The Celtics are done. The Rapties are just getting started.

I thought Ingram was supposed to be the next KD. Why hasn't that worked out?

Why didn't The Process work?

Giannis is legit, needs a better supporting cast other than Smellyladova

>>74505934
because it's still in-process

>no ball till Wednesday after being Bucked

>>74505934
because Hinkie wanted the Zinger over Okafor but got vetoed by

He's done better than Giannis, Kobe, and Kawhi their rookie years. And not that much worse off than Curry his rookie year

>>74506067
>have no good wing players

but that's wrong though

Dammit Rapties it's getting harder to defend you.

>>74506107

That whiteboy is nothing special

why is it so hard to find a good shooting guard in the NBA? there are too many point guards as well.

Does go meds still come here

>>74505993
good dekobe could use the rest

If your team hasn't clinched a playoff spot yet you might as well be tanking

>>74504638
Of course, the faggot doesn't play defense.

>>74506249
the really good shooting guards got moved to PG

>>74505960
>Canadian thinking that his opinion on basketball matters more than a Basedtralian's

>>74506383

But the twolves will benefit more from playoff experience than another lottery pick

>>74506249
Part of it is because scoring point guards are more abundant now than any time in the NBA and have taken the job of a shooting guard, creating off the dribble and shooting.

Shooting guards are just catch and shoot guys now who run off screens for threes, there's very few who can post up and have mid range, DeRozan and Jimmy come to mind as complete SGs.

But those guys are dying off because le analytics meme.

>>74506436
Australians fall under the euro category here on /nba/, and since euros don't know shit about basketball, you don't know anything about basketball.

>>74506249
All the guards these days are selfish and want to dribble the ball around the floor instead of running around and getting open and knocking down shots like Reggie Miller and Rip Hamilton

>>74506610
But Euro league is better than NBA.

The Euroleague is the second best league in the world. NBA is the best.

>>74506919
and yet the NBA is considering expanding into Europe because of fear of fading into irrelevance.

Why do you think the NBA is desperate to take stars from Europe, like Giannis and Porzingod?

>>74506069
Those three players were drafted late in the lottery and thus they didn't have high expectations their rookie years. Everyone is giving Ingram shit because he was drafted second overall.

Kobe and Kawhi in particular went onto good teams and didn't have to showcase much. Ingram gets nearly 30 minutes a night and he looks like shit besides being able to defend.

Real talk, the NBA really needs to adopt the international cylinder rules. Defenders flying above the rim knocking out all of that wobbly stuff is hype as fuck

This is one of the most frustrating seasons ever. I could understand it if we were just straight up bad like the nets or philly, but we're not. We're in just about every game but choke hard as fuck every time. Things have to change. Wiggins needs too stop being melo-lite, KAT needs to demand the ball, and Rubio needs to fuck off and stop teasing us with glimpses of potential greatness. They all need to go to defense bootcamp. Fix this shit Thibs

so when are the warriors fans going to die out? i want them to stfu like the Heat fans did.

Brandon Ingram in 5 years is going to be a ____ NBA player

Wow, comparing Kawhi to Westbrook is like total opposites.

Kawhi plays team basketball with winning in mind and still shines individually, while WB is a statpadder who has the benefit of using statpadding as an excuse to lose games.

Leonard destroys Wiggins every time they match up.

The weeaboo Celtics fan needs to go, Jaylen Brown is a bust. Half of your titles don't count because you played in a era with like 8 teams.

Look up the recent play that E!SPN and Bleacher Report got wet to during the Suns game. Westbrick bricks a shot in typical Westbrick fashion, steals the rebound from Adams, purposely bricks the putback to get another rebound, and then lays it in.

Like what's the point of being a center in OKC when Westbrook wants to take all the fucking rebounds.

It doesnt even matter. That stat is a novelty. It means nothing. Its a shiny object for retards.

Westbrook and Kawhi are the true MVP cause with either of them both their teams would be pure shit

>>74510411
do you know how many times a player outside a top 3 team has won MVP?

do you know oscar didnt even win MVP the season he averaged a triple double?

Are other players jelly of kawhi Leonard?

If westbrook doesnt win it, im done with this league. name 4 ppl that deserve it over him, im going to makedinner its going to take you a while becaue you cant

I honestly can't see Warriors winning a title this year. They look worse than last year and now with Durant injured the roaster is showing regression and flaws from this past offseason.

Cavs as well look worse but not as bad as the Warriors.

I remember playing 2k 2 years ago and Westbrook was averaging a triple double with Durant on the team and getting mvp awards. I was like no way this could ever happen.

>>74510704
there is literally no logical argument for AD over Westbrook.

>>74511198
westbrook has more help now, cap this post, taj gibson will be a BIG factor in the playoffs. expect a 50 pt trip dub from westbrook, you heard it here first.

that wiggins got predraft comparisons to legod is an insult to the king. wiggins at his best won't even be paul george. he'll be somewhere between rudy gay and a skinnier, discount melo.

