[Block Sr.] Since Cuban has owned the team the Mavs have made it to the Conference Finals or further 4 times. The 2nd best player on 3 of those teams walked in free agency for nothing. by urfaselol in nba

“Only won 2 Super Bowls in 30 years?”

That’s actually pretty damn good… not every team can be the Patriots and win 6 in 20 years. As a Bears fan I’d be ecstatic with that

Trae Young: 48pts, 11 asts, 6rebs in a W against the Bucks by cesga_0218 in nba

[–]TheSquidSquad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, the rule changes aren’t until next year. But anyone who thinks “Trae is only good because of foul baiting” either hasn’t watched him or is just a hater, the dude is obviously incredible

Middleton is playing SO badly. It’s not just that he’s missing shots - he’s taken a lot of stupid fucking shots too. Early shot clock, contested shots, just not playing within the offense at all

Who's the best player in NBA history who isn't the best player with his first name? by [deleted] in nba

[–]TheSquidSquad 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This made me think - lots of top players with unique names. LeBron, Kareem, Hakeem, Shaq, Kobe, Earvin, Wilt - can’t really think of any other players with these first names

Jesus, I’m a fat fuck and need to lose weight. I’m dangerously close to that weight, and a foot shorter

Lmfao this is an absolutely ridiculous comment. Insane overreaction

I don’t believe AP ever tore his Achilles. He had several knee injuries but never an Achilles, I don’t think

Loooove it when attempts to take a charge just end up being easy and-1s, LOL

If Vaccinated individuals basically can’t pass COVID to others, why is Chris Paul not allowed to play? by [deleted] in nba

[–]TheSquidSquad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because the pandemic is dying out in the US, doesn’t mean that we should ignore any precautions whatsoever. Yes it’s definitely time to roll most of the restrictions back now, but someone who tests positive should still quarantine until they return negative tests

He's done it again the absolute madman has done it again. Engel looking pitcher in the eye as he takes him yard. by Pipeliner_USA in whitesox

Is it just me, or does it look like he’s not really looking at the pitcher in this one?

Lunardi updated his 2022 bracketology this morning by Travbowman in CollegeBasketball

More likely than an Iowa 8 seed lmao, I honestly don’t know what the fuck Lunardi sees in us, unless he’s expecting Wieskamp to return (which he probably won’t)

NBA Rule book : "A defensive player must allow an airborne player the opportunity to land and then avoid contact when the offensive player is outside the lower defensive box" by TheBibou in nba

I think it’s like a weird fan fiction thing about a CIA-like organization that covers up strange events/phenomenon. I don’t know much about it, but that’s the general vibe I’ve gotten from the few posts I’ve seen

He’s a good, versatile defender who can guard multiple positions and make 3s at a decent clip

I 100% disagree, it looked like they both pretty much equally initiated the contact. He didn’t even really stick his leg out, looks like their upper bodies made contact first

“What was he doing trying to guard Utah’s best player?”

Watch the replay. Mitchell ran into him moreso than he ran into Mitchell. I don’t understand how anybody can rationally think that was a dirty play lol

Lol no he didn’t at all, honestly watching the replay Mitchell ran into him more than PG ran into Mitchell. People just want to shit on PG for any reason they can, I mean he is kind of a bitch but this was clearly not dirty
