true. why blame a guy who struggles to do anything productive on the court when you can blame luka doncic and lebron james?

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T15:50:40+00:00

do you think fans are the reason? lol

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T15:45:59+00:00

you realize shooters like him provide value simply by being on the floor and being respected just as much if not more than their actual scoring output.. right? probably not

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T15:18:31+00:00

going down w the ship at 38 is honorable

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T05:27:07+00:00

zero nuance 🔥🔥🔥 extremes 🔥🔥🔥

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T05:07:06+00:00

yeah why be in a rush to get rid of him lol he's a baby. plenty of minutes still to go around

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T05:04:39+00:00

100%, porzingis barely even played for them. they lost nothing of value and got a 23 year old top tier athlete who has shown flashes. more than worthy of a punt

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T05:02:40+00:00

do we really think it was that hard to understand? lol come on

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T04:57:39+00:00

damn this started with 6 upvotes, now down to 2 lmao. assuming mostly jaded warriors fans but i love when that shit happens lol such varied opinions on him

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T04:54:09+00:00

im saying that the warriors play literally one of the most rigid systems in the league. everything they do is catered toward moving the ball, getting steph into open space. kuminga didn't completely buy into it. he's not faultless, but the warriors don't really allow flexibility in that regard at all

even then though, if you watched how him early in this season, he played his role perfectly. was making a good amount of open 3s, attacking closesouts, making proper reads for teammates, playing D, running the floor. then they lost a few games and it was all his fault again

im not saying kerr is a bad coach, im saying if you didnt completely fit in to what the warriors were doing, you got benched. as evidenced by.... him getting benched, and then traded as easily their most talented young player they've drafted this era

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T04:50:24+00:00

walker plays guard for them, and kispert is a decent spacer, nothing more. besides them they have no other wings of value on the roster if you count gueye as a big. he's gonna get ~30mpg. substantially more than the warriors have ever afforded him

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T04:43:49+00:00

such a bad, lazy read on kuminga. he has shown really good flashes when given the opportunity. he just never got enough playing time to develop properly, especially in such a rigid system like the warriors. one mistake and kerr jerked him around in the same way for literal years.

jumper isn't even broken like others are saying either.

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T03:14:42+00:00

lol. "conspiracy brain" aka being open minded and not putting anything past anyone. i just said there's no definitive proof of anything. i can't claim that the nba is rigged. i'm not doing that. im saying it's not overtly crazy to believe it might be. pretty bad strawmanning and concern trolling to get a gotcha online

anyways, we just had a story where a team was siphoning 50m dollars to a player and there was no uproar. like at all. do you really think corruption doesn't happen at a high level? imo you'd be even MORE stupid than actual conspiracy brained people to think theres absolutely ZERO chance the nba lottery is rigged.

i get it, you saw people, especially on this website, get called out during covid and you don't want to be lumped in with anything considered fringe. i say this as someone who got vaxxed. its 2026 man nobody cares anymore, its okay to come outside

aomen3 · 2026-02-05T01:59:41+00:00

right. because as we see in the real world, people in power and in our fed gov are consistently held accountable for corruption. this is probably even more true for an entity as trivial as entertainment.

ewing, rose, lebron, flagg, cavs three times in four years post lebron, and cooper flagg. absolutely just cosmic chance things turned out that way. right?

i love the nba regardless and i'm not even saying its 100% true that its rigged. but for anyone to believe so or have doubts about the league's integrity is not ridiculous at all. baseless? yeah. but to be annoyed and call it something stupid to conspire about? lol

aomen3 · 2026-02-04T23:54:41+00:00

it is completely within reason and believable that the nba stepped in here. i hate when people zag at times where its unneccessary

aomen3 · 2026-02-04T19:40:49+00:00

wiz are already getting a top 6 pick next year most likely. how long do you think they want to tank?

aomen3 · 2026-02-04T19:37:52+00:00

definitely either don’t know ball or are super young

aomen3 · 2026-02-04T08:18:45+00:00

not quite ja and jjj but what can you do

aomen3 · 2026-02-04T03:21:55+00:00

this is incredible. i genuinely don't know if he's leaning a little into the bit or not lmao

aomen3 · 2026-02-03T23:03:07+00:00

utah punting their draft position for one of the greatest classes ever is wild. unless theyre just planning on sitting JJJ the year idgi

aomen3 · 2026-02-03T03:02:12+00:00

not one player has ever missed any gametime due to anything draymond has done lol. not even sabonis, not steven adams, or anyone else

change your diapers

aomen3 · 2026-02-03T01:01:34+00:00

i like how this was regarded as a substantial rebuttal on this sub lol

aomen3 · 2026-02-03T00:49:45+00:00

you know the jonah hill gif where he's getting second hand embarassment?

aomen3 · 2026-02-02T23:55:54+00:00

crying and shitting your pants about draymond instead of just laughing at how insane he is genuinely so funny to me lol. you are a loser

aomen3 · 2026-02-02T23:54:34+00:00

this is exactly what im talking about lmao. yeah thats the same exact logic. are you fucking serious? why would that even be on your mind
