}~~~> Official 2024/2025 NBA Thread<~~~{ OKC Thunder NBA champs}

Nobody is saying shit cuz it's only 3 active posters in this thread and one of em uses 30 screen names. It only seems like it's a lot of people trolling when the Lakers lose because of that. :dunno:
30 names wtf


Man i’m get back into Bball mode


But you know when the Lakers are playing solid it’s be hushmouf
 


Good hopefully Malika goes to work for some Public Access television station :lol:
 
Frye is absolutely right.
my problem with these arguments is these guys be thinking the wheel was just invented. Like the players before these guys were never compared lol. Like Kobe wasn’t compared to MJ. Or that they didn’t have all these Baby MJs and Baby Shaqs.

The rules weren’t just invented. What happened is that people started crying and complaining.

It’s some shit I’m not fan of myself like guys having to “chase rings” in order for validation. So I can kind of get the argument he’s making but the product ain’t good. Basketball sucks to watch and nobody wants to admit it’s because of analytics. Sports’s especially NBA has allows nerds and statisticians as well as gambling kill their product.
 
I mean it made sense. Nuggets looked like they were the road team.
Yeah, but that shit never works out well when they pick a team to win but never the other team.

They must don't realize the players see that on TV and will be extra motivated to prove them wrong.

No there's a big difference there.

The baby MJs and the baby Shaqs were player comparisons in regards to their games/size.

That's not the issue. That's more of a player prototype thing.

The issue is that today, when a player comes up short in any way, the next thing out of these old ass announcers mouth is "Kobe would have never done that" or "MJ never cheated the game like that" or "Bird had to fly coach and still showed up every game" or "Magic understood the responsibility of building a league"...

The "back in my day" sermons are never ending.

But they get away with it because no one's there to confront them on their sanctimonious bullshit.
 


Frye and the twitter poster both hit the nail on the head. And the crazy thing is, how often do we see this in other major sports? Not often. Folks just watch the games that are being played currently and talk about that. I know that this is just one thread on BGOL(so not a big sample size) but this thread is a good example of how people talk about the NBA. When there’s actual games being played, it’s fucking dead in here. But when there’s talks about “Who’s The GOAT” or player movement or anything that’s not about the play on the court, it gets popping in here.

Same with all the media and social media out there. Like why the fuck is Austin Reaves even speaking about Jordan when im sure he never saw him play? Because the media asked him to compare LeBron and Jordan. Cut that shit bruh. It’s annoying. Again, nobody gives a fuck.

It's too late. You guys spent over a decade diminishing and hating on some of the greatest players to ever play so Michael Jordan and Vanessa Bryant can get their shoe money. MJ and Kobe are the face of old head fuckery and mythology. Their legacies are going to take the biggest hit going forward, already have. Nobody told their dumbass fans to troll and pit their brands against the most popular and greatest player of all time. Just dumb. The idea was Bron and his fans don't matter and can't hurt us. You think we not gonna be spending the next 30 years telling anybody who will listen yalls bitch ass behavior towards Bron or how over rated Kobe and MJ are? :lol:

Shouldve showed more grace to the GOAT. :dunno:

WE control their stories and narratives now. :yes:
 
Kobe and Jordan fans are the only ones who post crappy non basketball pages like Brickscenter.

Bron fans post post game interviews and stats.

MJ and Kobe fans dumbed down the discourse for 15 years.

Bron fans are reviving it. Channing Frye is a LeBron guy by the way.


Everybody born this century sees who the problem is and who has been grossly overrated by shoe buyers on social media. Bron was getting cheers in Denver last night, then you log on BGOL and because he's so dark skinned, 30 alt accounts swear no one likes him. :roflmao:
 
The crowd had a decent amount of lakers fan in it is… that was kinda surprising

I know BGOL doesn't want to believe this, but in real life, LeBron James is the most popular and celebrated NBA player by a country mile. It's not close. There hasn't been an arena he been in yet this year where him or his son have been booed. I don't check ticket prices, but I'm sure nosebleeds were well over $100 a pop last night. Players that are hated don't draw that kind of gate.
