Good morning, Yea Forums. Man, i had a such a bad dream last night. I dreamt that the Sixers traded up with the Celtics to draft a guard from Washington AGAIN... then the Celtics went and drafted Edwards with the pick they got from the Sixers... THEN Brand went and sold the rest of their draft picks for cash. Fuck, what an awful dream.

lakies went, in a matter of a few years, from having a 100% no-name starting line-up to having the two best players in basketball. they went from having zero chance of making the playoffs to being the possible favorites to win the finals. i don't know what kind of 4D chess your mind is doing to think that's a move backwards

Cringed

>to having the two best players in basketball
what did he mean by this?

>30 posts early

They drafted 3 two-way players to replace Marvin Williams, Nic Batum, and MKG. Boring draft but at least Kupchak recognizes the trash on this team and plans to dump it as soon as possible.

>3 threads under 500 in the catalogue
never should have given niggers the power to make OPs

well at least this draft showed that its ok to throw in 1st rounders in every trade cause you can always get them back on draft day.

/nba/ is the most retarded general on the board for years now. I wonder if race plays a factor in it

>They drafted 3 two-way players
they took a guy that's 24 and wasn't even slated to be drafted, then they took someone being sued for rape at #52

except, AD will now become a gimped corner 3 specialist and rebounder, because in the LBJ system he won't be allowed anywhere near the paint. He's going to be Chris Bosh'd or Kevin Love'd into obscurity.

strap in lakers-fags you're now in LBJ's world. He's gotten rid of your only other ball handlers, its a matter of time before Kuzma is gone (because kuzma doesn't really shoot threes and doesn't really play D, and he doesn't get LBJ easy assists because he insists on driving to the hoop when he gets the ball at the arc, if you don't pad LBJ's stat-line, LBJ has zero use for you)

Lakers won't be signing another max free agent, because none of them want to go to LA, unless there is another Klutch-Sports FA who LBJ wants to overpay to come to LA (like how he filled up the Cavs roster)

So yeah ill say it. The finals suck without lebron.

Romeo Langford was a reach. They basically just drafted the guy to fill the Jaylen Brown role when Brown gets traded, except he's not as good.

Williams and Edwards were good picks for them though.

No-one was going to pay Boogie $20m after he tore his achilles.

LeBron is a better basketball player than Michael Jordan. Scoring, assists, rebounding, blocks. All advanced analytics will tell you LeBron was the better player and arguably LeBron played in a more evolved era. It's not surprising people will still pick Jordan as the GOAT because he rightfully earned that title 6 peating with the Bulls. He his image up through marketing to the point where he's basically an urban legend. Just like how Kobe fans has the whole world convinced through instagram that he was more clutch than MJ and LeBron (when that's not true by any means). However, when it all comes down to it, it's without a doubt that LeBron James is a better basketball player than Michael Jordan.

But Cousins is shit.

and they outright lied and said he wasn't offered anything and put up this fake chip on the shoulder "nobody wanted me gotta prove the haters wrong" so he could outright chase a ring from the bench

Not only are Duncan and Shaq individually better than LeBron, they also have more rings. Duncan already raped LeBron twice. LeBron is the GOAT for people with low standards.

Stop making posts about old bums that played against substitute math teachers and factory workers.

duncan > kobe > lebum

he wanted max money and felt disrespected with the offers he was getting. now he's fucked because his legs are literally falling apart. another major injury is gonna happen most likely

LeBron isn't Top 5.

>Duncan
I don’t see much on an argument for Duncan > Bron. Two way player. Winner. Great team guy but he wasn’t an elite scorer who could take over games like most of the ATG’s. Thats his downfall imo.

>Shaq
The Shaq argument is different because unlike Duncan and Kobe, he was the best and most dominate player in the league for about 6-7 years. Where Shaq loses out to Bron is longevity. He didn’t keep himself in top shape and it started to show in his early 30’s.
Bron is currently #2 all time to MJ on my list and his longevity gives him a chance of being #1. But some people certainly love to hate the best player in the league in this era.

He had it in LA but apparently the lakers were managed and coached by retards

>muh longevity

Bound to happen with him. And it'll happen to Zion once he gets his first major injury. Body can't handle being at that weight for 82 games a year once youth starts going. And then once you get 1 injury, the body becomes unbalanced with other muscles overcompensating for the injured one.

Is there any decently good NBA player who called it quits after his first big contract was over at like 30 or something?

lol who did this

Gilbert Arenas. Hibachi. Was without a doubt one of the best scorers/off dribble perimter shooters in the mid 2000s (think a mixture of Dame with the range and Harden at getting to the rim). Gerald Wallace accidentally fell on his knee. Arenas missed a lot of games. Then the Wizards offered him a $110 million contract. Gilbert then basically gave up, got traded, got paid, and then retired at age 30.

