Giannis with more first place votes than Jokic now out of the votes we have public. You hate to see it

 

Kings warriors game 1 is the most expensive first round game of all time, if there are a bunch of warrior fans in the house I’m going to be furious. Have some integrity people

 

nature is healing

 

jalen got the call that he was behind the wrong narrative

 

Only in the NBA is the MVP award this discussed over lol

 

I know the game has evolved, but it's still pretty wild that four of the top fifteen highest scoring seasons (per 75 possessions) in the last fifty years were in 22-23.

#2: Embiid (35.6 pts/75 possessions)
#4: Giannis (34.7 pts/75 possessions)
#8: Doncic (33.4 pts/75 possessions)
#15: Dame (32.4 pts/75 possessions)

#1 = 18-19 Harden, #3 = 86-87 Jordan, #5 = 05-06 Kobe. Embiid and Giannis each have two other years in the top fifteen; Harden and Jordan each have one other one.

 

Yeah we’ve been terrible. This year didn’t help that Cade missed basically the whole year. But it’s also not like we’re actively tanking. We make moves and sign decent players. We just stink

 

Don't forget 'this is a pivotal game'!

 

Draymond having a first place vote for DPOY while Lopez doesn’t so far is some crazy shit

 

This is killing me lmao

 

apparently it’s because Brook plays with two other elite defenders so it’s easier for him to just focus on doing one thing lol

 

pretty reasonable stuff from cousins tbh

 

It's a pretty reasonable argument to make since yeah, Jokic hasn't won anything. But at the same time, it's a regular season award, so it's the media who's to blame if anyone's trying to conflate a Jokic 3-peat as him being better than Shaq and Hakeem or whoever else with rings

 

Boogie Cousins is Jokic father, point Boogie was a force of nature people forget

 

Has Cousins reached the level of player he was in his SAC days since he left that team?

 

He was putting up career numbers in New Orleans before the achilles, and played really well for the warriors in the 30 games before his acl. just a shame injuries robbed him of the second half of his career. His statistical run from '13-'18 is crazy

 

Where da predictions at

 

Bucks in 6
