>>77605344
Kawhi is a more valuable basketball player than Curry (unless you think that he's actually bad at defense, which is a 20% plausible position). Even though Curry is more enjoyable and talented and important to his team on offense and a better scorer and passer. From a purely computerized point of view, Kawhi is better.
>>
>>77605344
Kawhi is an all-time great defender and excellent offensive player
Steph is good at shooting memes and is a average to shit tier defender

Curry is not just "good at shooting memes" though. In addition to being the literal best 3 point shooter ever, he can shoot from anywhere on the court, he's an extremely good passer, he can score almost at will, his handles are fucking absurd, he's one of the best all-around offensive players ever in history.

I mean yes Kawhi is also very good on offense and has a much better defensive game but this 3point memes stuff is just stupid

Kobe didn't tear his ACL that season, he played 78 games, it was the 2012-13 season when they had Gasol, Dwight, and Nash. Just take the L you cocksucking tripfaggot.

>>77606092
Harden was legit awful in the playoffs and deserves no respect whatsoever. Refs and Lue coming off the bench on fire carried him through the OKC series and just shat himself into oblivion in the Spurs series then blocked by the left hand of God so hard he got shook harder than John Wall at a E3 Nintendo presentation and had the worst game/choke by a superstar player in NBA history.

I don't even know what they can 're-engage' on at this point. There's still all the same players on the same teams. It's not like Ryan Anderson's contract is suddenly going to change.

Either the Knicks want to trade Melo, or they don't. That simple.

>The date was April 12, 2013—game 80 of the Los Angeles Lakers’ regular season. Kobe Bryant had been logging brutal minutes throughout the spring and was doing it once again. He had played virtually the entire game, despite hyperextending his left knee early in the second half.

So you're talking about an injury in April, when the season was virtually over. Also it wasn't an ACL tear you dumb shit. Here's another 2 Ls.

You're the one who brought up injuries and you said Kobe tore his ACL the season of that infographic when in fact he played 78 games and did not get injured until the end of teh season where it was irrelevant for the infographic. L

That's you, you literally make false statements and collect Ls for it. L
> you defended shaq when he himself made those statements and then blast me because I compared two men of the same age
You're the one comparing LeBron getting 38 year old Shaq to Kobe getting MVP Shaq. Then you only use Kobe's old age stats when they work in your favor. L

How many Ls are you collecting. I've lost track.

You need a guard shooting even if at 40% because they are proving spacing for that center, it's about the team FG% and strategy.
If there is no Kobe Shaq doesn't dominate, if there is no Shaq or other big man, there is no Kobe dominating.

Creating a strawman cherrypicking stats of individual players in a team game and pitting them against each other to perpetuate this argument is beyond dumb and you lack 0 credibility.

has the season started yet? been waiting since the timer hit 0:00 of last seasons finals.

Why do I have the itching feeling that Carmelo will end up staying in New York? It seems that the Knicks wants some good role players from the Rockets and Morey isn't willing to budge. Furthermore, I think it could also be the D'Antoni situation.

Plus Carmelo doesn't wanna waive his clause for Cleveland, Boston, or OKC. Those are his three best opportunities of playing a leading role and it's also an opportunity for the Knicks to get back some decent role players (in part of Boston and OKC). But why only Houston?

He and the coach will have terrible chemistry, the bench would be thinned out just to grab him, he's not playing defense and he's a black hole when it comes to a motion offense. It wouldn't even be anything like GSW, who has 4 all-stars and 2 former MVP's in their prime. It would be two aging stars, a prime MVP candidate, and not much else.

