The looter of lakers, the scourge of san antonio, the oppressor of oklahoma, he goes by many names. Just know that wherever he treads he leaves a trail of ashes and fractured asses
But can he beat the Rockets in the WCF?

Ive always hated this faggot
how much did he lose
Any orlanbro's here?
Do stats even matter if you don't win?
Oh wow. The only thing he was ever right about was Westbrook sucking ass. Now he gave that up.
Lowry is such a manlet
Probably not but he killed it as Casper Iyam famm
Based Charles
How could anyone bet anything on OKC? They are the most inconsistent team in history
so you got the raptors or the celtics winning the East?
id give a very slight edge to the raptors because theyve been there every year vs lebron and because of leonard
can somebody make lowry even smaller, like head peaking at greens waistline smaller?
gambler's fallacy
"OKC shot 15% from 3 first game, there's no way they do that twice in a row"
You forgot about my Bucks, Kostas.
no i didnt
Why did Magic shit the bed so hard compared to Game 1?
If they at the very least made their free throws they wouldn't have been so demoralized half way into the 3rd quarter.
redpill me on coaches Yea Forums
why do professionals who have played the game all their lifes need some old white guy to tell them what to do? Surely they know all the plays in the book by now. Seems to me like another way white people are trying to control the black population and take credit for athlete's hard work
whats up niggas

are you every hoop fan in history.
Did he actually bet?
betting my life savings on the pacers
Threadly reminder
He said he bet 600 bucks. I'm sure he'll be fine but annoyed for the rest of the week
The who?
I said if at least they made them they wouldn't be in such a bad spot. At the time they were down by 10 and missed 10 FTs. Ball handling was complete shit the entire game.
how are we supposed to know the thread mentioned was made by larry? its just your word

