Cj McCollum balling, Covington balling, Norman Powell balling before he got injured and you still have Nurkic, Larry Nance junior. Who are those people who said Lillard had zero help? cheesy

Dawn Staley is definitely changing the story in NCAA women's basketball. She is non-apologetic, courageous and her style is consistent on the court. We may be seeing the end of G. Auriemma's strangle hold on NCAA Women's basketball, his last title was in 2016. I believe this is great for competition and Women's college basketball.

We're in a snowflake era where we put everyone in mothballs. This is the outcome. Imagine laying such an egg in the playoffs and your mentality is not about getting on the court and fixing your mistakes and changing the narrative about you

The next CBA go bloody

Yeah it’s a snowflake era but I think this is a bit different.

This is a case of a boy who was born with natural athletic genes to a basketball player father. Even in high school and college many doubted his own love for the game.

He never really had that much interest in basketball. If he was born in Minna he would have been a NEPA official pulling down cable.

Yeah I get you but what I'm saying is in the olden days he would have caught real heat and would never get to this point cause he would have been sussed out.

Unlike now that everyone can excuse everything and all type of lack of accountability with 'mental health issues'

So the Suns really don't want to see the Lakers in the playoffs cheesy Even as we bad reach. They rested Book, Ayton and Crowder against OKC and now they're going to deploy all of them against the sorry Lakers to extinguish any chance of us making the play-in and thus 8th place.

Ajala has always been a mental midget but guess what Ajala, deleting the tweet does not mean the internet forgets.. grin grin

The Lakers are 17 games under 500 in a weaker conference.

The Lakers do not have a 1st round pick until 2027, 5 years from this season.

The Lakers miss the freaking play-in.

2021-2022- Miss the playoffs
2020-2021- First Round Exit
2019-2020- Championship
2018-2019- Missed the playoffs

AD might be done, 18% from 3 and no 35+pt game in 40 games played this season ( for context, 11 players have scored 35+pts at least 10 times this season). Dude might just be on the backend of his career

Lmaoo you people hyping AD after that Disney ring owe me an apology. I take them in Bitcoin, AVAX and XRP.

And don't tell me I was hyping this team entering the season. A nigga was playing devil's advocate. This team should not be 17 games under .500 in a conference with 3 teams openly tanking

Anyway what we have established is that the bubble ring was a dodgy one like we knew all along

Bro.
A40:
He is still an above average offense runner. You don't lead the league in assists without being good at running an offense

They don't have to be. All I know is with their size they are definitely going to be a problem

Hahaha this guy don't use laugh to kill me. Who is guarding Lebron or AD in Brooklyn? Who is their defensive answer for those 2?

You're hoping. AD is injury prone but he is not going to be hurt every year

Doesn't matter. They are still not an elite defense like the Lakers can be especially since they have a better defensively sound coach.

Stephen A saying the GOAT conversation is officially over because of what transpired this season is the most laughable thing ever grin. It just shows you how LeBron is held to a different standard from everybody who ever played the game of basketball. A 37-year old man in his 19th season who was on and off because of injuries, who was also missing his sidekick for more than half the season. Lmao. Where was MJ in his 19th season? That's right. He was eating cheese cakes and getting fat on his couch. Like I don't get. The same standard LeBron was held to at 27 is still the standard he's held to at 37. I know he's superhuman but come on cheesy
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 11:02pm On Apr 07, 2022
Stephen A already preaching what we already know. LeNomad played with at least 2 HOFers at every point this season and still failed to make the playoffs

Michael Jordan at 40 with no Allstar caliber player finished 35-47. LeNomad is about to finish at least 19 games under. 500. Even the most irate Bronsexual has to realize at some point that the debate is done

This is the most spectacular failure in all of basketball history. This is worse than the 2011 meltdown if we're keeping it a buck

Excuses, excuses excuses. Mate, you should be less loquacious this period. What an embarrassment. Not even a top 10 team in the western conference; and to think they were one of the favourites to win it all this year coupled with the now infamous “keep that same energy “ remark from LBJ make it ridiculous. Dude, the World is just keeping that same energy and you should very quiet �!. MJ wizards even had a better record than the superstars-populated Lakers!

The biggest blame goes to Lebron himself. See, when you talk too much, you better back it up. That is why even Steve Kerr was throwing shade openly. I have been following Lebron for a minute, and he tends to do badly when people are heaping praises on him. He needs this dose of humility, after all this foolish goat talk.

No GOAT refers to themselves as GOAT. It is a conferred title, it is not you that will use your hand and take it. I hope people keep throwing shade all off-season. It will get so hot all the sycophants will leave and we can get a grounded Lebron next year.