I don't think anything will come of this but more speculation until training camp starts. And when that happens, it would be difficult to trade him off should KrisPKreme show all-star qualities. And the problem with that is KrisP would probably leave them before they could trade him.
>>
>>77610615
If the Knicks demand good role players from Houston, they're being dumbasses. As long as they don't have to take on Ryan Anderson, they should be happy to get Melo out of the locker room and off their contract books.
>>

He's gonna get traded to San Antonio and form the next superteam with Kawih and Gay

>>77610234
>thinking pb is from shit antonino

>>77610615
Knicks will trade him. They won't let him walk for nothing. It's just a matter of when. Melo wants to get paid, so he won't get a buyout.
>>
>>77611104
The Knicks will let him walk for nothing. They're more than willing to do that. Because he has a no trade clause it's actually better to not trade him then take on a bad contract, which is the only way they can make a Rockets trade work.

You can't give generic answers to unique situations.

Is there a reason why Melo doesn't want to go to Bawston? It seems perfect for him.
>big market
>lots of little roleplayers who will do the dirty work while he just chucks all day as the main guy
>coach doesn't play with traditional position roles so he won't have to play PF
>not a title contender but good enough to make the ECF and have some good games against LeBron
I can't think of anything more he would want. Or does Bawston just not want him?

The Knicks will do no such thing. Melo, Jackson and Dolan were an cancer hanging over the team all last season. You can't get rid of Dolan but Jackson was pushed out and so will Melo. The Knicks will move him, even at the cost of absorbing that shitty Ryan Anderson contract, because they don't want Melo's toxic behavior around Frank.

Reminder that Melo has a ETO, so playing a season in Portland or Boston isn't going to faze him as long as he gets the fuck out of NY and goes to where he wants eventually, which is HOU

I'm sorry but your fan biased and personally driven emotional argument doesn't matter.

What I said was factual, has been reported and concurred by multiple other reputable people that know about GMing, basketball decision making, and the inner workings of the Knicks organization, the new GM is going to be very careful not to make a big mistake and weigh all options, with not trading Melo very real, they want to trade him but if they need to take in Ryan Anderson to do it and can't get a third team to take him instead they won't trade him. It's all about getting a deal that works for them, not Melo.

It's hard to believe that no team in the league would be willing to take Ryan Anderson for literally free.

I mean he's not a great player or anything but he's not bad either. If you're on a team that's on the playoff bubble, he could legitimately make the difference for you between being in the playoffs and out.

So we're supposed to value defense primarily and then think that Steph Curry is better than Kawhi Leonard?
>>
>>77627865
No, CP3 compared to past point guards is legit among them stats wise with assists, steals, and WS. But the problem is he peaked with the Hornets. After that it's just failure after failure and choke after choke.
If he doesn't do anything significant with the Rockets he didn't do previously in his career, and starts to decline further (as projected), then I can see Westbrook passing him within 3-4 years.
Westbrook is already the leader of the pack with the new era of scoring speedy PG, and can't really be compare the pass first don't score PGs of the past. He's clearly in his own lane and shouldn't be compared to CP3, but I can still see him eventually passing him overall with status as Chris Paul's notoriety has slipped considerably and has stagnated in playoff failure year after year without reaching so much as the WCF and constantly injuring himself.

>>
>>77628278
You got that mixed up. Simmons makes basic passes in the right situations plus some difficult under the rim, out the post to a cutter passes.
Lonzo makes full court passes, cherry picker passes, half court lobs, and turns over the ball more as well. If you just compare their summer league play.

>>77628328
Debatable. I feel like Lonzo always makes the right basketball move (whether it's flashy or not). He doesn't force things and makes the simple pass. He also moves the ball much quicker than Simmons. Simmons pounds the ball too much waiting for the lane to open up for cutters.

Because he can pass and handle the ball he's a threat cutting and driving so he's already way ahead of Lonzo in scoring ability and has crazy athleticism, there's a reason people were comparing him to LeBron last year.

You're lost in the sauce and got it twisted.

>>
On the one hand, I do believe that CP3 is a choker. On the other hand, he has generally played well in the playoffs, even in series that he's lost. It's not even a case where he puts up bad playoff stats. In that series against the Rockets that they lost - which was his biggest choke by far - he still averaged 21 points and 10 assists a game coming off a hamstring injury. He had 31 and 11 in the game 6 that they collapsed in and 26 and 10 in the game 7 that they lost.

