Hmm Canelo won that too

[tall temple]

[smoky fable]

okc's got no one

[tall temple]

at least they have lu dort whos good defensively

[trim aurora]

U think it’s gonna end with points?

[celest zephyr]

Most likely

[trim aurora]

Hmm

[celest zephyr]

Sanders has a strong spirt

sixers fans probably happy now

So I doubt it would be a stoppage unless it was a straight knockout

nets in shambles

[dim kettle]

You know Curry has been owning the Thunder since this play.

[celest zephyr]

That clip would never get old

[smoky fable]

just shooting it over roberson

[dim kettle]

You know what also never get's old seeing?

[celest zephyr]

😂

I respect Sanders has the audacity to continue talking shit as he gets picked apart

[tall temple]

ah yes, johnny flynn (if thats even his name) the legend

how do you pick two point guards and not get a superstar

[smoky fable]

Round 7 0:22

[celest zephyr]

I might give Sanders this round

It’s 6-1

[smoky fable]

nuggets depth is just totally being tested with this line up

injuries just show there

[trim aurora]

Why so Vyrez?

[trim aurora]

:/

[celest zephyr]

Damn that eye was unopenable

[trim aurora]

Bummer

[celest zephyr]

Yeah I guess Sanders wanted to play it smart and assumed

[smoky fable]

yeah Canelo would have won

[celest zephyr]

He didn’t stand a chance with one eye

Damn I can’t believe Sanders went out like that

I would be lying if I said that wasn’t disappointing

[trim aurora]

That’s so sad, like, he could’ve made a comeback

[smoky fable]

yeah it was a disappointing ending

[trim aurora]

Yeah

[celest zephyr]

Exactly

And who knows, for all we know the judges had Sanders up

But I guess Canelo knew himself the fight was in the book

[trim aurora]

Yeah we never know

[celest zephyr]

When he saw the eye and was excited

Shame

[trim aurora]

It’s crazy cuz it came out of nowhere really

[celest zephyr]

That is like the 9th boxer to lose their undefeated record to Canelo now

Crazy

[trim aurora]

Damn

[celest zephyr]

Canelo unfortunately really is the pound for pound king

Shame it ended like that

Still surprised Sanders played it smart

I always assumed he would go out there until he was unconscious

[tall temple]

canelo won?

[celest zephyr]

Yeah

[tall temple]

damn

nets take the lead

😳

and then a off foul on mpj

can campazzo not take shots and give the ball to jokic and let him go to work?

[celest zephyr]

tbf he's actually been hitting them

[smoky fable]

1 point game

[trim aurora]

Saunders’ eye got swollen

[celest zephyr]

this game

[tall temple]

[smoky fable]

Can't believe the Nets came back

Griffin hitting those shots helped though

[tall temple]

malone got vlatko cancar and bol bol playing big minutes

LMFAO

[celest zephyr]

Damn how did the nets do that

looks like injuries

gordon and millsap didn't play

[smoky fable]

Jazz, Blazers, and warriors all take key wins for their playoff seeding

[smoky fable]

how did the BP give up that much

[celest zephyr]

they are the worst team in the league for a reason

[dim kettle]

Half of the BP is injured to shit.

[smoky fable]

oh yeah that's right

Glad they got 14 runs

[smoky fable]

Also what happened to the Padres? They started worse than I expected

[tall temple]

oh wow the angles scored 8

They faced the Dodgers multiple times.

they aren't holding back

[smoky fable]

1 point game

damn

Jokic missed both attempts

[tall temple]

yeah this game is over

[smoky fable]

still a 1 point game

not impossible

[tall temple]

like why did they just sub out MPJ AND JOKIC

MIKE MALONE

[smoky fable]

yeah

why did they sub him out?

This game isn't over

Who is Vlatko Cancar???

