This lone alpha thing dey sweet LeBron First 30k/8k/8k and just averaged a triple double for the month. Has 850 consecutive games of scoring in double figures. He'll probably bag his seventh consecutive February player of the month. And he's 33... IT, please come back |
Mizjemie25:I'm coming over...

Donlittle:Firstly, his antics aren't what's keeping Kawhi out. That's an ankle injury in the playoffs I think. Kawhi developed a tendinopathy in his quads after that recovery. That being said, Zaza's fall was extra. Yes, he got hooked but he knew where he's falling and went all through. This as well as most of his dirty plays seem inadvertent but NBA needs to come down on him. A warning or fine should stifle that guy. And you won't win an argument about a Warriors player even if Zaza slapped WB. The fans will tell you he had Chorea. So, don't bother |
annc:I'm in love...
|
Donlittle:About damn time... These 2 championships with no finals MVP is seriously rubbing off on his greatness But not this year abeg. I don't know what I'll do if I watch another Cavs/Warriors love story |
3nim:So this is my wife...
|
SmooshCHN:Precisely. Wall woulda done a chase down block, Porzingis is the king of swats, Love is the best shooting centre in the NBA and Cousins the best dribbling 5 in the NBA. They are patriot saints of the NBA... ![]() After seeing Team Steph jack up only 8 halfcourt shots in the practice to Team LeBron's non shooting 13, I knew there's no hope ![]() |
jumzzy448:That's what these Nlers no know The old rents here no get time to quote am cos we sabi am. Her energy in typing one post is more than your 100 posts combined. Funny enough, the guy that started this thing haff run... Instead I'm still seeing inconsequential epistles ebe niile |
So the 2 strong points we thought Team Steph had: ball handling and shooting were all for nought? Thank heavens those 4 LeBron players got injured to make this thing close. If not ![]() |

Franky826:Who launch am? Where in the world has a customer used it? Oga, shut up if you don't have anything good to say. |
A40:Without Schroder and Bazemore Clippers depth is better with Galinari back. Now, they can compete for that last playoff spot with Pelicans and Jazz while Pistons dey look people wey dey up Clippers, scammers ni yen. Los Angeles MMM... |
People are dropping 50 points in wins, somebody dropped his first in 4 years in an L. Chai... Warriors and Celtics need this All Star break more than anybody Rockets back on top... |
MitrikDenholm:You don start ooo Make we no hear anything about "no help" when the losing streak starts... |
Lol. Jazz must be dosing all their opponents with something... |
Sansa143:Open your door. I want to talk to you...
|
MitrikDenholm:LeBron will surely be back in it. After all, he got what he wanted as the only alpha on the team. These players now, have submissive talents to give him the stats he needs. Na the Ws matter, if he can rack enough; then his chance would be good. He should be tied with Curry for 2nd... |
A40:You know this... Casey has turned that team around, having the right balance of offense and defense in the NBA. They are the team for me to come out of the East. Whichever team comes out no be my business, I no just wan see Cavs/Warriors again |
NBA told coaches to select reserves from the list that had Manu Ginobili and Lonzo Ball NBA shoulda selected Ben Simmons above Dragic and Kemba since he's on the list and they weren't. Things I hear ![]() Eruditor:You came up with October to December stats, its been trounced You came up with a Jan 4th list that coaches used to select reserves, it's been trounced. Sorry, sorry, this still sounds funny in my head anytime I read it Coaches list vs FIFA's list. Oh my days ![]() Now you've come up with the bolded. Not using CP3's injury as a factor to back up Klay Thompson amazing "October to December" 3rd scoring option performances . I have a headache ![]() You see why arguing with you is fun? Anybody reading that bolded would curse... ![]() Anyways, you won't get any other quote from me. We'd just watch your Klay Thompson's All Star performances from here on... Good night, NBA family ![]() |
Eruditor:This is where you erred and now I'm happy to school you and then drop the Mic. There has never been a time coaches used a list to select reserves All Star selections start off with the fan vote, that select Starters. Media and Players rank the top vote getters (starters) and NBA gets the weighted average. That's just for starters Coaches choose the reserves from their conferences, never using the rest of the players on the list. If there's an injury, Adam Silver replaces. Every player in the NBA that was voted by fans were on that list down to Shabazz Muhammad, who was ranked 52 by the player and media. The NBA from your link just gave the cropped version (Top 10)... Look at these links for yourself for some education: https://www.basketball-reference.com/allstar/NBA_2018_voting.html http://pr.nba.com/2018-nba-all-star-game-starters-voting-results/ Goran Dragic and Kemba Walker were not in the cropped version same as Lou Williams but were used as replacements. The coaches voted a day before 23rd, one of the earliest reserves announcements ever. Therefore, games played in January (>10 games) were used. Klay was picked by the coaches not for his October - December performances but for his team record prior to January 23rd. Coaches could not select a name that was not on that list so even if anyone was playing out of their minds from Jan 1-23 it did not matter. Lou Will step aside.Hin say list before January 1st ![]() Now run off and play somewhere to free your mind from the orgasms you thought you had defending Klay Thompson. Peace... |
Eruditor:Let's see the list the coaches compiled on January 3rd. Waiting for the list Let me also add that in the period in consideration PGs numbers in Points were record low (since his 3rd season),Higher than Klay Thompson's assists (low since his second season) andStill higher than Klay Thompson's rebounds (since his rookie season).And higher than Klay Thompson's ![]() [s]Sure. The coaches are wrong. They selected Iggy in 2012. Klay should outblock KD or Dray, out assist Dray or Curry, outscore Curry or KD, outrebound KD or Dray or outsteal Curry or Dray to be an allstar. So which one is PG doing better than Westbrook? Don't tell me steals because I can use Klay's 3pt shooting as his excuse.October to February: PG13 is better in a winning team I came down to "October to December" and PG13 is still better in a winning team. Lemme help you out once more and this discussion is over. Don't have time for your futile posts... Produce the list or link of the list where the coaches compiled the reserves that were going to be selected on January 4. Do that and I'm done. Thanks |