>magic
in case you didn't hear, my Rapties buttfucked the Magic last night and will be completing the gentleman's sweep
So many haters and doubters,
okc is who Dame wanted so he could shit on Westbrook
Warriors are damp wood.
You need a level-headed guy who has "seen it all" to make decisions as an outside party (i.e. not a player)
Your shtick is getting old, aren't you tired of it yet?
What are going to do when the Blazers are playing in the WCF?
excuse me but I think Kawhi should be higher than Durant, considering how ultra efficient he was and how Durant had more turnovers than shots last game
You fucked up your ratings, Wilt easily beats Bird.
We made entire Spooky robots to push Wilt.
the irony is that larry is just a term for the autistic spammer that shits up this thread. The sparks guy is an example of a larry, but he's too stupid to realize he's larry and thinks it's some other guy
congrats larry, you played yourself
I had OKC topping Blazers in 7 as """fact-based"""my prediction. I would actually prefer the Blazers to win.
he can view the whole court at once and relay strategy that can often be lost in the shuffle of individual matchups
>bird that high
in case people needed more proof that you don't know what you're talking about
upset Kanter couldn't stop fouling last night, I want him to earn another fat contract
making the WCF isn't that impressive this year considering the only good teams (rockets/warriors/jazz) all happen to be on the other side of the bracket.
>T. Porkies Poster
>jazz
whoops, meant to put "my" before "fact-based"
if they do sway will go crazy with his oakland thing which is usually funny
>ywn never deep fry a turkey with based Ernie
Why even live bros?
Jazz is pretty good - they're one of the 3 best teams in the league since the all-star break
I will be nailing my beautiful millionaire Korean wifu.
Now this just sad, Larry... When are you finally going to step away from your personal biases and just acclimate to the /spARKY new age?!
>moving the goalposts this hard
look up their stats, m8. I'll let you be the judge
it wasn't, it was a celtics thread but sparky is a mentally ill samefagger
>le beat up shitty teams get swept by the rockets
>le defense meme only have 2 good offensive players meme
nah
let's be real. if the western conference were seeded correctly:
1) Warriors
2) Rockets
3) Jazz
4) Spurs
5) Nuggets
6) Clippers
7) Blazers
8) Thunder
the blazers would be a first round exit. You're lucky half the conference either got off to a bad start or didn't try in the regular season.
blazers are trash but thunder are trasher
DeThawed DeChosen and my Spursies will easily cast aside these fraud teams on this side of the bracket
>if the western conference were seeded correctly:
Either you die a harry, or live long enough to see yourself become a larry...
1) Ws 2) Rockets 3) Jazz 4) Nuggs 5) Spurs 6) Blaizies 7) Clips 8) Lakers or TWolves
The Durr are not a playoff team tbhwy
are the spurs good or what
Even if the Clippers lose the series, successfully executing the greatest comeback in the history of the Playoffs against one of the most stacked teams of all time in one of the loudest, most difficult to win in venues of all time, while having zero All Stars was epic and the most satisfying game ive ever watched.
>lakers
ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha fuck on outta here spic
Kawhi has been climbing /spARKY’s list steadily and, if you’ve been following the ratings, you’ll notice that KD did take a bit of an sp. hit after his poor performance in G2, falling by >3,000 sp. in the past few days. If Durant’s game continues to slip into dampness, I wouldn’t expect him to hold his position on the ratings board for long.
i would also remind you, it can be tempting to overreact to the outcome of one game, and it’s easy to get swept away with our emotions when our favorite players are involved. I would urge you to please keep in mind that S.P.A.R.K.S. rating system accurately takes ALL factors into consideration. When taking a step back and going from the micro to the macro we can see individual players for their true inner spark, showing the true nature of each players spark-to-flame transformion. Sometimes, we just need to remember to leave our biases out of it and trust the system’s algorithms.
3rd best team in the west tbqh, would beat any team in the east easily in a 7 game series
>t. Durant
This is the weakest Spurs team in some years. On the other hand, their system and scouting is so top notch, they always over-perform.
Larry bird is Jealous of the spark poster?
patty mills is the worst player in the league. i really believe that
This Tbh
>t. Never seen an NBA game in my life
>trust the system's algorithms
Sounds like complete nonsense - post a peer-reviewed citation of this shit or shut the fuck up
sorry, but things can wildly change in the swing of one game. that's why I prefer P.L.O.P. - the only analytics engine that wildly overreacts to single performances. using its lonzoYeast2 engine, P.L.O.P. gives a more accurate day-by-day standing of who is actually the best at any given moment
The Spurs could only beat the Pistons
How in hell did jokic got even more fatter during the fucking season
He gonna balloon to 350 in no time
warriors and rockets are the only good teams in the west
rest of them wouldn't even win 3 games against the oladipo-less pacers
I truly believe it's Lonzo Ball
Good American cuisine.
