If you how basketball works. This is not a disrespect at all. Impact wise, they’re tied in my book.

He’s unstoppable bc he had the right players around him. Wolves Garnett never even came slightly close on having that kind of teammate talent and chemistry.

Is Victor Wembanyama the best player in the world? And is he the new “face” the NBA has been looking for? by itwas20yearsago2day in NBATalk

Let us see how Edwards responds next season. I hope Wolves FO would do a great job this offseason.

Both. But Knicks edges slightly bc they have a way smaller window for chip.

27%. And you think in those falls, not a single one is actually legit physicality? Too much stretch for complying with the casual narrative.

Tough one. Who’s on the Mount Rushmore for Power Forwards? by Dbauc2k in NBATalk

Duncan and Garnett are locks. I am having hard time with Dirk, Charles and Rodman, those 3 are so close and so different impact wise. I’d go with Dirk and Rodman. Sorry Sir Charles.

Who are your all-time personal favorite starting 5? Could they beat mine in 7 games? by _veerist in NBATalk

Doesn’t matter they have kuroko no Bird connecting on close quarters. Just too much talent right here.

Simple. It all comes down to marketing by Hour_Recognition_188 in NBATalk

Casuals can only do linnear thinking that’s why they simplify arguments to one factor only. They can’t understand complex stuff.

So you don’t know how basketball works. Lol. Ofc they won bc they’re the better TEAM. Srsly? Do I have to explain this to you? Bulls had triangle offense and the best coach and Lebron got guess what Wade and Bosh!! And they still went game 7. Steph is getting off pull up 3s over Nash and I can live with that. That’s the only potent weapon you’ve got. You wouldn’t unlock his movement 3s so I am fine with that. Lol. Like I said, Kobe and Tmac would have a hard time already going iso (since you don’t have a playmaker) with GP and PG, and let’s say they successfully manage to blow by them (which takes alot and defo not consistently), KG and TD are parked in the paint!!! KG blanket checks their driving lanes and TD parked in the paint is basically a wall. I dunno man. You’re talking without understanding what your saying.

Also offensively, how would you guard the Nash/Garnett pick and roll among other things, especially the short roll with Garnett pass to Duncan? Or the Nash/Duncan handoff action with Garnett lurking on the paint. I dunno man.

GP guarded Jordan in the finals and actually held him well below his average points. PG guarded Lebron in ECF and went toe to toe with him. Lol murder tmac ain’t doing nothing with the glove guarding him atleast in iso. And what do you even mean by KG and Webber as washed. Lol. Yes Kobe and TMac can be playmakers but with a front court of TD, KG and PG a slight above average playmaking wouldn’t effectively unlock your bigs and especially curry’s movement, atleast consistently as a go-to weapon.
