That being said, regular season is one thing.. you need to show you can play at that level or elevate your play when the lights are bright


He seems to lack some requisite athleticism for the things he's trying to do.

It’s really odd because at times he can elevate but a lot of the times he doesn’t have much shiftiness or wiggle to his game. He relies a lot of times on outmuscling someone or getting a straight line drive to the hoop

Is it outrageous to say there’s some RJ similarities in that regard?


Not in the least.

Nuggets have no bench... Strawther comes in and lights it up. Adelman seems like a smart coach. Knows the right buttons to push etc.

He’s a turnover waiting to happen. Basically a more athletic Randle.

That would leave only the Pacers, and either Minnesota or Denver in our way.

It's there for the taking. That's all I will say.

Pacers over Celtics
TWolves over OKC

Pacers over TWolves.

And years of the media s*cking Haliburton's d*ck while pointing out how lame the Knicks are.

This is what you signed up for.

You should have just stuck with the genocide.

Considering Randle just averaged 25 PPG 7 RPG 7 APG against Jimmy butler and Draymond green, if Kuminga can be a more athletic version of that then that means he’s an mvp player. I’ll take that.

Anybody see this one? KG on change in the NBA. I think our team (and really the best ones) lean to OG values. Am I wrong? :dontknow:

We need to win it all this year because it will be over if Giannis goes to SA and teams up with Wemby and Fox.

After our last game there is no reasonable doubt any longer when our best player is kept off the court by design.

This is my last year as a dedicated fan. The NBA is run by people who have no respect for the sport. It's just another equity asset with cash flow.

Hearing the announcers exult about game 7 Sunday, last night, makes me fear the league really wants a game 7 in Boston too. Ratings

Wouldn't surprise me either. Two of the biggest fan bases gutting it up in a game 7?! The anticipation as well as the ratings will be crazy.