that's sad. your championship was winning 1 game out of 5 where boogie got hurt and kerr played g-leaguers half the game allowing you to climb back into a game you would have lost by 50 had curry played the whole time. How pathetic can your franchise be where winning 1 playoff game is considered a success?
I have been using SquirtBraap but am looking at a move to Plop
>Wilt>Bird
That seems like a pretty emotionally biased rating...better double check your algorithms, user
>Warriors fags havd saying they didn't need Cousins and that he made them worse since he got back
>use him as an excuse
how do nba players get fat in the first place? I don't get it, you're constantly burning calories working out and playing high intensity cardio. Not to mention all the calories it must take just to maintain a decent body at 7ft. Guy must be eating 6000+ calories a day.
...And why should Bird not be rated highly?
We never said that. Cousins made us better and deeper. You need a troll filter.
That post game will be tremendous
>cherry-picking
He's quite clearly not the 2nd best player of all time, it's that simple
Now do Wilt at 30
Break up wit ya girlfrieeend
Cus im bo-o-ored
SquirtBraap is a far inferior engine to P.L.O.P's lonzoYeast2 in my view. whenever I used SquirtBraap, I would always come away with an uncomfortable burning sensation, similar to the kind I get when I have to take a lonzo after eating some Thai food...
P.L.O.P. on the other hand has never left me feeling ashamed and in discomfort. P.L.O.P. always has the satisfying ratings I crave, and a user interface that is as soft and easy to use as Charmin 3-ply is on my ingram.
>+/-
Zero championships
Its a spiritual victory, user, as well as a record, executed by a team performing against all odds in extreme circumstances. The franchise is one of the worst of all time, winning wise, that is undeniable, but the game was fantastic and immensely satisfying to watch. Its those type of performances that will draw big time free agents in the offseason for the reasons I already outlined. Boogie getting hurt was a shame but he hurt himself so whatever, sucks for him. The teams were still 4 All Stars vs zero All Stars so Cousing going down shouldnt have mattered that much.
Sorry you cant understand the various nuances of why that game was so important. Ultimately I have hope the Clippers can actually win the series, its especially satisfying seeing that win when literally everyone said it would be a 4-0 sweep no doubt about it.
but is it better than the LarryLoaf 2.5 engine?
i'm not familiar with that one
Ariana Grandes music makes me involuntarily imagine fucking her, but then I remember that her pussy is so stretched out that it would just be humiliating for me, despite my average size, so the fantasy collapses in on itself
>Its a spiritual victory, user
congrats on the spiritual championship clippersbro. I remember when warriors/clippers was an actual rivalry and it's just sad to me this is what it's become
Nah, that shit is tight as fuck
What's SGA's ceiling?
that's not how vaginas work my dude
t. me last night when they all FUCKING DISAPPEARED AFTER THE 1ST QUARTER
your entire state is full of fat fairweather retards and my raptor will be figuratively playing at home for the entire series
Ultimately all that matters are the next two games. This Clippers team is on some shit and I actually have more faith in them than I did Lob City, as crazy as that sounds. Records are records and until someone else beats it, the Clippers have that forever. You from the Bay Area?
>talking shit to the magic, a 7 seed, cause you won game 2 at home after losing game 1
It's funny you say that. I have never jacked to her once that I can recall. And I am straight as an arrow with many chad features. I don't even see her as a whore particularly, although I'm sure she did what it takes to get to the top. In any event, you could always imaginary force her to take it in her other, tighter holes. But personally I just instinctively move on to one of the thicker porn actresses out there.
Healthy livingstone
Of course her pussy would still feel like heaven, im saying that after years of nonstop 10 inchers something has to change. As strange as this sounds, that fact is a turnoff for me.
Gotta say Blazers have raised they're game impressively, I'm glad my Rockets avoided them
Not sure if trolling but the Rockets have my Ws next round which will not be a picnic
Blazers would have probably beaten us first round
Eating the food who he couldn't eat during UN sanctions against Yugoslavia
Ah I see. My fault bong.
I'd rather take the warriors after getting they get mentally humilated by the clippers than take them later when harden might be too exhausted. You have to beat the warriors on the way to the chip anyway.
>Dropping a game to the 8 seed
Yes you are
she looks like she's 12 and dresses with oversized sweatshirts to look even tinier to appeal to whom i wonder
>8 seed
Are you being intentionally retarded?
What does -27 in 37 minutes mean?
Well true but I'm assuming they lose to my Ws anyway, so their best move was to put it off until later
means theyre shit
You seem to be confusing the Raptors with the Warriors my friend
It means that over the 37 minutes a player was in the game, his team scored 27 less points than the opposing team.
Damn, I didn't realize Westbrook was such a soft baby
His problem is he not being Norfbrook
Dame Lillard > James Harden
>imb4 someone posts that gif of Harden making the most effeminate faggy facial expression of all time as if it were cool

