So real.

Remember Michael I was best friends with Arnold Schwarzenegger

The narrative is simultaneously that on any team with Lebron if a player has shown the capacity to shoot three pointers at a league average rate they will make every single one now that they play in the Lebron system.

Simultaneously the narrative is Lebron has not had very good players on his teams in the past and I agree.

So when the raptors barely get a spot in the playoffs, who wins the east? not that it matters since the west is gonna win regardless

Bucks or 76ers

I'm beginning to think NBA is scripted. Kawhi just happens to recruit Paul George, one of the most hated men in Laker's recent history, to the clippers, and oh yeah they might also sign Dwight Howard. Their starting lineup might have 3 of the laker's fanbase's most hated guys. It's like they're just trying to make the Clippers-Lakers rivalry a thing again. They're trying to build up another superteam to be Lebron and the Lakers "villain" for ratings now that golden state has dissolved.

I honestly think Adam Silver and the NBA writers come up with a script every season that the teams have to follow and that none of these trades are even real.

Are Zion, JJJ, and KP about to start a Renaissance of superstar PFs after they disappeared from the league for a while? It’s literally been only Blake Griffin holding down the fort for the past decade.

to be fair, Bill's team was too good. Mikan and Wilt were the only ones who beat him. Hall of famers coming off the bench

6ers get better
buckers regress

>why didn’t you trade away 5 first rounders and your entire team for a duo that lost in the first round 2 years in a row!??????

Some people don’t deserve to watch basketball

Zion is more of a SG at 6'4 than PF, he's just heavy so he guards everything on defense like Marcus Smart.

KP is anemic and won't be healthy for a season, JJJ is basically a SF. Can't even get as many rebounds as Lonzo off the bench

>Hall of famers coming off the bench
Means absolutely nothing in a league when guys get in the Hall of Fame for having memorable names.

>Zion is more of a SG at 6'4 than PF
Zion is about 6'7/6'8 with shoes on. He was last measured before entering Duke and he just turned 19. He is muscular as fuck.
Also look at Charles Barkley.

Best basketball player of all time

Was he measured in Timberland boots? Guy is 6'4 barefoot at the top of his hair, and will look about 6'4 on the floor due to his weight and clunky style.

COPE

boy i need these shoes that makes you 4 inches taller

It's funny watching all the brainlet Clips fans whiteknight Kawhi over a coffee shop when they're getting free publicity over it

Whatsup laker nation... I just wanted to share that I’ve been following, and religiously rooting for, lebron since around 2008. Im a bandwagon of any team he plays on, so now I’m a die hard laker fan. My question is what do y’all think of fans like me and are y’all accepting of us into yalls fan base ? I personally expect nothing less than lebron to have one of his best, if not best, season of his entire 16 year career this season. I also think the lakers have great shot at the ship. I’ve seen lebron take shitty ass teams to the championship. He won with matthew delladova as the 6th man. Matthew fucking delladova. My point is this might be the most stacked team he’s ever played on outside of the heat era. I know a lot of people will give me hate, but I don’t give af in team lebron till I die. Lebronshow and lakeshow bout to be somethin serious this year and I’m stoked

Nah I mean he was measured at those short heights entering Duke. It's obvious he has grown since then. He is just as tall as his Duke teammate RJ now.

RJ is 6'3?

Why do you keep posting this? I'm a Laker fan and making fun of this shit is pathetic

LeBron James will move to point guard this season according to Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports.
He's been a point forward all his life so there's no need to overanalyze this. After playing just 55 games last season due to a lingering groin issue, LeBron "has since recovered and is in great shape with no restrictions" according to Haynes. LBJ is the best playmaker in the NBA and now gets to pair with one of the most dominant big men in the NBA in Anthony Davis, so we could see him eclipse his career-high of 9.1 dimes per game. Danny Green will start alongside James in the backcourt, confirming that Rajon Rondo will come off the bench

how fucked is the rest of the league?

They can retaliate, but there's more of us than them. In battle, well, we'd tear them open so badly the Clippers will have to relocate

Holy shit I'm realizing RJ is a fraud and the Knicks fans are fucked.

>JJJ is basically a SF

That is horribly false. JJJ is about as exact a definition of a PF in the modern NBA as it gets. SF isn’t even his secondary position really, he played C in college. He’s a mobile big who shoot good, the prime fit of a PF.

How's he going to spurt from 6'4 to 6'9 like that?

they're playing into their hands by giving them attention, which is what they want
and they don't need to white knight a millionaire who doesn't give a fuck about them

Would relocating back to Seattle help the Thunder? There's no way they can lure KD back. Is it a much bigger market/more attractive destination for FA's?

he led the lakers on a wild goose chase and prevented us from signing Kyrie or Jimmy Butler for his own amusement. Don't be surprised if his uncle and sister already have hits put out on him

Does that mean Westbrick is a PD?

