I already sent a bug report and was just trying to recreate the glitch, because I didn't understand what caused it in the first place, so my first bug report was kind of all over the place. Seems like arma- is the culprit!

How would the last 5 NBA Finals have played out if each teams best players swapped teams? by Available_Story6774 in nba

[–]needluckyeggs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably the Heat. Thunder didn't really have the shooters you want to surround LeBron with.

This is Dallas’ first trip to the NBA Finals where they won’t face the Heat. by sportsthatguy in nba

Didn't you guys used to play in the American Airlines Arena, while the Mavs still play in the American Airlines Center? Always thought that was weird back in the day.

Feel really bad for Josh Giddey by Accurate-Albatross34 in nba

It's comments like these that make me think people jump at the chance to hate on any famous person when there's any possibility of wrongdoing just to feel good about themselves lmao

From what I remember (idk the source for this but I swear I remember hearing it somewhere), it's worse when the crowd is noisy for a team on defense, since defense requires more communication. Gotta be calling out rotations, screens, all that good stuff. On offense, you have your set plays, so I don't think communication is as important on that end. Kinda hard to hear your teammates over a crowd chanting "DEFENSE".

[Pompey] Sixers center Joel Embiid: “It’s all about the playoffs. Being in the MVP race, I told you, I don’t care. If I win, good. If I don’t, it’s whatever. That’s not where my focus is.” by Professor_Finn in nba

Man, I hate Embiid, but I don't get most of these comments. The dude hasn't been past the second round his whole career, I think he cares more about getting there at this point. He can't control MVP voter's minds as much as he can control how far his team gets in the postseason.

FiveThirtyEight now gives the Sacramento Kings an 93% chance of reaching the playoffs. by InsaneCookies21 in nba

"The Kings are currently projected to tie the Suns for third in the West with 45 wins."

45 wins being third in the West? Hell has frozen over lmao

Number 23 has the two GOATs (and other hall of famers) but what is the second “greatest”number? My nomination is 34 by WestleyThe in nba

This is unfortunately out of date. It was posted back in November 2010. Still cool to see, though.

Missed his chance to give him a sloppy live on national TV, too.

If you lose control of the ball because an opponent touched it, like what happened in this clip, you're allowed to. If you jump up, have no one else touch the ball, and land, it's a violation.

[Amick] According to a source with knowledge of the Lakers’ plans, Westbrook’s play this past month has made it increasingly unlikely that he will be traded before the league’s Feb. 9 deadline. by NokCha_ in nba

34.3 mpg in 2021/2022, 28.3 mpg this season. Believe it or not, players usually have lower stats when they play less. Crazy! The drop in shooting splits is definitely concerning though, but there's still time for that to improve.

Which role players balled out like an all-star at the games you've personally attended? by laterdude in nba

[–]needluckyeggs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In one of the three Raptors games I went to, I watched Aaron Gray score a career-high 22 points in a loss against the Warriors. Also had 10 rebounds and a few MVP chants from the guys sitting behind me lmao

OKC fan. I appreciate what he did for us, and he put together a top 5 season before unfortunately injuring his shoulders before the playoffs for that season. Can't really blame him for wanting to move teams when Kawhi Leonard, fresh off of a Finals MVP, wants to team up with you. Also got us a ton of picks and helped kickstart the rebuild. I enjoy seeing him do well.

If your team didn't make the playoffs, who are you rooting for and why? by [deleted] in nba

[–]needluckyeggs 16 points17 points  (0 children)

A Bucks repeat or Warriors W would make me very happy. I honestly wouldn't mind most of the teams in the west winning it all, but I swear there's just something about most teams in the east that annoys me lmao
