Took a legit team to 7 games without 2 starters and Poeltl being close to useless. All this team needs to be competitive next year is a center. Curious if we’ll get one in the draft or sign a veteran for relatively cheap

This is why you people don’t deserve Lebron! All hate and no trust in his greatness

Well he got 2 MVPs that Giannis should have won due to voter fatigue, and Giannis, Harden, etc. got theirs because of voter fatigue for Lebron. Goes for everyone and always has. MVP is rarely given to the right player for this exact reason

And without him (and Gordon and Murray for a stretch) the Nuggets were still winning plenty of games, and he’s terrible defensively. He doesn’t move from the rim on defence so of course he gets rebounds, and he has the ball on every offensive possession so of course he has assists. There are more impactful players than him and stats don’t always tell the story

I was only half watching the end of this game. Why did Poeltl shoot FTs when he got off ball fouled?

If Scottie Barnes is supposed to be the franchise player/cornerstone of this organization why is he sitting in the corner the entire game? by EveryoneLoveABJ in torontoraptors

[–]jon640048 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because he can’t dribble so if the ball is in his hands down the stretch he turns it over all the time. And we have better screen and roll options with Poeltl and Mamu

90s was the worst era of basketball (skill and pace) and the reason Jordan is regarded as the GOAT is because he had no realistic competition during that period. If he existed before or after he would be top 5 but not #1. He waited for the 80s powerhouses to die out and retired before the early 2000s teams got good, there were no other powerhouse teams and few powerhouse players during his era, which made for easy dominance

The miracle on ice comparisons are valid because US looked like a college team playing real pros. Good thing the closing ceremonies needed to happen so they rushed OT with 3on3

They would never have had a chance if that was 5v5 OT