Out from his contract. They are in tank mode and the intrest from other teams so far has not been there because of his contract, it's I believe 171 million over the next 4 years with a player option in the final year being over 50 million or something.

He's gonna be very expensive. But fuck it, it's worth it. The Heat are to well coached and run to tank and we dont have picks so this is how we do it.

If Lebron wasn't a coward he could have stayed in Miami and recruited from there and probably would have been alot more successful (I bet they would have gotten KD) than going back to Shit town and LA.

you know kawhi is a bitch for that. he had his mind set, and his camp was leaking kawhi to clippers the whole season. his bum ass knew it would be gg and that he would be walled off from contention if the lakers signed another all star. kawhi is plain and simple overrated. he has gotten his shit knocked every playoff he's played in the west, and after winning a * in toronto against the wounded warriors the biggest credit to his non-legacy is being up 20 on the kd-led warriors in a single fucking game, and brainlets act like one game decides a series because of it

Westbrook isn't a point guard because of his pure point rating
Grizzlies finished dead last in rebounding per game with two dominant rebounding centers passing through. JJJ isn't a historically poor rebounder for his size and position?

i don't even care who got kawhi as long as he left Toronto.

Stockton unironically would get cooked by today's PGs. He guarded other point guards in an era where point guards were told to not shoot and distribute the ball. He never had to deal with an allen iverson cross over.

Please tell me people aren't actually gonna die because Kawhi signed with the Clippers. That seems so absolutely stupid.

Doesn't play in today's NBA at 5'11, consider this Quinn Cook and Raul Neto who are both much bigger than him and better shooters/ball handlers don't even get minutes on playoff teams today.

yeah obviously but both offer something different

lakers fans are mentally ill

Laker Nation on twitter is really acting like the KGB and releasing people's addresses, getting businesses to ban Clipper players and management, etc.

The coffee thing is the most public one, but I'm hearing businesses turning away customers who wear Clipper paraphanelia.

you know paul george gets injured every year? i'm thinking butler was the first choice

If Frank Ntilikina got the same foul calls Wade did he'd be x6 All NBA

he was also a turbo autist who would micro manage his minutes to avoid injury. This led to become one of the best iron man guards in league history so he could pad his regular season stats. Him and Malone regularly choked in the playoffs regardless. No way would Stockton be willing to guard a Kyrie, Westbrook type all game, let alone switch onto a derozan/harden.

Larry Bird would be Sam Dekker in todays game

just woke up from a 3 week coma. did lakers get kawhi?

Why are there still a lot of fans of the Nets in New Jersey? They relocated to Brooklyn like the Thunder did from Seattle.

players are more skilled than they were 20 years ago. They can just jump over centers now. Also lighter players can jump higher so they will get more rebounds

Youth travel programs are killing the sport of basketball. Expect lower class kids being able priced out of meaningful basketball and a professional/college future.

Wilt would still be a superstar. It’s everyone else in the league at that time that wouldn’t stand a chance in today’s league.

Wilt was the first genuine supernatural talent to pick up a basketball. superstar 1.0. which is why he could toy with the league and they had to invent new rules just to stop him from breaking the fragile game.

Had he grown up today, he still would have been great. He’d have just harnessed and crafted his god given talent in to becoming a properly competitive star in the modern league instead of waging a war against archaic rules of a circus of a sport where he didn’t even need to try to completely outclass everybody.

Lmao nah man. It's also NBA bribing ESPN to create this agenda of which teams will win the Championship, what with them saying Warriors have no chance of winning it all now.

I'm not trying to suggesting that the Heat are better without russ, only that given the two players' egos in question it's got a high rate of failure.

Personally, I hope it happens- either they're the exact type of asshole the other's been looking for their entire career or it'll blow up spectacularly. Entertaining regardless.

Why isn’t Steph curry considered an albatross contract?

Because he's winning FMVP this year

Defense is overrated. The game is won by scoring more points than the opponent.

Where the fuck are my Magic

But you also have to keep them from scoring more than you. That's why the lakers lost alot of games

LeGod's coaching just wasn't working that time

Lmao but really

He has less accolades than CP3, Westbrook and Wall

I’d argue Curry is the worst out of all of them because he caused KD to leave ending the dynasty

Has there ever been a more repulsively marketed, plastic, and soulless team than the 2019-2020 Clippers? For that matter, has there ever been a second most [all the adjectives I previously mentioned] team than the 2019-2020 Brooklyn Nets?

Masai is a genius desu

They should easily be the 6th seed in this eastern conference.
