Bird and Havlicek famously stole balls for Boston in the playoffs. Or are you writing those off as undue Boston homerism?


Durant joining does make them more powerful. Replacing Harrison Barnes with Durant is big. Curry, Klay and Durant can decide between themselves some games to cruise more and take the night off. This will allow them to retain stamina.

I know a lot thought I was joking about championship hunger but it's a real thing and Durant has been accruing it.


If the GSW don't win in 2017 I fear for what big signing they pull off during the summer.


Hopefully within two weeks.

Link me to the poll again I have to take it please

where are you from in Denmark? I've been noticing that the game is getting much more popular in Scandinavia/my friends are playing a lot more often. Would be cool to have some Nordic players in the league in 20 years.

Is it weird that I got into the NBA and finally caved to League Pass because of the social media aspects of it??

I find a lot of the people who cover the NBA are interesting and the "meme" content is really funny (like all the KD switching to a Spurs jersey jokes from last night, and the weird anime cartoons everyone liked last year)

Like, I've quietly read these threads for like 2 years now, and they're among my favorites here to read, you all know whats going on and are funny.

I don't know poo poo about the intricacies of basketball, and I'm going to do my best to figure it out, so I won't contribute much, but thanks for helping me get into it.


(go Kings)

We want to be helpful and make sure everyone has a good time watching the best sport ever created

2k games are good for learning some basic basketball stuff, also for knowing who the players are on every team.

The franchise/front office modes though are not accurate simulations (or at least have not been, I don't play the games now even when they're free because of this but maybe they've finally improved), don't be the guy who played 2k17 and then comes in here talking about the Hard Cap.

What does Steven Adams do really well? I don't mean to be snide, it's just that i've always thought his game is so workmanlike that he just kind of fades into the background until somebody like zach lowe points out that he does X unusually well

His positioning and footwork are good and his passing is evolving. Plus he's 7 foot tall and you can't teach that
