2015 - 2016 NBA Thread - NBA where amazing happens - all rookie team named!!!

Yeah but when you have days like this you don't try and shoot your way out of the bullshit you start attacking the rim. You will never shoot your way out of it. You start attackign the basket and you start to see the basket open up some.

they were going to the rim and missing wide open layups too. that's why I'm not even mad at it. curry missed like 5 layups so did klay. green was broke from inside as well. they weren't even jacking 3's all crazy like

Naw no they weren't. They missed like 3 layups. Steph was throwing up that bullshit. Klay was like driving to the rack and settling for a mid range jumper. Draymon was trying. They got intimidated by....Hibbert, Bass and Randle. IT is what it is. Lakers played them games of their lives.
 
In a strange off beat way, I think this game exemplifies how great the Warriors are playing this season... Because most people seem to be under the impression that all the elite teams have to do is show up and write in the wins vs the lesser teams..
This game shows how mentally tough the Warriors are all the other games they won And by comparing how they usually play by this rare game when they were not focused and dialed in it sort of put things in perspective how mentally sharp they have to be to win those many games, even vs the lesser teams, they are supposed to beat...
Bottom line is the NBA is so competitive that even the best teams could lose if they are not on point and mentally prepared.. This goes to show how mentally tuned in the Warriors have been all year..



That shit wasnt ground breaking nor did it reveal anything. Damn near every top team in the NBA has "played down" to teams that had sucky records. Hell, my Bulls were notorious for doing that shit back when Tom Tibby had us on point. We balled hard vs LBJ, Wade & Bosh....but then we'd get blown out by almost 30 vs the Bobcats. Poor match ups...poor game play.....It happens a lot....but it doesnt validate anything.

The Warriors attempting 30 three pointers and not hitting more than 5 shows u how competitive the league is?????????? Ninja Stop it!!! You reaching too much...

see nah now you going too far lol. they weren't intimidated. half their buckets came off of plays and back cuts right to the rim as well as them taking it to the rim as well lol.
they don't shoot midrange jumpers only the reserves do.
steph and klay had wide open 3's several of them that are usually money and they missed em. not no crazy ass behind the back shit. just spot up and shoot one's off of passes and long rebounds.
just bricks
 
Yep both looking good

Greek Freak as well

Remember he was only 18 when drafted

Cuban told Donnie no :smh:

Can't even put that on Donnie

Every time I see Giannis get a triple double I just read that article about how Donnie wanted him and betted his career on him being good. :lol:



"Owner Mark Cuban admitted to the Dallas Morning News that at the 2013 NBA Draft, GM Donnie Nelson wanted to draft Giannis Antetokounmpo, the now-famous "Greek Freak" with unlimited potential. Cuban said no:

"[Giannis Antetokounmpo is] making us look bad for sticking to our plan. That was Donnie. That (taking Antetokounmpo) is what Donnie wanted to do and I said we should stick to the plan. The whole point was that I wanted to stick to the plan and Donnie was like, this guy’s going to be good. I’ll risk everything that he’s going to be good. I said, I believe you Donnie.

"But still, what if all of the sudden we find out that so-and-so (free agent) is dying to come to the Mavs and now you don’t have the cap room. That’s why we put together a plan and our consolation wasn’t too bad.”




STUPID muthafucka Cuban....Dumb ass nigga man on everything.

Oh and let this shit tickle your fancy right here:


The Mavericks had the 13th pick in the 2013 draft, but traded down to the 18th pick where they selected Shane Larkin. There's about a $200k salary difference between the 13th and 18th picks, and clearly, Cuban wanted every penny.


My niggas saved 200k. :lol: You can't make this shit up man.
 
Man. I just checked the standings like wtf...and they play each other 3 times before the season ends.. shit still wide open.

yup it is. but that's what happens. that's how good the warriors have been and the spurs have been. and then there's everyone else.
its also why i didn't like/don't like/ the foregone conclusions and media stuff about the team overall. just wait and see what happens.
the spurs been healthy and signed lamarcus aldridge, so it's not like they didn't try to reload for this year...
 
see nah now you going too far lol. they weren't intimidated. half their buckets came off of plays and back cuts right to the rim as well as them taking it to the rim as well lol.

They got intimidated. Why else are you afraid to drive to the rack and settling for contested jumpshots? Your jumper not falling you drive to the rack. That's like hooping 101. You do that and that opens up your jumpshots. If you the defense you don't have to worry about shit. All you gotta do is play them for the jump shot every play.

Make no mistake the Warriors didn't want this tonight. No one debating that. But they played stupid and horrible.

And Ginobilli just came back bussing like he was in his prime. :lol:

Warriors the team to beat until proven otherwise but I do get a kick out of people just writing off the Spurs like they don't have a shot. Because Popovich>>>>>Kerr and its not even close.

Because that's not what happened lol. No matter how much you try and say that's what happened its not. They went to the rack and MISSED. they shot their normal 3s most of them were wide open not contested crazy 3s the game just ended we not gonna rewrite what just happened a couple of hours ago fam lol

all you gotta do is play the warriors for the jump shot every play? a team that leads the league in assists and is near the top in points in the paint? lol
go head.
 