had to do it after last nights game. cheers fellas, raps in 5
>2-4 in finals
>thinking this is impressive and worthy of praise
I’ll get you started but you’ll hav to Do your own research. This is from their official page tho:
>The S.P.A.R.K. rating system is a method for calculating the relative skill level and chance of future success of each team in the NBA. The S.P.A.R.K. system was originally invented as an improved rating system allowing a more accurate predictably of outcome for the NBA regular season, playoff and finals games.
>The system rates and splits each team into well defined categories based on an advanced algorithm which takes into consideration a variety of factors. The difference in the ratings between each team serves as a predictor of the outcome of a future match. A team’s specific S.P.A.R.K. rating is represented by their current category and position within their category. This position increases or decreases depending on the outcome of games as the season progresses.
>Factors which are taken into consideration in the S.P.A.R.K. system includes tracking of injuries, trades and other player transactions head-to-head results, margin of victory and quality of opponent, as well as integration of predictions based on 100,000 run simulations forecasting the rest of the season, consistently updated after each game.
>not getting that rings are a team stat
forgot to include my image
had to do it after last nights game. cheers fellas, raps in 5
I don’t really trust PLOPS because I’m not reallly familiar with it’s algorithms or it’s rating engine. I do trust S.P.A.R.K.S. though because I know it runs on a custom built Candybread Elite7 rating engine which factors into consideration the tracking and impact estimates of team/player injuries, the physical and possible mental ramifications of past events, trades, press, and other player transactions, head-to-head results, margin of victory over similar opponents, and rated quality of opponent, as well as integration of predictions based on 100,000 run simulations forecasting the rest of the season, consistently updated after each game.
You’re welcome to use other rating systems if you’d like but a word of advice, I’d stay away from P.O.R.K.I.E.S. or any rating system still running on the outdated LarryLOAF Pro2.4 engine. It’s just not reliable data at this point.
>[Cowherd] Lakers have a replacement for Magic, he is currently running a playoff team, but he is okaying the moves that the Lakers are doing. (@9:00)
based Jerry West
>moving the goalposts
that's what makes Wilt such a bad team mate
Isn't that bretty illegal and a direct conflict of interests?
>Lawsuit inbound
It is all too common to get slight errors in your results if your machine has not been calibrated correctly with the most recent and up-to-date tuning methods. I believe this is the issue you are experiencing, and why, for example, Squirtbraap and LarryLOAF are unable to properly score Bird in their ALL-TIME TOP 10 (this error was corrected corrected with the ShockWire6.7 update) and why Wilt always seems to be rated incorrectly a bit too highly on their results.
My advice: I would just ditch the whole PLOPS and LarryLoaf Pro2.5 trash system and just start getting acclimated to the sparky new age. Sparky has taken care of all your rating needs, so why worry!?
the fuck are these schizos talking about? none of those meme ratings are real. quit spamming the thread with your autism
People just dont seem to realize, mentioning this bullshit even once triggers a massive wave of spam, just ignore it and move on
The mental gymnastics you're working right now is hilarious. I can't wait till the WCF and you're spouting that the teams in the 2012 draft selected incorrectly and that Dame shouldn't even be a Blazer.
how is it a conflict of interest? clippies can't really make any moves right now anyway, and lakies don't care if the clippies win the chip. President of basketball doesn't have shit to do during the playoffs, it would be no different than if he quit and joined the lakers straight up (only reason he's sticking around is for the ring and completion's sake)
Westbrook is deteriorating quicker than LeBron at this point and thats hard to do
;_;
bruuuuh ... look at this DOOD
Sparky might be adequate for most users, but I have a delicate system of bet placing. I am constantly being thrown off by my lonzos and Russell Westbrooks creating havoc. My feeling right now is I need to mix in a few KDs and Klays to solidify my rankings. Once things have stabilized I will certainly give Sparkys another look.
how come nobody ever mentions dirk/wade as one of the legendary rivalries?
Yknow, I cant help but feel bad for the guy. He finally makes it to the Playoffs and then this shit happens. Hes gotta feel like shit right about now. He wants so badly to be accepted by the team too (buying them all expensive smart suitcases), poor guy.
porkies pls go
/spARKY POST-GAME QUICKTAKE:
____——— THE AFTER-NOON SPARK EDITION———-____
WC PLAYOFFS - R1G2
NUGGETS 114 vs. SPURS 105
We all know sparks turn to flames so, the question is...who’s got the spark today in the NBA?...
The Nuggets have been starting to really look deep within themselves for the secret to unlocking the spark-to-flame transformation which will allow them access into the prized “FLAME” category in the S.P.A.R.K.S. rating system. As has been discussed at great lengths, we already know what the name “Nuggets” refers to! It refers to gold. Gold which is mined from the earth in one of the sparkiest processes known to man. With each clink of the miner’s pick axe, he attempts to discover the golden nugget hidden within, in a forging ground of sparks which, if harnessed correctly, will turn to a flame which will further ignite those who reign victorious.
Of course the harnessing of this flame has been an essential factor in the Nuggets recent sparky regular season run, winning them the number 2Seed in this years post season. But, after a lackluster game 1, many of us were asking ourselves - “Where’s the spark!?”... Luckily for Nugget’s fans, Jokic and company came back with a bit more spark in their step last night. Jokic himself shot for 21 points, racking up 13 rebounds and 8 assists. But the real sparker for the Nuggets was Murray, who could be found getting his spark on, scoring 21 points in the fourth quarter alone! Igniting to flame was a timely event for Murray after his poor 8-of-23 (0-of-6 from 3pt) performance in Game 1. We’ll be looking for Murray to stay consistently sparky if the Nuggets are to improve their chances at climbing the sp. ratings list..

