Don't want to hear anything about Embiid better than the Joker. Yes I know Kanter is not Marc Gasol but Jokic still better @Roland17 I told you watch out for the Bruins and the Blues in the NHL playoffs. They are both in the Conference Finals |

On that note screw barca and screw liverpool too. I hope Ajax rips them to pieces. |

KarnThornheart: Na bro. Been a fan of Liverpool since 2005 You don't know me well enough to conclude I'm a bandwagon. Been a warriors fan since 2013. Don't jump into conclusions. It shows immaturity. Be good bro 1 Like |

A40: Baba you talk am oh. I was desperately rooting for the Sharks but that OT goal was heartbreaking for them especially Ben Bishop who ironically was a Blues goalie before moving to the Sharks. Something about the Bruins is the grit and aggressiveness with which they play. |

steady986: KD can get buckets from any number of ways ever invented. In the low post, at the rim, from mid range, from 3 point range. All of these options for KD offer shots he can not only make efficiently but are also shots he is extremely comfortable taking. Other great scores like Wilt, KAJ, Bird, Malone, Kobe and even MJ(who IMO is the greatest scorer ever) had 1 or 2 options they were not either comfortable with or could never be efficient at. Wilt, KAJ, Malone never were even average shooters, Bird couldn't play above the rim that well cause he lacked elite athleticism, Kobe was never an efficient shot selector and MJ is just not the pure shooter KD is. Maybe it's a function of all his basketball influences but KD has nearly every shot in the book. 2 Likes |

A40: The only reason people are sleeping on the joker is that he is unconventional, a true point-center has never existed before in the NBA. |
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 9:16pm On May 08, 2019 |
Damn!!! Have you guys seen the Ayesha Curry interview?? Steph better go off in the right way. Here's a link so you guys catch along what's going on. https://www.instagram.com/p/BxNr0iIhJyK/?igshid=2vmo2hz4o2u8 |
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 9:20pm On May 08, 2019 |
Khanben: Small problem with your analysis. KD is on a team with the best shooter in nba history, best shooting backcourt in nba history, and two time nba champs. All this means you cant load up on him like you can on other stars. For example Kawhi has seen triple teams even, and still scores. To even double team Durant is wahala. Best you can do is help defense. Now consider Kawhi...proven playoffs MVP on multiple teams. No ring, but imagine if he was on Warriors instead. Or Kobe . Lets be realistic please. 1 Like |
Re: The NBA Begins by Khanben: 9:25pm On May 08, 2019 |
birdman: KD has always been an efficient scorer even during his OKC days. Kawhi is great but is not a better scorer, for one thing KD is a better shooter. In terms of who is better overall, IMO there is no clear cut answer and both are in the same bracket |
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 9:34pm On May 08, 2019 |
Khanben: In the same bracket as far as scoring efficiency? Yes. As far as best players in the league, Kawhi is one level above. He understands and affects the game in the same way Magic or Lebron does. For example, most games Kawhi scores like 20pts/9rebs, but his effect on the game makes you think he has 40. If KD scores that, it looks like he was lowkey all game.. 1 Like |
Re: The NBA Begins by Khanben: 9:46pm On May 08, 2019 |
birdman: KD's overall effect on games have greatly improved over the years. In fact for the past two seasons his defense have improved to an all nba defense level. Kawhi is still the better defender while KD is the better offensive player. So for me it's a toss up who is better, an argument can be made for either of them. |

SmooshCHN: That literally makes absolutely no sense. Certain qualities are universally accepted as desirable? Who doesnt want to be graceful elegant and sophisticated? Im just saying, theres such a thing as a role model, the queen is a good role model for her. Mr TMZ |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 11:54pm On May 08, 2019 |
Roland17:Naah I think Bishop played with the Lightning but is from St Louis. He plays for the Stars right now you mean Bruins have the best blend of youth and experience. Their guys Bergeron, Marchand and Krejci are proven playoff performers and their goalie Tuuka Rask has been the best in these playoffs. I wouldn't rule out the Hurricanes pulling an upset anyway |
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 11:58pm On May 08, 2019 |
KarnThornheart:This literally makes absolutely no sense. She should live her life according to LeBron's wife's because Ersan in Kaduna thinks it's what is universally accepted as desirable? Come on, even slaves don't live like that. You can do that if it works for you. I don't hear Steph complaining to you. This would be hard to grasp but start getting used to it. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 12:02am On May 09, 2019 |
Lady and gentlemen, Here is James Harden shooting a 3 when no one is guarding him. Now compare it to the rubbish he does when guarded to see if that landing spot rubbish actually is followed. https://streamable.com/fnuuv |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 12:19am On May 09, 2019 |
SmooshCHN: LOL I dont even know why i'm talking about this, let alone talking about this with you of all people. Ooh and PS, Northern nigerians dont use the name Ersan, dunce. |

Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 12:21am On May 09, 2019 |
Eruditor:Sometimes that upper body strength forces you to jump forward and flop everytime. And he's brilliant at baiting the refs too. Perhaps everyone in the league needs to start learning from Harden. |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 12:39am On May 09, 2019 |
Khanben:People are always hung up on athleticism. Power, muscle. Dem forget say ogbon ju agbara lo. This is why I ranked Jokic higher than Embiid as the league's best Center and niggas were arguing with me on other platforms |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 12:56am On May 09, 2019 |
A40: Very few elite centers in the league these days but i guess i can agree with this. Pre injury boogie was better than jokic though. |
