Lol fuck you mean

Dude was called the next steph all season

Ill say it again tho, hes overrated

#YoungBull>

 

[Teagz]

77 is high for him

 

[DJT]

I hope Trae turns out. It would be nice to see him shut up some of the hate.

 

[Mexi]

Idk if yall seen
But noah looking good again
Knicks prolly gonna buy him out, wonder who will snag him in BuyoutSZN

warriors hopefully

Seriously

These kids expect too much. Hasnt even played a real nba game yet

Ill take the L if it happens but doubt it. He’ll be decent but def not “steph 2.0”

warriors hopefully

Chill, hes not a bum. Hes the type of dude to go back to the Bulls over the Warriors

 

[Paulius]

On whether the Warriors are worried about the Lakers: “Teams worry about us. We don’t worry about nobody. We are the champs. Why do we have to worry about anybody? They have to worry about us. They say we are ruining the league. I love it!”


Love and hate Dray, man

 

[Paulius]

Mexi

Surprised you havent mentiond Melton yet

Kid can ball

 

[Paulius]

“A lot of guys dont talk about me being a top 5 PG” - Wall

John trying to stay relevant this summer

 

[Mexi]

And im pretty much nba'd out for now

Did listen to nba xm a little today though lol. Just waiting for media day, a little pre season and perhaps 2k

It’s sad really haha. And I would think he’s more top 10 then top 5.

De’Anthony Melton. Rockets rookie.

And that’s fair but Trae never called himself Steph 2.0. He’s always said he doesn’t want to be Steph he wants to be Trae Young. You can’t blame him for all the stuff media guys say about him.

 

[Paulius]

Houston drafted him, he can ball
Wont be surprised if he becomes CP3s back up sometime during the season


And nah yall just groupme addicts now
It’ll get old tho after a while. Been there

Curry Russ Kyrie CP3 and the last spot either dame or wall. Ill take wall tho, he shows up in the playoffs

And thats exactly my point tho about trae haha. Thats not being “underrated” as hes claiming if the media got him hyped as the next steph

 

[BNC]

Doncic favorited heavily as ROY, ayton second

not sure about that one

Hes either gonna go off right away bc hes that talented or gonna need time to adjust to the nba game. Euroleague game is so different

#YoungBullisComingTho #StayWoker #WCJtoo

And college isn't?

 

[BNC]

I don't think they're that good, sue me.
 
Meanwhile all y'all slobbering over Danny Green like he isn't washed up already. Like I'll give Kawhi the BOTD that he'll come back and be an All Star off his injury (like yall should with Hayward as well) but Toronto lost size with Poeltl gone. I personally thing OG Anunoby is overrated on this site -- he's a good defender but he's hardly a scorer, and he's not All-Defensive Team level yet either. Good young player, but not someone with direct immediate impact
 
Ibaka is getting old as shit (he's probably older than what NBA.com says tbh), I've never liked JV in an offense that wasnt focused on getting him the ball... he'll be better off the bench in more of a scoring role.
 
And yall know I like FVV a lot... I actually think he's the 3rd best player on the Raptors tbh.. but thats the problem in itself. You cant expect to beat Boston 2v5... 

They won 59 games last year with a top 5 defense and top 3 offense and improved. No chance Celtics sweep if both teams are healthy

College or Euroleague, which league is more similar to the NBA?

Big facts

That was a ridiculous take by Bosox

 

[snipezo]

Keep sleeping on Toronto. Kawhi is going to haunt Philly and the perennial east favourites.

no shit. he was a rookie last year. he constantly guarded opposing team's best players every game and did very well doing so. he oozes boat loads of defensive potential.

ACB league competition is so much higher, they have 4 quarters, play with a longer 3 point line than NCAA and have a 24 second shot clock, so I'm gonna go with that
