Congratulations to the 2020/2021 NBA champions, the Brooklyn Nets. This is their year. With both LeBron and AD out injured and unlikely to be 100% in the playoffs, and the Nets having Justice League for a team, nothing in the world can stop them.

Congrats KD, you did it again wink

The Warriors floor was so dirty that we had to use them to clean the floor grin

That's two blowouts against them this season. Should have been three sad

The Warriors bench shouldn't have laughed at Kuzma after he airballed that free throw. Now look what he doing right in front of them grin

Bradley Beal 37 points and the win against Portland. It's almost as if this guy can score 30 in his sleep. The Wizards are slowly racking up those wins. 10-17 now. In the east anything can happen grin

Man, it's like I'll start taking the Suns seriously o cheesy There's something CP3 always brings to a team, instant elevation, even at 35. But unfortunately his teams fall short when it matters most because they're not good enough to compete with the best. We go dey use one eye dey watch these Suns sha.

Warriors fans always get emotional whenever you say someone's better than their players grin

Scary Terry for the win.

Its obvious you a casual, only a casual would compare klay and Beal and also go on to say Beal is the better player cos he's dropping more points.
For starters Beal is the No 1 scoring option on the team, John Wall was always injured, Beal was the primary scorer, primary ball handler on the team hence the stats you seeing. This season Westbrook is primarily the second scoring option on the team, but facilitates when he plays wait its just like comparing steph and Westbrook.
This is like saying Klay can be compared to Harden (when he was in Houston) because Harden is the number one scoring option and Klay is not. That's not a very bright argument. That Beal is a number one scoring option and Klay isn't should be a plus to Beal. Can Klay be a number one scoring option and primary ball handler on any team?

And only a casual would say that Klay is a better player just because he's a better shooter. That was how they fooled us into thinking that Steph was better than LeBron because he could shoot the lights out. It only took one more playoff series for them to realize that it takes more than just shooting the lights out to be called the best.

SportsRe: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 3:12pm On Feb 20, 2021
This obstinate tendency for people to defend the players they love is something else. A player is on course to be scoring champion and here we have people saying Klay is better.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 3:09pm On Feb 20, 2021
joshboo:
What metric are you judging on? Klay is a better shooter,klay is a better defender, klay is Championship material. Not taking anything away from him He's balling hard this season but can he replicate come the playoffs?
Lol. This excuse you people always bring is getting boring. Did Klay carry his team to win the championships? Wasn't he a 2nd and 3rd option on those championship teams?

The best playoffs run Klay has had was in 2016 when he averaged 24 points. Other than that he's always averaged 20 or below. Beal has had 3 playoff runs where he averaged 23 or more. Klay averages 19.3 ppg on 123 playoff games, Beal averages 22.7 on 40 playoff games. Bear in mind that Beal has never been on the kind of teams that Klay has all his career.

Klay is a better shooter but Beal is a better scorer. Beal is also a better rebounder and a better facilitator. You can say Klay is a better defender but Beal has always averaged more steals than Klay, both in the regular reason and in the playoffs.

The man is averaging almost 33, 5 and 5 this season and we're still here comparing Klay to him. Omo, una stubborn o grin

Hardcore baller I actually pitied the guy when he tied the game with 2 seconds remaining against the Washington wizards His 3 points shot helped erased an 11 point lead with I think 4 mins to go but that jumpy green committed a stupid foul (his second in 1min) to give the wizards the game Just 2 seconds left
He's been balling of late. He's too good to be averaging 18
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 6:30am On Feb 20, 2021
Jamal Murray: 50 points from 25 shots, zero free throws. That has to be the most efficient 50-point game in the history of the NBA.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 4:05am On Feb 20, 2021
Teams better bring out their artillery to stop Joel Embiid in the playoffs. It's just a matter of health. If he's healthy then nobody's stopping him.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 9:03pm On Feb 19, 2021
Bradley Beal finally getting the respect he deserves. Some people here told me Klay Thompson was better than him. It's amazing how we always mistake good shooting for good all-round player. It's just like comparing KD to LeBron. We know KD can shoot lights out, but he'll never be a better player than LeBron in this league.

Now all Beal needs is to go team up with a legit superstar to get a shot at the championship.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 7:24am On Feb 16, 2021
Julius Randle is quietly becoming an all-round type of player sort of like LeBron is. Can score at the rim, shoot the 3, pass the ball, rebound, defend multiple positions, post up, and is an above par ball handler. Man can legit be a 2nd option on a championship team.

Nobody is arguing that LBJ is not greater than KD, that is fact. But your man said LBJ is a better defender and a better clutch shooter grin grin grin grin You saw nothing wrong in that one
Do we need to bring out their clutch numbers for you again? Where were you when I was splattering those numbers all over this thread?
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 10:03pm On Feb 15, 2021
KNIGHTBlaed:
Say what??
KD is a better defender, better shooter, and he does everything else better than LBJ, apart from maybe making wrong decisions career wise. That one na fact. The only mistake KD made was not doing what your LBJ did earlier in his career. He decided to stick with Westbrook for most of his early career, we can see who Westbrick is now. So for the fact that the man wasted the better part of his early years being loyal, does not mean he is not better than LBJ naturally. Now, LBJ is a Legend and a hard worker and remains one of the best to ever play the game (10 years from now and he will be out of the GOAT conversation, so let's enjoy your man while he is still playing), I am not disputing that fact, but if your man spent more early years with the Cavs, we will not be having this conversation. That's KD's mistake there.
E say KD is a better defender. Lol. Enough said

They are. Even in the US they are famous. I'm any case restricted to the US the list is not impossible.
You're saying Messi is more popular than Aaron Rogers in the US? It's possible that some Americans know the name Messi, but can they recognize him if they see him on the street?

It depends. Did he say in the world ? Maybe it's in the US. If the latter is true he can be justified (then*)
If it's in the US then Ronaldo and Messi shouldn't be that famous

He's a clown some brought up Instagram followers of some random football players even Gabriel Jesus had more followers than Tom Brady.

Because of the international market of the NBA, even NBA players are far more popular and influential than NFL players.
The superbowl final would do a 120 million views but a random Liverpool vs Man utd league game will do 700 million.

Exactly. NFL players are just popular in America. Even Serena Williams is more popular than Brady.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 10:20pm On Feb 11, 2021
So Colin Cowherd had the effrontery to put this up on the internet back in 2018. Lol. Americans really think the world begins and ends with them. If he doesn't know that Ronaldo and Messi should be number 1 and 2 then he should pay more attention to sports outside America. Brady and Rogers are nice guys, but they wouldn't even be in the top 50.

Rob Parker compared Tom Brady to Robert Horry. And some people here rate this guy. Enough said.

Rob Parker on Tom Brady: Just because you've won a lot of championships doesn't make you the GOAT.

Rob Parker on MJ: The man won 6 championships, he's the GOAT.