Thunder fans are retarded, where’s that one nigga who had so much to say after the first game?
>w-we only lost cause we shot like shit!

...And although The Spurs are solidly in the “SPARKLESS” category, it would be foolish to count out any team coached by such a sparky individual. And, after an impressive game 1 win in Denver, nobody is doubting the Spur’s sparky potential. It’s actually quite amazing what the great Greg Popovich has been able to accomplish with this rag tag group of sparkers and sparkees. Just one of the many reason why he’s been named the most sparky choach of all time, with an impressive overall rating of 97,900 sp. We’ll see if Pop can continue to impress with a home victory in Game 3 tomorrow in San Antonio.
>change in overall sp. rating:

Sounds to me like your just another advocate of the updated L.O.A.F. rating system!? It’s funny how every time I make a S.P.A.R.K. related post, Every. Single. Time. All of the sudden, out of the wood work will come 1 user, and then 2 anons, and then 3, all seemingly random anons that are suspiciously hell bent on discrediting S.P.A.R.K.S. And trying to replace it with L.O.A.F.‘s subpar, aged and increasingly unpopular rating system. And now I suppose you’re going to tell me about how your outdated LarryLoaf Pro2.4 rating engine outstrips S.P.A.R.K.S. CandyBread Elite7 engine??!? even though LarryLoaf Pro2.4 only simulates a fraction of the games and takes practically 40x as long to do it. You and your employees are paid to use a system which has been proven time and time again to be inferior... TO WHICH I MIGHT ADD, still doesn’t predict player stats or game outcomes within a 14% margin of what S.P.A.R.K. can do. Nobody uses L.O.A.F. anymore, face it, your sickly, undependable joke of a rating system has been replaced and voted out. So why don’t you paid P.O.R.K.I.E.S. And LarryLOAF shills crawl back under the dirty, dark, damp rock you all came from and stop trying to discredit the better clearly superior system, simply because you’re afraid that YOUR OWN spark will be going out once and for all!

friendly reminder to report sparkfaggot for spamming his autistic lists
I’ve been noticing a lot of emotional bias in this thread. Isn’t there some kind of rating system that could clear up the facts for us?? Like maybe we could make use of advanced algorithms or something in order to make sense of all the stats and data available currently in the nba? just a thought...
hey brudah
Jrue killed this fake g last year. Showing out because playoff Worstbrook is on him
That's what spark user is here for dummy
Sounds to me like a lot of people are still uneducated about just how amazing this new rating technology really is! Perhaps a quick rundown of the history of sparks will help you to acclimate more comfortably to this new age. You see, S.P.A.R.K.S. came about during the sparky revolution when a new way of thinking about sparks swept through the NBA like wildfire. Now top NBA analysts are using the new Candybread Elite7 to formulate the problem of how sparks ignite to flames in actual concrete mathematical terms for the firsttime. And while the problem of how sparks came to be in the NBA is far from being solved, it is finally being formulated mathematically as a set of problems that analysts, players and fans can understand, explore and discuss.
The highly advanced particular properties of sparks might arise from the natural laws governing our individual sparkyness. And it explains how these properties allow us to reason about the sparks which might actually exploit the very nature of our reality. Is the world around us as sparky as it actually appears? Or maybe sparky actually introduces a new age in accurate team and player rating. If it is a new age, it’s a bold age, it’s a different age, it’s a spARKy age!
So, you may be asking yourself, how do we cope with this sparky new age after growing up in a mostly sparkless society? We’ve been conditioned our entire lives to avoid sparky situations but then we are given countless examples in the /spARKY news updates of sparky teams and players that dared to ask what happens when you seek out the sparkiest path and take destiny by the hand. You too can choose to take this path, and, with destiny in your hands (and a bit of spark too), comfortably acclimate to this sparky new age.
that wasnt me retard
What was his endgame?
REFBALL WON'T SAVE YOU TONIGHT, CELTSHITS
He was double teamed the whole series at his teammates couldn't capitalize
not his fault
the reason he put money on okc was because they had 2 all stars and portland had 1. i don't think he realized pg was injured in other words he doesn't watch the sports he covers unless its golf
>Westbrook
How is Westbrook MVP?
How is this not a foul? How is it refball?
have sex
Because of muh triple doubles even though no one cares about the context of them. I mean his hero ball style of play ran off KD and Harden and will be the reason the thunder will never make another or win the finals
Lose weight
Why do people rate him?
Lowry is this seasons MVP
Thunder were the first round matchup every western team wanted
Then why did the Blazers tank?