>>74512555

i think he has a really high ceiling, probably tmac level in terms of offensive scoring

i think he'll become a competent defender with 1-2 elite seasons in his late 20s

>>74512583
the best scorers need a good basketball IQ, which is why as good of a scorer as carmelo was/is, he only won the scoring title once (I think) and has consistently scored less than lebron, his peer who is in almost every way a less talented pure scorer.

wiggins doesn't have a good bball iq. at all. and the delay in his development in this area is concerning.

>unironically talking about basketball iq

>>74512694

Ingram memes aside, bball iq is a real thing. It's what seperates the Rudy Gays from the Jimmy Butlers or the E. Payton's from the John Walls

>I don't know what nintendo was thinking when they half-assed everything about it

Sounds like the finally wised up and started doing the same shit Sony and Microsoft have been doing for years, since retards will buy anything and care more about companies more than the games. That there were legit cheers from PS3/360 owners when The Last of Us: Remastered/Halo Collection were both announced at E3 as launch titles for the PS4/XBox respectively, was a sign of how shit the current era of gaming is.

>>74510523
>I honestly can't see Warriors winning a title this year. They look worse than last year and now with Durant injured the roaster is showing regression and flaws from this past offseason.
>
>Cavs as well look worse but not as bad as the Warriors.

The best scenario is both of these teams get eliminated in upsets, since it would make Adam Silver cry over all the money lost. The only real downside to this scenario is a dogshit team like the Cockshits going all the way by literally chucking threes and flopping for fouls, only to end up playing an equally shitty team out of the east.

Even a Cockshits/Cavs NBA Finals sounds like utter shit from the complete lack of defense we'll see on both side and all the meme-chucking.

http://www.lakersnation.com/lakers-news-luke-walton-wants-to-get-brandon-ingram-more-shots/2017/03/04/

>Obviously we want him taking more shots that than right now,” Walton said at Saturday’s practice. “If I see a game happening like that again, I might manipulate it a little bit to get him some more shots. But I thought he did a really good job of not forcing it.

Holy fuck drafting Lonzo "I will be better than MJ" Ball sounds really good but now that Luke will give Ingram the keys to the offense the Lakers will finish the rest of the season undefeated make the 8th seed, pull an upset over the Warriors( remember the Lakers are the anti Warriors). make it to the conference finals but lose to the Rockets( Lakers Rockets is the real broship so many trades go between these teams. And we get a Cockshits Wizkidz Finals. John Wall wins finals MVP and the Switch flops.

>>74513293

Ingram needs a minimum of 10 shots a game both this season and next. I think Ingram's problem is that he doesn't want to step on JC or Randle's toes (he seems to get along really well with Dlo so I don't think that's it) and he comes from the Coach K system of making the right play.

Kobe says he's going to work with him, because it's a mental thing he needs to develop. He has it in batches, like in that 22 point game but he has to keep that aggressiveness the whole game.

There is no one in the past,current or future that will pass Larry Bird in terms of basketball greatness.

>>74513390
Its really a consistency thing. The whole team has that problem. They play really good for 2 games then suck for the next 3.

Randle goes from 23/18 so some shit stat line against the Celtics.

Ingram goes from 22 points 2 games ago to 0 points.

Against Boston they started off well, making good plays keeping the ball moving. But then the Celtics just kept hitting meme 3s and the Lakers just gave up. They give up too often when they see the other team just making shots.

Lebron is the Luffy of the NBA. He will undoubtedly go down as the king of his era and an all-time great. The Gol D. Roger of the NBA has got to be Jordan. He's the goat and the one to inspire an entire generation of players.
The Yonko are Kobe, Duncan, Shaq and Wade. They all tried to take the mantle of world's greatest after Jordan but never quite got to that level. Specifically Wade is Shanks (helped Lebron begin his legendary journey), Kobe is Kaidou (in a one-on-one always pick Kobe), Duncan is WB (didn't care about personal accolades, only about his organization's success), and Shaq is Big Mom (no explanation needed).
But there's one Yonko left out, and that's Blackbeard. Blackbeard quickly went from under-appreciated star to all-time powerhouse threatening to make the era his. To me, that's Steph Curry. No one thought it was possible to shoot the ball like Steph like no one thought it was possible to have 2 DF. It changed the landscape of the NBA. All of a sudden Curry and his crew of absolute monsters was terrorizing the league.
And just when you thought the Blackbeard Pirates couldn't get any better, they got an infusion of legendary talent. Enter Kevin Shiryuu Durant. He betrayed Russell Magellan Westbrook in order to conquer the world with Steph. Was it a wise move? Perhaps, it got him out of jail and onto the grand stage. But some call it unforgivable. Shirryu himself acknowledges "If this doesn't work, do we break up?"

The thing that pisses me off the most is that they didn't even acknowledge that he missed the layup. I mean I don't have replay but to me that looked like a shaqtin candidate, and if you were only listening to the commentators you would've thought he just posterized KP or something.

>>74520761
Ibaka for Oladipo and Sabonis happened on draft day. When FA started, they felt confident on keeping Durant and there would not have been enough shots for Waiters with other players.

>>74520716
>>74520716
Naw. Giving Dwight the ball is always a bad move. He is best playing defense and getting dunks on broken plays. Once you let him do postups and stuff he starts spilling spaghetti. The coach is doing the right thing with him.
