First a random-as-Silver's-ping-pong-balls drug test right after a game winner then concussion protocol as the Media's Vaunted Pedestal race is entering its last leg. This sequence of events returning parity to media ratings darlings Crookbrook and Durbeta is surely pure fucking coincidence.

And spurdoras will just lay down like betacucks instead of raising up a twitter stink demanding an investigation and suspension of Oladipo, minimum. Fuck this rigged league.

>>74612503
is there some other strategy at this point in the season? you're not getting a d-leaguer acclimated in 20 games left

Warriors first round exit confirmed?

No joke, if Curry plays like this they're not even getting past the first round

Watch the Mavs if you want to see a prime example of 5D chess coaching.

Carlisle subtly resting good players, playing shit players to give them experience and keeping the game close as a result because he knows he can win the game at any time.

Shut the hell up you pig brained fools. You are all incompetent short sighted reactionists.

Why is everyone packing the paint for rebounds? Just box out you fucktards and stop mobbing so you can get transition points.

That's why I bought my son's wife a LeBron jersey. Repeat is on.

Not sure if anyone has been paying attn, but the Wolves have been showing lots of signs that they're figuring it out...for the last couple of weeks.

As weird as it sounds, Lavine going down kinda solidified Towns and Wiggins as the dudes. And the team, and especially Rubio the distributor, is so much better as a result.

Used to think Rubio was the odd guy out. Not so sure it isn't Lavine.

>>74613676

No they still don't know how to close, that much is obvious. I mean their overall play. They're seriously starting to figure it out...and Lavine's injury is what triggered it. It put everyone into the correct role. Rubio the trigger man, and Wiggins/Towns the studs.

Defensively they're still hit or miss, but even that is showing some signs.

>>74613653

He's the biggest Steph Curry fan but I think he's starting to dislike him. He owns all his jerseys (home, away, all-star, nba finals) and yesterday there was a burning smell in the house and one of his jerseys was a little burnt.

I think I'm going to go buy him a jersey but I need suggestions.

Nikola Jokic or Willie Cauley-Stein?

>>74613653

The problem with the twolves was always defense and closing out games. They can score with anybody but didn't get stops. Ever since the asb they've been playing defense and it makes a world of difference. They still choke in the 4th, but it's one step at a time

Easiest way to identify a redditor: If they think Malone or KG are better than Dirk, they are obvious redditors.

They play very little defense, they play very fast, and they score a lot of points.

Jokic is as talented as any big in the league offensively. Can shoot and create for others.

Can pose all kinds of matchup probs for ppl and score with anyone, but since they don't play defense every good smart team will beat them more often than not.

This does speak to how much of a disappointment Mudiay has been, but Jameer Nelson, for his age, is still balling the fuck out.

Get the feeling Jamal Murray is the future at their PG. Even tho he isn't a pure PG. Fits what they do.

KG was a better passer (one of the best big men passers in history) better rebounder and an elite defender.

Dirk was a better shooter, average rebounder and an awful defender.

KG's mvp season (went to west finals) >>>>>>>>> Dirks mvp season (#1 seed, 67 wins, lost in 1st round to GSW).

Dirks an all time great, but KG gets the edge as a better overall player.

>>74613793
>>74613875
Mudiay has been underwhelming and Jameer exceeding expectations but Jameer is starting because he earned it whilst Mudiay is injured.

Also I think some bench time could help him a lot, focus more on the types of shots he takes and stop those clutching fadeaways that never go in.

Your logic goes out door by the fact that they lost the Finals with HC advantage.

Spurs won 68 games and lost in the 2nd round last year. HC doesn't mean as much in the Western Conference.

>>74614089
My fault. I knew Curry came in around 2010 because I remember that Blazers game where they only had 5 players and one fouled out (kek).

Mild brain fart

Any future successful Denver offense (current for that matter) runs through Jokic. May as well start two 2 guards in the backcourt.

Jamal Murray and Gary Harris make sense.

Don't see Faried fitting, or Wilson Chandler. Kinda like Barton altho half the time I don't think they even know what to do with him.

>>74614099
And you think without homecourt they'll perform better?

