God it pains me that I'm not going to see LeBron shitting on these eastern teams this year. It was fucking hilarious watching these reddit Indiana, Toronto, and Boston fans talk shit about those scrubs in Cleveland only for LeBron to go LeThanos in the playoffs. Godspeed, LeBron. You made the retarded choice of going to that entitled baby franchise who's fanbase is retarded enough to think Kobe is a top 10 player of all time. Seeing all of these smug Eastern fanbases pisses me off because I know LeBron would dominate their teams in the post season.

Doesn't he shoot 38% from the free throw line?

lonzo needs to be traded. lebron has 2-3 years left fuck lonzo they need a super team now

too bad nobody wants to join them

Literally the only team in the West with a shot. CP3 choke incoming btw. The nigga is soft and always has been, Clippers know this and are NOT soft in any way shape or form.

ben simmons will shoot 38% from 3 before lonzo

Milly could do it. Toronto could do it. No one else has a real shot.

kyrie and kd are joining :)

lol you stupid

Ben Simmons literally doesn't shoot the ball outside the paint right now. Lonzo at least can be streaky from 3 and has hit clutch shots.

Daily reminder the Memeiors have won zero rings without injuries or refball.

Reminder the greatest player in Memeiors' history (Wilt) is more famous for being a Laker.

Sad!

Lonzo is easily the best shooter in the league out of anyone shooting under 50% from FT

I certainly hope you're right. Memeiors are notorious for always getting refball when they're losing by too much desu

No they aren’t. Stop coping, newfriend

just like PG, kawaii, and boogie, right?

i wish KD never went to the Warriors FUCK

Zero chance of landing
>KD (especially)

Theyll wind up giving Butler a max contract and act like its a victory.

>I'm too blind to spot it so it didn't happen
Memeiors literally get more refball than any other "champion" in NBA history, to the point it's become insulting to the fans of the other teams in the league.

No one wants to play with lebron and the shit rookies + literal who gang. Pile that on top of a shitty coaching staff and you got yourself the plague.

Next you’re going to tell me harden never travels and all of his calls are legit.

People have said this about literally every dominant team in the league literally forever

Can't wait for him to fuck off at the end of the season so this league can become semi-watchable again.

Now, what to do about the memechucking...

draymond was right. lets be honest the original warriors vs cavs matchup was fairly even until kd tilted it

screen cap my post. collusion in full effect. it's probably not KD either but kyrie for sure and another super star

why does everyone always leave out that Magic Johnson is about as good a GM as the average user is at slaying puss

Explain the blocking "foul" on LeBron in game 1 last year when it's literally always been a no-call at worst in crunch-time situations like these, especially in the playoffs.

Many such cases. Sad!

>tfw everyone sleeping on us

Attached: rockets_.jpg (320x321, 21K)

No we haven't. Most NBA champs do get some refball to an extent but at least they're more good/great than refball. Memeiors are more refball than good, if you get my drift.

Also fuck Apemond.

Same. Back then the Warriors couldn't give the ball to KD to own anybody 1v1 so they had to get more creative with the cutting and passing

someone just straight up break steph currys leg

Way to over exaggerate one play and then call everything refball. Fucking underage newfag

The thing about the warriors is they have all the pressure on their shoulders to not fail and everyone else has nothing to lose

I can think of many cases when Cavs got a call in their favor, but oh that’s not refball because it’s not the warriors.
Sad!

Hardly. Rockets were BTFOing the Memeiors in the paint in games 6 and 7 last year until they suddenly stopped getting calls since they were winning by too much.

If you were to count them up, I guarantee you it's way less than the Memeiors get.

The Clippers. Seriously? You're going to take a team whose best players are Danilo Gallinari and Montrezl Harrell against the Warriors?

Have you seen how the Rockets play? They're 10x more refball than the Warriors.

Based on this pic, are you Gen X, Millennial, or Zoomer?

The Warriors are 27th in the league in free throw rate this year

Are you fucking retarded?
They went 0/27 on 3s in game 7. They fucking choked. How can you call that refball? By your logic it’s refball whenever the warriors win, huh? Reddit, just leave already

Harden. The king of flopping and drawing invisible fouls is apprently not refball enough to be labeled refball.

Yes I have. And no they aren't. I unironically hate watching Harden as a neutral but there does seem to be legitimate contact on most of his drives to the bucket.

