/nba/

Kawhi never wanted to play in Toronto, he wanted out the moment he got there, but he still won them a ring before leaving.
Honestly the most based player in the league

OKC: West/Brick

l*kers entitled spoiled subhuman got what they deserved, kawhi is the real man, no pussying out like lebron and kd for ez rings, be your own man,

Sixers are a four star team
Simmons/Harris/Horford/Embiid
Also Jazz have Conley (and Ingles/Bogdanovic)

>KAT/Wiggins

Wiggins is still in the league?

Finally some parity in the league. Now it's open season to see who gets the chip.

>OKC:Danilo/Adams

Luka/Porzingis

lets see how he recoverd from his ACL tear first
he could be Amar'e Stoudemire for all we know

This is the best outcome for the league that no one saw coming
>NBA has some parity now
>Westbrook will go berserk again for our enjoyment
>Lebron and the lakers got fucked
God is good

exactly. he did what he was supposed to do.

If Siakam and OG progress as they should TOR should still be a top 4 team

Siakam/Lowry

Miami picks valuable

Klay is better than Dlo

Nothing went wrong. Sports stars have no loyalty to the team they're signed with. It's all about money, and this guy, "Sweaty Steve" of Microsoft. has more of it.

Bonus for Both players is they get to play where they want to live.

Kawhi just did one of the richest people on earth a personal favor

Literally like 6-7 teams have a legit shot at winning the title next season. How is this not a good thing?

Super teams suck, because it kills all the drama in the year. Everyone says it's no point to watch, because you know who will win. Next year is wide open. That's great for the nba.

Masai gotta do whatever it takes to get Beal man. Powell as a starter doesn't look good.

Not really since Butler joined and they will almost certainly get better. Now theyre not a 100% dumpster fire like before and it doesnt look as good

Now that the NBA has officially become a 2 star league, how do you rank them? For me it’s:

1. Kahwi/PG13
2. LeBron/AD
3. Durant/Kyrie
4. Curry/Klay
5. Harden/CP3
6. Embiid/Simmons
7. Jokic/Murray
8. Giannis/Middleton
9. Luka/Porzingis
10. Lillard/McCullum
11. Mitchell/Golbert
12. Siakam/Lowry
13. Kemba/Tatum
14. Fox/Buddy
15. DeRozen/Aldridge
16. Booker/Ayton
17. Butler/Winslow
18. Beal/Wall
19. Griffin/Drummond
20. Olidipo/Brogdon
21. Lavine/Lauri
22. Westbrook/Gallinari
23. Vucevic/Gordon
24. TY/Hunter
25. Towns/Culver
26. JJJ/Morant
27. Zion/Jrue
28. Randle/Barrett lol
29. Sexton/Garland lololol
30. Batum/Rozier LOLOLOLOLOLOL

ACL tears very rarely hamper athletes careers nowadays. More often then not now, players not only make a full recovery from them, but in many cases come back even better and stronger than they were before the injury due to the body-building rehab.

It’s entirely reasonably to expect Porzingis will still be every bit as good as as he was prior to the injury. The only question is whether he can avoid racking up future injuries.

Sure, hes basically unproven thus far, but the Clippers did trade their way into draft night an secure a 6’10” center with a 7’3” wingspan in Mfiondu Kabengele, who is related to Dikembe Mutuombo on his moms side and can apparently shoot the three. Doc will teach him and hopefully unlock him this season. So technically, Harrell, Zubac and Kabengele are their centers. Hopefully they sign someone to the MLE and some vet mins as well.

Dont doubt Jerry West and his draft pick prowess. If he thinks a guy is a good pick, hes probably s good pick.

Pretty sure Masai would have to give up way too much to get Beal

Rather see how OG develops

beal to miami you heard this here first

Masai brought a chip to Toronto. Trust man.

>12. Siakam/Lowry
are they really "stars"?

>still in this thread

Both top 20 retard

If the Lakers can sign Marcus Morris, I say they had a good offseason.

Lakers add: AD, Morris, Green, Dudley/Daniels, THT

Lakers lose: Lonzo, Ingram, Hart, Lance, Rondo

Also, it's HUGE the Lakers keep Caruso cause I love my boy Caruso. Overall, this should net the Lakers 13 extra wins and probably the 4th seed. I get to see them in the playoffs again.