>okc fans talking shit about dame last year for getting swept by the pels
>now getting dicked down by the same dame
lmao talk shit get hit
sparky da real mvp. Can you imagine what the state of this general would be without his informed takes and strictly data-based ratings. I’m still not sure what we did to deserve being graced with sparky and his amazing technology! It still just seems to good to be true!..and the fact that he’s offering it as a free service too! I, for one, would be willing to pay a monthly subscription service for the quality of stats and ratings he’s packing his posts with! God bless sparks user, and let us all be thankful for this new unbiased age in team and player ratings!
>The SuperBook at Westgate Las Vegas took a $100,000 bet on the Milwaukee Bucks to win their first-round series against the Detroit Pistons at -20,000 odds, according to race and sports director John Murray. The bet would pay a net $500.
If they're willing to pay $100,000 to win $500, then how much are they willing to pay the refs?
shits hilarious, they have ZERO self awareness
This is incredibly relevant. Refs have actually come straight out and admitted rigging of games, gone to prison etc. It's well known that the NBA currently uses refs to influence game outcomes that favor their revenues. If you do not know this or see this, u haven’t done ur research:
npr.org
m.youtube.com
For example, Refs ensured a Cavs victory in G4 of ‘17 finals. Cavs had won their last 12 games that Mike Callahan was refing, a ref voted one of the worst in the league by players. He's the guy that can get the cavs to win every time, and he does.
Game 4 was obviously manipulated to anyone paying attention. Refs set the tone in the first quarter by handing 22 ftas to the cavs and shitting out 2 fouls on the dubs 3 starting best defenders. They scored 86 pts in the first half!
GSW couldn't play defense at all without getting called and they were in foul trouble early. GSW were also getting hammered by the cavs early with clearly intentional no calls. Many times GSW got momentum going to close the score gap just to get hit wth an obvious BS call to stop the pace. Or the cavs would go on a run and the refs wouldjust lay on a few fouls to keep the momentum going in their favor. There were shit fouls called against cavs only when it wasnt going to be a factor in the game any more.
The pace of the game was also slowed down drastically due to all the """confusion""" causing game delays. The purpose of this was giving the cavs lots of rest time bc if elBJ’s shit endurance.
G4 of ‘17 nba finals is a perfect example of how refs can blatantly manipulate the game.
BBall is the easiest sport to rig bc of how intimate of a connection the refs have to each play. Also, refs are literally in the game with the players and can read the momentum swings very well, knowing which minor calls can have major impacts, and which sparks can ignite to flame. Refball.
ANYBODY KNOW WHO THE REALIST NIGGAS IN THE LEAGUE
Curry is pretty damn sparky
Reminder that the NBA is just an extension of Nike. Name a team that won a title with a superstar who wasn't endorsed by Nike?
Golden State
>KD
I almost cried mah brother
Reminder that the FLAMES is just an extension of Sparks. Name a team that sparked a flame with a sparkster who wasn't endorsed by Sparky?
Drayboon wore nikes. Not necessarily a superstar but still a major cornerstone for GSW. Same goes for Andre since he was the finals MVP.
Curry won without him
*blocks your path*
and lost the following season when they threatened LeBron and Nike
real niggas drive stick
Clippers in 6
Gonna be fun to watch Curry go full Harden once KD and Klay leave
Today i'll remind them
curry can't do jack shit by himself
Kek! That’s an embarrassing prediction. What the hell kinda damp ass rating software you use to come up with that? I bet you didn’t even calibrate your algorithms correctly prior to running your system parameter checks... Topkek!

Is westbrick the greatest choker in the history of the NBA? Besides curry and the warios of course. He had such potential if only he learned how to play in control and off the ball
>Cousins is ded
They never needed Cousins tho
>KD is positively shook
Don’t let your emotional biases get the best of you. It was one game.
>Klay is irrelevant
Irrelevant to dampness, you mean? Agreed.
>Only Curry is sparky at the moment
Even if that were true (which it’s not), Curry>Lou. What is your argument? What concrete evidence are you basing your “Clips sweep in 6” prediction off of?? What kind of backwards ass algorithms are you running!!? Why can’t you get your shit together, user!!?
he needs those 400 moving screens a game to free him up
No need to discuss and analyze the scope of my correctness. We'll talk on April 27, man of sparks.

