Ja is already by far the best player of that draft especially when you include off the court issues.

Quick question, if Zion struggles with his weight continues, should the Pelicans give him a max extension?

Pelicans would be dumb to do anything till he shows his durability and also there's something to be said about the unwillingness or inability to play defense. They will probably pay out of desperation. They really missed on Ja.

2014 McCarthy choked
2016 Bad day at the office
2019 Bad day at the office
2020 LaFleur choked

Spoken like a true Aaron Fraudgers disciple

2014: Since I started watchin the NFL Rodgers is the first QB I've seen that failed to win despite his defense gifting him 4 interceptions

2016: Every day in the NFC title game is a bad day for Fraudgers. The same Falcons team that crushed him by 5 scores Brady came from 25 pts down to beat. There's levels to this

2018: Aaron Fraudgers fraudulentin as usual beaten by 5 scores again

2020: After throwin a scrotum crushing pick at the verge of halftime which Goat Brady promptly converted and Rodgers unable to convert 3 straight downs, if you were Lefleur tell me you wouldn't take the ball off Fraudgers's hands

Jodera:
Does that mean it wasn't a great team he met there capable of winning everything?
My point is clear, zidane is a great coach, not undermining his feat, cos it's not easy feat.
But he's not better or more tactical than klopp

Capable schmapable. The koko is Zidane came into a team in higher stakes environment and delivered at a historical clip and without extensive spending either. We also have their head to head clashes as proof Zizou has the number of Klopp

I actually admire Klopp's style and man management but there's a reason he will always avoid the big clubs with high expectations like a plague

Jodera:
Finished 2nd in la liga(2pts shy of winners barca) and was Cl finalist semi finalists the previous season.

Tell me if that's a small club or a club in turmoil or lacking players when he took over?

There were definitely in turmoil else they wouldn't have sacked his predecessor midseason

birdman:
Im happy for Trez on the real. Wizards are looking for #2, #3 scoring options to complement Beal. No other star to share time with, so you should get 30+ minutes a night as a starter. Beal alone can score enough to keep Wiz in the game, so they have a chance to win on any given night. This kind of situation comes like once in an NBA lifetime. If played right, you can get a huge contract off of this.

Of the 3, I suspect Trez is the most ready to take advantage.Kuzma tends to get lost as season progresses.

I'm sure Beal will be relieved he has some scoring help this year. Don't sleep on Kuzma there's some Julius Randle vibes there. Its just getting his fundamentals in check. If his hoops IQ ever matches his confidence thats an all star in the making

Jodera:
Diego Simeone haven't carried CL so there's no comparison.

Zidane is a V.good coach no doubt, but not near klopp. Even his 2nd stint at Madrid have only faded barca (with only messi) and athletico to slug it out with. You can't compare it with klopp Liverpool who have endless money of Man city to drag it with right from the scratch.

When Zidane arrived at R.Madrid, they were a very very top team, you can't say same from klopp at Dortmund or Liverpool

Same Benitez Madrid Barca were knackin sans Messi? Didn't Klopp need 3 seasons before even dragging for league title

Where was Madrid when Zizou took over?

Roland17:
Head wen big no dey miss knock.. Bring that your big head come here.. Baba go back him scrap book go bring JJ Watt! This one off me.. Who is JJ Watt since his season ending injury with the Texans? Baba, abeg find another Lamba to sell.

Lol you're asking me who a 3 time DPOY is? Someone who was their best run defender and the guy that was leading them in tackles for losses? Anyway we already know the drill with you Fraudgers disciples, its laugh now cry later

birdman:
None of those 3 has been doing well until this last game. I was especially surprised because KCP looked like the most ready to take it to the next level. Lets see a couple of more games first.

If all 4 (plus Beal) are scoring in double figures every night, the East has a new problem then. But I doubt it. Kuz is never focused enough. Trez cant drop 20 every night.

