NBA's Emmanual Mondiay (11.25.19) - 11 games

[MoneyTalks41890]

Cheap shot by WCS

[Osirus89]

Shameful performance from both teams but GS got the more valuable factor: the loss.

[GTR11]

Yeah GSW tank want be challenged this year. I'll be surprised if they win more than ten games. That trash they got there won't be in NBA next year, unless they're on a rookie contact.

[Young Stapler]

Playing with the fans emotions like they would win and then they lose It takes a true Warrior to tank like this!

I’ve been saying that the Sixers are pretenders and they’re disappointing.

Them and the Bucks look very dissapointing so far this year.

Got Celtics, Raps and Heat above them right now

You mean the Bucks team who is 14-3, won 8 in a row, has played the 2nd hardest schedule and has the largest point differential in the league? That is the team you think looks "very disappointing" this season?

Did you expect them to start 35-0, while winning by 30 a game? Otherwise, I'm not sure why you would think their play has been "disappointing".

Lol what the **** is he talking about? They've had the hardest schedule, they're missing their 2nd best player, and 14-3 is disappointing?

From the games I watched, doesn't look like they've improved on their weaknesses from last year. Particularly Giannis I would've liked to see him add midrange pull ups and fadeaways to keep defenses from building that wall like we did. Free throws were big in pO last year, whole team struggling there. Doesn't look like a championship team from what I'm watching, I expect them to be knocked out in the playoffs again, just seem like a very beatable team but I'm open to being proven wrong.

Giannis in this regular season has been phenomenal, I love Bud, but when defenses lock in on Giannis, don't think Wesley Matthews and Bledsoe will get you those PO W's.

Also 2nd hardest schedule? Let's review who you guys have faced:

You beat: Rockets (good win), Cavs, Magic, Raptors (good win), Timberwolves, Clippers (by 5 w/out KL, PG), Thunder, Bulls, Pacers (w/out VO), Bulls, Hawks, Blazers (w/out DL), Pistons, Jazz (w/out Gobert)

You lost to: Heat, Celtics, Jazz

I counted 2 good wins you should be proud of, does this^ seem like the second hardest schedule to you?
Again, strong team, should be favourites, I'll be critical until they prove me wrong.

Clippers shot 36 ft with out even fouling them it was hilarious ,kaawi was there but refused to play,everybody played pacers without Vo,gobert is irrelevant giannis averaged 35 against gobert ,they shot 47% from 3 they hit 21and they lost .
Bucks play at 1/3 till now giannis 1/2 .
We can talk again after lal clippers raptor dallas games

To be fair, those 2 don't even qualify as good wins. According to media and rgmers, Rapts are 'fake champs and no kawhi' and Rockets are a bad combo of
a ball dominat foul hunter and ball dominant stat hunter who can't shoot.

Remember to review the context behind the stats before using them in an argument

You're trying to argue against the Bucks having the hardest schedule (I think it dropped to 2nd now). There's nothing to discuss with you.

The only "context" that needs to be considered is that Kawhi and PG didn't play in the @LAC game.

Imagine looking at the hardest or 2nd hardest schedule and saying, "Eh, it's weak competition"

[Homer38]

The Bucks are 14-3 and they could easily be 17-0!

I mean, they lost 2 games early in the year when they had a 20-point lead and the other loss was on a buzzer beater in Utah.

[leolozon]

He is the MVP so far, but the Jazz clearly needed Gobert. They gave up 15 offensive rebounds and 6 to Giannis alone. Tony Bradley can not do the job.

All they needed is not give that many second chance points to take this game.

Lmao at the excuses, the bucks are missing their second scorer. Stop it

*whispers* and George Hill.

Yeah, you are right both of those guys are better than Gobert, the Bucks really need them more than the Jazz need Gobert, especially when it comes to defensive rebounds. Thanks for the input.

Did I say that? I don't believe I did.

What I'm saying is that the "Oh, the Jazz take this with Gobert!" are dumb as hell because Milwaukee just counters, "We take it with Middleton and Hill" and then we all dance in circles.

Bucks have had 2nd hardest schedule. The hardest schedule of them all has been the Lakers. 15-2!

[NPZ]

Still top of the league!

But 15-2 against a lot of sub .500 teams = Lakers suck.

We actually don't suck, though.

That one went over your head, ace. Happens to us all from time to time.

He's not wrong to side eye the hard schedule remark. The SOS doesnt take into account injuries. They played Wolves without Towns, Heat without Butler, Jazz without Gobert, Clips without PG/Kawhi, Blazers without Lillard, and im sure im missing someone/some team.

He is wrong to question how dominant theyve been though. Theyre 2 25 point lead losses away from a 14-1 start on the year. Theyre only other loss was at the buzzer. Thats insane

[Jadoogar]

OH ****, Gasol held Embiid to 0-11 0 points

They both played horrible. Gasol was pretty bad against embiid last year himself. This game he was 1-8. 3 points.

It’s not like gasol does anything offensively

But embiid just stunk up the place big time. Couldn’t handle double teams.

Gasol's job isn't to score tho, his offense mainly consists of playmaking and spacing. Embiid is the sixers' leading scorer.
