Looool now I've heard it all. Russ had his worst season last year

by Art Morte Sat Feb 29, 2020 8:21 pm

Stephen Curry has been determined and preparing to play on March 1, but sides determined Friday that he will not return Sunday vs. Wizards. Warriors want Curry to have more practice time and target return is uncertain, sources say.

Curry delaying coming back, how surprising x)

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Sat Feb 29, 2020 8:26 pm

Sounds like the same issue we had with Zion, because of the NBA schedule there's barely any time to practice and thus you can't get many 5 v 5 full contact scrimmages in.

Both of them are awesome. Look what they're doing with OKC

It's easy to say that now when PG has missed games but PG was top 3 in MVP last year.

Nobody was making this argument last season.

I agree. I wasn't making a comment on the trade. I was more commenting on just how great Danilo and SGA have been, and how at the moment it could be arguable having those two would be better.

82 game schedule is absolute cancer and I'll never stop saying it.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Sat Feb 29, 2020 9:25 pm

I don't have a massive issue with the schedule, what i do have a problem with is back to backs.

I would like them to be completely eliminated, if the schedule has to be shortened then so be it but the crux of my main problem is back to backs.

Great Leader Sprucenuce wrote:Westbrook was nowhere near him last year lol, I'm not arguing this with you as you clearly have some sort of agenda against him like with the Kawhi is overrated take.

I just need to point out that he was much better than Westbrook last year, also from the names he finished in front of only the Golden State duo had a case.

Show me where I said Westbrook should be above him in rankings.

And he was clearly better than Westbrook, until February. Then he was bad the rest of the year.

Westbrook still was an incredible playmaker and he’s clearly underrated.

But yeah, I have a clear agenda against every single player in the league. It’s the same argument against my opinion every time lol. Despite me saying Harden, Curry and Durant should be over him.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Sat Feb 29, 2020 9:36 pm

Nope just in these two situations.

I haven't said it for anything else, at least not in recent memory.

Also you called him OKCs 2nd best player, who else are you referring to? Steven Adams hmm

Westbrook had been better every season they’ve both been in the league except four months of last season.

A incredible hot streak makes him (PG) more valuable for a team during that season, but doesn’t make him a better player than Westbrook.

Oh you mean overall, that's fine.

Surprised Lebron is playing tonight btw, considering you have us tomorrow i was expecting him to rest tonight and play tomorrow.

Playing both games seems overly risky.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Sun Mar 01, 2020 8:33 pm

Tonight will show the Lakers true intentions, after last nights distinct lack of effort if they come out tonight with effort it proves they want Memphis in the playoffs.

Would be an incredible hustle

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Sun Mar 01, 2020 9:15 pm

Lul I'm not going to overreact yet, but if Lebron puts up 40 again it basically confirms his intentions imo.

I almost respect it tbh.

Why would they fear NOLA hmm

They’re a 4th/5th seed

Shake Milton

What a name

It's not they fear us, it's that they'd much rather not face us than face the Grizzlies.

Obviously they're not a young team so the easier the path the better.

They're gonna win against 8th seed regardless but we'll make then work for it more than any other team will.

by Freeza Mon Mar 02, 2020 2:04 am

Bradley Beal must be the most underrated star player in this league lol.

by Freeza Mon Mar 02, 2020 3:21 am

Lakers: 6 FTs
Pelicans: 29 FTs

24-9 in fouls. What in the world

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Mon Mar 02, 2020 3:32 am

Pretty obvious why.

In any case it's a shame Ingram and Jrue played like hot trash tonight.

Lonzo and Zion only ones to show up.

Makes sense i suppose. The former Laker boys will want to play lights out to prove a point.

Just realised that Doncic is shooting only 31.5% from the three this season, almost nine attempts per game. Trying too hard to be Harden?

It’s not holding them back at all. They’ve got the best offense in the league. Keep doing it.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Mar 03, 2020 1:45 pm

He takes really difficult shots, it doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Wed Mar 04, 2020 3:18 am

This is over we're not making the playoffs, the main reason why it was still a possibility was because we have a very soft schedule and we've beaten up bad teams for last 2 months.

But we played as bad as we have defensively since the 13 game losing streak tonight so none of it matters anymore.

by El Gunner Wed Mar 04, 2020 8:17 am

Meanwhile recent form has shown Luke Walton and his Kings are the Grizzlies' biggest challengers hmm
