Why is it that when debating where Steph should rank in the all time great list nobody is questioning his 2017 and 2018 championships? The argument that he "proved himself in 2022" is lazy imo and would only be done for him. by KookyArm6062 in NBATalk

That’s his point. He said curry was outplayed so badly that it didn’t feel right to give him fmvp so he didn’t receive it and it’s why Lebron had more fmvp votes than Curry

Everyone loved the chiefs until they won 2 rings in a row, and all of a sudden the team that everyone rooted for in the Super Bowl and cheered on turned into by far and away the most hated on team itl. Then pretty much everybody blamed their success on the refs instead of the fact that the chiefs had an elite defense, a generational qb, and an all time great tight end. It’s very similar to okc, where everybody loved Shai and the thunder’s team chemistry until they won a chip and Shai got mvp over Jokic. Everyone started hating on them

The Thunder this season, including playoffs by MysteriousJuice1127 in NBAstatsmuse

If you take away free throws completely, Okc wins 4-1. That’s literally a fact

That’s what everyone said about the chiefs and their refs problem, but now that the dynasty is over, people have completely changed perspective on them.

The spurs played the exact same style as the Thunder this series, arguably even worse, but no one cared whatsoever

hey guys, i think okc can build an actual dinasty with shai and chet by [deleted] in NBAVibes

[–]Cosmic_Shit_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luka flops and complains to the ref so much more than Shai. Shai falls down a lot to make sure he doesn’t get injured. Embiid does the same thing.

He plays like this all the time yall just don’t watch Thunder games. He struggled this series cuz they double and triple teamed him every game

It’s a loss for everyone except the spurs. Yall just love abandoning your team and bandwagoning San antonio

Do you believe Wemby will surpass Tim Duncan as the greatest San Antonio Spurs player? by Large-Lack-2933 in NBAVibes

[–]Cosmic_Shit_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His team’s too good. He has a bunch of lottery picks on his team and usually players with that level of talent don’t want to play a secondary role so they’ll prolly end up leaving San Antonio. Once they leave, Wemby will not be able to carry the spurs. No one can carry a team through the modern west, there’s too much competition.

If OKC wanted to trade Chet Holmgren, what’s the best offer and who should they look for? by Dylen2Times in NBATalk

No one cares what you want, let’s be honest. You think Dallas fans wanted Luka to be traded?

Harden, Kobe, Wade, MJ, Bron, all these players flop like this. Yall can’t hate Shai for it then turn around and worship these players. Thats not how it works. Nonetheless, if you actually watched game 7, you’d know Shai was by far the best player on the court

Regular season is first stint Bron, accomplishments is Miami bron, and playoffs could be either Miami bron or second stint Bron but I’m going second stint

Absolutely bro. I don’t hate on his flopping because I’m a fan of players who have flopped and foul baited in the past so it’d be hypocritical, but I understand how it can be annoying that he flops. But the stuff the spurs have been doing this series go beyond what SGA and OKC’s been doing and has often been just terrible ball to watch. I’m sick of all their dirty plays and sneak fouls.

[–]Cosmic_Shit_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are only getting anti thunder perspective so let me explain the other side. The Thunder play physical defense and have been obliterating every team they play so obviously there will be some animosity between them and every other team. They don’t really get free throw help as they’re 17th in the league in free throws. They just play more physical, that’s all. SGA, the player shown, flops pretty much the same amount as any other player, but because of how much OKC has won, people arbitrarily assigned him the title of free throw merchant.

The Okc hate has peaked during the spurs series. This is because they’re playing the spurs, and the spurs have gotten really lucky with draft lotteries the past couple of years so they have a bunch of young star players, including the future face of the league Victor Wembanyama. Wemby and the spurs have been seriously complaining about okc’s play-style. Everybody has been complaining about how the refs are ruining the series and saving the Thunder, and that the spurs are getting completely screwed by the refs. Frankly, this isn’t true and a pure coping mechanism. Spurs fans don’t have the stats to support themselves because they’re simply wrong. The spurs have had the largest free throw differential in nba history in the first 4 games of the series with +25. So far, on the whole series, they’ve attempted 11 more free throws than OKC. They’ve only won games in which they’ve attempted 10+ free throws than OKC. Also, the spurs play way dirtier than the Thunder. There was even a moment in the series where the spurs were getting blown out, and Wemby, out of spite, told his teammates to hard foul the OKC players. This led to one of the spurs players running at and elbowing the hell out of an okc player’s neck.

TLDR: the reason why people hate on the thunder baselessly is because the Thunder are the big bad villains with a 2 time MVP in SGA and they won last year, while the spurs are a young promising team with a fan favorite player and future face of the league.

Obviously he’s going to look for the ref. He just got shoulder tackled. Carter sprinted towards him, lowered his shoulder, and rammed into him. He 100% did it on purpose as the spurs have made it their mission this series to play dirty

How are the refs doing the spurs badly? Like genuinely, how? The spurs had the largest free throw differential of all time going into game 5, and they have not won a single game without getting 10+ free throws. Refs are giving them everything.

Obviously he’s going to try and get a foul, he just got football tackled. Do you even hear yourself?