1. NYK- $70.5M 2. SAC- $62.6M 3. LAC- $51.8M 4. BKN- $48.5M 5. IND- $34.1M 6. BOS- $34.1M 7. NOP- $30.3M 8. DAL- $29.8M 9. LAL- $27.7M 10. CHI- $20.8M 11. MIL- $19.5M 12. DEN- $16.9M 13. PHX- $14.1M 14. ATL- $12.9M

Injuries and the gun incident made sure he wasn't going to get paid again

Coby White will be the best guard from this draft. Next Jamal Murray.

Watching the draft was insane to me as a Celtics fan. Danny dove in and...got another D-and-3 wing? I mean, Langford is really good. But bruh. So you kind of expect him to go after a decent shooting guard when he's done turning picks into better picks but he grabs...another D-and-3 wing?

At this point I'm convinced Danny secretly snagged both Kyrie and KD and is personally putting the Nets rumors out there to fuck with everyone else.

I don't know. At this point you can't blame Ainge's insanity. It works. It was only defeated by Kyrie Irving's supernatural individual tanking ability.

Kobe just had another daughter. Lmaoooooo

This dude is never having a real son.

He's rich enough to afford the selective sperm samples where it guarantees the sex of the child. I'm assuming he does that, but makes it specifically female because he doesn't want a son who has to deal with the cancerous laker fanbase jerking off over little mamba.

>scoring
>Jordan led the NBA in scoring 10 times
>Lebron only once
>mind you Jordan was drafted the same year as Karl Malone
>the NBA's second all time leading scorer
>he only won 1 scoring title in his career because of Jordan

Meanwhile.
>Lebron lost it to guys like fucking Melo and Harden

Also analytics say Jordan was the better player.

Also MJ was a far superior defender.

are rich people at the point where they can genetically engineer their kids before birth basically? like they can choose the gender, hair color, appearance etc like some sims shit or is that still a long time away

that's how yao ming was made. some crazy chinese genetic experiment

Because anyone that isn't a retard and saw prime Jordan knows he's better than Lebron.

yes theoretically but even rich people don't want to step over good ol' fashion fucking

Yea pretty close. I know forsure they can choose the gender. Some athlete was on this podcast I listened to awhile ago and he was talking about how him and his wife wanted a girl but he only had like a 5% chance of producing one, so they did the science shit to let them have a girl.

>nobody drafts him in top 10
>hmm must be something wrong ok lets pass
probably what happened

How come the national media is conspiring against the Lakers?

>muh eye test
if you can't see LeBron doing a million things on the floor at once then you're retarded.

my bulls will make the playoffs :)

Nah blood that kid isn't durable enough to deserve a lottery pick even though he has the talent.

I think he should've gotten drafted after 26 before 32 though

And Jordan didn't?
Lebron over the past 3 years no longer plays defense. Also he loves to dominate the ball, even more so than Jordan.

>i... I want to play off the ball more this season
>proceeds to play the same as he always does

It's the foot injury. That same injury was a career ender for better bigs.

LeBron does more than Jordan. That's a fact. He's a more versatile player. Jordan was an amazing shooting guard, but LeBron is a floor general. Scottie Pippen was the Bull's main facilitator. LeBron is comparable to Magic Johnson when it comes to facilitating, but also has the body and elite scoring talent to draw the defense in.
And don't fall for the LeBron no defense meme. Yea Jordan was a good perimeter lockdown guy, but he wasn't a guy who could guard 1-5 like LeBron or be as good of a weakside help LeBron was. Don't even get me started about rebounding either.
Also, a lot of basketball historians will agree Jordan did not deserve those DPOY awards when he played in an era with several elite shot blocking bigs. Defense is valued more and more impactful on taller players.

>being this autistic
Goddamn.

It isn't career ending, it's a reoccurring issue. So you'll miss a lot of games. So people aren't willing to invest too much in him as much as others that are less talented but healthy.

never understood why everyone wants lebron to play off ball
offensive powerhouse when the ball is in his hands

put lebron on those bulls teams and they win 3 titles instead of 6

This cherry picked LeDick riding video is pointless

The whole fucking season everyone from scouts to media say the same shit about LeBron's defense and suddenly after the season is over this youtuber that thinks Jokic is the best passing big ever and other retarded hot takes is the proof you need?

