MVP - Divide it into two between Giannis and Harden

ROY - Luka Doncic. Trae Young didn't wake up till after All-star Break. Assists is the only department Trae Young tops Luka

on ROY, Luka is not really a rookie, which is why he didnt have to "wake up". Dude was a pro already. Trae Young is a real rookie, and you can see as his NBA mind has been developing all season. Having watched many Hawks games this year, Trae is no longer just an assists guy. It is scary how much PG skills he has developed in a season. This guy will at least be as good as Jason Kidd. And he is now comfortable stroking the long ball. And Im saying this as someone who really didnt care for Hawks or Trae.

On MVP, Im partial to Harden of course. I think Giannis takes it, but Harden has a strong case - for a good chunk of the season, CP3 and Capella were out. Harden held the fort and kept Rockets in the hunt in the Westeros conference.

Deliberately killing another human still shocks me. The sad thing is, that place has a canal where those miscreants stay and it happens from time to time. Knowing Nigeria, nothing will be done. I'm pack my bags once I'm done.
Upon their meagre salary, I can't count how many times I've seen them pay for patients bills. From common #4500 chest x-ray to CT scan of like #60000. They sometimes contribute when patients can't afford CT scan. It's not even doctors alone. The average decent Nigerian deserves a better life and that life is outside Nigeria.

bro man, take heart. I have never met this guy, but the way you describe him makes him real to me. Unfortunately, everyone has enough stories of vibrant, good people just dying like fowls because nothing works in the country.

After convocation? Kai! May God comfort the mother and family.

Hardetayour:
Lol. When does he ever smile?

ok nau. since you know he never smiles, always looking like grim reaper , why is it now you are concerned about his demeanor. You guys know losing him is a possibility, so you are trying to be the first to sever this relationship

donlittle25:
me I just keep quiet with the whole political theory thing. I never get myself involved in things like this.

One thing is for certain, there is no accountability among everyone. Whites and Blacks alike. All Na blame game.

wise man

Hardetayour:
Am I the only one that hates KDs demeanour. I'm now 51% sure he's leaving at the end of the season

haba, you want him to smile all the time?

SmooshCHN:
I'm not trying to make it a race thing. As for this sad case, people wanted to make it a political thing and ignore the obvious. Well, it only gets clear with time.

i know what you mean. and indeed, it is an internal issue that needs to be dealt with. the issue has been clear for a while. but anyone who has tried to deal with it becomes a pariah. Cosby was already losing supporters when he started talking about changing culture..this was a decade ago

aliondo:
Congratz bro!!!!

i never win anything nau

killrhymz all your evil eye will fail IJN

SmooshCHN:
Denying black on black crime would be a stupid thing to do right now. They need to acknowledge that they have a problem in the community. It's this same gang shit.

bro, this is not the occasion. nobody is shouting white on white crime. why single out blacks when famous people die. either way, a painful tragedy.

on the other hand, folks do need to watch out. dont think because you do good in your neighborhood, your haters stop hating. you need body guards even if its your hood.

nuggets are a bigger threat than rockets.

Of course he's wrong but I like what he said anyway. Considering he dragged a worse Lakers team to the playoffs. This season sheds more light on what Kobe had to do in the 05/06 and 06/07 seasons when he had to drag Smush Parker and Kwame Brown to the playoffs.

nah. the league was not that loaded then. If your winning pct was just under .5, you still made the playoffs in the west.

on another note, all the rule changes talent infusion from abroad makes this league s different beast. Talent is no longer enough, like it was when Kobe was the leagues MVP.. Everyone has talent now.

trae young is making a case for rookie of the year

Round 1 is almost over, ends Sunday. Here are thr current scores. Please feel free to bet a bottle of orijin on who you think wins each round. Or insult your enemy

Round 2 has started with a bang...Nurkic is out. Embiid might be next. Some folk are trying to win by every diabolical means possible

A40:
In a team sport you just don't go out and call yourself the GOAT. I've never heard such arrogance since I started following sports. This is what I told some of your LeNomad fanboys when they were bringing up Muhammad Ali and other erroneous examples.