It's just hard for me to look at a guy who's put up such amazing stats, and been a fucking demon on the floor, and look at a handful of games where his team lost in the playoffs even though he put up good numbers, and say "Well, obviously this guy is shit". Even if he is an annoying fucking little dickbag asshole. As a basketball player, he's as good as any point guard besides Magic, Stockton, and Oscar Robertson.

Also, man, the Clippers really had Jamal Crawford and JJ Reddick on the floor with CP3 for that Rockets game 6 collapse. I'm just not sure we've really considered how flawed those Clippers teams have been. And how flawed the coaching has been. Maybe the real villain in CP3's career has been Doc Rivers (and whoever the GM was in New Orleans I guess).
>>
>>77628561
But Lonzo isn't athletic, and is also bad at getting buckets outside of transition, so ???

Lonzo is definitely a better passer than Simmons though. But Kendall Marshall is also a better passer than Simmons and see where that got him.
>>
>>77628980
How are you going to give Westbrook credit for making the WCF and the Finals when he had his ass dragged there by Kevin Durant? When did Westbrook ever win 60 games as the best player on his team?

the revisionist history here is sickening
>>
>>77629081
No one said he dragged that team by himself and no one revised history, the fact is Chris Paul doesn't have better winning achievements as listed and to say Westbrook was dragged by a single player is beyond revisionist history and shows you're underaged.
>>
>>77620554
if you want him to break his own ankles
>>
>>77629037
The problem is CP3 legitimately makes mistakes in crucial situations towards the end of games, along with his teammates and coaches.

It's a mixed bag and complicated, really he just shouldn't have gone to the Clippers and Doc shouldn't have been the GM.
>>
>>77629120
all we know is that Russell Westbrook has never reached the WCF without Kevin Durant, and neither has CP3. You can shit on CP3 all you want for that, but you can't give Russ credit for having the opportunity to be the Robin to an infinitely superior player's Batman, an opportunity which he then threw away through his own selfishness. Fuck Russell Westbrook.
>>
Are there any players that are offense babbies?
>>
>>77629174
I'm sorry but the Clippers were very talented and actually had better talent overall during their best years yet always choked, even in the year when OKC and the Spurs were injured and/or out of the playoffs.

They had their shot and blew it. Chris Paul's greatest achievements happened when his best teammates where prime David West and Tyson Chandler with the Hornets, went to 7 games with the Spurs, and lost in the WCSF.

It's all about the team and how you work together and Chris Paul in my opinion never let his teammates reach their full potential or put the ball in their hands to win games and be great because he was too busy controlling everything, setting up every play, and being a "point god" when it really had no way of working or pushing them above their competition.

Batman and Robin allegory is childish as fuck and retarded, has no place in an actual discussion, and is unrealistic.
>>
Choke Paul sucks, lol
>>
>>77629256
I don't even really disagree that much honestly. I just think that most of the things that you list there apply equally as much to Westbrook as they do to CP3. He's also a control freak who never lets his teammates reach their full potential or put the ball in their hands to win games. He just had the luck of being on the same team with KD who - as much as anyone can say that they hate him - is an unbelievably good basketball player who is better than either Russ or CP3. And better than Blake and Deandre as well.

And I don't agree that the Clippers had more talent than any of the KD/Russ teams. Just by virtue of not having KD.

If you think that CP3 sucks, fine, that's a very reasonable position, he definitely has his flaws. but Russ is not the example of the guy who's better than him.

>>77629174
To be honest, KD had a chance to win a round on his own. In fact, in 2013 when Westbrook got knocked out by virtue of one Patrick Beverly, he struggled to close out Houston. The game Westbrook was injured in proceeded to go to Houston. And OKC lost the game after that. Durant after two games on his own finally closed out the first round.

And then the Memphis series came along to show KD that he couldn't get it done on his own like he thought he could. In fact, he proceeded to get worse as the series went on. The final two games, his shooting was 10/27 and 5/21 respectively. KD isn't that great of a competitor when he's leading on his own either.