All player on their best day
1. LeBron/AD
2. Durant/Kyrie
3. Curry/Klay
4. Kawhi/PG13
5. Harden/CP3

If Siakams progress continues, I'm willing to bet he'll be top 15 by end of season

They also have OG who was injured all season so it's not like they're suddenly in rebuild mode

Is blaze pizza any good?

No

Not really, but neither are any of the other duos after about 10th in those rankings.

Lillard/McCullum and Luka/Porzingis are the very edge of what I would still confidently consider a genuine 2 star boogaloo. Mitchell/Rudy is where you tread in to the territory of “maybe”, and then everything after that is pretty clearly not a true qualification of 2 stars.

clips, kawhi gonna win it all again

No offense but isn't this tampering?

Sure, but they also choked the shit out of game seven at home, they still have a lot of growth ahead.

Their contracts come off the books in a year... Very smart timing in my opinion. Vets can teach the young guys for a year, and then we have a lot of money to move around afterwards.

Is someone going to answer my question

Why would anyone join the clippers over the Lakers. That's like joining the Mets over the Yankees

Lakers have 2 players. Can't load manage like that.

No, it's not. It's Kawhi going to Balmer, West and Rivers and straight up telling them he'll go there if they get PG. It'll be tampering if it was the other way around

Anyone have a high quality version of the Lowry photo with the Canadian flags reflecting in his glasses? You know the one I am talking about.

Yea you're right. Kawhi is disposable. They could have just got any other SF.

My point is there's a big advantage in life in having a good relationship with "stupid-rich" people. Ballmer is the richest single owner in the NBA to my knowledge and he's going to treat kawhi like royalty.

I'm a Blazers fan and I agree. I think they benefitted a lot last season by no one knowing who they were. Now teams gonna be gunning at them. The real winner in all of this is the Thunder with 5 first round picks and probably more when they move Westbrook. They're gonna be picking in the 1st rouns 20 or so times over the next decade. Clippers gonna wind up a 1st round exit. They can't play with a chip on their shoulder anymore. Beverley got paid and everyone knows about Kawhi and PG13.

Clippers still have draft picks left over from the Pistons/Blake trade in 2020 and 2023 and then some. They will be in the draft every year. You know what the Clippers have that everyone else doesnt? Jerry West (PBUH). Jerry saw what SGA was despite being 12th overall and stole him from Charlotte, leading to PG. Jerry is the one with the vision and with the draft picks he still has will inevitably acquire talent. Plus the current Clippers squad is young and healthy, Shamet and Robinson are rookies with Shamet going to be a star, Zubac is still very young, Harrell is only 26, Harkless 26 (if they keep him, also the source of a first round 2023 Miami draft pick lol), Kawhi just turned 28, the team can go for years, those picks mean jack shit and you know it.

Yeah, ready to be 42% from the field

its really not

free agency started last week and its pretty much already over, the regular season doesnt count, the playoffs are the only thing that matters

Westbrook is going to Miami to play with JB. Cap this.

Sexton is better than SGA. Been telling everyone that all year. He can't score, his assist numbers were nothing special and he can defend pretty well. He's just not super athletic and he doesn't have the meat on his body to go with his height.

After reading a piece about Kawhi and how he got PG, it seems his camp and himself are very smart.

What if Kawhi talked to Magic knowing he was gonna leak everything, so when he signed with the Clippers people would blame Magic for leaking their conversation and not being secretive enough? Literally 4D chess.

They just barely missed the playoffs last. And now they have Butler and are "determined" according to reports to bring in another star. Plus they had a great draft.

They quietly had a great off season so far. They will be a playoff team, making those picks trash.

Can't imagine sharing an arena with another team in the same league. How do they even decorate the interior with marketing promos and shit.

>I know nothing about basketball: the list

Maybe with westbrook performing in the garden another 17-65 season can be avoided for the knicks.
Westbrook vs KD part 2 in NY, is the storyline the NBA needs.

OG is a top 10 defender in the league

That was funny lol

>AD trade happens and the Lakers get cap space for another max guy

Why?

Portland and OKC won't make the playoffs. New Orleans, Dallas, or Sacramento will replace them.

the phoenix will rise some time this decade.

Cap cap cap

yes, that's right, also hestay

How do you become a legit NBA insider?

hes reaching for them grapes, looking to make some wine

I'll officially declare OG as a bust if he doesn't perform next season with or without health issues. I've had my doubts with him for some time.