BTW, did anyone see this shit. Of course y'all didn't. This nigga Parsons just did the most stupid shit EVER. YOOoooo....these niggas are trash man. Parsons couldn't inbound the basketball so this stupid muthafucka throws it to a Nuggets player and its a damn steal to take it into OT and we lost. Goodness......I wish they'd trade Dirk so we can start this rebuilding process.

That stupid ass plan of Dwight and Deron. And he's about to fuck around and get both right now because nobody wants either of them overrated muthafuckas. Fucked your youth up and your franchise up for a pipe dream.

Naw you bugging. Jordan Clarkson was d'ing them cats up. Him and Russell. They were playing those passing lanes tough and damn near got a steal on the perimeter every time. That pick and roll shit the Warriors do wasn't working either. They played them well. The only difference between today and what usually happens is the Warriors usually hit those shots. Well Steph does. They didn't fall so they lost. Its not a mystery. They live and die by their jumpsshot. That's them.

Its easeier being a physical dominating team and winning than doing via the finesse way that the Warriors are doing it. Like you I am a big Jordan Bulls fan, and I hope their record never gets broken but for the Warriors to have the record they have playing the style they are playing, man I have to give them mad props for that..

Yea he did.. that's just bad.

2, all of this was on them being lazy period. they weren't even getting back on defense. they must have totally been out till like 4am and shit partying in l.a. that's what it really looked like.

they were missing layups, multiple layups and wide open 3s they weren't playing intense defense like they can..letting them do what they wanted.
it was lack of effort we can agree with that. you throw intimidating in there you're on your own. they weren't intimidated by any of them cats you named lol not a single one.

I wasn't saying intimidating as in they were scared of them. I'm saying it as they saw bodies in the paint and settled for jumpshots. I just don't understand the 2016 of basketball. They in the league so may be they understand it but this stupid ass analytics shit is retarded. They believe that its better to shoot 30 3's then it is to shoot 30 layups because the 3 point shot is worth more but its a more difficult shot. That thinking is stupid to me. Your jumper not falling drive to the rack.

I gave Curry plenty of props last year and he's really the only reason i started watching Warrior games to begin with. The boy has talent. But that "Chase for 73" shit that they put on the front page of NBA.com hit a nerve.

I got a 20 year old Special Edition SI magazine from the Bulls 72-10 season sitting on a mantel in my living room next to my family pictures. I dont dislike the Warriors....but I DONT WANT the Warriors to break that record. Simple as that! I look at their score after every game hoping they lost. That record is one thing that i never thought anyone would break...but here we go.

Also.....I have no problem with folks giving them props.....trust me, i dont.,,,,Im just getting tired of people putting them on pedestals that they havent earned. One and a half years of dominance doesnt get u a seat next to the GOATS. People can call it hate ...but thats just my honest opinion.



Btw..the thought of having two 70 win teams (Spurs and GS) in one season is interesting!

Ninjas in here still talking about the spurs...:hmm:...Just like ninjas use to talk about OKC...:hmm:...Just like ninjas use to talk about the Clips...:hmm:...and once GS wins it again, these same ninjas gonna still be talking about ifs, buts, ands, other teams, coaches and players, all for not.........................

I'm on the Giannis bandwagon. Dude is a freak of an athlete with incredible length and it's obvious he got skills because he record his 3rd triple double this year.

Dude has another year in Milwaukee and to free agency he goes unless the Bucs sign him back. I'm interested if he'll stay or go. I hope he stays in the east. The Hornets needs a player just like that.

Actually, that schedule is fairly challenging.

20 games left.
9 of 20 are on the road.
7 of 20 are against OKC, GS, and the Clippers
8 of 20 are against middle of the pack play-off teams
The Pelicans usually puts up a decent fight.
The Jazz is a fight for a play-off spot, so is Chicago.

This is not a cake walk stretch for the Spurs. They could easily loose up to 5 games in this stretch.

Did it to save 200k man.....on a pipe dream. The dumbest shit these niggas EVER did was say Roddy B was a "untouchable" like he was Dirk and they didn't even play. This now takes the cake. This the dumbest shit i've ever seen from this organization. This shit is worthy of not even being a fan of these niggas no more. They don't deserve loyalty. I'm not Dirk i don't have to be loyal to the Mavs. :lol:

I been putting blame on Donnie too and he gets it for them shitty moves but Cuban has taken his spot as numero uno fuck up.

These Mufuckas don't deserve our loyalty and I'll reserve my right to dip on their ass the moment Dirk retires if I don't like what I see fuck that

I've rode with these Mufuckas through thick and thin

All my teams

You want to know the difference between this and the Cowboys?

Jerry might be fucking up but you can't ever tell me Jerry ain't trying to win, he has been delusional over the years but that nigga be trying to win

Now look at what the Mavs have been doing

Is that a winning formula?

Can you tell me they are trying to win blowing up a title team?

Can you tell me they are trying to win avoiding drafting franchise changing players and avoiding the draft all together?

Letting it be known they will give Parsons a max contract this summer???

Nah man fuck that and fuck them
