NBA 2024-2025

All sports. We don't even mind if its women's Curling or junior badminton. Although we won't have strong opinions on the latter.

Brick a layup to put the game away than foul a 3pt shot 5 seconds later to lose the game lol. He's too stupid to be of value to a serious team. He's better suited being the "guy" on a complete dog shit team like the Wizards

LMAO! There's no way he could go back to the Denver locker room after that. Jokic is already pissed at teammates being dogshit. That's total "Check please!" gotta go. :lol:

And really should have just dribbled it out to run clock there. His basketball IQ is so low. I’m a UCLA guy but I can’t stand watching him.

The problem is he has so much equity with teammates and Malone, he will never be held accountable for going into hero mode and fucking up.

If he was a rookie, I could see it. Motherfucker been playing so long, he was drafted by a team the rookies have never even seen play, and he's showing em how it's done old school. :lol:

Nuggets will likely get blown out of the playoffs in 4 or 5 games. They can still somehow fumble their way to the play-in too. Total rebuild coming. Trade everyone but Jokic, Gordon and Braun imo. I just don't want the Nuggets to get eliminated by the Lakes, Wolves or Warriors. Preferably.

I have conceded all hope in a Nuggets championship. Avalanche keep me happy and have a legit chance at another Cup run this year. Rockies not losing 100 games would be amazing.

Jokic is bigger than the Nuggets and deserves better than anything they can do for him going forward. It’s done. No assets and multiple terrible contracts. We’re just running out the clock until he can join his best friend Luka in LA.

NBA forces him to the Celtics so we can have a Lakers Celtics Finals every year until 2040

Still don't know what the fuck happened where I woke up and suddenly big European oafs took over American basketball. Wild times.

Our mans Jock Itch is changing the game. Should revert back to some degree of normalcy after Curry and his chucking of 3s like we're playing NBA Jam changed the game for the worse for a while.

Huh? Teams have shot more threes this season than any previous season. Attempts have increased every year since 2011.

Fun fact: every team in the NBA now shoots more 3’s per game than the 2015-16 Warriors.

Yeah. That's the trend I was talking about. The 3s are killing the game. Eventually centers will be asked to perform Jokic duties out of the draft and the 3s will go down. imo

There is no reason for that trend to reverse. After dunks and layups, the most efficient shot is every kind of three. It would take rule changes to reverse the math.

Why would centers be asked to do what Jokic does? He’s a unicorn and his impact is singular. Teams will continue to mostly build around ball handling wings and point guards who can hit 3’s off the high screen.

The most influential players in my lifetime are Michael Jordan for changing the franchise player prototype to iso-centric guards/wings, and Steph Curry for ushering in the three point explosion. They changed the way the game is played. Nobody plays like Jokic.
