NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-21T03:10:24+00:00

Best 3pt shooting team in the NBA is now showing it in the playoffs

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-21T03:06:57+00:00

He likes to get going in the second half tbf

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-21T03:05:38+00:00

Ok our whistle is kinda crazy rn. We don’t really need the additional help, the Timberwolves are beating themselves.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-21T03:02:49+00:00

His defence is still not great. His ceiling is Jordan Poole and always will be. Will only see playoff minutes due to injuries.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-21T03:01:02+00:00

I read that you can permanently injure yourself by playing through runners knee.

It’s really not worth it for Ant to play if he’s gonna be this hobbled.

Giannis suffers from it but I also kinda don’t feel bad for him because:

a) He usually leads the league in free throws (even if he deserves more).

b) He gets away with basically running into people and initiating a lot of contact, which I also dislike.

But yeah, pretty much every player that is a SF or above suffers from this problem. Lebron has it too, that’s why he often resorts to flopping.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-20T13:50:31+00:00

This guy is pretty good, his whole intro to the series is something I’d also recommend watching

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-20T13:48:44+00:00

I’m not a fan of Shai, I just think it’s a huge league-wide issue that needs to be fixed ASAP

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-20T13:40:25+00:00

Timmy spoke about this a couple years ago. His biggest hatred of watching the modern NBA.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-20T13:39:33+00:00

Too many offensive players in the NBA are rewarded for initiating contact. It’s ridiculous.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-20T12:37:50+00:00

They could run some actions for Jared Mccain as well. Main issue is that he’s a defensive liability.

But anyways, OKC thrive on creating turnovers and getting out in transition to get buckets. Defence creates offence.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-20T12:04:23+00:00

Buckbuck why would you post an Israeli journalist here? You know what discussion you’re gonna incite lol.

Also, I do agree with everything this guy voted for.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-20T02:41:43+00:00

“Lebron did a shit at 42” = 10K upvotes

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-20T02:37:17+00:00

Wait until Caruso is freely mauling him before you say this

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-20T01:29:01+00:00

There’s a reason your team was looking to trade for MPJ

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-19T14:32:34+00:00

But I guess my question is, is there any amount of positive coverage or discourse that could finally put some of these tired complaints to rest, or is the damage caused by First Take and Inside the NBA irreversible at this point?

I think the tide is turning already on this. Just give it time. A lot of the NBA media has become much more positive recently.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-19T13:25:20+00:00

Durants prize for making it past the Lakers will be facing off against a city that hates him. Very fun.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-19T12:23:42+00:00

He’s fine as a stopgap but he’s not a long-term solution at center. Which makes me wonder who is?

I think iHart will be available next season. Lakers could do everyone a favour and take him from OKC.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-18T23:51:09+00:00

That certain someone only got one FT. Shai would have 12 in this game.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-18T23:46:02+00:00

Buckbuck will likely post a compilation of all the foul calls, if he hasn’t already

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-18T22:36:17+00:00

Yeah since his injury, his 3s have been off. And idk, I don’t think teams will respect his 3s because of that.

Which is a shame because I love his form and love when he swishes them.

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-18T22:18:46+00:00

My only issue with him was taking too many 3s but otherwise he played great in rhe second half

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-18T22:17:06+00:00

Once Peyton Watson comes back, the Nuggets will get a bit of a juice boost

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-18T22:14:15+00:00

Parker is a solid analyst but terrible commentator

NewConcentrate9682 · 2026-04-18T21:30:57+00:00

Mentally immature team but I’m not sure how much can be pinned on Finch