[tall temple]

i dont even know

[smoky fable]

oh they're in foul trouble that's why

[tall temple]

jokic only has 3

[smoky fable]

MPJ

[tall temple]

mpj has 5 yeah

[smoky fable]

three point game

[celest zephyr]

Damn what a comeback

[tall temple]

fucking denver nuggets

they really let brooklyn get back in the game with the Campazzo-Vlako Cancar - Shaquille Harrison - Markus Howard - McGee lineup

[smoky fable]

just have no depth

[celest zephyr]

what is jokic doing lol

[smoky fable]

it's that bad

[celest zephyr]

i mean its injuries also

[smoky fable]

implied that

but yes

[tall temple]

jump ball.

[smoky fable]

game

[celest zephyr]

but yeah they don't have a ton of depth either

[tall temple]

denver shitters

[smoky fable]

nets won

[tall temple]

i can't believe it

[smoky fable]

put more pressure on the sixers now

And Clippers are more comfortable at the 3 seed

[celest zephyr]

the clippers are better than the nuggets at this point lol

[smoky fable]

Jokic with the tech

wow

[celest zephyr]

didn't expect jokic to suck in the clutch though

[smoky fable]

Jokic got pissed with the refs

[tall temple]

tbf the refs weren't calling fouls when there was a good deal of contact

[smoky fable]

thought he got fouled throughout the game apparently

[celest zephyr]

he does get fouled a ton though

[tall temple]

last 5 pts for the nets have been FT's all from KD

[smoky fable]

Griffin got fouled on the other end at times, but they've just let them play surprisingly.

refs you suck chant

Dodgers better not blow this game

[tall temple]

going to sleep depressed tonight

because the denver nuggets cant hold a lead

[celest zephyr]

they also blew one against the nets before

[smoky fable]

Nets break their losing streak

[celest zephyr]

man at this point the nuggets might need to fire malone

[smoky fable]

Nuggets continue to blow games

[celest zephyr]

like that lineup was awful

[tall temple]

terrible coaching to begin the 4th

why are you playing BOL BOL?

in a serious game

[celest zephyr]

they also need to feed mpj more lmao

[smoky fable]

were the other big men hurt?

[celest zephyr]

might as well let him develop

[smoky fable]

I thought you said Millsap and Gordon was hurt?

[celest zephyr]

they didnt play yeah

[smoky fable]

Or was it Malone thinking the game was over?

[celest zephyr]

huh millsap just got benched it looks like

gordon is injured

[tall temple]

millsap got injured

[smoky fable]

Watching a replay, campazzo bailed out Jokic since it looks like he threw the ball at a ref but Campazzo intercepted it.

Safe to say that Jokic is pissed off

[celest zephyr]

ah lmao

[tall temple]

yep lmfao

he knew it was coming

[celest zephyr]

jokic should just focus on the game

a ton of players get a ton of contact and don't get calls

[tall temple]

huge game for the nuggets and jokic just cant convert

anything

0/5 from three

[smoky fable]

that Murray injury crippled them

[tall temple]

didn't they go 9-1 or something after he went out?

[smoky fable]

it's showing up now

Rakitic has a bigger Barca legacy than Roberto

[sweet tree]

tbf rakitic would always show up in el clasico just like suarez lol

anyways, can't even predict who'll win la liga. all 3 teams simply choking

[restive sundial]

barcas remaining fixtures are comparatively easier

[sweet tree]

yeah that's true

still, I guess you never know since I thought we would've won against granada

we've had some easier sides we lost which should've not happened

hard to say

[restive sundial]

yeah

[gloomy meadow]

My blood boils

We could've been so many points clear before even meeting Atletico

Drew to Eibar and Alaves too

Ffs

Didn't even get a single win vs Cadiz una

Finish me already

[sweet tree]

LOL

I remember the first match vs cadiz

nah early in the season

[gloomy meadow]

[sweet tree]

the defensive errors were at an all time high

https://youtu.be/dSVFeTEnSMg

that 2nd goal from cadiz

joke club

[gloomy meadow]

The player with the most direct errors leading to an opposition goal and penalty conceded across the top 5 leagues is Clement Lenglet

He's statistically the worst defender in the top 5 leagues

Do you know how bad of a defender do you have to be that even statistics label you the worst for a position which cannot even be quantified

141_DEC _slot3 is the Rays ultimate weapon.