He joined a team with three other all-stars for that purpose, so he could make his ring easier. It's a decision we can deal with, but it's still quite a sell-out one IMHO. If you had that same team down 3-1, you could've closed out that deal instead of dribbling the ball for 20 seconds and bricking a shot or shoving it to Westbrook.

I'm amazed that of all people who watched that match, many won't even point that out.

Chris Paul gets exposed every playoffs. He gets outplayed by every all-star level PG he ever faces in the playoffs. Westbrook has been outplayed by his counterpart in one or two playoff series but not almost every time in his career. Chris Paul has had an admirable career but Westbrook will be considered better than him and probably should be.

He had his chance in the WCSF but couldn't even guard his own position with Westbrook, what makes you think his defense could take on a SF in his prime? Take the rose tinted glasses off
>>
>>77632633
Yeah he's retarded enough not to take any shots in an entire half commit the worst choke by a a single player ever and be a complete and total joke also Lmao he's disastrous on defense and has been his entire career and CP3 is a fucking retard that can't pick shit apart >>77629735

Comparing Harden and CP3 to Curry and KD is unimaginably dumb. It's one of the dumbest things I ever heard. Unbelievable. You all have lost your goddamn minds

Also, Tupac is alive in Cuba

KD is already the third greatest small forward ever. Steph is already the second greatest point guard ever. Crazy when you think about it.

>>77636691
I really think we're going to look back in 5 years and think it was completely crazy that Jayson Tatum went before Josh Jackson and Jonathan Isaac. I really think there's a very high probability that both of those guys end up being better than Tatum.

>>77636722
I would argue that Steph's best seasons are better than CP3's best seasons, though, and that's even before you get into the CP3 playoffs conversation. I think there's a legitimate peak versus longevity argument to be had but I don't think someone is objectively wrong to say that Steph > CP3. It depends on what you value. But if Steph can keep this up for a few more years, at a certain point he's just better. The idea of ranking Russ above Steph is already so insane that I'm not even going to respond to it.

Also, Oscar Robertson is an egregious omission from this list. He has to be considered one of the top 5 point guards of all time, wherever you want to rank him. The dude was absurd.

No shit. CP3 has 4 more NBA seasons over SC30, 4 more postseasons, 5 more all star games, 2 more all NBA first teams, a rookie of the year title. But SC30 is already about to surpass CP3 in these stats, hell, he's already putting up stats per game that are in his favor when making 1 on 1 comparisons on SC30 and CP3 such as:
>FG%
SC30: .476
CP3: .473
>3PT%
SC30: .438
CP3: .370
>FT%
SC30: .901
CP3: .866
>PPG
SC30: 26.2
CP3: 21.4
>RPG
SC30: 5.1
CP3: 4.7

DON'T @ ME CHRIS PAIL APOLOGISTS
>>
>>77636722
CP3's career numbers are never made it past the second round, never played against and teams that were good, which inflate his playoff stats, and has always been knocked out the playoffs by teams that never went to the Finals and only twice was knocked out by a team that went on to go to the WCF, which was the Rockets, who they had a lead against, but committed one of the worst chokes in history. And the Thunder, who they had a lead against, but he personally committed one of the worst chokes in history up 5 points with 17 seconds left on the clock.

CP3's playoff stats mean nothing, his regular season stats are all he has in life, and even then, being a over controlling midget floor general to inflate your assists doesn't make you a great PG.

Ranking CP3 top 5 is a fucking joke.
>>
>>77636912
We already knew we were going to send D leaguers so it's not surprising.
>>
The amount of talent that's being added to the league right now, when you look at the guys from the last couple drafts and this upcoming class, just the 5-year run from 2014 to 2018, is amazing. Just amazing. The league is going to be so good.

>>77636932
I like Chris Paul and it's still pretty ludicrous to say he's better than Steph
>>
New Suns jerseys fucking suck.

Nike sucks.