Eruditor:Oga, just shut up already with this nuisance. The very first voting results were released January 4th. The starters haven't been decided, so how would the coaches start picking reserves before the starters have been selected? Is it not after the voting is concluded, reserves get picked based on their form before the January 23rd date? Your argument is really kindergarten, pshhhhh Even then, I told you that statistically those players were on par with PG shading it but he lost that margin by being number 2 on a team with a worse record than Klay who was number 3.For goodness sake, this is the last I'll repeat this. NOBODY CARES ABOUT THE 3RD SCORING OPTION Draymond isn't the 3rd scoring option, is playing better than Klay and people aren't making noise about him. If Klay were in Blazers, putting up 20ppg as third option, nobody would give a fvck. NOT ONE!!!! He's in the All Star for one reason: His team record. D.umb. Bring these stats during the period of consideration and leave with egg on your face. The margins were a lot smaller between the months that factored into the decision-making of the coaches.And as usual, you typed trash ![]() Paul George was in contention for DPOY as early as November. OKC were the 2nd best defensive team up till January. And here, you're saying his defensive numbers would reduce during that period a lot cos of who? Klay Thompson? ![]() Jesuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu ![]() Between the 3rd scorer on a team of a catch and shoot player and a ball dominant small forward who is the 2nd scorer on his team?You know you have no defense when all you say is 3rd scoring ![]() I did and no 3rd scoring option is doing better than Klay (inconsistent as he has been). Klay whose career stats are better than PGs who was the score first option for most of his life. ![]() The question is WHO WAS MORE DESERVING OF THE ALL-STAR SPOT? That is all I am discussing even when you have tried ever so hard to change it into who is having a better season.The person having the better season, more still in a winning team. Paul George checked both boxes. Klay Thompson just one ![]() Same person who defended the media's decision(not coaches o) to give triple double machine MVP even when someone with a marginally similar record had the 3rd best winning record in the NBA.Ladies and Gentlemen, he's veered off to another Westbrook topic ![]() Your MCM uses a year old argument that's done to cover up for his weak debates. Your MCM is obsessed with Westbrook even after he dropped 2Ls on him this season. Your MCM is 85 ![]() Westbrook averaged a triple double, had over >10 game winners including the one that took his team to the playoffs and then won the MVP. Kill yourself... |
Eruditor:Pure rubbish, unadulterated rubbish... NBA Coaches selected the reserves on the 23rd of January. There were at least 8 games played in January before then? What October to December period are you talking about? You just did this ppg thing to make a role player seem good, didn't you? ![]() Coaches select reserves 80% of the time using team record. Korver, Iguodala and million others say hi. All these your talk na rubbish. If they valued individuality more fairly, players like Lou Williams and Mccollum have better chances than Klay Thompson. Now, listen señor: Prior to the selection of reserves by the coaches, PG13 had a 20.5ppg or so to Thompson's 20.1ppg. This seems to be the only form of stat you're holding on to as "individual contributions" and of course, you failed terribly ![]() Let's expand and school you mate: The defense first: Defensive rebounds: 4.6>3.6 PG13 Steals: 2.2>0.7 PG13 Defensive Win shares: 2.9>1.3 PG13 Defensive box +/-: 0.8>-0.2 PG13 Offense: Assists: 3.0>2.6 PG13 Offensive boards: 0.9>0.4 PG13 Offensive win shares: 3.6>2.9 PG13 Offensive box +/-: 2.5>2.1 PG13 We can still check the impact on team, right? PER: PG13 PIE: PG13 VORP: Still PG13 Box +/- : PG13 You can do your "October to December" calculation and see what your Klay Thompson still had ![]() The only thing Klay is apparently better is his team's offensive and defensive rating that Jordan Bell is toying the League with.. The guy say na ppg That's what coaches told you? Even if it were ppg solely and team record considered fairly, Dragic and Drummond wouldn't be scrubs to Lowry and Horford...Next time, you bring up a stat to support Warriors' Kris Middleton, ensure he's better there. Miss me with the 3rd scoring efficient option that plays for the best thing in the League, mate ![]() Sayonara... |
