You kids will learn one day

i think marcus smart is a good defender but seriously what the FUCK does he have to show for it to gain a DPOY? people like have block stats like JJJ (or even his teammate robert williams). so i'm just confused

doenst feel right without iguodala

I know that filename pattern. So you're a suns fan and a warriors fan? lmao

I'm just saying, y'all dpoty got danced on all game. Thank god durbeta was fucking up

Dubs' broadcast came up with The Firepower Five tonight and that's decent.

Naaaah. Born and raised in Phoenix, Suns, Yotes, Dbacks, and Cardinals for life. Ain’t a little bitch-ass fairweather fan.

Indeed

That's lame as fuck

"Dray needs a backup defender for guys like Giannis and Ayyton"

>buys a shit ton of merch and automatically thinks that means he moved to phoenix

Sounds like a bad 80s cartoon on Saturdays

>iToddler

bro iguodala had the ultimate granny injuries this season lmfaooooooooooo bro was out with back spams, neck spams, hip pain

those are twitter filenames

>what the FUCK does he have to show for it to gain a DPOY?
Media hype. Steph Curry literally led the NBA in steals in 2016 and didn’t even sniff an All NBA Defensive team

refs let drayboon hack the shit out of bigs. Been that way for years. It's why the death lineup worked

iggys gonna rest up until the finals and we'll have one last hurrah

>Lifelong Snus fan
Yeah, those look like they could fit a 2 year old

What about the “homeless sidewalk dump five”? Or the “crackhead catalytic converter caper five”?

Klay and Iggy were great perimeter and post defenders too, not anymore

I automatically dismiss anyone at or over 6'10" from the all time conversation. You can't be top 25 ever if your success stemmed at least in part from a massive advantage in a game that rewards height. You don't get equal credit for having a bigger frame here.

help defense in the post*

I'm a manlet, and even I can see this is a massive cope.

>manlet cope

I really don’t understand why it’s so hard for some people on here to grasp that there are people born and raised in this city lol. What else do you want me to post, my birth certificate?

How about not taking Yea Forums seriously. Grow the fuck up kek

See you guys next season

>mfw my mom's new boyfriend took us out to dinner for my mom's birthday and after we ordered our food he looked at me and said that the defensive player of the year award has a track record of being given to the player who keeps continually talking about it to the media throughout the season and never to the actual best defensive player and all you have to do to prove this is look at Gobert winning it every season he bitched about it and Draymond receiving it when he started bitching about it too

I don’t take it seriously at all, just weird how people refuse to believe there are people raised in Phoenix. Weird af, doesn’t happen with any other city. I get this on every sports general not just /nba/.

good luck serb bro :)

those 3 last players are pretty good

I'm 6'2" barefoot. If you want to start saying "manlet" for not being a fucking 7-footer, go ahead so I can dismiss you. But still, imagine being called great because you magically grew taller than literally everyone else except for the 5 others gifted like you.

after curry retires his shooting coach job is on lock

I remember seeing this game, deandre jordan literally just stood there holding the ball right next to the rim instead of putting it back up and it took the game to OT where they lost.

>acting like it's a bad thing
He took off the limiters, it's playoffs time.

my boy Kabengele just needs more time.....

hopefully you'll come back more optimistic bruh your the most depressed nigga here

I do agree to a certain degree, but you are overreacting.

Wiggins is quietly efficient...

The NBA is going to strap a Starship rocket to the Celtics.

They can't let Yuros and Africans dominate the NBA, they're going to push the new light skin as MVP next season.

Honestly I can't even cap, it is impressive Jokic got this team to 48 wins. I feel like I'm watching 10 clones of Jr Smith playing whenever I watch a full Nuggets game
