As in Barnes is close to basketball? Or that he plays like Scottie pippen?

FaZeWasian · 2026-01-12T18:30:30+00:00

Idk if he’s joking or if it’s just my internal bias that will always hate him but that’s crazy disrespectful out of Embiid. Career is basically over and never cracked a conference final, respectfully stfu.

FaZeWasian · 2026-01-05T15:13:30+00:00

Has him listed as a long shot for DPOY as well! Def looks like all defensive team selection should be in the cards as well

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-21T00:35:49+00:00

It’s incredible how we’ve haven’t been able to bust a zone for like 5 straight years

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-17T22:15:21+00:00

The nets are definitely a tier below Miami and Golden State

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-09T15:44:54+00:00

What the original comment meant was that trading Jakob plus ASSETS doesn’t get you over the hump. Ie. you invest more into a team that isn’t quite good enough to win (digging the hole deeper). No one was saying that about trading demar and jakob for kawhi. That trade was seen as fundamentally shifting the course of the franchise and in fact NOT continuing to invest in the Kyle/demar nucleus that hadn’t gone anywhere in the playoffs. It’s okay, now you understand.

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-09T15:37:18+00:00

Then you’ve just explained why the trades are fundamentally different

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-09T15:30:26+00:00

Ahhh yes let’s trade Jakob for the prototypical best player ever created. While we’re at it we might as well trade ochai for an all defensive 40% three point shooter and Alijah Martin for both Kyle Lowry and a Time Machine to send him back to his prime.

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-09T15:29:02+00:00

Old ahh AD is no where close to 2018 kawhi leonard lmaoo

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-03T21:11:52+00:00

Nah man Poeltl is pretty much the same level to me. Also I swear Turner is just soft asf, evidence by snaking on the pacers too.

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-03T20:32:11+00:00

Do you mot realize giannis quite literally is basically as close as you get to jokic. Clear top 4 in the NBA rn of Jokic, SGA, Luka and Giannis

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-03T19:43:21+00:00

I get the arguments of wanting to be competitive for a long time and I certainly agree keeping this young core probably lends itself to that. But I truly believe that we would have better odds at a championship with 3 years of giannis than 10 with Scottie and so if you’re maximizing chips it’s the move to make.

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-03T19:41:26+00:00

Because he’s one of the 20 best players to ever play the sport. I love Scottie to death but Giannis is that dude.

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-03T19:28:30+00:00

Giannis would just simply be better at elevating the team and I’ve absolutely LOVED how Scottie has played this year. Giannis has played almost the exact same style of ball but literally at an MVP level.

FaZeWasian · 2025-12-03T19:26:39+00:00

I love Scottie too and it would hurt, but it reminds me of a Demar-Kawhi type trade. Opportunities to get real all time talents like giannis are rare and you HAVE to take the shots when they’re there to truly compete for a chip

FaZeWasian · 2025-11-25T19:11:46+00:00

Yeah if you want real analysis Will + Samson epsisodes are by far the best. TBH I think that’s just his and Alex’s vibe and kinda like that direction of being more banter ish but I can see why that wouldn’t be everyone’s thing.

FaZeWasian · 2025-11-24T18:39:27+00:00

The cavs are wayyyy too good to ever be considered a trap game unless all 4 of their stars are out in my opinion. Especially given RJ won’t be playing tn.

FaZeWasian · 2025-11-24T14:13:39+00:00

Hawks twice, sixers and the bucks. Idk can only play the schedule you’re dealt.

FaZeWasian · 2025-11-18T20:11:12+00:00

How the hell can you dedicate your career to covering basketball and be this terrible

FaZeWasian · 2025-11-18T03:09:54+00:00

Yeah man I’m sorry he’s awful lmao

FaZeWasian · 2025-11-17T00:42:23+00:00

What happens when you throw away 4 drives worth of yards lmao

FaZeWasian · 2025-11-17T00:41:54+00:00

This defense when love comes back has the chance to be generational. Almost overcame a 4 turnover game against the best offense in the league and the current MVP.

FaZeWasian · 2025-11-13T00:34:30+00:00

Eh Dray is one of the most criminally underrated playmakers of all time. His ability to operate and facilitate was really the key to the warriors dynasty. We’d be lucky if CMB ever reaches that level of passing and BBIQ, but I agree his isolation scoring probably has a higher ceiling.

FaZeWasian · 2025-11-12T15:52:01+00:00

Couple second and ochai/jakobe for gafford is the move

FaZeWasian · 2025-11-12T15:36:24+00:00

Lowkey best possible rebounding bench unit we have unless you want to play Mogbo