It's so us Rays fans can't see our batters strike out.

[smoky fable]

they won this game so it wasn't a bad day for them

[dim kettle]

The Rays had the bases loaded in the 9th with no outs and choked that away yesterday. Kinda been the story of the Rays bats this year besides against the Yankees and Angels.

[hazy jacinth]

Bro they losing this game to the suns unless d book chokes or something

Like wtf

Why he saving himself

[tall temple]

need to stop giving these guys so much power

next thing you know they're going to votekick a player from the league

[honest umbra]

hey where’s Lebron?

[smoky fable]

how many games do the sixers need to clinch the 1st seed?

[tall temple]

two or three,

[smoky fable]

makes sense

[tall temple]

if we win both against the magic, but lose both against the pacers and heat, we'll still be in front of the bucks

even if they win all their games

the nets have 4 games left, if they win all 4 they'll be 48-24 which would still not be enough for the first seed

[hazy jacinth]

This man Bron saving himself to not make the playoffs

They're getting us soft as MLB umps.

Short version, they didn't try to tank either and were doing better at tanking.

[hazy jacinth]

Yh

Idek about Drummond tbh

I haven’t watched him play my self

[dim kettle]

You gonna leave the arena early when the Heat look like they're gonna lose again?

[hazy jacinth]

How does Drummond gel with Bron and ad

Oh lol

[smoky fable]

the David Stern vetoed trade

yeah

[hazy jacinth]

Yh

[smoky fable]

but they can use him

[hazy jacinth]

They owned the team

And wanted to have assets that made it appealing to purchase

[haughty moss]

then 6 days later sent to clippers

fuck the league lol

[hazy jacinth]

Fr

[haughty moss]

haters

[dim kettle]

Then you tried Dwight and Nash. MAH SUPER TEAM

[smoky fable]

it all went downhill from there till Lebron arrived

[haughty moss]

[dim kettle]

I'll tell you. The moment Dwight got traded was probably one of the darkest days as a sports fan of my life.

[hazy jacinth]

Lmao

[smoky fable]

I remember that Stan Van Gundy interaction

[smoky fable]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y08gvGpGCwA&ab_channel=ybrekyert

[dim kettle]

Dwight was the reason I became a basketball fan and he took my passion for it with it.

[dim kettle]

[smoky fable]

Maybe the Magic get lucky with the lottery this time

[dim kettle]

We got lucky with Victor Oladipo. And then we traded him for peanuts. Like, fuck this team sometimes.

[smoky fable]

Yeah the Ibaka trade didn't work out at all

He didn't want to be there.

[haughty moss]

Well the Bucs are great now 😁

[dim kettle]

Yeah, just took 15 years.

[smoky fable]

a repeat coming?

Or will the Chiefs come back

[dim kettle]

I'm hoping. But I don't believe in BS hype from ESPN.

[smoky fable]

They'll win the division though. Saints got worse.

[dim kettle]

Never underestimate that division. There's always one surprise coming out of the NFC South.

[smoky fable]

Maybe the Falcons. But I think Arthur Smith needs some time for his offense to be established

I don't have much faith in Darnold elevating that Panthers team. But they built a good team.

[dim kettle]

I feel the Falcons are not gonna be good, But not that bad either to get a good draft pick. So pretty much like any other typical Falcons team.

[simple seal]

He's hurting right?

[smoky fable]

Yeah he's out with an injury Hog

[smoky fable]

Think they sneak in as a wildcard potentially. His arm hasn't degraded like Ben's or Brees, so he's got a few years left. I trust the defense to be serviceable.

