>nerds butthurt by an OP
lmao

terrible thread

Kyrie did nothing wrong. Literally beat LeaveBron at his own evil, selfish game. If Ainge and K. Love weren't dummies, he'd finally learn the true meaning of 'muh no help'

Serious question, what do you get out of calling others who haven't harmed you in any personal way a "snake?" That's like the epitome of inferiority.

op browses twitter way too much

kawhi leonard is the best player in the national basketball association

Hey guys, no fucking way, so i was playing pokemon go and i got a buzz on my phone as i was walkin saying a pokemon appeared, Kevin Dursnakemon from the GSW region in kanto

i opened the app and look who appeared. my pokedex said snake type. he was easy to catch i threw a berry, a banana, and a contract for reduced salary, he totally went for it.

hey snake lover, u here?

trying too hard

take my upvote haha

>this thread

>finally

yeah he had tons of help the first 7 years in cleveland

can the 88-90 pistons beat the 96 bulls

is Lebron even top 10 if he never wins another title?

everyday I look at this for atleast 15 minutes

...

too bad pacheapshot ruined their season.

fuck pacheapshot

mfw watching that game

>sanatonio cucks actually believe they couldve won that series

youtube.com/watch?v=zdk2gYeNvPc

up 20 by the 3rd until kerr called the zaza play.

let them live the lie. It's fun watching how mental illness works

Imagine if Spurs had gotten Beverly. They couldn't trade Pau Gasol for him? Pau shot over 50% from 3 so he'd be perfect for them

pau pau in Hueston?

CP3
Harden
Melo
Gasol
Capela

nah he's too slow for that offense, and the don't do the whole pik n pop do they?

>bev and kawhi
that'd be criminal

Ryan Anderson's only job is to sit on the 3pt line and create space basically. I think Pau could fit that fine

Beverly
Bradley
Kawhii
Porzingis
Gobert

how many titles?

Beverly
Green
Kawhi
Milsap
Gobert

i forgot to say that these guys are 2 way palyers, and it's not even an impossible idea, the most expensive would be kawhii and porzingis and gobert, but big threes are affordable now, and beverly and bradley would come cheap.

who would've been finals mvp if the warriors won in 2016?

Prozingis is not great defensively. If we're talking just rim protection then he's decent but you already have the best rim protector in the league with Gobert so it's a bit irrelevant. Better to have a PF who can protect outside the paint like Green. He's not great from 3 but with everyone else you should be fine

green i mean meh, spurs should give a pick to get Shumpert, could pop turn shump elite?

Bradley is decent but they need a decent 20 pt scorer other than him, take millsap over porzingis.

bev, AB, and Kawhi will provide enough spacing without needing porzingis

Bev
Bradley
Kawhi
Milsap
Gobert

Green is better defensively (even made All NBA Defence this year) and a better 3pt shooter (38% on 4.6 shots vs 36% on 3.4 shots). The only thing you really get with Shump is he's a bit younger

>like Green
would rather take Jae Crowder

Why? Even if you think he's a chimp and a millennial you can't deny his talent. Not only that but you team didn't have a single good playmaker which Green can also provide

>Bev
>Bradley
>Kawhi
>Milsap
>Gobert

i never liked Millsap, idk why, he's just boring. His game is efficient and what i'd want on a team but I'd replace him with aldridge.

Bev
Bradley
Kawhii
Aldridge
Gobert, pick n pop, pick n roll, fastbreak, #1 defensive team in the league, and a middle of the pack offensive team. Basically a team built for the post season.
never! take my original team and take out porzinger and put in Lebron James.

Considering GSW and the Big 3 heat have only won 2 probably not that many if any at all...

milsap can pick and pop, handle the ball on a fast break, shoot the three at league average, and he shits on lma on defence

>LMA
>Two way player

if you can post highlights of his best game of last season, ive been trying to figure out whos better, and well, id take aldridge just for his shot.

You can't judge a player like that. but here is a game from the playoffs

youtu.be/Kv2aXTZrVEA

they lost because Howard was averaging like 6pts 8rb

Aldridge is trash. Did you not see him in the playoffs? Milsap is superior to Aldridge in every way

theres not one single thing millsap does better than aldridge

thanks for the laugh

aldridge has accomplished way more than millsap

like i said his game is efficient and clean. you can tell he works on his game, his scores in different ways unlike aldridge but i dont see that dominance, like blake girffin. He's forever going to be a 3rd option. id still take aldridge, even if he plays like a bitch boi sometimes.
>Did you not see him in the playoffs?
i try to remember everything that happens in thep layoffs but i cant. desu the only thing i can remember from the top of my head is how kawhii got injured, and kevin love in game 3 of the finals where he had a monster game 9possible game 2 i dont remember)

nigga, milsap averages more pts assists and rebounds, is a better defender while playing with a much inferior team, lamarcus is a choker.

your just wrong

>your just wrong
If loving Aldridge is wrong, I don't want to be right.

hey man, I have a favorite player too, I'm not bias like you

hes not my favorite, i just prefer him over Milldew

>that guy during pickup who posts you up everytime down, grunts and gets a little too touchy

I was watching some old 90s basketball footage and i keep wondering why do all those players and teams act as if they're allergic to the 3pt line? I almost got the feeling that they felt as if taking a 3 was a bad shot even if you were wide open.

for what? he literally does nothing better, especially since the criteria is a two-way player team

90s players had class and didn't shoot memes unless they were cucks like reggie miller

...

Will Westbrook ever forgive Durant

>That kid who shows up to the court late
>You and your friends/randos have already played a bunch of games and are playing one last casual game before you go
>Kid plays as if he's going for the pickup world championship and goes way too hard

This is one of the most annoying things to me

Are big men often more athletic than given credit for?

KD did nothing wrong.

RACKETS

RACKETS

RACKETS

Hard work, it's a beautiful thing.

Damian Lillard is the closest you can get to being Stephen Curry right now

millsap chokes harder than Aldridge it's just that nobody other than /nba/ hipster autists give a fuck about him

he will have to when he leaves too

Who is your favorite team in the Southeastern Division?

Points for creativity...but why...??

How rare is it that the gap between the best player, and second best player in the league been really wide ?

Ex; " ______ is best player in the league, and it's not even close. He's head, and shoulders above everyone else."

jordan, hakeem, shaq, lebron(not anymore)

>Lebron
What about Kobe?

please respond

what years? he was mvp tier but i dont recall him being so much better than everyone.

Let's be honest...this is the real top 10

10.John Wall
9.Giannis Antetokounmpo
8.Anthony Davis
7.Kyrie Irving
6.James Harden
5.Stephen Curry
4.Kawhi Leonard
3.Russell Westbrook
2.Kevin Durant
1.LeBron James

Lebron
Kawhi
Durant
Curry
Harden
Westbrook
Gianis
