xth for /ourguy/
Is it too soon to say that Irving > James?

Mamba mentality
Leadership role
young bulls
kyrie sonned the bucks tonight, embarrassing. and reminder aaron gordon is your current mvp.
>those numbers
we out here family
TOP TEN NBA PLAYERS RIGHT NOW
1. LeBron
2. Durant
3. Harden
4. Steph
5. Blake
6. Kawhi
7. Giannis
8. Davis
9. Westrbook
10. Cousins
Disagree with this list and you're a faggot.
why do players wear sleeves to take a picture?
>harden and blake top 5
>you
>knowing basketball
>me
>not gay
>Kawhi being ranked over giannis despite playing 0 games this season
> Durant and Harden over Giannis
Garbage list from a brainlet
I rate Giannis but if he's so good how comes he's stuck in the Bucks for 4 years and no experienced and good player wants to move there and play with him?
He just started averaging over 20pts last year, this is a new development. And he's so young that an experienced player would be too old by the time Giannis reaches his prime.
No idea desu f.am
What I do know is that despite the small sample size, Giannis is currently leading the league in PPG, BPM, VORP, PER, and win share. Just enjoy it while it last.
>how comes he's stuck in the Bucks for 4 years
bird rights, 4yrs/100mil
gee I wonder why
>no experienced and good player wants to move there
tiny market midwest shithole
gee I wonder why
Idk, if I was, let's say, Bledose I'd try to move to the Bucks
how does he do it? It's not fair BROS
do what? lose 5 finals and statpad?
you mean how does he do what i let him do?
I don't even have faith in my celties anymore, at least in the front office, Ainge has broken too many promises... I fear he's going to move Horford if we keep shitting the bed like we almost did tonight
good
whoreford is ass and gets paid 27 mil
he says after he has the best game any celtic has had this year
>Boogie averaging 33/14/5
Apologize
one game doesn't excuse two years of shittiness
he was their best player in the playoffs too
don't @me until he gets a playoff stat
Post his rpg average in the ECF
post whitesides APG
>post whitesides APG
You do realize that Horford being an above average passer doesn't take away from the fact he can't rebound, play defense or set a solid screen to save his life
what did he mean by this
Nice strawman
>Kyrie thought this Mecca court was the same one they used 30 years ago
Is he actually a brainlet?
>brings up Whiteside out of nowhere
Haha ck your asleep and you cant see this but hes still here
...
How many rebounds per game, you sad strange little man?
What does that have to do with anything?
>Oladipo is in the top 10 in scoring, with 50% from the field an 45% from 3
I thought Westbrook had no help?
my bulls are riding this winstreak all the way to a ring
Cap this post
Happy Russell Westbrook Day
Reminder that Steph at this rate will get to third all time on 3 pointers made
Should non-glamorous free agent destinations get increased salary cap?
6'0 small forward.
>chris paul leaves
>cloppers start 4-0
lolmao
If Cousins and Davis were actually good players, they wouldn't struggle to go .500. Doesn't matter how bad your supporting cast is, if you have two supposedly top 10 players you should be winning games. Both are fraud "superstars". Nice 13-17 record since the Cousins trade.
>Doesn't matter how bad your supporting cast is
Actually it does.
They're literally all NBA rejects. You need to get gud scrub.
bulls /lifelong/ here
thread theme:
Manute Bol
their supporting cast is actually decent too desu lots of nice quality players on that roster now
people just love to make excuses for both of those players especially cousins "i have literally 1 season where i won over 30 games" cousins is the biggest reddit player in the world desu
it does when the team is constructed to be the antithesis of what is conducive to maximising your playstyle
so you have the two most dominant bigs in the nba, what should you do with the roster?
A spastic could tell you to stock the team with three point shooters and effective wing players
Instead, they've signed rajon rondo and tony allen
The best three point shooter on the team is boogie
what the fuck are they doing
Apologize
>w-westshit had no help!
turns out he was just holding back his help with his ballhog ways.
SKEE BITY BOOM POP POP
Lmao, did you steal this from a youtube comment? You're really that dumb?
Also a singer too
>Alibaba's Joe Tsai purchasing 49% of Brooklyn Nets with future option to become owner.
>The purchase price "will be based upon a $2.3 billion valuation of the team".
>Russians selling to Chinks
Not surprising.
>America letting another Chinese firm purchase one of their assets
You guys do realize the Chinese government is trying to destroy the USA by purchasing USA companies right? They even give bonuses to Chinese companies that purchase USA companies.
What are your favorite basketball shoes /nba/?
Jordan 5s, 12s, the new 32s, Nike Air Pros, and the PG1s for me.
jordan 1s
Adidas Kareems
>32 PER
Jesus fucking Christ
barely top 5 in the league what a loser
I remember Westbrook's PER in the first 6 games last year being absolutely insane.
Thunder traded 37 PPG for Paul George's 18 PPG. They lost the trade.
How come /nba/ doesn’t do a shoutout to EGo for reigniting his career? Dude is a stud.
because we're all afraid he'll break again
It's 5 games into the season bro.
uhh he was a stud last year too after struggling for years with injuries
>John Wall gets shook
>loses to Lonzo
>Demarcus Cousins gets shook
>he puts the team on his back and wins against his former team
really makes you think
whats PER
A meme stat
the ultimate statpadder advanced metric
Thanks for the nonanswer answers.
you wanna find out what the number actually means google it you thick cunt
...
...
Player efficiency rating which uses a formula based on every major stat to evaluate how efficient and effective a player is overall. Heavily biased towards offense so a good overall indicator of how effective and impactful a player is on offense.
Players that score hyper efficiently on lower minutes with low usage and turnovers tend to have a high PER but are clear deviations. Like JaVale McGee and Kanter last year. Now it's happening for Jordan Bell do to how productive they are in limited minutes with less defensive focus on them in the Warriors system. Kanter is impressive due to how effective of a rebounder he is with a high offensive rebound percentage and high shooting efficiency.
Is TJ McConnell /ourguy/?
>scrappiest and whitest player in the game
>master of the cheeky inbounds steal
>clutch as fuck
>doesn't shoot meme 3's
For whom it may interest:
NBA Jam and NBA Hangtime will be available to play online via Fightcade 2 in the very near future.