Because they didn't sign any max guys with that space and all the good free agents are gone. All you can get with that space right now are vet mins and mid tier guys like Danny Green. That's not getting you over the hump. Maybe you can sign Cousins and hope he gets back to form, but you can't really trade for a 3rd guy since you don't have anymore assets.

Either friends of players, like Windhorst was with LeBron, or sucky sucky

What? Are you fucking high? Kobe blew his achilles and came back shooting 37%. Achilles is BY FAR the most devastating injury a player can suffer from. You have absolutely no fucking clue what youre talking about.

The small (important that its small) labral tear heals up basically 100% in 12 weeks.

The partial thickness (very important) supraspinatus tendon tear can actually heal itself but PG opted for elective surgery, recovery time 6 weeks in a sling, few months of therapy during the offseason and load management for both thanks to a deep ass bench and the Clippers are fine. The surgery for the rotator cuff was a month ago, labrum over two months ago. Point is that these are injuries that can be recovered from and the window of time reflects that.

A RUPTURED achilles takes a year, if you want to be safe, and even then you absolutely can not put the same pressure on it.

Reality finally set in.

This isn't the east and lebron isn't going to carry you through the playoffs with a half assed team.

Green and LeBron form a good wing defending duo with AD on the inside

But AD is a dominant force for at least 50 games a season.

Tbqh, Mitchell is overrated

Riddle me this

Why are the Lakers run by a blonde whore and a backstabbing snake?

Why do you allow this?

It wasn't all about money for Kawhi. He took less money to be in LA.. Also the cost of living is waaaay higher in Cali. He's from LA. He loves it there.

I'm just thinking how unstoppable they would have been with Kawhi. Shame. Bron is going to be a good defender again with AD rim protecting. Danny Green is gonna lock fools up. Bron plays really well with bigs. Anyone remember how well Mozgov played with them? Member Big Z?

Sorry, OKC fans you gotta eat shit for giving Westbrook that contract without any real shot of getting past the first round. Be thankful for the expiring contracts and picks.

I'm not sure who'd take him besides the Knicks.

Kevin Durant had notoriously bad defense his first few years too

No it doesn't because he's long and with AD and McGee locking the painted area up he just has to overplay the perimeter. Bad defenders become good when they have length, athleticism and the team defense is tight.

>Johnson, 23, will have a fresh start and an excellent opportunity to develop in the Raptors system. He has become a strong defender in his NBA career so far.

WE DID IT BROS

Kuzma is a chucker who can't defend a paper bag. There is a reason New Orleans didn't want him.

literally who

Westbrook was always the problem. There is a parallel universe where the Thunder have won 2+ titles with Durant and Harden.

So excited to watch basketball now, even though I'm sad the Lakers won't just steamroll through everyone with MEGA SUPER TEAM.

Is Lebron going to have a bounce back season, or is age and injury taken out one of the greats? Will Paul George or Anthony Davis rise to the levels they are capable of? Is Kawhi the baddest dude on the planet and we're going to get more of that -- or was this run to the Finals lightning in a bottle for him and the raptors? Will the Splash brothers get it together in time for the post season? Will KD return to form? Will Cousins even matter or play at all? Will Kuzma step up and be that third star for the lakers? Will the Clippers win their first chip and prove to the world they aren't a fucking joke? Will Lebron cement is legacy? Will Westbrook kill himself? Are the Sixers re-tooled gonna be a problem? Is the Greek Freak coming back better than ever and with a vengeance? Do the rockets still matter -- will Harden and CP3 find a way to break through? What about the mother fucking Nuggets, the mother fucking Jazz, and the mother fucking Blazers -- are we going to pretend they aren't a threat? Will the Celtics look better with a different all star point guard not named Kyrie? Are the Pelicans going to be fun to watch, or something more?

All of these questions actually matter now. Whether if Kawhi joined the Lakers it would just be gg everyone.

I love it! I'm also salty as fuck. Eat my dick Kawhi and PG. Eat it, eat it, eat it.

they didn't know he flew back to san diego, they were saying his family was being flown to toronto hours after someone confirmed the plane came back to toronto with just the crew

There is no way Leonard was actually massaging the Lakers to cripple them. That seems too cunning and cute for him. He's supposed to be an autist, not an anime villain.

