Random NBA Observations 2022 - 2023

3rd quarter of the Kings jazz game feel like it's going for hours

 

[Osmar]

Thunder scored 150 in regulation against the Celtics without SGA

 

[Serious]

What would you say to one Marcus Smart for one James Wiseman?

Uneven trade fam, you know warriors are getting finessed in this trade. They're going more back then just SMART to make the trade for wiseman @Don Homer

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

The Thunder just dropped 150 on the Celtics and nobody is posting any corny threads and @Gil Scott-Heroin has nothing to say

Let me guess this is different than when you rode the Nets for losing to the Kings in a fluke loss?

Edit: There he is

The Celtics deserve all the smoke, as did the Nets. Both teams are in that contending territory.

The only real difference is Boston hasn't been through turmoil like the Nets have, so these losses don't really speak to a greater narrative.

For the record - I don't think the Nets have changed, at least not in the sense that folks think they have. They still play the same way, they've just been able to build confidence off having an easy schedule, which to their credit they managed to use in beating both the Bucks and Cavs. Regardless, of whoever the coach is though, they're always destined to go down the same path. If they're good enough to win in the playoffs - than they always were. If they're not - well, you know the story with that.

You can’t make this up anymore Coming from a Warriors fan whose best win is against the Memphis Grizzlies who have been stinking it up lately

They throwing bows in this Jazz game.

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

Seen/heard some media guys downplay Boston's defensive struggles this season but 150 in regulation to OKC without SGA is alarming. Something is off there.

You aren’t going to have it defensively for all 82 games. Blowouts happen even to top teams in the league.

The Warriors have been missing a combination of Steph, Wiggins, Klay, Kuminga, JMG etc, and have beaten multiple teams in the playoff picture over this stretch. You're a clown only popping your head up now after you were celebrating when they lost on a B2B while shorthanded, thinking that somehow proved your dumbass point to be true.

They've got a better record now than they did the moment Steph got injured and now you're up in here juelzing because you were proven wrong for the 1000000th time.

There it is y’all

They still haven’t beaten anyone

It’s the same team even though they started 2-6 with Nash. They’re 23-6 under JV but I forgot they’re the same team. They’re rebounding, defending, and hitting open shots under Vaughn. Whereas with Nash they gave up the most second chance points and points in the paint