Meanwhile Apemond gets free license to hunt in the paint and clutch and grab on every other screen. But then you do realize the NBA is a business in the end and unfortunately it caters to these brainwashed Memeiors zombies since there's so many of them nowadays. Sign of the times

Somehow everyone has forgotten how notorious cp3 was at flopping on the clippers. For some reason, people seem to think harden doesnt flop in his current state.
/nba/ really is filled with underage newfags now.

They had to chuck threes because they obviously weren't getting calls in the paint, you fucking NPC. And they actually did make one but it was called back on some bogus offensive foul.

You just sound thirsty for the spotlight like all newfag Memeior fans. Maybe if your team had more legitimate accomplishments there wouldn't be a need to point these things out, would there?

He does get some superstar calls, like all other superstars. But he's not on the level of the Memeiors overall. Not even close.

>/nba/ really is filled with underage newfags now.
post your address. i'll fly in to meet you. i'm retired motherfucker

I'm an oldfag actually. I've been watching since the Jordan days. And the Memeiors are by far the most unworthy NBA "champion" since I've started watching.

Early Zoomer

>they had to chuck 3s
No they didnt. Do you even know how many 3s the rockets shoot per game? That’s literally their whole game plan for the past few years. Good defense = no calls. Stop making excuses cracker

They better be given how many jumpshots they take.

Also free throw rate doesn't tell the whole story. For example, if Donkey commits a foul on Steph's defender off the ball so he gets free for a shot, it's not free throws. But would you say it's a good call?

so when you say "refball", what you actually mean is specifically "Draymond Green doesn't get called for enough fouls"

Fuck off chink.

Chink Memeior bandwagoners are the worst. You faggots just use the team as some kind of status symbol and think it's supposed to impress us and make us respect you more, when it's actually the complete opposite. You aren't fooling anybody.

Really makes you think

Zoomers genuinely think they didn’t play zone in the 80s and 90s and that it’s easier to score while being handchecked as opposed to freedom of movement rules restricting all contact from the defender.

Did larry get gunned down in his favela by Bolsonaro’s death squads? I haven’t seen any curryposts in like a month

zone defense was literally illegal
playing help defense was literally illegal
handchecking was only used by shitters who couldn't defend without physically overpowering the other player
ppg in the 80s was highest it had ever been in the nba and was unmatched until this year
think that "defense was better when it was physical" just means you're an oldhead that only remembers that time when mj punched someone and didnt get ejected, or are a zoomer that only watches defensive highlights and not actual film

Oof yikes that's a hard schedule. My Celshits can help them squeeze in a W but good luck with the rest :)

Whatever the case may be by the end of their careers MJ missed the playoffs twice (at 40 on the Wizards), Lebron missed them three times. MJ never lost in the Finals and won 6 FMVPs, Lebron list six finals and won 3 FMVPs.

So no matter how you try to put it winning six > winning three.

Gortat sucks now and im glad m Clippies dropped his faggot ass

Is Larry Nance Jr a point center/forward now?

did he only play 6 seasons?

Hasn’t Lebron played more seasons than Jordan by now and accomplished way less? Less MVPs, DPOTYs, defensive teams, Finals MVPs and rings

This team had Shaun Livingston too

Literally who can stop my Pisties?

WTF Giannis is partnered with AT&T? Im switching right now

Not as talented of course but Sexton is more athletic than Kyrie

Be honest, you didn’t think Bruce Brown would be in the rotation this year let alone your starting SF.

So is my 45 year old lawn care guy

Yeah he plays like a Draymond lite. Brings the ball up/looks for cuts. Cavs pass to him on the high block and he'll pivot palm the ball looking for openings. He can also surprisingly space the floor now.

Gonna get destroyed by the magic tomorrow

Blake and Drummond are great, Reggie Ellington and Kennard are decent

But they literally have no SF, Bruce Brown is by far the worst starter in the league, and Zaza and Thon is the worst backup big pairing I’ve ever seen

what an absolutely retarded take.

kawhi shits on durant

Lol at all the people who were saying Lavar was a good black father

Kawhi is way better than DurRAT are you kidding

Kawhi would be the most complete player in the league if he could be a better play maker. I want to see him get 7 assists a game.