Fair enough. I’ve capped your posts, user. If somehow the sparks do align in your favor, and Clips sweep the Dubs in 6 (or even 7 for that matter) I vow to repost evidence of your bold and seemingly outlandish prediction in every /nba/ thread until the day comes when my flame goes out for good..
...however, if you are wrong, you will not soon forget the day you let your emotional biases prevent you from trusting the algorithms. I will not actually personally take any action to ensure that you learn your lesson, but, when GSW eliminates the Clips, and the day of reckoning comes for you, I’m confident that your own moral compass, your very soul, will cause you internal conflict and pain, the likes of which you’ve never experienced before, nor ever will experience again.
Pride cometh before the fall user. It may be wiser for you at least be open to looking over the algorithms now, that way the shock will be less painful when you finally see that your emotional biases have led you astray.
haters gonna hate
the kid looks like it belongs to a family of street shitters
Fakers gonna fake fake fake
kill yourself
Because when you have both Kobe and Shaq with their differing ideas of what makes a successful team you need a third party to help make things a cohesive unit. If owners could get away with not hiring a coach for millions of dollars they would.
But then who will feed my dog? Who will post all of the /spARKworthy stats, rating and news? Who will stick it in your mom’s pooper every night? Sorry user, I just have too much on my plate to end it all rn..

>actually thinks humor is /spARKY’s primary objective
Although sparky is a man shrouded in mystery, it’s pretty obvious he’s doing all of this as a benefit to the general community, rather than for his own personal kekles. I’ve actually picked up on his particular interest in teams displaying good ol’ fashion team-spark, such as GSW and the Spurs. He can also be found pointing out the many fallacies posted here which support players who’s spark is largely overhyped, such as Lebron and Harden.
It’s almost as if sparks user truly takes a liking to players, coaches and teams who are ACTUALLY sparky, and bases his predictions on the Candybread Elite7 rating engine, rather than from personal bias and media manipulation.
Does he think he’s funny? Sounds to me like you're asking the wrong question, user. You should be asking how you can leave your own personal biases out of the equation and learn to trust the algorithms.. then you may be able to percieve him for what he truly is. Personally, I believe sparks user is the foretold savior of /nba/, the one who will restore balance and reason to this board, bringing an end to the insistent biased-based list postings, and ushering in a new golden age of sparky stats, ratings, metrics and predictions!

Based Bev. Dumping a blogpost I wrote in the heat of the closing moments of LAC@GSW G2
Bev has to be DPoY holy shit I don't give a fuck about the regular season, win or lose Bev's performance has to be recognized and rewarded by the association, what him and Doc are doing to scoring champion Durant is unprecedented in basketball, but what's more is IT IS WORKING! We are witnessing basketball defensive history happen, for the contextless and uninitiated. The game changes/is changing/will change before our very eyes because of Patrick Beverley earning his paycheck by fulfilling his duty to contain Kevin Durant in the halfcourt.
Props also to Doc Rivers for implementing the David/Goliath scheme to deny the Curry/Durant pnr (or if it was Bev's initiative to guard Durant props still to Doc for being daring and desperate enough to go along) The scheme is not only emblematic of the 1GSW-8LAC series, but more crucially, it is effective and has already paid off the second game in. Casey is too hidebound to pioneer something akin to Doc's equalizer in his own 1-8 series.

Am I supposed to be impressed? Bulls defense was allowing 92ppg when we kept losing to LeBron in the playoffs
racist fuck
Guys I swear to god, this is going to sound crazy but I think I've invented basketball players in my head. Before curry got big and was just a literally who on a shit team I imagined a player who could just hit 3's from anywhere and how good he would be. I imagined an NBA where 3's were the normal. I wondered why teams didn't spam 3 pointers all the time since that seemed like the obvious best strategy to me, from a mathematical stand point. If someone could just shoot 40% from 3 they would break the game.
I think I imagined it so hard, that's why steph curry broke out and the league turned into what it is today. You may be thinking "so what? anyone could have predicted this, that doesn't mean you imagined Steph curry into existence."
well after I invented steph curry, I started regretting it. I realized this made the NBA boring and there must be a way to counter this playstyle. I came to the conclusion, mental toughness and lock down defense would destroy this style of play. Enter Patrick Beverly. Guys, I think I imagined a gritty defensive player with a give no fucks attitude so hard the clippers turned into it and my ideas manifested themselves as Patrick Beverly. I think I have a psychic link with Jerry West too and together we've somehow been able to build these dynasties by figuring out the weaknesses in the nba and building rosters that counter it.
It sounds really crazy when I type it out, but I honestly think my imagination is somehow creating NBA players into existence (I know they were there before I thought of them, but maybe they were just invented and we only THOUGHT they were always there) and somehow jerry west is involved in all of this.
If my theory is true, what type of player should I invent when jerry west inevitably comes to my lakies?
Damn all these Houston tit cows flossing on fan cam