Think Julio leaves before Ryan

[dim kettle]

The team hasn't learned anything from the past 18 years. The Falcons seriously don't know what a full rebuild is.

[smoky fable]

Fair enough

[dim kettle]

The Falcons don't look to ever be SB contenders. They'd rather be "competitive"

The T-Wolves have already scored 70 at the end of the 2nd quarter.

Play-in scenarios for LAL compared to Portland:

• If POR (currently 6th and holding the tiebreaker) goes 4-0 or 3-1, they lock up the 6 regardless of LAL results.
• If POR goes 2-2, LAL have to go 5-0.
• If POR goes 1-3, LAL have to go 4-1.
• If POR goes 0-4, LAL have to go 3-2.

we're def 7th seed

but our schedule is tough

could totally see a 1-3

lets go suns!

lets go suns!

i kinda want the 7th seed now

no cap

its a bit risky but a better long term investment

than 6th seed anyways

it is yeah

but like, I just want the security lol

Twitter · May 10, 2021, 3:08 AM

[native sonnet]

Damn Lakers beat the Suns.

[hardy wharf]

AD did his thing

Hats off to him

[dim kettle]

AD did learn the art of carrying the teams he played on in NO.

[native sonnet]

I still stand by that I feel bad for whichever team gets the Lakers in the first round. They are still a really good team. Injuries just screwed them up. Especially AD dude is always a slow starter.

[dim kettle]

Well, that would imply that those teams had any chance of getting passed the 2nd round at best in the first place. Might as well lose to the Lakers for a quick death.

[native sonnet]

Also Drummond was a terrible signing. Dude is a bad player.

[dim kettle]

Seems to be a running theme with former Piston players.

[native sonnet]

Blake is pretty decent.

[smoky fable]

Suns will be fine. Lakers got points from the others and Davis carried.

Confident with the chances of the fully healthy Lakers against the field. Just hope AD and Lebron are healthy.

[proud coyote]

you betrayed us suns :(

[smoky fable]

Rockets should be an easy victory for Portland tomorrow

It’ll be close

[honest umbra]

I have been hoping and wishing For the Lakers health all season

And it hasn’t happened so far

But I have no doubts that if healthy, this team can go toe to toe with anyone and win

And going against the Suns for the Lakers might be preferable than the Jazz or Clippers or Nuggets

The rest of team have playoff experience amongst other pieces that make it a bit tougher

Vogel just needs to figure out his lineups like rn though

[hardy wharf]

He needs to figure something out for Drummond bro

[honest umbra]

As sad as it may be, Drummond might need to be benched for playoffs lol

Dude missed a layup underneath the basket uncontested

He’s a good big body presence but has such slippery hands

I’d want 15 mins max from him to offensive rebound and create hard fouls

Marc Gasol coming in is literally creating runners and opening so much

[native sonnet]

Drummond exists so Gasol can rest. That's it.

[smoky fable]

Drummond’s the player opposing teams want to see on the court.

Front runners in the west are still the Clippers probably. They probably won’t choke like last time.

[smoky fable]

That’s not terrible

[haughty moss]

yeah agree I like this year's draft

[smoky fable]

At least you didn’t draft busts

[dim kettle]

Yeah, but the Magic could've pushed a little to get Young or Luka.

[rustic ore]

Wanted Trae Young so damn bad

Now he's one of the best Guards in the game

[smoky fable]

Got picked one spot above

Couldn’t do anything about it

[dim kettle]

Except the Magic GM did nothing to try to trade up.

[smoky fable]

Which was his mistake

[dim kettle]

Every Magic fan wanted Trae Young and we got a big man who barely got to play till now because of our new HC at that time.

[smoky fable]

But they might have gotten outbid or the hawks weren’t listening

[dim kettle]

John Hammond said nothing about trying to trade up though. They just sat there and hoped for the best. smh

John really looked at D. J. Augustin and said, "That's our starting PG."

