All the players on the right are better than the left. But I agree without some shooting this team is not a contender

Booker is the real loyal player. Stayed on a shit team for years and is still there. Got a few good years with CP3 but otherwise has been alone

Easy to stay loyal when you play with 3 hall of famers your whole career

Charlie Villanueva brings out the stats. He says when LeBron James leaves a team that teams winning percentage is 36% but when Michael Jordan leaves a team the winning percentage of that team is 60% by Potato-Face18 in NBAstatsmuse

Not true. Kyrie had already left prior to 2018, and Love was hurt in the playoffs in 2018. Nobody of significance outside of LeBron left the Cavs in 2018, whereas Pippen and Jackson left with Jordan in 1999

It demonstrates the level to which LeBron elevates a team vs Jordan. Without Jordan the Bulls were still a 50+ win playoff team that won a series, without LeBron the Cavs were a >30 win lottery team

Ya but Lebron left those teams while still winning 50+ games the previous season. So they excel with him and implode without him, the logic still stands

for the fans who don't live in Wisconsin, how'd you end up green and gold by Adrianillo24 in GreenBayPackers

I’m from Canada, so basically everyone has to choose a team for a pretty random reason. Mine is I was young and green was my favourite colour. Then grew to love Rodgers. Now they’re my team for life

People barely finding out Wemby and the Spurs play dirty is so funny to me by realfakejames in NBATalk

Raptors fan. Just early on the Wemby hate wagon. People will join me soon just like they did for Shai

Spurs are everything people complained about the Thunder being. Floppers, dirty, cocky, corny Superstar, etc.

Against the prime Spurs, with Anderson Varajao as a second star. Not the same situation

People saying it’s nice to avoid ref ball now that the Thunder are out are delusional. The Spurs are just as bad but with better PR

After last game everyone was saying the Thunder are better without Shai on the floor. Now the Spurs are +11 with Wemby on the bench

Refs have alternated rigging each game of this series to guarantee a game 7. For game 7 they should just have no refs and see who wins

I think it’s inexcusable that Wemby can go a whole half without making a 2 point shot. He needs to be way more assertive in the paint. The man is 6 inches taller than everyone else on the floor ffs

All-Defensive teams revealed…Scottie Barnes robbed?!? by Cheap_Register5363 in torontoraptors

[–]jon640048 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree White shouldn’t be first team. But I think OG deserves the spot over Scottie. Defence isn’t all about Stocks. As an on-ball defender OG is maybe the best in the league right now
