never goat
>mj > lebron > kobe
>rings dont mean shit, especially when 200m contract players are taking 25-30% paycuts to save billionaire jews money
>celshits wont beat lelbron
>lakers wont make the playoffs
>sixers are shit, out first round
>jokic is overrated
>clippers arent making the playoffs
>craptors are rebuilding, fuck you canacucks and your poo in the loo hibab piece of shit in the front row of your games
>knicks are forever cursed
>brooklyn is a shit hole, should have stayed in new jersey
>cavs have no fans
>warriors have no fans

worst fan base rankings(cavs and warriors exempt because theyre either lebron fans/ex laker fans/bandwagons)

1. lakers
2. celtics
3. sixers
4. knicks
5. raptors

another reminder jokic is overrated
tripfags, kill yourselves

i disagree with 2 of these thing listed, everything else seems in order. overall 8/10 post.

lol faggot

whos Americas team?

kings

>this meme that jokic is a meme needs to die before anons begin to believe it.

James Harden is TWENTY SEVEN YEARS OLD and just carried an ENTIRE TEAM BY HIMSELF to the Western Conference Semifinals before getting worn out trying to beat the San Antonio Spurs singlehandedly. His supporting cast was Trevor Ariza, Ryan Anderson, and a bunch of one-dimensional centers.

How sure are we that he's a choking-ass bitch, and not an amazing player who hasn't been in the right situation thus far.

the dude looks like a failed porzingis experiment

Jokic is better than Porzingis right now. It's not close. Porzingis might be an elite player in a year or two, Jokic is an elite player right now.

harden > lebron

After December 15th (when they put him back into the starting lineup full-time) Jokic averaged 19 points, 11 rebounds, and 6 assists per game. That's pretty fucking incredible for a 21 year old.

With Porzingis, so much of his potential is on the defensive end, and he definitely hasn't developed that fully yet. I like him a lot and I think he'll get there, he's a great young player who I love. Jokic is much better right now.

now that the dust has finally settled...

who was the janetty?

Is this photoshopped? No way they were on the same team...

You. They have millions of dimes. You got tendies.

fuck football heat season cant come soon enough

reminder they were beaten easily by lelbron
reminder that lebron was the first to ever come back from a 3-1 deficit in the NBA finals
reminder that hes 3-5 in the finals against a western conference that has been significantly better for over 30 years
reminder that rings dont mean shit

>You're walking down the back alley to your local rec center to get in some reps in by yourself when you're blocked by these two guy talking bout "give me your ball or else"

what do you do?

Who /BBB/ here?

whats /nba/ approved chinese meal

>take a single day off having a fun time
>come back to see the LeBron spammer has literally become Larry and samefagged an entire thread he created spamming memes no one cares about or agrees with but him

I'm sorry but this is too much. I cannot handle two Larry's being mentally retarded. This is just disgusting. WE as a community need to ignore this, from the threads he creates down to any post related to the Warriors or Cavs. Just ignore this and keep this place at least decent.

"what are you gonna do to me? lose another playoff series?"

I'm 100% sure it's Larry with a different gimmick false flagging as an insane LeBron dickrider.

Why the fuck are you people still here. The Warriors automatically win.

Like seriously. What the fuck are you guys discussing?

>the state of this general

warriors are a snake

Thanks, almighty soothsayer who forgot that injuries and basketball before this season still exist.

>samefagging this hard

Not so fast

>implying you didn't use a proxy to make this post
Nice try, Larrold

That's what we're reduced to? Injury watch?

Yes. We want to believe.

I'm just gonna have fun watching Westbrook and George ball out before they both leave OKC and Sam Presti is hung the next day.

Explain why this team doesnt win 50+ this season

unironically best set of reminders in a long time

westbrook imo

who wins in a fight between brian windhorst and steven a smith? mma rules

Uh.... because they're trash and the organization is even worse.

>Jokic is better than Porzingis right now

Tell me why they are?

i agree. Porzingis is a fucking meme

>A roster with AD,Cousins,Holiday and rondo is trash

>Rondo
>Cousins

You can't be this deluded right? Two of the biggest bums in the NBA? Against Westbrook and PG, KD, Curry and Green, >Spurs, and CP3 and Harden?

Yeah 50 wins easy mate. Not even in doubt. 2 seed locked up by March.

>holiday, a PG, and Rondo, a PG who can't shoot and confirmed team cancer with Boogie, another team cancer
>not trash

Literally two centers and two PGs. Worse starting 5 construction ever.

see you in the finals

Who the fuck do the Pelicans have at SF?

And reminder that if your team doesn't have an elite SF you're not even making the WCF.

>that roster is beating the Warriors.

Yeah what kind of GM could fuck that up?

warriors are overrated. Its all mindgames.
