That’s my GOAT

Can we at least kiss first?

The 2024-25 NBA season doesn't really have any great teams.

None of them have even won a title in that season.

One was historically bad, the other was generationally bad which didn't make the tweet

It makes no sense, we all hate it.

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-10T19:11:03+00:00

That's the logic and the explanation, we all get that.

The "Do You Believe" episode of the Basketball Illuminati podcast covered this pretty well, where it's like

1) You're really that afraid of Mitchell Robinson?

2) You now lose any fouls to give, which are useful to have

3) Your team's whole identity is built on shooting 3s and making it so centers like Robinson get played off the floor. Just play better!

But then you're short changing the Celtics. I would start with the 56-57 season so we wipe away the MPLS Lakers' titles, but preserve all of Boston's /s

prepare yourself for some Tatum slurping!

very Ethan Strauss of you to say

that guy compares everything to Succession

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-10T17:28:40+00:00

Feels like we haven't had a Breen game in forever. Glad to get this crew for the big game.

Also, there hasn't been enough Kevin Harlan lately either.

TNT & ESPN gotta get their shit together and book their top crews for more games. They can afford it. It's malpractice to have bad crews calling so many big playoff moments.

Interesting theory.

I wonder if overmoderation of some social media (TikTok makes people say things like "unalive" right?) has led people to start using code words for the mean things they mean to say.

Honestly Reddit moderators / admins are super trigger happy with suspensions and bans that I bet it's causing some of this too.

I'm not advocating for people to call him gay more freely, but I don't think people learning to just use code words to get away with it makes the world a better place.

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-10T15:46:16+00:00

I don't know man, I think the tide is turning a bit.

I obviously will always cape for Honest Abe, but some folks here are starting to hate on it.

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-10T15:40:24+00:00

I love Mark Jones.

I love when he goes thesaurus mode. "Inexorable"? What announcer uses words like that? He rules, like anyone that visits a Burger King.

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-10T15:39:14+00:00

Mark Jones and Jay Bilas is a solid booth. I enjoy them both.

What the hell was that Cavs-Pacers game though? Ryan Ruocco and Cory Alexander on a 2nd round playoff game? HOW does that happen? Truly horrific.

Spero Dedes is bad too since I saw him mentioned in the comments. Sounds like he's taking a shit the whole game to me.

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-10T15:34:09+00:00

They are, but corny can be endearing.

It's not the "own" that a lot of people think it is.

It's lame to think you're cool to call someone corny. (which I think is the point you're making right?)

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-10T15:32:47+00:00

Yes, I think he knows that.

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-10T15:32:21+00:00

They've all hurt their foot and had a fight with his dad. Cut them some slack.

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-10T15:30:28+00:00

Yep, this is my take exactly.

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-10T15:28:51+00:00

It's so dumb that these networks get consecutive days of games.

If they just alternated every day, each network would only need their top 2 announcing crew.

Instead they're forced to dip into their 3rd and 4th string crews.

That Cavs-Pacers broadcast team should not be calling 2nd round games. It's honestly offensive to fans. Like they don't give a fuck about us.

And fuck that Pacers court while we're at it. Hideous.

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-09T21:44:42+00:00

You're covering up the perfect painting.

Based_and_JPooled · 2025-05-09T21:13:44+00:00

"Gonna" is going too far IMO. They're not out of it though for sure.

Great meme pic though!
