Official 2016-2017 NBA Season Thread - NBA rules Chris Bosh has a career ending injury

[datznasty]

Yea I was just using a random number as an example. Seems like, and of course I make poverty money so I wouldn't know, it reaches a point or diminishing returns where a person with 300 mil and a person with 325 mil, probably live similar lifestyles. And of course in their case they'd be paying that 25mil difference for the sake of this example, to be on a better team or in a better market or to have a chance to win a title

i can see PG being one of the superstars who forgoes a huge extension to leave his team

Can we talk about why Thomas Robinson can't land a good role on a good or bad team.

The guy does it all, and well, pretty effortlessly.

He needs 27mpg somewhere man, for real.

He is a 6'5 hustle man.

Why does he need more time?

 

[mgrand15]

Robinson isn't 6'5

He just can't do much outside of rebound and he's undersized for center. He plays hard but there's a lot of simple stuff you need to be able to do to play at the NBA level. He can't do it. Bad hands, can't score outside of dunks, bad FT shooter, poor BBIQ on both ends of the floor.

I meant to bring this up addict4sneakers , but check out Kawhi's numbers compared to KD's numbers with a similar usage rate (over 1/3 of the season in)

Kawhi w/30% USG rate (25 years old)
33.5mpg
24.4ppg
6rpg
3.1apg
2spg

47/40/92 %

KD w/ 29.8% USG rate (24 years old)

KD played 5 more minutes.

PER 36, Kawhi averaging 26.2 compared to KD's 27.5

 

[gentrification]

Wes Johnson is horrid

 

[datznasty]

If Pops Mensa Bonsu can't be in the NBA, neither can TRob

 

[P C H]

Wes Johnson is horrid

On offense this season, yes (although Doc is being ridiculous with his minutes)

On defense? No. He's been a vital cog to some of the Clips best defensive lineups this year. It's lowkey staggering the effect Wes Johnson has on the 2nd unit's defense.

Shy Guy Kawhi.


Second half of the season will be even better from him.

Yo, I was just thinking about Pops the other day.....

 

[a-friend]

you guys wear that shoe out or strictly for basketball?

Sporting Events or mall Pickups( new kicks etc.)

All Star Games.

Season ticket games.

**** like that.

 

[dman14]

thomas robinson is a dud
too unskilled to be a 3 and too small to be a 4
doesnt do anything at a +level in the league

 

[rck3sactown]

don't give up on Throb yet, guys

 

[a-friend]

So about Thomas Robinson, he can't play?

This is what is being said no?

It's a marathon, not a sprint.

What about Zeke and kemba being better than Conley?

 

[DCAllAfrican]

I have hooped with Thomas Robinson

He is at least 2 inches shorter than his listed height.

Like I said, I don't know WHAT you see to suggest he deserves more than 27 MOG.

If anything, that is too much as it is

 

[DCAllAfrican]

If Pops Mensa Bonsu can't be in the NBA, neither can TRob

Pops is 6'7 MAX

 

[antidope]

Really surprised this thread isn't filled with LeBron stats right now.

 

[JD617]

The NFL thread regulars **** on this thread (with good reason sometimes), but the NFL thread might be the worst thing on the internet right now.

 

[addict4sneakers]

This thread only sucks when GS/Cle play really

 

[rck3sactown]

pics or it didn't happen

 

[JD617]

I think it's been a lot better this year than the last 2-3 years.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

I guess it didn't happen then

It really is trash. And they get so defensive about it. I thought I would partake more now that LA has a team but I just can't.

The MLB thread is still my favorite though. I think because baseball is so esoteric on NT it doesn't have as many trolls. It's usually just 10 guys discussing baseball with the occasional JRS anti canadian rants.
