Random NBA Observations 2021 - 2022

[Miggs]

Tatum shouldnt be an all star this year,why is he penciled as an auto reserve,he doesnt deserve it in any way....

 

[The God Poster]

DEJOUNTE MURRAY

1-5 in those games

Honestly sound like he doing a Westbrook impersonation. We’ll give y’all Russ,DJ & cash

Might as well get the real thing & actually win those games

Yea, Rudy gets these half-baked criticisms thrown his way partly because of pocket watchers and old heads envious of his last deal...

...but also because ppl only pay attention to the end result of him overextending himself defensively to cover for his teammates instead of acknowledging the elephant in the room as to why he has to cover for them so much.

Bringing up PHX was strategic bc defensively you never really hear about Ayton "getting played off the court" despite having comparable mobility.

Luka's ankle must still be killing him because he has no lift and just doesn't look right out there.

Ayton's a lot better offensively. Gobert gets played off the court in the playoffs because he hasn't been able to punish small ball lineups down low.

Heat are scary... Strus and that Turkish dude became real players for em. Spo coaching his ass off its wild he don't have a COY. Bam back next week too dark horse to win it all

Lakers kept THT instead of trying to trade for Lowry

Is this the season the Heat finally put it all together?

You made that post when they were 6-1 (only loss in OT) and looking like the best team in the league They beat down Milwaukee by like 40, sonned Brooklyn, Dallas, Memphis call that shyt preseason if you wanna gloat pleighboi

Also what you mean by "finally" put it together anyways this only their 3rd year with Jimmy and they already were 2 wins away from a chip

As someone who watched every game of the Capela years in Houston (dollar store version of Gobert), and some of his ATL playoff games... there is no being played off the floor offensively for that type of PnR lob-threat big surrounded by shooters & high IQ players.

It may not always be the primary play if you face an elite team but the constant lob and offensive rebound threat will always be there.

Specifically to Gobert, he didn't get played off the court when they went 7 vs Denver.. and vs LAC ppl referred to Mann getting those 3s off as to why Gobert shouldn't have been on the floor.

Grizzlies were due to finally have one of these games

5th game in 7 days. Teams almost always lose those. Wonder what the record is for that 5th game league wide.

 

[Wargames]

Spurs with terrible clock management and missed FTs. It’s like they were trying to lose. And the game ended with them having 2 timeouts.

Bizarre!

Lot of good centers and PF in this draft…
