Can't believe the regular season starts tonight. Just seemed like the Finals ended a couple weeks ago.

Philly vs Celtics: 6:30PM CST TNT

GSW vs Lakers: 9:00PM CST TNT

Don’t forget the Heat put the Buck’s down in 5 games too, taking two games in Milwaukee. Going into the playoffs the Bucks were a pretty trendy pick to win it all.

The Heat beat down the #1 and #2 seed and some here think they just have a slight chance against the Nuggets.

Because Kobe isn't even close to being the greatest player when he isn't even the greatest player in Lakers history. Kobe is a media creation from playing for the most popular franchise.

Ken pom boy not only lies about ku titles (pathetically adds the fake covid one to totals). I didn't think that level of sadness could be topped. Then he lies about LeBum. Absolutely pathetic

It's awful what happened to him but there's too much revisionist history about his career. He's a top 10 all-time player but he has zero argument for #1. Also forgotten is how selfish a player he was. Those Lakers teams win more titles if not for his attitude.

Argue about their legitimacy all you want, but I'm glad we can at least both agree that both KU and LeBron won titles in 2020. They can't help the fact that the seasons were shortened by something out of their control.

This man is 1 more win away from his second Finals appearance. Kyle Lowry isn’t the same guy he used to be physically, but so many of the intangible things he does on the court are still there. Leading bench units, managing the pace, the swipe-downs on defense, taking the charge.… pic.twitter.com/3kegc5g9Vm

Note also who was #1 on this list by a mile.

KC_Connection · 05-22-2023, 01:05 PM

Marcus Smart apparently said this to the Miami Heat last night:

“We beat y’all last year. We good. Stop talking the whole fucking game.”

Fat **** spends half the game flopping like a beached whale. He and Smart are the two biggest floppers in the league.

Yep and that’s part of why he’s such a pain to play against. Forced Boston to use their challenge in the 1st quarter.

Zach Lowe thinks there is an argument to be made that the Heat are playing better without Tyler Herro

I would agree. You can’t bring that guy back as long as things are going well.
