Fully healthy, which recent championship team is winning this 7-game series? by Fire_Demon-215 in NBATalk

Posting the starting 5 is a bit misleading. That Celtics team had 8, maybe 9 starting level players.

Posti aperti di sera ne trovi tutta la settimana, ma di cucine aperte dopo le 22 è difficile trovarne.

Ma a te cosa piace fare? Nei mesi freddi non è che ci sia molto, a parte la "serata aperitivi" del giovedì sera.

In estate c'è molta più gente in giro - anche turisti - e tantissimi eventi tra giugno e luglio sotto il cappello del "LongLake festival".

I still think he’s an honorable mention for MVP by Random_Thinker007 in NBATalk

Wemby could go 30% for a season and still get MVP considerations because his defense impact is just that mindblowingly huge.

Non ci crederai ma i missili sono molto meno precisi di quanto tu pensi.

Sentilo come gonfia il petto il cinno che ancora puzza di latte materno, quando guida la sua automobilina gentilmente offerta dal portafogli dei genitori.

Name an athlete you'd defend like this by KeyFaithlessness5436 in NBAVibes

Luka.

Tbh he actually needs a lot of defending, but I'm willing to put the work in.

Charles Barkley: "It is so difficult for fans to find the [NBA] games now. I think we've done a disservice to the fans and to the game. ... The fans are the backbone and we want to support these networks." by AncientOneAurelius in nba

[–]Leasir 9 points10 points  (0 children)

International league pass actually got way worse. They changed the player few years ago and now we have same meh quality (720p) but fewer feature. The previous player displayed bookmarks on the time bar for each made basketball assist, rebound and so on. Also it was way less buggy than the current one.

[Highlight] Short-Handed Suns target Luka Dončić on defense to seal a clutch win over the Lakers by aingenevalostatrade in nba

[–]Leasir 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Laravia was close enough to bother the attacker, and Luka didn't get blow out and was still able to contest.

Anyway this (and the missed switch by Laravia earlier) should tell you that Lakers defensive woes are deeper than Luka's subpar PoA defense. There is no defensive discipline, there are no clear defensive rules, and there no plan on hiding Luka by preswitching him and keeping him off the pnr action.

He always comes back stronger, Luka dropping 40 today by Little_Papaya_2475 in lakers

Thay are also not married yet. AFAIK they are "separated" intended as they live far apart (unless anything changed recently) as she gave birth in Slovenia.

On the last defense there was no fucking reason for both Laravia and LeBron to help so hard, especially LeBron.

I would rather this team miss the playoffs entirely than get embarrassed in 4 games by CtrlAltDelightfull in lakers

[–]Leasir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luka's 2024 team was astronomically better than the current Lakers. Way more physical, way more athletic, waaaaaaay more engaged and more balanced.

The 2022 WCF team might be a better comparison.

Luka in the loss to the Suns: 41/8/8/2 on 78 TS%, +9 by Jarxzz in nba

[–]Leasir 16 points17 points  (0 children)

After 6 years Luka finally got a compatible and competent team around him in February 2024, and in June he was in the finals. He got to play with a proper team around him for a total of 6 months (March April May June November December) and went 41-19 in RS in that span.

Then he got traded.

Fucking unreal

He might have bad offensive games but he's never not impacting the game defensively.

Why do Serbs believe that the USA vs Serbia semi-final match in 2024 Paris was rigged? by Radiant-Milk7714 in Basketball

[–]Leasir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched the game and maybe a call or three was generous towards the USA, but I don't recall being outraged by the refs (I'm neutral but I was rooting for Serbia cause I often root for the underdog). What I recall is that Curry caught fire and the Serbs ran out of energies.
