The 2020-21 NBA Thread: Raptors in 7

Only third game of the year and Heat set franchise record with most 3s in a half. Ellington 6-7 from long range. Sheesh.

Simmons triple double. Embiid dropped 30. Got the W.

We in here.

Don’t know if y’all been watching Simmons on League Pass, but dude is so comfortable on the court. You don’t get the slightest bit of rookie angst coming off him. At least a double-double every game.

So apparently Bledsoe actually was 100% in a hair salon when he tweeted. Suns about to give away their best player over it though, lol.

You can’t make this stuff up.

John Wall is gonna make Lonzo his bitch. Its gonna be a slaughter.

I like Wall, but he’s another one that needs to sit down until he at least gets to the ECF. It’s one thing for Beverly and other guys like him to go after Alonzo, but Wall should have bigger fish to fry right now.

Refs couldn’t have made it more obvious that they wanted to fuck us over.

refs love the grizz man. got curry throwing mouthpieces and 50k away.

shit like… at this point its like they don’t care. next you’ll see one of them throw an oop to gasol mid-game.

They seem to be playing much better without him.

Dami heard Carlisle was mad lol

even if Gordon got a three there they’d still be down by 1…and refs didn’t have anything to do w the double digit comeback. HOU had em dead in the water but hit a dry spell…20-2 run in the 4th

But fuck it…yeah NBA wants to see Memphis win a championship…82-0…Silver said so

A minute left to play if he makes three so they would just need the stop, instead it went to the clock game which meant advantage Memphis.

Houston haddent necessarily been locking them down hence the comeback. but it coulda been a toss up I’ll give you that …HOUs a good team I’m jist still a little triggered by the dumb asses that actually think the GSW game was rigged…now this…

I won’t say anything about the GS game since I didn’t watch it but the refs sucked balls in this game for both sides. But that negligence with a minute left is infuriating, especially considering that the offensive flow had been non existent for both side due to the whistles. Eeh I’ll get over it but the league better man up and say we fucked up with this guy because that’s not a good look.

I’m glad the Suns won but man, they torpedoed Bledsoe’s trade value with how well they did without him.

Yo what if this Mike James dude becomes a Kurt Warner “rags to riches” story and turns out to be exactly what the Suns needed to rope all of those scorers together!?

Remember that Bledsoe for Love trade the Suns turned down, good times.

You should watch some of the games he played in Euroleague. Dude can ball.

Ahh the classic genetics > willpower reasoning.
Lot of athletes go through that.

Story like this, Darius Miles, and Jamarcus Russell make me angry. These guys could have been something special but instead they choose be lazy fucks doing the bare minimum to con people into giving them money and then sitting on it.