>who here still watching the game because they like watching Manu play

>>74614059
Dirk continually made scrubs in to gods just by playing along side him.

Jason Terry was nobody before he played with Dirk.

JJ Barea has never done shit without Dirk.

Tyson Chandler was the only actual player who Dirk needed because he's an actual good rim defender.

>>74614111
Chandler is a great fit - knows how to defend, above average rebounder at SF, shoots the three, drives well, cuts well. Barton need the ball in his hands more often, but he's a guy that's good for running the second unit. Faried and Jokic actually work great together, Jokic is such a threat down low that teams forget about Faried and he gets free putbacks usually.

I'd agree that surrounding Jokic with shooters, defenders and cutters is a surefire way to the playoffs.

Jason Terry was a borderline allstar at one point and constant threat for 6 man of the year. Chandler was always a beast in the paint and on the boards. The matrix was a former allstar and wasn't over the hill yet. Kidd was a great floor general. People act like Dirk played with complete scrubs. He had a squad of grizzled vets that meshed really well together

>>74614059
KG played with a prime Marbury and Sprewell with the Wolves. Those are better players than Dirk ever had.

This was a horrible night for us guys, how do we recover?

I put all money on the Raptors Celtics and Warriors and now I'm broke. To make matters worst, I put the last of my money on the Nets in s last ditch bet during halftime because they were beating the Mavs at the time.

Since the is the best place to get tips besides reddit my home website, I need help.

>>74614178

Starbury was always what stopped Marbury and is why he left the league ao early and never reached is potential. It's arguable that he was better than nash anyway. KG had a declining Sprewell for 1 year. No amount of mental backflips will change Dirk always having good teams and KG always having shitty teams

>>74614219

Dirk never played with anybody remotely as good as Ray Allen or Paul Pierce.

>>74614213
> KG always having shitty teams

Once KG threw on a Boston jersey he's had twice as much help than Dirks ever had. Including his days with the Nets.

I thought that Wall was finally unshook but they are losing to the Kings...

>>74614219
Denver's ones are good looking but from what I can remember I'd probably say Lakers ones were the best. But Denver also have Ally Sturm on the sideline, low key hot reporter.

>>74614039
I'm pretty sure ole coach nelson had previously coached the mavericks and knew a shit ton of their playbooks.
Also they were one of the first teams to blitz dirk hard on the double team and have the gaurd go for the steal once he used his signature post spin move. Dirk still hadn't learned how to completely handle double teams yet. That series is actually the major reason Dirk developed into such a dangerous person to double team. He learned from his mistakes and began to anticipate double teams and make the extra hockey pass instead of trying to shoot over double teams.

Ironically Dirk's failures all contributed to his absolute dominant 2011 season when he was virtually unstoppable.

And his ass could still shoot over a double team if he was feeling it.

That's because Dirk is arguable the greatest PF of all time desu.

It's either Dirk, Duncan, or Malone. I give the edge to Duncan but you can make a reasonable argument for each.

I think if Dirk hadn't chocked against the warriors and if the refs hadn't refballed dirk against the heat the debate between him and Duncan would be much less one-sided.

Oh yeah, that team was far from scrubs but each player (other than dirk/terry) was past their prime.

Dirk definitely makes everyone better around him by his mere presence. Teams have to completely change their defensive schemes allowing other players the space, flow, and freedom to play beyond their skill level.

Even at this age his presence still improves the overall team flow. There is a reason Mavs had high scoring offenses. Dirks presence alone turns him in to a playmaker

>>74614298
Dirk was a below average one on one defender but had uncanny IQ and active hands that allowed him to defend beyond what his natural abilities allow. Similar to Larry bird being a average defender but his basketball instincts allowed him to make uncanny defensive plays.

For example, there is no way he could effectively gaurd duncan one on one in the post, but he is actually fairly effective as help defender by getting to the right spots at the right time and forcing the shooter to atleast have to score over a 7 footer. He also has fairly active hands. I'll give Duncan the edge simply because duncan was dominant defensively. But I'll always have the opinion that Dirk's defense exceeded expectations.