Haba. Iro o da. All 3 have actually been balling and Kuzma in particular has been a machine on the boards. Someone like Kuzma this is the best spot for him where he can grow and his every mistake is not magnified. As for Trez he got in his feelings after the Clippers debacle and jumped from frying pan to fire. He's looking for the payday he missed out last season, would be shocked if he didn't ball

Markswag101:
Rodgers is the GOAT #GreenBay4Life

At losing NFC title games? Yes

Interesting seeing Kuzma, Montrezl and KCP flourishing in Washington. I thought you guys said LeNomad made people better. Hmmm


They still have Hachimura out. Some young teams have really piqued my curiosity this early stages. (Cavs, Wizards, Hornets) With Cavs that guard trio of Rubio, Garland and Sexton. I saw their odds vs the Clippers some days back and I was so sure they would win I staked on it. I want to add Memphis to that mix. Solely cos of Ja cos I don't trust Jaren Jackson, for his size he is a shockingly poor rebounder and even as a scorer he is too reliant on the 3 ball

There was a game that had 96 3's this week. 96! This is getting absurd

The OP of this thread is clearly suffering from a severe case of Beta Male Simp Manginitis.

Roland17:
@A40 and other haters, come and pay HOMAGE TO THE GOAT!

Who exactly was this man throwing to tonight?

Everyone, throughout the week picked the Cardinals to dismantle the Packers. No one gave us a chance!

We had players out injured on both ends of the field!

PUT SOME RESPECT TO THE NAME!!!!!!

K. Murray is a stud though! This kid is legit....Despite the weapons he has, he distinguishes himself..

You do realize JJ Watt was hurt right? Anyway we go see for playoffs no be today we don see regular season Rodgers dey show himself. His dad wey e dey try impersonate dey wait am for playoffs

Roland17:
@A40, come out and tell us the receivers the GOAT is throwing to against the 7-0 red hot Cardinals

When Aaron Fraudgers begins winning SBs with Chris Hogan and Danny Amendola @ me

benji93:
I am praying for that man. He shall not fall sick or get injured. I want to see something.

Not even a strong believer in karma per se but when you consider how unprofessional he went about leaving the Rockets you begin to wonder. Perhaps if he got to training camp in shape he wouldn't have gotten hurt last season, we will never know. The Harden in Houston would take 25-30 shots in the regular season knowing fully well thats what it would take. Surely he must know what he is putting out there does not give his team a fair shot at winning

birdman:
The NBA posted a series of tweets on the rule change before season started, and Harden was one of the examples they used on what the change meant. Which is why I stayed away from Harden in fantasy this year. I fully expected his scoring to drop by 10pts at least. Of course when my enemies picked him in round 1, I could not but laugh and thank my God

Lmao which is why I always found the whole most 'dynamic' scorer of all time banter a whole bunch of foolishness. Maybe prolific but there was absolutely nothing dynamic about his scoring. What I want to see is if he can evolve to the point where if he's fouled we know its a real foul and not the fugazy calls he was getting for eons. This is a dude that previously got to the line 9-10 times a game on average under the previous jurisdiction, who gamed the system so much he got more fouls on 3's than Dame and Steph combined. Its not if the numbers will drop, its the severity I'm curious to see

TheHulk616:
Laporta is back Barcelona is back.

Xavi on the wheel!!!

raumdeuter:
I agree. Coman wont be deserving of that 20M, we already overpaid for Sane, And overpaying for Coman wont be the solution

If Coman makes way, Musiala or Karim Adeyemi can take his place

Sane and Hernandez are two examples, if the board doesn't draw a line now they never will and it will be downhill moving forward. No player coming to the negotiation table will make concessions, I'm sold on Adeyemi as a long term option. He will be available for relatively cheap and he can play at the wings in the interim till Lewa leaves and he reverts to his primary CF role

Khanben:
It will be a huge catastrophe for Harden if his season continues like this, not just for his legacy but also his pocket. Remember he rejected a healthy payday, trying to bet on himself getting a near supermax extension. Added to his detractors who if his poor play continues will start saying he was only a multiple time scoring champion because of the flopping he did in his Houston years

Too many maga teams in the NBA. He will certainly get his money. What I want to see is just how much of an impact the rule change will make, will he evolve his scoring arsenal because he is quite average for a 3pt shooter and had always hinged on drawing fouls. Or will he just resign to playmaking because in Kyrie's absence I expected he will take more shots instead he is taking fewer shots. It makes no sense, maybe its a confidence thing

Roland17:
Harden will be fine.. He will make some adjustments to his offense, he is one of the best students of the game when it comes to learning the rules and interpreting on the court. He is also struggling to lose the weight he gained while trying to force a move out of Houston so he looks 2-3 steps slow and heavy with the ball. You may want to check that TO leader because Brodie just posted 10 tonight.

