We're here dearly beloved for the funeral rites of Green Bay Packers and Aaron Fraudgers. It was a good run but all good things come to an end

22 actually.. IMHO, the Nets should hand the ball over to Ben to dictate plays. He has been out for a while and needs to build his confidence. He has been good over the last 2 games for the Nets against good opponents. He doesn’t have to do anything exceptional on offense, just score in the restricted zone.

At his best, he offers more that the Nets need than Kyrie offers with the ball. He is a better facilitator, he is not a liability on the defensive end, a very good defensive player/ rebounder and can guard the best player on the opposing team, 1-4. Also, that is a huge relief for KD on the defensive end.

If Ben can give the Nets 15PTS then the Nets can be better than many expect. The Slim Reaper will always be Slim Reaper, he can get his points whenever. Also, Vaughn needs to stop playing Harris and Mills at the same time, it makes them very vulnerable.

When will these teams learn any lesson?

You don’t give Mahomes any time on the clock!

Also, Kelcee has to be the GOAT TE..

Last season before the playoffs, I told warriors fans that Klay's peak has long passed and he should be traded. Y'all thought my take was hilarious. GO to twitter and see fans saying same

Na only sentiments still dey keep the guy for GSW

I will even prefer draymond stays rather than klay. Klay is easily replaced. Virtually the whole league shoots threes these days. It wouldn't be hard to find a 6'6+ 3 and D combo guard or forward/guard

But you see a defensive and assit juggernaut like draymond would be hard to find

I don talk my own

Look at this win against the Rockets for instance.
Warriors could have lost the game.
The first unit led by 12 at half time only for the bench to blow the lead in the second, down by 4 at the half.
Klay had 41 and Steph had 33 but the warriors only managed a 7 point win. They could have lost this one too.

We need vets willing t take a pay cut

Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 1:51am On Nov 22, 2022
Its late november, but there are some big name teams that look like they will miss playoffs this year already. Either that or they will have to go on a hot streak very soon
Re: The NBA Begins by Skrrrrrrr: 9:46am On Nov 22, 2022
Kerr rests the first unit. Warriors lose by 40.
Whew....

Im awaiting the booing this game. The only thing worse than celtics fans is philly fans. Lord keep Simmon's mind right!
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 4:35am On Nov 24, 2022
L. Doncic is such a dominant player on offense and a superstar, however, he has to learn how to play TEAM basketball and a little defense. The ball gets stuck and stagnates with him and it’s very easy to pick him out on defense. Man is also back to sulking and whining. For such a talented player, he has a lot to do.

This Kings team are not too shabby, they should make the playoffs or playin tournament. As for my Celtics, I like the balance and the fact that when we are not shooting 3 we are going for high percentage 2 points (inside the restricted zone).
We just need to continue with our improvement on defense and the road to the title may pass through TD Gardens.

Addition of Brogdon is a big difference maker. Everyone has better shot selection this year it seems. Or better yet is able to take easier shots. Having White, Brogdon and sometimes Smart to ball handle is a luxury

Hauser has also been a steal off the bench. And all this without Timelord

What are your thoughts about Doncic? Do you think his style of play can win you guys a championship? I think he needs to get better with playing team basketball, moving the ball and getting others involved.

Absolutely not. They don't have a shot without a bonafide star and Luka learning to play off the ball. This is his 5th season by his 9th season of running into a wall body go tell am
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:28pm On Nov 27, 2022
What’s the excuse today abeg? Playing in the worst division where a team with a losing record is on top.

For once, you tap dancer, have some shame! You are playing in a division with the Falcons/ Saints/ Panthers who all have losing records.

Come out you shameless one! angry

The team recorded 40 assists with Smart leading the way with 15. The Hornets are going to need Valium 5 to forget tonight.

Andrew Nembhardt warra dagger to the Lakers. Rick Carlisle lowkey doing a tidy job in Indiana

Haliburton arguably the best pure PG in the league right now.

The Pacers might be a decent team moving forward

They have no business winning games, they should be tanking for Wemby.

The Most Improved Player of the year this season is stacked.

Shai Gilgeous Alexander (SGA)

K. Johnson (Spurs)
S. Hauser (Celtics)
A. Simon (Blazers)
B. Bol (Magic)
T. Halliburton (Pacers)
T. Maxey (Sixers)

Everyone can't possibly tank for Wembanyama. Besides there's no guarantee he would have a Jordan or Lebron level impact. Think about it. Who's the last #1 pick that has been the best player on a championship team and when last were they drafted?

The improvement in his game from just last season is remarkable.

Even Prince Williams acknowledged greatness at the Garden tonight.. JT is getting knighted once Prince Williams ascends the throne..

Big shout out to Ajala for raising that question about Jerry Jones with the press during his press conference. They all wanted to cancel Kyrie and tried to label him anti-Semitic but have turned a blind eye or are choosing to trivialize what Jerry Jones did.

Well appreciated Ajala!
