2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

Agree, if he really has a issue.

Spot on, Wamupedia.

I'm ready for the playoffs. The regular season seems like it's in slow motion as the end nears.

Embiid not man enough to play Jokic tonight lol

What a joke

Pick a lane. I thought he cared more about the MVP than winning a championship? 3rd game in 4 days and he didn’t look like himself in Phoenix.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Should have sat him out vs Phoenix. That was a b2b. Imo playing this game was a must unless you had a serious injury. Disappointed to say the least

It’s not a must. Harden was unavailable Saturday but available tonight.

Benefit of the doubt for me, Embiid just doesn’t seem like a guy that dodges anything.

 

[shopson67]

Which implies he was again, ever good on offense.

14ppg on 66% shooting is far from terrible

Not sure why people would assume he’s ducking a player he’s out played head to head his whole career.

 

[shopson67]

Lebron not being T’d up there Was joke

If Tatum did tbat to protest the travel he likely gets T’d up

What difference does it make? It's not like he's getting to 16 this year and the game was over.

What a joke

Not man enough? Didn't he dominate him the last time they played? 47 and 18.....

LOL.

Do you consider Luka a generational talent?

That is a good question.

It depend how you define that.

Pretty easy to say MJ and LeBron were.

To me, that is the 1 guys who has been the best player in the league for a stretch of years.

Giannis is closest to that today.

I think Luka can get there? But I would bet on not. Too many guys close to his level right now. And Vic looks like he could be the next one of all goes according to plan with him.

That's a pretty big assumption on a kid that hasn't played game 1 in the pros, and over Luka?

It's laughable for anyone to suggest Embiid's ducking Jokic. He owns him head to head, like you said.

A player like Ben Simmons avoids playing. Embiid wouldn't do that.

So, it’s official.

Whatever Perk says, assume the opposite is true.

* Looks like, not is.

I agree with him.

Yep.

Generational talent fluctuates.

On a day with nothing going on, we should pick the generational talent of every decade…starting with the 80’s.

I can’t judge guys anytime before that.

Still will be tough to do with guys like Lebron, Jordan, Magic, Bird, KAJ overlapping multiple decades.

So, maybe we base it on the decade they were drafted and do a top 3?

This man has a vote? I rest my case on all this media picking important shit being stupid.

@Black Adam

You see the stills from Joker 2?

Lady Gaga looks crazy asf as Harley Quinn.

She just might pull this shit off.

Im looking forward to getting away from this silly ass, slapstick comic book movies.

Lets get dark, Bro!!!!

I always thought he was a clown.

But, after the race baiting MVP stuff, I was done with him.

Sadly, yes…he has a vote.

After that rant, it should be stripped.

Did you see the Le Batard post when he was undressing Screaming A?

He is 100% correct.

It’s all about the ratings, screw the ethics.

Yep this is embarrassing

You don’t think the calf thing is legit?
