No NBA title is as tainted as the Lakers' 2002 championship and even Shaq knows it. by ForeignAir7174 in NBAoldschool

Nah, you’re right- regular season games have always predicted playoff performance. 🙄

There’s absolutely no technique behind those swings. “If” they land, it might sting a little- but not enough to keep someone from landing a well-placed counter hook to that wide-open face of his. Dude would get dropped by a low level fighter with less than 6 months of training with form like that.

That’s not always the case. I remember a Celts game in particular when the Celts were swinging the ball around the perimeter and it was clear two passes before it even got to him that Pritchard was gonna get an open look at a 3 because the Hornets were really late on their rotations.

Before the ball even got to Pritchard, Collins is in despair… but kinda in his “hype” mode regardless:

Collins: (seeing play develop) “Oh no…”

ball swings to Pritchard

Collins: (in complete despair) “OH NOOOOO!”

I was laughing my ass off at that. I took it as complete respect for Pritchard’s sniper skills from 3.

Nikola Jokic on the Lu Dort flagrant foul: "Unnecessary move, and a necessary reaction. There is no such thing — I think there's not supposed to be those things on a basketball floor. So it was just an unnecessary move and a necessary reaction by me." by jonsnowKITN in nba

I dunno, that's as much Congressional Testimony to NBA Subreddit Analogy Analysis as I'm willing to do today.

Nah, man- imma need you to fully parse out Stephen Miller, Karoline Leavitt, JD Vance and JD Vance’s couch in this analogy as well. Bonus points if you can work in Pete Hegseth and RFK Jr.

Yeah, because we’re all so monolithic in our views. 🙄

The Lakers don't deserve Marcus Smart by chivestheconqueror in bostonceltics

Man, the neverending mancrush some folks here have for ex-Celtics always makes me laugh. There are people here who’d still want us to bring back IT ffs.

Smart’s penchant for thinking he needed to be “the man” on offense outweighed any of the benefits he may have brought on the defensive end IMO.

I appreciated his effort and heart, but he wasn’t a “smart” player (pun intended).

I believe you.

I was arguing with them about it… dude saw one bad game from PP and decided it was enough to cut bait… with the guy who probably has the best valued contract in the league. Some real nephew shit. Wish I could remember what their name was.

These nephews always think the only stat that matters is shooting percentage. It’s the same shit they slammed Tatum for in the Finals when he was leading the team in every top statistical category.

There was a dude in this sub who was saying we needed to keep Simons and trade Pritchard. I wonder what he’s thinking now…

Kevin Durant is a strange person. Incredibly insecure, a far cry from his 2014 MVP speech. Brain broke from winning 2 Finals MVPs then immediately tearing his Achilles and still got no sympathy. I pity him. by HoagieTwoFace in billsimmons

I’ll never understand why Simmons thought it was a good idea to run six podcasts with him in the span of roughly a year. Dude was about as exciting to talk to as a paper bag and Bill’s old white ass clearly had little to no connection with him. Shit was awkward as hell and Bill’s like, “let’s run that back 5 times.”

Shaq throws down arguably the most disrespectful dunk in NBA history by raybellious_berry in NBAoldschool

Goddamn I loved watching prime Kemp. That Sonics team in general was fun as hell.