Excuse me guys. I was told that Gobert is DPOY and he was best at his position. Is that true?
he's winning dpoty but he's nowhere close to the best at his position. He has no offensive game
Based user. Give the Spurs some meme magic to help them win their 6th ring.
Can you create me a girlfriend? ;_;
>detroit might make history
good for them!
wondering how they're calculating this when the most you can lose in a row is 4
it's really weird the way they date it. They lost two in a row against the celtics in 08, then got swept the last two times they were in the ploffs and are currently sitting at two more straight losses putting them at twelve total. It should really say 07-19.
Pistons are so garbage
imagine being a Pistons fans and thinking they would win in 5
oh no no no no
>P-pistons in six!
ahahahahahahahahahahaha
Everyone is roidy I he even seen Nurkic with the same signs on his arm, but is does look like this is the case kek. Silver gives no fucks for roids
fucking do it lmao. fuck casey
As a Pistons fan I can assure you that no one ever thought we would win this series. Hell I'd be happy with one win. At this point the only chance of improving is a complete rebuild. Not good enough to attract free agents and no cap space. Not bad enough for a lottery pick. It's NBA hell right now for the Pistons.
I don't think anyone thought they would win, even if Blake was healthy. There's nothing wrong with their fans rooting for them. They are the 3 of the worst things an NBA team can be: not good enough to contend, not bad enough for the lottery and in a shitty city that doesn't attract FAs.
Fucking hivemind
those are suction cup therapy marks. something for blood flow i think. it's basically meme science same with that tape that athletes use

It's so red
Of course NBA players know the spark when they see it.
Just spin a top like in inception
Shaw has probably the most disappointing career of all time. Never reached his potential, then was such a whiny faggot got tossed around the league like a desperate whore
Considering the guy literally modified the rulebook because of his play, it's pretty safe to say he reached his potential
>Man who dominated the league for many years, won numerous rings and accolades, and was paid many millions of dollars didn’t achieve his full potential
Sadly true
>alive
>in a coma
Those two things are not mutually exclusive, user. There is an easy test to find out if you’re really in a comma tho. Look at the picture to left. If you are actually in a comma your mind should be unable to comprehend that it is a photograph of a spark. If you actually are in a comma, Your brain will interpret the picture of a spark I’ve posted instead as the greatest coach in NBA history.
He eliminated Jordan from the playoffs in 1995. No one else can say they beat him after his first ring.
That's not a good metric. Plenty of scrubs have been the catalyst for rule changes.
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic because I have autism but yes. He could have been THE most dominant player of all time but he just didn't care enough.
I wasn’t being sarcastic, it’s wild that so many of the all-time greats just really didn’t do what they could’ve
Zoomer pls go
Crazy to think that if he wasn't a lazy nigger when he went to the Lakers he would have been the undisputed GOAT. LA ruins everything.
Easy with the racism bucko!
For all we know they catch up to the celtics in titled
He was 28 when he finally won his first ring with the Lakers. He did put up more pounds than he should have, but age was already catching up to him after the lost to the Pistons.

It’s good to be in the company of unbiased anons such as yourself. I’d actually like to take credit personally for all of the sparky posts, but I must give all credit to the S.P.A.R.K.S. engineering and design team whose rigorous efforts behind the scenes have sparked the advent of the new Candybread Elite7 rating engine. This amazing technology is what enables an efficient means of compiling and delivering all the sparkworthy stats, news, overall sp. team and player ratings to those who need it.
I believe, as most do, that every spark has at least a chance at becoming a flame. We owe it to ourselves to find the sparkyness within and use that spark to ignite the flame. Glad I could give a spark to those in need.