GTFO

Attached: 1537458102358.gif (250x257, 2.99M)

I'm not even sure they beat the Suns. That Suns team had 2011 Mavs vibes and a prime Chuck instead of an older Dirk that needed Jason Terry and JJ to dominate in spurts with clutch buckets.

well recently it's shown that lebron gets gassed by having to carry his offense all game, all season, all playoffs and starts to break down. Being able to have possessions where your star player doesn't have to do everything is incredibly important. Just ask the raptors/warriors

>not career ending
haha okay

Not saying he's useless, but the first time he reinjures the foot he's on the street.

kawhi will finish with more rings than lebron

then you're just wasting energy by having him doing shit off ball. ie cutting and not getting passed to, setting off ball screens, running off screens, and it's not using his on court minutes effectively

Ben Simmons has the same injury so does KD

>video examining his defense
>shows pros and cons of his defensive game in his most recent season
>actual truthful analysis instead of memeing "lol lebron doesn't play D"
>"lol cherry picked ledick riding"
Kill yourself
And yes Jokic is marginally the best passing big of all time. Show me a center with his assist numbers

dubs picks my food from MacDawnalds

Ronaldo did it

cock

setting screens and cutting is incredibly easier and less energy consuming than just trying to beat somebody 1v1, especially the way Lebron beats people 1v1. Plays and shit exist for a reason. Superior talent can still succeed without it, but it makes the job easier. Nobody says he has to be curry/klay to play off ball

for me it's the mcchicken

Hahahaha you're a fucking casual

Fuck off back to your youtube comments LeBeautiful

Not according to the orthopedic they don't.

Bol Bol's break was singularly bad by comparison. Do you recall Ben Simmons or KD getting their pelvis shaved for replacement bone?

Jordan wasn't the Bulls primary ball handler, Lebron is always that on his teams. Now go pull up Jordan's numbers his third year where he was the Bulls starting PG. His numbers crush anything Lebron ever did in a season. Issue was that Jordan stated he hating running point.

>rebounds
Lebron Carter average is 7 per and Jordan's was 6. Lebron is 2 inches taller and a good 50lbs bigger. Jordan btw has more career offensive rebounds than Lebron.

>Lebron can guard 1-5
In today's nba.
I would have loved to see Lebron try to guard guys like Malone, Barkley, Ewing and Shaq from Jordan's era. Today's bigs mostly spot up and shoot 3's. Not a lot of dominant low post players in this era.

He claim he wanted to.
Mind you guys like Lonzo and Rondo are very good playmakers, but can't shoot. It made sense for Lebron to play more off ball this past season to accommodate the strengths of his teammates.

But nope.
It's always about Lebron handling the ball 85% of the time and his team being reduced to spot up jump shooters.

as paddy points out the most important thing to consider is obviously the fact that kevin durant and klay thompson were injured. nothing compares to the effect of those injuries. notice how durant was dominating while injured when he got to play

He's from the Spurs coaching tree technically but he plays more of a D'Antoni style analyst offense based on 3pt shooting and spacing, 5 wide offense that keeps the paint open with 3pt shooting centers.

No thanks. Average people practice a herd mentality and struggle with objectivity, I wouldn’t say athletes are even average intelligence overall. They are good at what they do: play ball, but there’s a reason why most can’t coach or GM effectively. Kobe was Westbrook with more luck in how his fate panned out, if KD carried Russell to a few titles maybe we’d be speaking better of his horribly inefficient but “prolific” game.

Might as well be worshiping a false god. Whoever calls a literal copy cat a GOAT is a moron

Look at Paul Pierce. Charles Barkley. Shaq. Chauncey. They make wrong predictions all the time. I would value a person who studied the game from a coaching/analytical standpoint over a player who's only job is to carve his talents. Michael Jordan is the GOAT but he has drafted some AWFUL players.

If the Pelicans needed a center so bad why didn't they trade down when 6 better players were still on the board?

well, numbers by themselves are impartial. accolades are not since they're awarded by humans. and championships are so dependent on your opponent and teammates that it's hard to give them that much weight when evaluating a player's overall value. you can look at more objective values like off rating and def rating to see how an individual impacts the game instead of appealing to muh clutch or muh leadership. the way we use stats may be imperfect but they give us a better chance of evaluating a player's game than the eye test.

the pels being bad with AD actually says a lot about AD himself. No way a team with AD, jrue, and mirotic should be worse than the clippers and struggling to tread .500 until he stopped playing. Something about AD's game doesn't translate to wins

Anthony Davis was the only consistent scoring option that entire 5 year run

I mean that the Pelicans traded the #4 pick to Atlanta.

If they wanted a fucking Center, then they should have just drafted one or just sign one in free agency.

When does the Duncan meme end?

>Something about AD's game doesn't translate to wins

wewkobe, we got a rookie over here lads.

ratings aren't objective. Which is why they need to be weighed by other things like pace, pace in that year, years previous, rule changes, and strategic trends.

