Let's say Kangs and Clips don't tank, and Lakers miss the playoffs. Obviously they could still get Cousins, but is KD still a realistic offseason target without playoffs?
If I'm Durant, I stay with GS and try for a 4peat.

Durant has no interest in being Lebron's whipping post all year

Colton Roberts
Don't worry, a jew producer is talking with him rn, making sure he doesn't red pill the whole damn West coast. After the game Chuck will stick with hoops.
Gabriel Roberts
Durant can make roughly 220m from the Warriors and they’re the only team that can offer him the most money. If he’s after the momey like he says he does, he will re-sign here.
Evan Wood

well did you have unprotected sex recently? if not then block that number
Both these teams are so bad. Any good team would've gone on a 20-0 run against them during these long ass lulls of bricking and no defense exchanged all damn game

>thinking the lakers wont make the playoffs get real faggots
Reminder Scott Foster had well over 100 calls from Tim Donaghy, right after calling his bookies and middlemen. And the FBI botched a further investigation by notifying Stern prior to a sting operation. Stern and his crew leaked the information to the NY Post.
His shit don't work when it counts. Handling the rock as long as he does only tires you out and makes your teammates hesitant every time they get the ball.

Isaac Fisher
this was career ending by giannis. Tatum is never going for a layup ever again. new orleansm must feel retarded now streamable.com/ng6zw
As a neutral observer, this was one of the worst games I saw all year.
Both teams literally gave up on defense 5 different 3 minute spans and yet they never really capitalized and went on huge leads. They just shat all over themselves and bricked 3s, missed layups, gave the ball away with offensive fouls and bad passes
It was a total shit show and was honestly college tier
Adam Garcia

>clippers will begin to lose since they want a top pick in the draft >excremento getting cucked once again >silver turning up the refball for us Face it /nba/ my LAKIES will be in the playoffs and there is LITERALLY nothing you can do about it.
Tell me LeBron was good. He fucking bricked them out the game, the team went on a run without him, then he drunken stumbled into the rim a couple times and made some layups, bricked stepback contested 3s instead of passing, and a bunch of Lakers showed up suddenly while the Rockets fucking bricked every open 3 imaginable
Nathaniel Harris

How come the Celtics never seem to get the ball to Tatum? He's really developing into an automatic scorer, but every time I watch them it always seems like he gets the ball almost as a last resort. And yet he manages to make whatever he gets, and always hits his free throws.
They play the Celtics twice. And Sixers on the road. Don't let them bullshit you.

I dont give a fuck. Lebron is far better than Jordan. Better passer, more complete player, can take over a game, greatest athletic specimen in the history of sports. Lebron would have 10 titles if he had Jordan's teams. He's far and away the best to play this game.
Sebastian Torres
I called them that’s how I found out it was a fake number I don’t have any friends that live within the state, all of them live out of state except my ex none of them have my address besides the ex. Already asked her if it was her but she said nah and it’s her birthday today don’t really see her spending it fucking with me

It’s a couple of females I messed with who know my address down here, two that I can think of right this minute both ended on bad terms I think that’s more likely.
But my only concern is I don’t live at the address they’re thinking of, but honestly I doubt unless they’re genuinely pregnant (in which case they would have just messaged me on a regular number) that they’d hit me up
Could be the ex but you’re gonna spend your birthday pulling phone pranks?

My God. Buddy is a great shooter, but he's a really low IQ ballhog, sort of like Kyrie. He has TWO players open in this situation. Bagley is there for the interior shot to tie the game, and Bogdanoff (the Kangz most clutch player) is WIDE OPEN with 2 something secs to go. It might be forgivable if he misses Bagley, but Bog too? This just shows that Buddy has elementary school basketball IQ and vision. Just a terrible play.
Austin Price

Jaxson Anderson
A win vs the Rockets doesn't propel you into 30% territory you fucking rape baby
Hield literally just made a 3 the play before and their best shooter so of course they gave the ball to him

Brothas of /nba/, I invite you to lounge hours where we keep it real. No cap, no flexing we keep it a buck.
That having been said gentlemen I propose you a hypothetical scenario. Given the choice between a white girl and a black woman who are you rocking with?
Some parameters. You’re looking at a white girl in her late teens early 20s, little to no education, she lives to vibe and kick it and isn’t certain of what direction she wants to take her life.
The black woman, darker complexion, she’s working on her second liberal arts degree and has her mind set on building something. She lives to explore the world around her and try and make an impact. She has a plan where she sees her life going and wants you to be a part of it.
You gotta go with the white girl for your own personal development and sanity. Black women say they want to build together but they’ve been conditioned to view themselves subconsciously as leaders of the household. A white girl will step back and allow a black man to be king of his castle, whereas a dominate black man in a black on black relationship will butt heads with the more masculine black woman.
why would you want to build a tolerance. you can get an easy buzz or get drunk quicker. you spend less at the bar and you won't get sick hangover if u go with your limit. taking a lot of shots is just a macho thing that gets old after a while
Joseph Lopez
Get the young white girl with all the potential in the world instead of the more developed black bitch
Thomas Phillips
Neither. I hate both those types. Doesn’t matter skin color, those types are just not for me.
Christopher Richardson

Gavin Hughes
I'm scared for lebron. Ever since the guy was approaching his 33th birthday I was always watching the time pass for when he will get an injury that makes him no longer superman(and i fear for this day)
Fair to say then the future of the black American lies within the womb of the white woman. You not seeing a lot of brothas wanting to shackle themselves to a sista the entire rest of their life after seeing their daddy’s go through it with a brick wall of a spouse.
Jordan Moore
fucking hell. get /pol/ out of here. This is about sports not politically incorrect politics
Joshua Watson
A lot of black guys might not have grown up with a black father, I think interracial relationships are just more exciting initially. When you start talking to a white girl you just move different, I can’t stop touching smelling their hair, they use entirely different product.
The shape of their bodies is different, require entirely unique appreciation. Don’t get me started if they got light eyes
Meet them where they stay, you want the best so it helps to be the best version of yourself. Dress decent, smell good, work out you don’t have to be a certain swole to get them. Don’t try too hard but do be charismatic and shoot your shot.
They just like any other girl in that respect they just more special to me.
Rockets have allowed the 2 biggest comebacks of the season so far and have allowed 3 15+ point comebacks total, the highest was the 26 point comeback by the Thunder (franchise record)
This team fucking sucks and their gimmick from 2016 has been completely exposed. mindlessly chucking 3s only makes it easier for the other team to go on massive runs because you don't have Warriors tier snipers on your team that can consistently heat deep and refuse to allow anyone but Harden dribble the ball.
Thomas Jenkins
mike dantoni. he doesn't think defense is part of the game at all. i can't remember when he said it but he mentions letting the other team score quick just so he can get another possession

How would you rate a potential core of Luka/KP/Randle?
The Kings are so retarded with Hield going for a fadeaway to tie the game instead of an open 3 to win it. They fucked up against the Nuggets too and almost every one of their losses is the result of someone messing up a close one. A mental midget team that always blows close games will go nowhere
