NBA and WNBA thread

I commented on a basketball matter. You obviously didn't know about it, but that isn't a shock. Your lack of basketball knowledge shows regularly despite what ypu believe.

All your last 2 posts have beeb about is me. Thankfully I haven't got a bunny.

Love that Giannis stays loyal and wins a ring. CP3 will know his best chance has eluded him.
Now for free agency and the draft. Roll on next season.

Or going to bed late, very late but very worthwhile.
The glove is tossed. Interesting to see if the obvious candidates can respond next year. Hersey and Shaq impressed! Just need Bigz, Kenny the jet snd that’s the full compliment of accolades from those who give them sparingly.

Although CP3 played well in G6 his disappearing act in G4 and average G5 cost the Suns dearly. He’s a fantastic player and the last of the true PGs in my opinion but he missed a golden opportunity to get this done by taking one of those pivotal games.

Massive credit to Bucks. Barkley has been saying all playoffs they will win but they are a dumb team and I think they woke up and played to their strengths just when it mattered most. Giannis was superb and is presumably superhuman to play like that after what looked like a season ending injury! Unreal.

Now onto the Olympics. Sky Q customers get Discovery + free for a year and they have a brilliant app for Olympics with all the sports already scheduled.

Looking forward to Australia v Nigeria and France USA.

Top 5 power forward of all time? But early to be drinking thay heavy

if you're relying on future performance, upu can't be sure.

Interesting one. Obviously doesn't have the cumulative stats but already more individual honours than all but Duncan.
Although all those first team selections for Malone show how great he was for so long. He also has as much team success as a number one option as any of those...with the exception of Duncan. Surely unless his career gets ruined by injuries he's got a great chance of ending up number 2 on that list of players.

I love a good “all time” debate as much as any NBA but due to the way the rules have subtlety changed and certainly the way the game is reffed now I’m finding it harder and harder to judge.
There are some highly skilled offensive players around for sure. Would Giannis be successful in any era? I’d imagine so just based on his athleticism and size.

  I agree with you, it looks like a terrible fit. And the rest of the squad will be very thin...

Case in point, the only time he hasn't averaged a trip dub in the last 4 years was in Houston alongside another ball hog (Harden).

That year he got under 8 rebs and assists per game.

Have to disagree it will work. Imagine the space Westbrook will get? Westbrook can carry the team to give relief to AD and Lebron
Melo joining Lebron is a rather nice story. Monk is a great pick up.
Bucks lakers final next year.

Always sad when I hear of retired players selling their hard won medals and trophies.

The Celtics should step in here…….or for that matter any of the multi millionaire (billionaires in a couple of cases.

I’m sure he earned more than many in his era big shame he feels the need to sell up like this