KD MVPs: 1
Kawhi: 0

KD FMVPs: 2
Kawhi: 1

KD rings: 2
Kawhi: 1

KD scoring titles: 1
Kawhi: 0

KD All NBA first team selections > Kawhi’s

Kawhi played with prime Tony Parker, Manu Ginobli, Tim Duncan and LaMarcus Aldridge. KD only played with prime Westbrook (shit), Steph, Draymond and Klay. Kawhi definitely accomplished way less with more help. (Spurs big three had won three titles together before Kawhi even got there, 73-9 Warriors only won one ring when Kyrie and K Love were both injured and needed six games to do it)

I love these people who bitch about harden foul hunting when it's 70% of kawhi's game

He unironically is, compared to the average one

Oh so you mean LeBron?

If the average black father got a million stolen from their sons black homicide rate would be way higher.

Ben Simmons is one of the most overrated players of all time.

Hea played for 1 and a half years you fucking dunce

lebron doesn't play defense

How is he overrated? If anything he’s underrated because he doesn’t shoot. Nobody talks about his defense

He supports all of his sons and gave them a good home. There's also a ton of stories of him letting neighborhood kids come over and play basketball and he would cook them all breakfast

>Kawhi definitely accomplished way less with more help.
bitch please. you act like he played with the 2007 spurs. KD joined a PRIME warriors team.

He also ruined Melo and Liangelo’s basketball careers and got 1.5million stolen from his oldest. At best it’s a wash, I think he’s shit though.

The 2014 Spurs were more stacked than the 2016 Warriors and KD really didn’t do much in the Finals besides “guard” Lebron. If the Spurs had KD instead of Kawhi theyd have won at least three titles before Duncan and Manu retired. Kawhi is SHIT comparatively

He takes a seat during the regular season but regardless he can still guard all 5 positions. Lebron still has amazing athleticism, speed, and the IQ to make important defensive plays. If you think LeBron is going to spend most of his energy trying to cut off or shut down an average player on one side of the floor while he also does a million more things on offense then you're mistaken. LeBron is the more complete player than Kawhi.

>ruins one of his son’s reputations going into the league, ensuring he gets bullied by every player
>doesn’t raise another son to learn not to steal, especially in a foreign dictatorship
>ruins the life of a third when he pulls him, a genuine NBA prospect, out of school to go ride the bench on some irrelevant eastern euro team, disqualifying him from playing in the NCAA and depriving him of an education

He’s a huge narcissist and a terrible father

kawhi shut down prime heat lebron

I think this season proves he’s no longer capable of giving full effort on offense and defense. I don’t want to hear excuses for his defensive woes being a regular season phenomenon, because there were MUST WIN games after he returned from his injury where he was clearly unable or unwilling to play defense. He’s washed.

Lebron is not more complete than Kawhi because he monopolizes the ball on offense when he plays zero defense in a two way game. Give it a rest, Giannis is playing way more defense and doing just as much on offense on a competitive team.

Lebron is a poor man’s James Harden at this point. Kawhi is Scottie Pippen with burner

lowry needs to be the nash type. whi has too much individual skill to be a passer. Id much rather see him miss than the next guy

lebron is a retard idk why this guy went back to shitland. he could've stayed in miami and had 4 or 5 rings

>The 2014 Spurs were more stacked than the 2016 Warriors
you take out kawhi out from the spurs and who wins? Old man spurs or 2016 warriors? thought so.

>can guard all 5 positions
>chooses not to in the regular season to conserve for the playoffs
>misses the playoffs
I’m not high IQ enough to understand this logic

what does that have to do with anything retard?
>underrated because he doesn't shoot
doesn't? more like because he can't. Boban has more made 3s in his career than Simmons does. He's guarded the same way you would guard Javale at the 3-point line. He's a good defender in the same way any athletic 6'8-7'er is.

How many games do you see where his teammates slacked but Ben pulled them to a win? Compare that with Embiid, who pre-Butler and Harris pretty much had to go off every game or they were fucked. And how many games were there where the 6ers won while Ben had 10 or less points? Even pre-Butler/Harris? Of the 5 players in their starting lineup (Ben, JJ, Butler, Harris, Embiid) he's the least important and most replacable. He's in the league on total athleticism, not skill. If he was 6'2" he'd be a worse Ricky Rubio. Maybe he'll do a Blake Griffin and learn the finesse game too but I doubt it, Blake was still more skilled early on than Simmons.

It's also a perimeter/foul heavy league. Defense isn't stressed as much in today's league. You're guarding teams who are averaging 30+ threes a game and then trying to shoot 20 free throws a game. Offense has always been more valued.

