The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

[Tremendous Upside]

Low potential Kon with 32 points.

Never doubted this kid

 

[fishonjazz]

Just more Steph magic. 49 pts and clutch.


"Curry recorded his 44th game with 40 or more points since turning 30, tying Michael Jordan for the most in NBA history."

He has been my favorite non jazz player in the nba for the last decade or so

Do I need to go watch some Mavs games or can someone explain why Flagg is -133 for the season while their second worst guy is PJ Washington at -64?

Sure he has the most minutes on a bad team, but Max Christie is their 2nd in minutes and he currently stands at -20.

I know Flagg probably mucks up their offense and they probably force feed him in the name of development, but he is supposed to be a good defender so I dont get how the margins can be that wide.

The Pels fired their head coach this morning. Hopefully they are abandoning the tank.

They owe their pick to the hawks so they were never going to tank. I don't how Joe Dumars was able to get another job and immediately makes what could be an all time bad trade.

I know he was playing point guard for them. That's probably not ideal. Don't know how often or if he still is but that alone kind of gives you an idea of what a **** show they are.

Cuz they are playing him at PG when he isnt a PG.

He's been my favorite player in the league for 3 or 4 years now. Unbelievable player. For 5 years he has been consistently top 3 best player in the world. At this pace he's building an argument to be considered top 5 all-time. Crazy.

He probably is the best offensive player of all time during these peak years

The Celtics started and gave big minutes to Payton Pritchard, Jordan Walsh and Neemias Queta, and they beat the Clippers with Harden scoring 37 pts.

Dumars belongs in the same tier of decision-makers as Nico Harrison, Vlade Divac, and Ryan McDonough—the latter two famously passing on Luka Dončić in favor of Marvin Bagley and DeAndre Ayton. These are GMs who seemed convinced they were seeing something no one else could, dismissing the obvious while embracing mantras like “fortune favors the bold,” without acknowledging that fortune also rarely favors the stupid. Each of these choices was so questionable, so consequential, and so self-evidently wrong-headed that they should have been immediately fireable offenses on their own.
