2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Wasn’t his gun.

No, it was not.

He just transported it to the scene where a crime was committed.

The proof of that is in his own phone.

Shooter requests he bring him the gun, he does, a person dies.

But, yeah…

Total coincidence that he just so happened to show up on the scene with the very weapon that was requested.

But, nah….I didn’t see the text, didn’t know the gun was there?

Ewww.

But, it really was not his gun.

That has already been investigated.


Investigators believe the gun belonged to Miles, 21, but believe Davis, 20, pulled the trigger. Both have been jailed without bond since Jan. 15.

I mean Jordan was a wing too. He was 6-6

Him and pipp is very much like PG and kawhi

OK so Jordan was an alpha wing. Pippen was the best non-alpha wing ever?

But, Jordan was a Alpha.

The crux of the exercise is to name the best wings that were not alphas on their teams.

Harder than I would have thought…lol

I was gonna go Tony Allen.

But, he was the antithesis of Cedic Ceballos/ Michael Porter Jr.

How about Michael Cooper?

 

[shopson67]

Yeah, I heard one report the other day where they said he would be re-evaluated on the 19th and another that said the 23rd.

Read something this morning (I think from Shams) that put it closer to the 23rd. The report also said that his foot feels much better and he was shooting free throws yesterday.

I'm betting he comes back with about 5 or so games left.

That seemed to be the estimate on Lakers Nation last night too. Hope he's back to split the back to back in early April with AD...

So we're calling Pippen a beta, lol?

Probably.

He was better than George.

Reggie Miller was Alpha on his team.

Kinda a 1 way guy too.

Wade was a alpha.

How about Alex English?

Pippen, Dumars, Bosh, George, Cooper, Odom, Eddie Jones….

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

So we're calling Pippen a beta, lol?

He was.

Even in Portland and Houston.

He wasn’t a legit #1….imo

Not a franchise guy.

But, probably the best beta EVER.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

So we're calling Pippen a beta, lol?

Yes

Especially in light of MJ's son banging his ex

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Oh shit….

@msgkings322

Shawn Marion.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Yes

Good lord you just cannot understand this discussion, no need to keep trying

 

[msgkings322]

Oh shit….

@msgkings322

Shawn Marion.

Is he better than Pippen though?

Pippen might not qualify because he was an alpha for the couple of years Jordan was playing baseball. But then he pulled that bitch move not coming into the game when Phil called a final shot for Kukoc instead in the playoffs....so beta LOL

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

No chance he goes 2, 4 at best

That’s what I thought.

But….

But the Henderson-Miller conversation has become real over the course of the last few weeks for many…

But the Henderson-Miller conversation has become real over the course of the last few weeks for many who work within NBA front offices. There are a few reasons for that. Largely, it has do with Mil…

Brandon Miller ahead of Scoot Henderson in draft boards?

I alluded to this in my column Monday when I wrote about Scoot Henderson’s somewhat disappointing season with G League Ignite, but Alabama’s Brandon Miller is making the No. 2 spot on draft boards …

No.

Pippen is tops.

Just trying to come up with guys that fit the criteria and it’s harder than anticipated.

Pippen, Dumars, Bosh, George for me.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Shit…James Worthy before Dumars.

 

[msgkings322]

Lamar Odom?

Bosh is a good one but he was an alpha for a while on Toronto...

PG was too, on Indiana and OKC

So maybe Dumars, Marion, Jaylen Brown (still young might be an alpha someday), does Klay Thompson count as a wing?

 

[bksballer89]

 

[msgkings322]

Right, forgot him, Worthy might be the answer here

Exactly

Klay.

Ffs, Klay.

I forgot Brown too.

My GAWD….lol

Jrue Holiday.

Yes, Klay is a wing…imo

Guys who can play G/F are wings.