LeBron had a groin injury this season. He' is by no means washed when he's still putting up a 27/7/7 season.

Ah yes he "shut down" LeBron to 28ppg on 57% while he himself held up put up 17ppg... you have no idea what you're talking about

You’re washed if you can’t make the playoffs in a sport where more than half a given conference does, especially when you assert you’re playing full out and still losing to tanking teams in must win games.

Why would the best offensive threat who has to carry the entire offensive load for the Lakers, while rehabbing a groin pop, put all of his energy in defense trying to shut down Rudy gay, Trevor ariza, demarre Carroll and Wilson Chandler? And btw elite defenders cannot "shutdown" elite offensive scorers. Elite offensive talent is so ridiculous that it gets to a point where the only thing a defense can do is try and make the scorer settle for bad shots. Case in point, kyrie, Durant, Paul George, Kawhi, and bron himself. You aren't stopping those guys playing defense. This isn't college ball. LeBron obviously knows it's an offensive run league.

neva lost

He was hilarious. He used to call everyone “Burgers.” I don’t know if it’s a German expression or something he just made up. But if he thought you were a clown, you were a “Burger.” So if some dude on the other team was trying to do reverse dunks or whatever during shootaround, Dirk would shake his head and say, “Get a load of this Burger.”

Or if we were up 20 and he was coming off the floor in the fourth quarter, he’d turn to the bench and laugh, like, “What a bunch of Burgers.”

i'm so fucking sick of ESPN bros, shit is so terrible. i'm genuinely curious if they've been losing viewers over the years as alternative media becomes more popular

>best offensive threat
That’s not James Harden, who carried the Rockets from out of the playoff picture into a playoff seed when Capela and CP3 went down. Didnt read beyond the first sentence, don’t want to hear any EXCUSES

You're ignorant. LeBron has had an awful awful team this year.

Gilbert is going to be in the big 3 this year. He announced it. I'm excited to watch him play.

Based on my extensive research playing kc deliverance, burgher just means someone who livea in a burgh

So awful that they will win less games than before he arrived I guess.

>Why play defense?
Because the Lakers offense was fine, it was their defense that dipped to 27th in the league when they lost to the Hawks, Suns, Pelicans, Grizzlies and Lebron was healthy.

I'm taking LeBron over Harden in a playoff series, sorry. Harden wouldn't be able to take the Lakers to the playoffs either.

Is anyone else a big fan of Wayne Selden Jr.? Or am I the only one?

>okay stephen, you will take the con side
>max, you will take the pro side
>molly....just sit there and look pretty
>alright, ready....action!

I was told Lebron can carry any team to the Finals, so given the Clippers locked up a seed after trading Tobias Harris and the Lakers won 35 last year I’m not buying it.

I mean Rudy Gay is still pretty good. Dude is scoring 14ppg on 51%fg and 41% from 3.

>Lakers offense was fine

Btw LeBron led the Cavs to the best offensive rating in NBA history in 2017. Not even LeBron can save that shitshow of a roster.

It wouldn't have mattered either way. They got beat by the Mavs ffs. LeBron's game is too predictable. All it takes is one big and one perimeter defender to shut his entire game down. Take away his right, he can't pull up left, lock down the perimeter so he can't kick it out to one of those meme chuckers like Korver, and force him to do it all on his own. He folds under pressure like most Millenials.

Harden can take a team with Daniel House as his second best player through the majority of the season to the playoffs but couldn’t take a Lakers team with Kuzma and Ingram averaging 18ppg+ to the playoffs? If anything Lonzo was carrying Lebron and those boys considering they only ever had a positive record when he played

God damn this board is retarded

Lebron made them worse given they won more games last year. It’s not the roster, it’s Bron-ball. It doesn’t work without multiple All NBA players

Great argument

Lebron is black Kevin Love in the West

You beat me man i can't argue

I got him in my FanDuel lineup for tonight if that counts.

No Dirk posts on /int/

his stats this year are more like his first cleveland run days. Hes almost back down to shooting under 50% again.

could Rogaine give Lebron his 4th ring?

LeBron missed the playoffs in his first two seasons. At that point in his career, MJ was a freshman and sophomore in college.
MJ's first three playoff appearances were on a team with a losing record.
MJ was playing on a team that not only made the playoffs without him, but played to game 7 of the second round.
LeBron is now in his 16th season; MJ was retired by now. People underestimate how much it helps to take breaks in your career. Age isn't the only factor, mileage matters.

