euphronius posted:everyone agrees draymond is probably a hall of famer. is that not enough? two hall of famers cant make the playoffs? did you see that last shot attempt by draymond in the grizzlies game? he has zero ability to score anymore and without durant/klay teams key on curry like nobody's business. gsw with curry sitting on the bench was maybe the worst offensive team in the entire nba this year that said curry is a lousy defender and made some inexcusable turnovers in the grizzlies game Yossarian-22 fucked around with this message at 19:37 on May 22, 2021 |

indigi posted:curry “has” 1 to be fair, and that was a series where it was LeBron + scrubs and still went to 6. Durant got him the other two, couldn’t even beat Toronto curry smashed okc, which had peak durant, after being down 3-1 and durant's clutch performance was so bad that he joined gsw out of shame gsw was in shambles against toronto. kevon looney and injured demarcus cousins were their second best players at times because iggy/green were often completely useless offensively and klay kept rotating in and out of the lineup, plus they were absolutely shattered by the size of toronto with gasol/siakam/ibaka/leonard down low. curry essentially had to bail them out Yossarian-22 fucked around with this message at 21:50 on May 23, 2021 |

euphronius posted:I mean uh the most valuable player on that team was klay Thompson by a mile  From +19 to -5 https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/t/thompkl01/on-off/2016 From +15 to +2 https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/c/curryst01/on-off/2016 23 point difference vs. 13, and this is maybe Klay's best year. Thompson was barely the third best player on the team considering how good peak Green and peak Iggy were

klay averaged as many turnovers as assists basically. dude made so many stupid to's and could never drive the ball as well as curry. he's also practically a foot bigger and somehow less of a rebounder

for some reason ayton has never attempted more than 2 free throws per game in a season over his three year career whereas davis averages 6-8 routinely. i guess he's unusually bad at "drawing contact" or something? needs to take acting lessons like the rest of the league

with jamal murray/cp3 getting injured and the clippers stinking it the gently caress up i honestly think the jazz are probably the only team with a real shot of beating the lakers in the west. the east is way more interesting this year with the bucks/76ers/nets all in it lakers/nets has an aura of inevitability to it and the jazz remind me of the 2002 kings where they probably are the best overall team in the west but will somehow get screwed over by refs due to being a small market franchise. part of me wants a utah/bucks final just because it would hurt the nba's business so much but i know that can't happen because of the bilderbergs and the freemasons

Actual top 5 all time: 1. LeBron 2. Jabbar 3. MJ 4. Wilt 5. David Robinson If Robinson had Manu/Parker/Popovich instead of Sean Elliot and Avery Johnson he would have won like eight championships. 3.6 blocks and 1.7 steals averaged during his peak years and insane offensive efficiency. It's only because of rings that Duncan overshadows him

fun fact: my hometown sacramento kings almost drafted doncic aka lebron 2.0 but vlade divac didn't because he didn't like doncic's dad (maybe an inter-balkan thing idk) and instead drafted one of the least efficient busts in the nba, marvin bagley. this franchise deserves everything that happens to it especially after they kept luke walton after getting accused of sexual assault expecting 3-0 today because doncic is a god among men

the kings have gone longer than any major league sports team not making the playoffs aside from the seattle mariners, and in seattle's defense they play in a sport where only 4/15 teams in their league make it rather than the 8/15 teams in an nba conference. the kings are absolutely the most cursed franchise in sports and we honestly should have just let seattle take them
