NBA Chatter Thread

I forgot Steve Nash did that.

Great job, Cuban. :doh

Dr. J won three consecutive ABA MVPs (1974–1976) and was named the 1981 NBA MVP, making him the only player to earn regular-season MVP honors in both leagues.

I was just messing with ya. And I don't appreciate you throwing facts at me. It’s very rude.

I was so mad they let him go to Phoenix

Same here.

Cuban also let Jalen Brunson go to the Knicks. Mavs could've signed him to a very affordable extension, 4 years $55 million. Instead they let him walk and he instantly turns into an All-NBA guard in NY.

It annoys me that practically everyone defaults to Jordan and LeBron whenever an NBA GOAT debate breaks out.

Kareem absolutely deserves to be in that discussion. His resume is arguably better than LeBron's.

No De'Aaron Fox tonight for the Spurs. Dylan Harper getting the start.

Harper's been really good during the playoffs so I don't expect much drop off with the starting unit. It's the second unit where we may see some slippage from the Spurs.
 
Oh, and for the record, I fucking hate Rodman. I think he's a piece of shit human being.
 


I wasn't sure about Wemby when he first entered the NBA because he was hurt a lot, but he has really come on in the last few years.

There's a better argument for LeBron at 3 than at 1, that's for sure.

And speaking of GOAT conversations, if Wemby can stay healthy for 12-15 years I think he'll definitely be in the conversation.

A 7-4 guy who can rack up 10 blocks in a playoff game and also hit a pull up 3 5 feet behind the line to tie it up with 20 seconds left is absolutely absurd.

He is so awkward when he moves. Probably adds to how good he is with the results that he is getting.

You're probably right. I don't follow basketball closely enough to know who would be a good hire, but Kidd was given plenty of time and just didn't show enough progress.