Also off/def ratings aren't individual it's completely dependent on your team's impact when you played and not reliant on individual play in any way shape or form which is why people try to use other things like PM, and RPM which also have something to do with your team's play. WS is dependent on what percentage it's estimated your statistical impact had to do with your team winning, and VORP is the closest thing to individual play but still takes into account things like ast, reb, which depend on what your teammates did to make their shots off your passes and what your team did to boxout or even transition defensive strategy and how much your team committed to rebounding and not just your individual role

In basketball statistics are tied to team play and the only true individual evaluation is film study and individual skill evaluations.

>Something about AD's game doesn't translate to wins
Wow sounds like
>Minnesota Garnett

It would help if he had better BBIQ and wasn't just a chucker outside the paint.

KG was a mainstay in the playoffs until the talent around him completely dried up. Dirk never missed the playoffs. Love is a meme and doesn't really help your point

comparing 1-2 off years to someone else's whole career is pretty disingenuous. Lebron and kobe both carried teams way shittier than AD's to the playoffs, which is an incredibly low bar. I have literally never seen a "generational" player like what AD is supposed to be consistently fail to make the playoffs

>Love is a meme and doesn't really help your point
3rd best player on 3 finals runs and 2nd best player on another finals run. NBA champion.

are you saying AD is a good player on a bad team and so his stats are inflated? Are you saying that as soon as he goes to a better team he will be exposed???

mayonnaise is fucking great on a burger you hick magatard

On a better team AD will have less points but he'll have the same defensive and rebound stats.

Or maybe the Lakers will cut his minutes to avoid injury because he's prone to injury and plays a physical position of basketball.

are u mad we didn't draft based on fit when we are shitty lottery team? koby altman is hoarding talent. garland is high upside. sexton doesn't seem to have a very high ceiling. that's like saying don't draft oladipo because u have dion waiters.

Lonzo, Murray, Simmons, Ingram, Jokic

Holy fuck Lebron is mogging the room, a fucking tank

Who was the based poster from a couple days ago where he said he loves Melo and said "cash rules everything around me?" He was based.

As if the answer wasn't obvious by now, but absolutely nothing will happen relocation/expansion wise until at least 2025 when the league reconstructs it's next tv deal

I mean Kawhi is spergy, but did you watch the clip of him at the Blue Jays game? His body language seems really uncomfortable. You know, when you get a standing ovation from 50,000 people, normally you give a smile or a wave or something, he just looks at the ground with his shoulders hunched and doesnt look up. Maybe he feels guilty regarding his departure?

he knew he was gonna get an ovation so why would he come if he would feel guilt for something he knew he was going to get

im liking it bro
but RBL has no bammer memes

what does RPL bring to the table?

murray
jokic
porzingis
davis

Michael Jordan is not drafting a bomb watcher

Keep in mind the game was between the Angels (his local team being from Riverside) and Blue Jays. Yeah I know he was seen in a Blue Jays hat, but I doubt hed wear an Angels hat under that circunstance, someone probably gave it to him for free, knowing Kawhi. It doesnt matter whether not hed feel guilty getting the ovation, im just saying, look at his body language.

we gon get kawhj

>jeanie braining

tbqh id probably sign away my soul

>Cris Carter

Want to know why Kawhii is coming here? because he can trust our training staff. It's all about load management. He's looking at LA and thinking that if LA can manage LeBron, they can also manage his injury, reminder that Kawhii was apparently limping during the finals or something. And he's probably having flashback of when the SAS stabbed him in the back. It's obvious. Welcome home.

i cringe hearing cris carter and nick wright talk about basketball

I'd like Kawhi to talk with the C's but salary cap plus we have elite wings already

Tom Green is irritating

Cringe

Lakers SCRAMBLING to find free agents to sign

these cats don't know nothing...Cris actually is a shareholder in Uncle Dennis' business...hes in the know....and for the ppl saying he changes the list often is bullshittin HARD. Cris has stated all year Clippers and Raptors with NY teams and Lakers being a POSSIBILITY, and only recently he said they are on the list for sure. when they traded for AD lakers gained a lot of favor in kawhi's camp and he's very open to the idea of teaming up with a super team big 3

Okpala is good, didn't even bother scouting Herro. You know the rules, no whitey's on my NBA team lmao.

NEW

because their suits don't fit right
>also goddamn Lebron mogged everyone even then

Lebron would be absolutely dominant on defense under the 90s rules

hope I catch Stephen A outside the Garden

Murray - $1
Mitchell - $4
Giannis - $5
Porzingis - $3
Jokic - $2

We've got 3pt shooting from everyone but Giannis, a great passer and facilitator in Jokic, physical dominance from Porzingis and Giannis, and tough defense across the board

holy shit when did Giannis and Westbrook sign with the Lakers?!
their line up must be STACKED now