Kawhi dont need superstar diva lebron. He can do his own thing and be successful.

Kawhi to Clips is proof Lebron is a cancer. No one wants to play with his drama queen ass.

That's Luc Longley, their starting center. Kukoc was the sixth man

In the span of a year, they missed out on Kawhi, missed out on AD, missed out on KD, chased Kyrie away, lost their defensive anchor and replaced it with a sieve, and became a fringe 6th seed

They won 60 games with Derozan as the best player

Getting picks back for your superstar is just a huge cope. Clippers, Nets, and Lakers would gladly trade their picks every year if it meant they get guys like this. Teams that cuck and trade their players to big markets are officially feeder teams.

>Presti pursued a package of Russell Westbrook with George to the Raptors -- with the NBA's Most Improved Player, forward Pascal Siakam as the centerpiece of a deal -- and Ujiri balked, league sources said.

COUSINS TO THE LAKERS

I CALLED THAT SHIT

>pushed them
>get blown out by 30 when warriors actually put in effort
Epic

Boogie is a bench player. Kuzma starts and Javale is the first big off the bench.

no one cares

Rapties vs Clippies Finals is going to be lit AF when Siakam averages 30 points, FVV hits clutch shots, and Lowry plays like John Stockton again

Don’t forget Cook to round out the 12 man roster

>Free agent center DeMarcus Cousins has agreed to a one-year deal with the Lakers, agent Jeff Schwartz of Excel Sports tells ESPN.

D E M A R C U C K S

C U C K S I N S

ANOTHER 1 YEAR "PROVE IT" DEAL AFTER A "PROVE IT" SEASON!

THIS C U C K O L D TURNED DOWN 2 / $40mil TWO YEARS AGO LIKE A LITTLE BITCH AND THEN NO ONE WANTED HIM SO HE HAD TO KEK TO THE LAKUCKS! LMAO!

this has to be the greatest highlight video i've seen

kuzma shouldnt start, he should be 6th man. davis and mcgee at the 4/5

Westbrook will end up on the Lakers just cap it now

what team is the 3peat guy on now?

>Lowry plays like John Stockton
i know you're just joking around but that comparison doesn't fly lightly with me

wherever mccaw goes will decide the new champion

UJIRI WHYYYYYYYYY
KAWHI WOULD HAVE STAYEDDDDDDDDDDDD

there are better overall players but danny greens 3pt shooting + defense is quite easily arguably the best doubly so with bron passing him wide open corner 3s and having AD behind him on D.
teams underestimated them. now teams are going to be scheming against them. kuz is legit as fuck, young and no limit on his ceiling.

Lakers roster is contructed poorly. Too many players clogging the paint.

>go to the lakies' to get revenge on PG

spurs still got like 2.7m left on their MLE...

danny is washed, he hasn't been the best 3d player in years

Bleacher Report is misquoting Woj.

Woj said that Pascal package wasn’t enough for the Thunder, it was proposed by the raptors.

Thunder wanted like 7 first rounder or some shit

>Muh Masai god
He cucked out

They got plenty of picks out of the Clippers deal. It would be smart for them to take on some young talented players to develop. The Heat have a few that would be intriguing to them.

>Quinn Cook
>Danny Green
>KCP
>clogging the paint
Some one has no idea how to play basketball

7 1sts is worth having 3 superstars. It's basically 2 1sts per star.

I wouldn’t give up your depth for a couple streaky bums. Don’t forget pg has a glass body as well

>shoots 45% from three last season while guarding your team's best player so load management boy can rest
lul he's washed!

someone make a new thread

2 injury prone stars, 1 stat padder cancer, no cap space and no bench....hmmmm?

SAC: Fox/Hield or Bagley

all of the best players in the east playoffs the raptors played were big men, gtfo with this bullshit

not to mention the fact that lebron plays the backcourt most of the time. and couldn't caruso come back? another small

stars are volatile. you're almost powerless when they walk up to you and demand a trade even with two or three years on their contract.

...

keep telling yourself that

Official Lakers account tweeted about them handing a qualifying offer to Caruso, but most outlets still list him as an FA, I don't know if he's holding out or what. He's a great fit, tho, they'd be crazy not to bring him back.

Fuck, they just brought back Rondo.

>didnt even get dubs

You suck