Core Lakers fans are entitled and no get chill. They will boo him out of town if the wins don't start coming next year. It's only his fanboys masquerading as Lakers fans that are not grumbling yet already

Jordan was far from perfect. As was Kobe. LeKing gat flaws too. But he gon bring a ring to LA bookit

A40:
Your boy so insecure. He's done so much you would think he would be at peace but no always has to be about him one way or another.

This is what puts him beneath the true GOAT, on court play aside, that constant need for reassurance and affirmation that hunger for the spotlight

Like Isaiah Thomas said, greatness demands humility. Even Jordan has never called himself the GOAT. Maybe its a generational thing. Maybe its a Lebron personality thing. Buuut, my dude needs to grow up.

I doubt this can happen in LA though. They love a circus down there. And Lebron is willing

lebron too dey talk. leave lonzo ball and family business alone. face ur front

SmooshCHN:
Max Kellerman says it,
Shannon Sherpe says it,
Nick Wright says it,
You see where I'm going with this?
There's a similar trend with this. Notice how all over them are the worst sports analyst on the Media when it comes to basketball?


Stephen A Smith stopped riding LeBron's D when Bron called him fake news and now only says it when it suits his argument.
Skip Bayless disputes it and says it's KD. Bruh!! It's 2019 not 2013.

Steph A has never been a Lebron fan. He had to go with the flow for a while because he would have looked like a hater. The moment difficulties arose for Lebron, dude revealed his true colors. Have you watched Django? SAS reminds me of Stephen - low down, down low hater. Fear people like this.

all teams in contention lost tonite. but this warriors loss is concerning. these guys think they gon just turn it on come playoffs.

Playoffs are here!

A40:
Dirk entered the league 98 though. He met some of the roughness

And he couldnt handle it. Remember they used to manhandle him regularly. He had to bulk up and get strong. Even then he had to be forced to play like an NBA forward. And post Avery Johnson as coach he has slowly reverted back to being a shooter that avoids contact.

Malone was and is a ruff rider. All day, everyday.

Killrhymz:
Harden has now scored 30 or more on every team this season.

does this work in post season though? In 3 of the last 4 playoffs, Harden gasses out.

im hoping g this year is different. buuut bball is a simple game

donlittle25:
Malone or Dirk?

Guys seriously.

Malone. Even though I like Dirk and hated Malone, Stockton, anything Jazz.

No social media to hype folks up then so guys like Malone get lost. Without Jordan, Malone wins a ring or 2.

Malone will be an allstar in this era. Dirk would be a steve kerr in that era. That was a grown mans game.

donlittle25:
To be fair to LeBron though, he said playoff mode activated, but didn't say which season. Safe to say it's not 2018-2019 NBA season. Maybe next year

my man. na so u dey troll awa king for here?

Beware the praise of men. always do you.

Like Isaiah Thomas said, there is something about greatness that demands humility.

A40:
Bahahahahaha. We gave them fair warning. The West is a different beast we said, we would bow they said. Who is bowing now? Out of the playoffs I might add


Bahahahahaha they said I was writing epistle

This team could have gotten to the second round in the west and everyone knows it. The way they were dismantling Warriors before Lebrons injury is proof.

The big blunder was overshopping the young core in trade talks. Now the cry babies refuse to play because their feelings were hurt. Id trade them all this off season and get professionals, not kids who should really be in college eating ramen noodles

[quote author=Roland17 post=76152129][/quote]na your pikin be dat?

People were saying Durant was going to be the next best player in the league as Lebron starts to age. To me, I feel like that baton is going to Antetokoumpo instead.

Maybe being on a talented warriors is reducing how much Durant has to do, but if I had to choose between these two, it would be the greek freak.

Ewuro4:

original bitterleaf!

im happy to see lebron STILL giving folks sleepless nights. Even after a loss . We know haters think about Le King all the time. Wake up in cold sweats from nightmares of Lebron winning another ring Still shook up about coming back from 3-1

Its ok, the kings envoys salute you
