2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

[Wamu]

I watched AD last night for 2 minutes..

He should return the money he makes..

He is the most disinterested player I have ever seen.

Spoken like someone that literally has only watched 2 minutes of a Lakers game this season.

When AD's 100% he's averaging 26 & 12 with 2 blocks on better than 55% shooting.

Stop your nonsense.

How the fuck you go from this…..




…….to this?





By being the Clippers, that’s how.

We need to team up to talk each other off the ledge because all we know is our team letting us down. Hear me out:
Once the decision to bring in Russ is made how do you use him? He needs to play his minutes with PG and Kawhi to try and get them easier looks. If it’s gonna work, it has to be that. Do you want him QBing your second group? He isn’t that guy. If he’s gonna defer, he’s gonna defer to legit talent like those guys. That’s the only chance of him being the guy you want him to be. Also, I would imagine this gets Zubac on the court with Russ more as well. You may get more from him as a lob finisher.

Going to La Parrilla tonight.

Didn't go last night.

Yeah, he needs to be getting PG and Leonard easier looks and buckets.

You must have missed him earlier this season when he was straight balling.

Lol, what the… I only watched for 2 minutes! He was playing at a snails pace!

If that’s what he plays like all the time no wonder the team is sub500

He plays that way far too often, which should be never.

But of course he doesn’t play like that all the time.

If you actually watched any basketball you would know how he plays all the time

 

[bksballer89]

Yep

 

[fightinfunbags]

Yep

Unfair. This tweet shows exactly what I have a problem with. Nobody wants to talk about Mobley going for 31 on 12-19 shooting. Mobley averages 16 a game and around 11 shots a game.

You are volunteering to be my sponsor?

You may regret that…lol

You are correct.

Best chance to work is playing with the big 2.

But, again: We are talking taller midget here.

A 1 % chance of working is better then 0.

Still pretty shitty odds.

Im a realist, my guy.

Just because he wears the Clips uniform doesn’t mean I lose my higher brain function.

The best option for success was to not sign him to begin with.

But, I cyber-love you for trying…lol

Hey, I know many of you guys fuck around with edibles. This stuff was going around in my area. If it’s happening in one spot, it’s happening all over. Fetanyl in gummies pays off because you become physically addicted to a drug you’re under the impression is habit forming but not physically addictive.

Fentanyl, heroin found in THC gummies, district attorney warns

Anyone who purchased these items, and still has them in their possession, is warned not to eat them.

That’s fucking scary.

Love gummies, allergic to opioids.

I can’t even take Vicodin.

No guarantee he was guarding him.

@Shanemansj13 who did jokic primarily guard?

Really glad I posted this then. That would be super fucked up if you encountered this, had a reaction and didn’t know it was your allergy kicking in.

I’m very real with the kids I teach. I’ve told multiple groups when this stuff comes up in class discussion that they don’t get the mulligan their parents generation got. I tell them they likely have parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, coaches and teachers that experimented with bad choices when they were younger. Because of the fact that fentanyl is getting laced in seemingly everything these days that one bad decision could be their last. The risk of that has never been higher. Scary shit.

@Shanemansj13 who did jokic primarily guard?

Allen.

He picked up several fouls when he was switched onto Mobley.

Cancar was the main victim of Mobley’s abuse.

Either way, this is just most ready example. Are you questioning him being targeted actually being “a thing”? I don’t think anyone questions that anymore. The only push back I recall on this was @tlance argument that part of why he gets targeted is the desire to wear him out to slow him down on the offensive end.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Allen.

Did the Cavs run stuff with the intent of getting Joker switched on Mobley?

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Not really.

Because, Cancar and Porter were easy money.

I remember Joker picking up a few fouls trying to double or picking up Mobley in transition.

He did have a few one on one situations against Joker.

Ended in a foul or a bucket.

Kid didn’t miss much last night.

more proof of why these star players today won’t play at the Mecca…

He wouldn’t get away with that kind of play for a game. NY media would eat him alive !

Isn’t funny that the only all star that does play at the Mecca hasn’t missed a game! Julius Randle.

Ehhh don’t give me Brunson, he isn’t an all star, Lol .

Are you talking about Randle?

Not trying to pick a fight here.

But, when you have Mitchell Robinson on your roster, you probably shouldn’t be throwing stones.

Always injured.

When he isn’t, he underperforms most nights.

Gonna have to side eye you on Evan Fournier as well.