Eruditor:In this context, he is... If only 1 all star was needed this season James Harden will most likely be that guy (considering he is on course to winning the MVP). Therefore every other player (Curry included) is "not on his level".Precisely. If it were the fans who got him there, that would have been the talk. That the fans don't know basketball. Oya argue with the NBA coaches who voted Klay over PG.Argue with coaches? No be coaches select Sczerbiak No be coaches select Korver, Jeff Teague, Iguodala in 2012, Jameer Nelson and plenty others all cos of team record ooo. Hin say argue with coaches ![]() The fact is every member of GSW dropped drastically KD included (bone his scoring numbers). He was turning the ball over more than Curry. Shaun L and Iggy feel like we were scammed post season of last year with the contracts they got. Zaza has been as unathletic and clumsy. McCaw regressed badly and Klay was part of the whole fiasco. Only D West has justified his place on the team in the stretch of games in January leading into this month. So if all GSW players don't deserve to be on the All Star team because of January let the people campaigning continue.What's all this gibberish? How's that awa business on who's better between PG13 and Klay? ![]() Who makes stupid arguments like that? Or because Harden has made more 3s than Curry this season therefore Curry is not on his level in shooting 3points this season.How's this one too awa business? Please, sort the 3 point issue with Harden and Curry Russell has used triple double to win MVP. Now him and James are basically still doing the same things they did last season but all of a sudden, James with arguably the better roster now deserves it. Even when "better" roster was part of what disqualified him last season. We dey here na. Superfragelisticespialidocious PG abi. Ok.Na wa oooo We're arguing who's better this season. PG13 or Thompson ooooo Any small argument, you insert one salty, off topic comment. Today na WB as usual and James. Tomorrow, we'll start seeing Kylie Jenner |
VivaLaByke:Walton wants to start both, as it should be... |
SmooshCHN:Phew 2. If you were saying you'll bet OKC will beat the Warriors in a 7 game series, I hope you're swallowing your vomit seeing the Lakers beat this same OKC twice, the second time with a bench squad. Initial gra gra for regular season has little correlation with the post seaso.Warriors is still the team to beat... However, their threats still remain a healthy OKC and Rockets. Lakers trashing Thunder has no bearing in the playoffs. Lakers bested Rockets on the road, they've blown out your Warriors in previous seasons and still didn't make playoffs. Jazz that won't make playoffs trashed Warriors; Nuggets are 2-1 against Warriors this season, will you also say they're going to get the championship? The fact remains the teams likely to make it to the NBA Finals are Warriors, Rockets and Thunder in that order if healthy |
jagugu88li:I haven't eaten today and not only did you make this kain food, you posted it by 1am and worse still you mentioned me. You people wee not kill me on this thread. I'm leaving for you...

Wait ooo. I bin think say na joke but it's serious... Some people actually think Klay Thompson plays on Paul George's level just because he has "best record in NBA" award... Ha! Time to do like Devdansanguine/Ersan/other monikers and go for anger management class ![]() Jonga, I'm dead... ![]()

missterious:You single?

Roland17:IT needs to overcome this. From a Celtics hero to being traded after 15 games with Cavs, worse still to another bum coach. There's how low you can go and this was it. He gets his own team now and a chance to save himself come free agency... My only joy for the Lakers is Kuzma gets to not share bench glory again. Hopefully... Jazz on the other hand are letting Derrick Rose go. So, just Jae they get for Joe Johnson. Not sure what they're thinking Reports say Wade requested to be traded. Even Gabrielle Union's quick subtweet suggests that. I guess not all is rosy down at LeBron's WhatsApp group. |
