2022-23 Around the League Thread

[nuraman00]

Well, that pic is not real.

You always post fake stuff.

 

[MHSL82]

Pathetic. 15-7 is best? No dominance by any team for this stretch. That’s 56-26.

 

[nuraman00]

The Nets you piece of s***. All Bridges did was start the game, commit a foul, and leave.

 

[nuraman00]

I wanted him to legitimately play the game. At least play a quarter.

 

[nuraman00]

For one day, the Nets Are The Worst Team In Sports.

Not the Utah Jazz.

 

[nuraman00]

There's 3 Worst Team In Sports today.

1) The Brooklyn Nets for not letting Bridges play a real game, or even real quarter.

2) The Denver Nuggets, for changing the Ball Skills Challenge:

I'll be Jokic.

How many combined rebounds and assists? Doncic sucks at FTs, so Jokic would have the edge there.

3) The Utah Jazz, for reminding me of a loss they had in their final regular season game, 7 years ago. And for losing again today to the same team, same bat place.

I don't know when @MHSL82 will start a new thread.

Not happy with Wembanyana's rebounding. Especially not for how tall he is.

Those are PF rebounding numbers, not center rebounding numbers.

I'd also like to see a lot more than zero assists. For someone touted as a generational player, he has to be very versatile.

Oh, no, not this again with another San Antonio Center. He did get the standard 15-21 points so he must be on track. He just needs the rings and blocks and he’s good to go. And some rebounds.

Yes, but in this case, I'm saying he's underwhelming, in his first game.

Whereas most people said that Duncan was properly or over whelming.

Duncan at least would get assists.

Bridges is still on pace to play 83 games this year. Let's hope it happens!

I’m not a Sixers fan, obviously, but I wouldn’t mind them winning every series in seven games. I would’ve actually preferred them losing today and then winning the next game and then winning four series of seven games. That way, Hield would play 115 games.

The 76ers sharpshooter is in the playoffs for the first time in his eight-year career. Here's why he needed more games than most to get there.

Wow, you told me something before anyone else did, again! You've been on fire lately. Triple fire.

I think I will count the in season tournament title game as a regular season game.

I will not count the play-in game as a regular season game. Play-in is its own category. Unfortunately. Or, I'd be fine with counting play-in as a part of the playoffs.

Regardless, 84 games is great. 85 games with the in season title game is great too.

 

[nuraman00]

And, he played for real. Unlike the stupid Nets who took Bridges out after one foul, in game # 83, last year.

 

[nuraman00]

I've been rooting for this, for any team (regardless of how many regular season games its players played).

The most we got were 26/28 games.

Why did you randomly put the Mars male symbol in a post on national Womens' Day?

This is still pretty funny.