[smoky fable]

A good backup point guard, but not the starter

[rustic ore]

Cunningham, Suggs, and Green are my dream wish list

Be over the moon to get any of them

[dim kettle]

BuT wE nEeD mOrE bIg MeN!

[smoky fable]

Now watch as the lottery doesn’t go your way.

[dim kettle]

Basically.

[smoky fable]

Just a night where Mark Tatum basically crushes hopes and dreams.

[dim kettle]

Central Florida teams always seem to get lucky with the lottery once in a while. Magic or Bolts.

At least we won't have the pain Knick fans had with Zion.

[smoky fable]

Barrett was a nice consolation prize though

[celest zephyr]

Yeah he has been amazing this season

this season almost makes you forget about the Knicks turmoil 😂

[dim kettle]

For a year or two before Dolan ruins it again.

[smoky fable]

It seems inevitable

[haughty moss]

with the #9 pick, the magic select ________

[dim kettle]

Corey Kispert

[celest zephyr]

[dim kettle]

I forgot we have the Bulls pick too.

[haughty moss]

yep

[celest zephyr]

well the celtics got hit hard

[smoky fable]

Final nail in the coffin for the Celtics

Won't do anything in the playoffs

[celest zephyr]

celtics are becoming pretty disappointing

[hazy jacinth]

well the celtics finna miss the playoffs lol

[haughty moss]

damnnn

[hazy jacinth]

this season is interesting

I'm happy AD is back

just waiting for Bron's 'I'm back' moment

[rustic ore]

Isn't it crazy how the Celtics went from one of the most promising teams in the league to utter mediocrity following the Kyrie trade?

As @wojespn reported on SportsCenter, the earliest date that James Harden may return for the Nets is Wednesday against the Spurs — that isn’t a certainty, but Harden is getting close to returning.

nice

[hazy jacinth]

Lmao fr

[hazy jacinth]

Cool

[celest zephyr]

holy shit

no way

Damn thats heart wrenching for Celtics

[celest zephyr]

no surprise..

its better for them to miss and get a better pick tbh

they can get another guy who can contribute for more depth

[celest zephyr]

I guess, its a shame that they haven't been able to do much recently

[smoky fable]

Injuries hurt them a bit

[tall temple]

this sucks

i got timothy duncan

underrated for some reason

[celest zephyr]

duncan also

he was so skilled

[tall temple]

yeah

shaq is brute force

[rustic ore]

Shaq easily

Love Duncan but prime Shaq was damn near unstoppable

[celest zephyr]

shaq couldn't shoot fts

[tall temple]

well also you could just sag

[rustic ore]

So?

[tall temple]

hard

[celest zephyr]

if he had a good work ethic then probably him

[tall temple]

and you have strategies to stop him, he'd still be averaging what, 20/14 most likely

[celest zephyr]

yeah he wouldn't have range

[tall temple]

duncan is just more mobile and skilled overall

like you have all these stretch fours and fives right now

[celest zephyr]

i'd also question his ability to defend people

[tall temple]

shaq racked up a bunch of techs as well

[honest umbra]

shaq all day anyday

[tall temple]

fate you're biased

[honest umbra]

this is crazy

what

i have to be bias to say i prefer shaq over duncan?

[tall temple]

as a lakers fan you're naturally inclined to pick your own teams players

[honest umbra]

did you even see shaq play in his prime??

[tall temple]

he was unstoppable, i know

[honest umbra]

people really dont know what shaq did in 3 straight finals

i didnt see the question in "todays nba"

but even then, taking shaq

[tall temple]

[honest umbra]

bro them mofo's fouled shaq intentionally becuz they knew if the ball was within 2-3 ft of him

it was going in

also shaq was still lean enough to make those runs for fast breaks

[tall temple]

orlando shaq was

and early lakers
