No, dude. Come on my friend.

And @zizinho , that is not BARELY a Big 3. Are you joking? That is a Big 3, in every sense of the description

Butler and Embiid are legit superstars but im still not sold on Simmons. this is his 3rd year in the league and he still doesent have ANY jumpshot. also said he didnt even work on it during summer? lets see what kind of player he turns into, but right now hes not an all star yet.

and Butler was exactly what this team needed. leadership, defense and a 2nd scoring option. huge coup

He’s an all star without even needing a jump shot, doesn’t that say enough?

if you look at it so simply, you might be right. but if you take a deeper look, and see that your primary ball handler has zero go to moves in the halfcourt, it will be a problem against good defensive teams. thats why getting Butler was huge, he will take some of the burden off of Embiid offensively

btw, its ridiculous that these refs are calling clean pivoting as travel, yet they let players take 4 when attacking the rim, or even 2-3 steps before starting to dribble.

fucking love Tyson Chandler

 

[Osman]

So this trade was finally done, hate to lose the high end allstar all around complete player he is, but good riddance to the childish toxic idiot he been for past 2 months (hope for you he doesnt fuck you and leave in summer). Leaves you without depth so everyone better stay healthy for sure.


I expected worse turnout then this, so I'm happy with Covington part of the deal, elite 3&D wing role player, fits well with Towns, but I'm not really sold on Saric. And I would said it before he declined in beginning of this season. He is a stretch 4 so in another way he fits with spacing for Towns, but otherwise, he seems unathletic, poor defensively and not that great in general, even if he can get very hot in efficiency.

Wow, calma guys, its just the Hawks. Chandler tho

 

[KB824]

This whole back to back thing isn't working out too well for the Lakers right now.

Which makes no sense since they have depth at every position.

 

[Osman]

Its funny to have problem with Hawks But Trae really has ridicolous range, its funny he tried to attack at end tho, papa Tyson said nuh uh sonny.

Like I said, they have issues on the 2nd nights of back to backs. They go and wallop the kings on the road and then struggle against the Hawks at home. It happened 2 weeks ago too. They beat Portland in Portland, and then get clobbered by a Kawhi-less Raptors team at home.

Doesn't make much sense considering that they are now 2 deep at every position with the addition of Chandler.

 

[Osman]

Talking about your game, I'm shocked that idiot Lance isn't banned for the very dirty play on Lin. Could broken his foot/injured his leg.

I honestly didn't see that. I fell aslep. But if it was dirty, then a suspension is in order.

James is now 5th all time in scoring, passed Chamberlain with his best game of the season so far

 

[pitbull]

this is stupid funny, Zalgiris is leading by 6, CSKA scores a three, there's a bit over minute left and CSKA clock operator decides to casually steal 4 seconds from Zalgiris attack with the 14 second attack button CSKA go on to win in overtime and the incident gets blamed on "clock error"

 

[zizinho]

lol i used to do stuff like that when i was a kid

 

[Jethro]

 

[Gagi]

Luka is beasting. Good job, Hawks.

 

[zizinho]

damn i envy Dallas so much. will forever hate Mitch and Jim for the Nash trade, 4 draft picks (one 1st rounder from the latest draft) for a free agent lol

 

[zizinho]

this guy

 

[Mark]

How was Juve night?

 

[Gagi]

THIS KID! Man, how he took over and won the game for Mavs.



And I love how Brunson impacted the game as well in final minutes.

@zizinho @CR 7

Lonzo was on fire tonight. 16 points (7/11 shooting) - 10 rebounds (3 Offensive) - 10 assists - 5 steals - 1 block. And in a road game. If he starts playing like this more often...

Lonzo and Lebron first Lakers teammates with triple doubles in a game since Magic and Kareem in 1982.
