very nice. when he plays point guard and doesn't pass that's klownball for sure

Sochan playing pg and not passing to wemby and getting 99 turnovers is also pretty klownish, but lacks the buckets that make klownballing such a special thing

am i missing something about the draft kings (r) in season cup?

it says first tie breaker is head to head record in the group stage, second is point differential, etc. why bother even having anything more than the first tie breaker? each team only plays each other one time and basketball doesn’t have ties. it’s 100% guaranteed that it can’t go past the first tie break

yeah for example in East C the Sixers most realistic chance to win the group involves Atlanta winning out, the Pacers beating Detroit, and Philly beating Cleveland

All three teams would be 3-1 with a fun little "recycle icon of parity" (ATL > IND, IND > PHL, PHL > ATL) so it would come down to differential (meaning they need to beat Cleveland by a good amount)

Tournament should include more teams next year. Maybe byes for group winners, since you're just making up the missed games anyhow. I like the tourny so far but needs more chaos.

The eyesore courts are a good start, but they need to go beyond just visual distractions. Add city-themed hazards like a mario kart level. New orleans can have a brass band that marches around, utah should have annoyingly polite missionaries trying to talk to players while they shoot free throws, etc

Two courts aligned as a cross with two pairs of teams playing different games. They have to avoid each other at half court intersection "no mans land" and can try to steal the ball from the other game to achieve a multiball condition. Made bucket resets the ball at the correct court's side out.

I only watched a couple Spurs games so far and thought it was just confirmation bias but I definitely noticed Sochan just refusing to pass to Wemby so I'm glad that it's actually a thing because it's the funniest poo poo

The spurs offense is poo poo rear end but pop seems committed to teaching sochan to be a point guard by throwing him into the deep end

damn i'm really in this bitch

i think having someone learn point guard by passing to the nba’s equivalent of calvin johnson and the two car garage would probably cause him to develop some bad habits

Jonas:
- scores on postups
- rebounds
- plays below the rim
- gets in between offensive players and the rim 

Zion
- scores on drives, cuts, and transition
- plays both above and below the rim
- can play passing lanes
- gets occasional sweet chase down blocks
