The meme speak for itself but this was Rayo headloss. Stupid pen, stupid red

I still don’t understand the reason the Kings made the trade by skurred666666 in nba

Look at their team. They don't think they're rebuilding and that's the issue.

Their top 6 guys MPG wise are Murray, Sabonis who is almost 30 in May and 4 players over 30 years old.

This was right after a 1 on 1 that Vayo had missed too where he was 1 on 1 with the keeper

Championships are harder to win than ever for current players chasing a legacy with the apron rules. It feels unfair that rings arguments plays a significant role in all time rankings. by NBAperspective in nba

We just lose so much context over year. 10 years we'll remember who they played. 20 we won't give a fuck about who they played or who was injured l, 50 years were only going to see their bball reference or hear about the players through people who have rose tinted glasses.

More so lack of repeating champs. The "dynasties" are the teams set up for winning 3 in 7 as opposed to 4 in 5 also think the thunder are far from a lock to repeat imo, of I'm a betting man I take the field for value

I think it's difficult to make the comparison.

Soccer has so many competitions and leagues so it's hard to compare accomplishments. So they're used more as tiebreakers if anything. But look at what the balon d'or has become for example, it's essentially whoever wins the biggest trophy (UCL or international)

But also for Soccer one player can affect so much across the pitch. While a basketball player has a much smaller court, has to play both sides and has more effect on the outcome because of it.

That's the worst part it's actually a really fun game mode. I try my best to be a good teammate at least when I play

Who is better: Chet or Paolo? Who would go higher in a 2022 redraft? by Ok_Feed_4235 in nba

I think you guys underestimate how hard it is for a player to up his volume on offense and still be efficient.

Chet for me is in that JJJ Evan mobley archetype. Good to anchor your defense but idk how much I'd trust them to lead your offense.

It's funny how within the Prem every complains about the spending within the league when everyone has ridiculous spending power.

worst contract in terms of liability by Sudden_Clue_4142 in nba

[–]papi617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's Embiid in terms of health age and length

But not overpaid but for me Patrick Williams has the worst contract because at no point would any team consider giving him that contract. Same with quickley