NBA once again fucks something simple up.

I do think CP3 is better than Nash and Kidd, though

He averaged 30 points and a near triple double some other years.

Oh wait, Westbrook has already done this.
>>
>>77636999
looks good to me. at least they dont have ads
>>
>>77637120
That's pretty much all his did basketball wise.
Only thing he has about Westbrook is one ring which he got in the later part of his career being carried by Kareem.

He's done some historical things off the field, like civil rights, suing the NBA to allow free agency. So he's a legend. But what Westbrook has done, in a slower paced NBA era, with more elite skilled talent, more NBA teams, with 20-30 less possessions by average, is more impressive. And Westbrook's got 5 years left at least.
>>
Westbrook has a >20% of winning a ring in OKC. T.B.H. I don't think he'll get one
>>
>>77637194
Obviously it's difficult to compare across eras and I'm not denying that. At the same time, unless you're going to completely Oscar's stats, I think he was better. I think he was a better scorer, for one thing, and probably a better defender overall. And he was definitely more dominant relative to his era.

I think Russ has had 3 seasons where he's been on the same level that Oscar was at for most of his career. If Russ keeps it up, then we'll see.
>>
>>77637268
Oscar wasn't dominant, he never won a ring until he got a dominant big man because that's how the NBA was back then, it was all about centers. Wilt himself couldn't win even with Jerry West and Elgin Baylor who was averaging 40ppg and more dominant than Oscar ever was because the Celtics were just that good.

Oscars' won of the best point guards ever but compared to his own peers at the time he was never dominant.

Seems like Giannis only ever wore Kobe X low's for the last two years, refused to wear any other shoe Nike gave him. Including special All Star game shoes. He just likes the Kobe X low's and nothing else.

>In between stints winning titles with the Detroit Pistons and Chicago Bulls, Dennis Rodman was a San Antonio Spur. This was the pre-Tim Duncan Spurs, led by David Robinson, and is back when Gregg Popovich was a front office executive, not the coach.

>It was also the time Rodman started to let his wild side show. It’s when he started dying his hair different colors throughout the season, the tattoos and piercings started to come out, and Rodman began to “be himself.” That led to clashes with Popovich, who was the GM Rodman’s second season with the Spurs.

>Rodman does not have fond memories of Popovich, something he told Joe Buck on Buck’s interview show “Undeniable” (hat tip San Antonio Express News).

>“The city kind of embraced me, but what’s his name, Popovich, he hated me,” Rodman said. “He hated my guts because I wasn’t a bible guy. They looked at me like I was the devil.”…

>While on the show, Rodman complained that he felt like a victim during his latter stages in San Antonio. He remained on the team until he was traded to the Chicago Bulls for Will Perdue after the 1995 playoffs.

>“I said my god,” Rodman said. “Am I the same guy that helped get David Robinson a scoring title and MVP? Am I the same guy that averaged 19.3 rebounds per game for you. And I the same guy we won 68 damn games? Am I that same guy, but you guys don’t like me?” Rodman said. “So I said, ‘OK, trade me,'” he said. “They traded me to the damn Bulls.”

Westbrook and George worked out together for the first time today according to ESPN, at UCLA as well as other Thunder teammates. Thunder staff members including GM Sam Presti and Head Coach Billy Donovan were in LA yesterday for Paul George's first annual celebrity fishing tournament. Westbrook held his annual team training trip previously in the off season but Paul George could not attend due to a pre planned vacation in Europe.

>>77637902
I think NBA players probably think of the question in terms of "which player do I least want to be guarded by" which isn't necessarily the same as "who is the most valuable defensive player"

I agree that Kawhi is a better on-ball defender than Draymond but i still think Draymond is better overall
>>
>>77639277
Defensive player of the year isn't most valuable you fucking retard it's MVP. DPOTY is supposed to go to the best defender. You're retarded as fuck.

he's not as good of an on-ball defender as Kawhi but he is a better defender overall because he is better at doing other things on defense