The Lakers were up 26 but somehow lost the game. But again, many of the teams we will see in the post season are trying to figure out their rosters, so I won't read too much into it.

Won't be naive to suggest he will turn to a scrub, however its hard to change your game in the 9th inning as they say. What I suspect will happen is we start seeing Harden's regular season numbers start to look an awful lot like his playoff numbers so we're less shocked by his playoff choking. He got more foul calls on 3pt attempts than Steph and Dame combined

joshboo:
We can all see Harden has been a fraud right from Time, na this one people sey compare to steph? .. All the frauds would get exposed from now on, person go dey go line 15times every night drawing ridiculous fouls, Na now I understand why shefolosa dey bench an for OKC, To think the fraud had the Audacity to go at Giannis is preposterous. Love how the NBA has brought back old school basketball let's see the physical plays

I like that guys can guard him now. I bet he wishes he could run and just dunk like Giannis

Is it this small rule change that has turned Harden to Al Farouq Aminu? League leader in turnovers. 2nd worst in FG % among volume shooters

I see Lakers lost to OKC of all teams. This is why early season basketball na cruise. The bad teams don't yet know they are bad

Generational talent is Kareem,Bird, Magic, GOAT, Hakeem,Malone Shaq, Kobe, Dirk,Duncan, LeNomad, KD, Steph, Giannis. All these other names I'm seeing omo ko ye mi

raumdeuter:
Coman has improved in recent times no lies, but for the amount he is demanding, which is more than what Goretzka and Kimmich are getting, is he really deserving and this is Kimmich that hardly gets injured.

One thing is the moment you give Coman 20M, all the others like Gnabry and co will start asking for 20M minimum

We will wind up like Barca if we cave. Coman is good and has delivered a 6th CL but he's also a sure bet to miss 10 to 15 games a season on average. Add that to the fact that he cannot guarantee you 12 goals a season then the math just ain't mathing

Now imagine you guys at Anfield Will be a blood bath

For Liverpool yes of course

I no dey suprised. That Borussia Park is jinxed

They think it's beans to 3peat..befofe Zidane no 1 had defended it in the 21st century. He came and won 3 and 1 as an assistant manager.
Sigh

People just be saying anything mayne

AnfieldFan:
You're a Madrid fan... There's no comparison between Klopp and Zidane....
Klopp is an overachiever....He rates his greatest achievement as bringing Mainz to the Bundlesliga...
This Klopp brought Liverpool the title after a 30 year wait in a league that had Pep and Pep's spending power...

Mentioning Zizou in the same conversation as Klopp is disrespectful...
Not taking anything away from Zizou...But some people are just better at some things no matter how hard you try....
Fred won't ever have Ronaldinho's ball control skills if he practices for 20 years ... That's the situation concerning Zidane and Klopp/Pep

Unpopular opinion...I'd pick Bielsa over Zizou..

Lol you people are not serious at all. What do you mean no comparison to Klopp and Zidane? This Zidane disrespect I don't even understand. The man won a CL 3peat. You think its beans?

upon all the brand, man u is struggling to get results. Ronaldo's No 7 brand is outdated and no longer in Vogue.

Results have nothing to do with brand. New England Patriots have won 6 Superbowls in the last 20 years, they will never be as big of a brand as the Dallas Cowboys who have won nothing in 20 years. Ronaldo has more followers on Social media than all EPL clubs combined. If you're in doubt of the size of his brand show me any footballer hell any sportsman who has the kind of pull he does. The man survived a r@pe allegation in this me too cancel cancel era. Even cancellation merchants like Nike had to apply diplomacy. No joke with Ororo oh