Oh, plus MJ played in an era suited to his skills. LeBron would have 8 rings if he played without 3-ball and zone defense.

So no matter how you try to put it you don't understand basketball.

i'm teaching myself machine learning so i just lurk every half an hour or so

I missed the part where Lebron won six titles

Daily reminder that drinking milk does not help make you grow up big and strong and if you still drink it past the age of 1 you're a literal manchild.

Warriors playing well

Also reminder that uncontested rebounds should not count on the stat sheets.

>mileage matters
Mileage is the biggest meme in pro sports, people act as though rookie players are the best because they don't have any wear and tear in their legs and players get progressively worse throughout their career as they incur more mileage. When the reality is players typically enter their prime and regress at the same age regardless of "mileage."

they trynna make a show of every possession lol it pisses me off sometimes

parsons-kun is BACK lads

Hello I have been in prison for the last two years, can someone update me on the hottest /nba/ memes and what current broships are running /nba/?

>No Lauri, Lavine and Porter

What even is the point of watching?

pretty sure mj isnt dead.....

drink your milk at least 2% so you don't get a nurkic

will the warriors be likeable next year when the sssssssssssssssnake leaves?

will draymonkey and curry leave as well?

imagine trading away JV for and old Gasol. raptors gm is very trigger happy and has no patience ever

/wl/ is the only relevant broship left after Broship War 2. Yea Forums as made no new memes.

Westbrook is the worst MVP ever

Sorry but only Draymond is leaving.

Doesn't the entire league oversee the draft? If the draft were rigged in favor of one team, the other 29 wouldn't just stay quiet.
>vaginitis
he's 34 and had a serious injury. Member when 22 year old MJ missed 9/10 of the season?
You forgot to mention that he beat the Warriors in the game he was injured

if JV is so good then why is he losing?

>kd is 10/10 from the field
WTFFFF

I jinxed it fuck

Member when prime Lebron got outscored by Jason Terry in a Finals series?

Ill bite. What were you in jail for?

bros Caboclo has ascended, it's fucking over

not giving my bull enough of an allowance

If it was so hard to score the ball at the hoop in the 80s and 90s without getting mugged why did it take so long for coaches to realize how to shoot the 3 ball? Are people lying or are coaches retarded?

He's only 23 as well, with that body if he just becomes a rotation player there's no way he's not a very very solid piece for a club.

sir you know damm well that you are not me that was posting here delete your post!

member when he was playing against zone defense, something MJ never had to do? LeBron would have put up 40ppg against them in the 90s.

he's from some foreign country right? chances are he's like ibaka, giansis, thon maker and lied about his age, looking at his bones structure he's probs closer to 27

>woulda shoulda coulda
Spiritual wins and tangible losses, story of Lebron's career.

i absolutely hate bron and youre right

he also has tangable wins....

8 consecutive finals apperances is unheard of

>I'm going to compare Lebron against a completely different era with a different team and different opponents
>but don't you dare bring up hypotheticals!

>it's impossible to win a basketball series against zone defense
>besides all those teams that won a championship in the modern era
Of all the excuses for Lebron's incompetence this is the lamest one.

new uncucked threade

literally this

>blaming leshits abysmal 2011 performance on le zone

he choked bud, Wade didn't have any problems scoring dude averaged 27 on 55% but lecuck was such a mentally frail manchild he brought the whole team down with him

Eight finals appearances, how many wins? At least four, right? He played with D Wade and Bosh for four years so I imagine he must have won four straight.
There's no comparison, Jordan has an entire Hall of Fame career on top of Lebron's achievements. That's an additional MVP, DPOTY, multiple first defensive teams and three FMVPs. If a player solely achieved this in their NBA career they would be considered one of the greatest in NBA history, MJ accomplished that on top of what Lebron has done.

hey fuck this girl she made a new thread, posted her own picture as op and didn['t post news...

DON{T POST IN HER THREAD SOMEONE MAKE A REAL NEW THREAD

>D-Wade and Bosh for four years
and nobody else the first year, and D Wad and Bosh were finished the last year.
>but muh defense!
Lebron's defensive weaknesses are switching off and defending the 3, something MJ never had to do. Put him man-to-man, take away the three, and let him handcheck dudes 50 pounds smaller than him and he'd be DPOY too.
It's like you don't even understand modern basketball.
Mavs focused on Lebron, the strategy was to let Wade get his and prevent LeBron.
