Crazy how Blake remember how to play basketball lol. One of these media guys need to call him out soon. Ask him " why did you quit on Detroit and intentionally stopped dunking to make it look like your knee was bothering you"

Dude completely milked it to extend his career.

As i said before hes either washed or an impressive piece of shit

Appears to be the latter

Kuzma needs to keep the Slim Shady look. He's been playing really well ever since he went to it.

I don’t know what’s going on in Detroit, they said tonight during theThunder game that Svi Mhailiuk didn’t have a single dunk up there all year and he has at least a half dozen already wirh the thunder.

Are the coaches telling people to not dunk? LOL

Really? Clyde Drexler and Hakeem were near the end of their careers at that point and Barkley wasn't exactly in his prime either.

Russ played with KD, Harden (twice), Beal and PG. He's played with plenty of great players in his career. I'm glad you picked Beal out of all of the all-star players and ignored the others.

Im not even arguing hes as good as Barkley but defending Barkley based on quality of team is hilarious to me. Just as with Ewing none of the 3 are enough to elevate a team to title level.

Barkley is a next tier or 2 guy after the GOATs for that reason. Just as with Russ.

I know this is random but doesn’t it feel like Ntilikina has been in the league for like 10 years? lol He’s only 22! Package him with Knox and try to get some kind of pick for them, even if it’s a 2nd rd pick. This draft, from the looks of it is pretty deep.

First game for the Lakers and Drummond goes out because his toe nail got ripped off. This team is fucking cursed right now

Except he can't shoot worth a damn right now

Not buying it on guys like Ewing, the only reason he didn’t have a title was the GOAT.

Stabler returns to Law and Order in his new spinoff show tonight.

Can't wait, he's so badass.

The argument is that plenty of great players haven't won a title, as a reason to justify a defense for Westbrook.

I brought up Ewing and Barkley as they were great players in their era. Barkley played his beginning and end of his career with great players (the Houston Big 3 were past their prime). Ewing never had a consistent all-star teammate that I can recall.

Again, Westbrook has had plenty of help in his career as opposed to the examples provided.

I guess im not understanding your or SAS's overall point. No one is saying Westbrook is an all timer. He won a MVP one year. So did Nash. Id put them about the same.

Barkley and Ewing are a hair higher. I see Westbrook more in line with AI

So....in an era of LBJ and the Warriors dynasty he and KD came up short. KD won because he joined the W's
