Stylebender vs Romero is official. Question anything but don't question this man's balls. If he beats Yoel and Costa then for me he becomes the GOAT middleweight Whittaker the pullout merchant strikessss. I was really looking forward to that Cannonier fight |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 9:25pm On Jan 17, 2020 |
A40: What??

Crazy how much the game has changed because of the 3 ball.

zelgiusdigby:I know the default reaction is Spider. I won't argue but his body count with Costa, Gastellum, Costa and Romero is a murderer's row of killers men. Especially when I look at Costa and Romero who in my eyes are more Light Heavyweights. Especially Romero who can't make weight quite often |

A40: You keep disrespecting Harden. This Dude's Led teams have become the closest to dethroning the Jaggernaut that is the Curry+Durant Led Warriors. Me saying the Series ends in a hard fought 7 game series is me being generous. It most likely ends sooner sef. My Man was dropping 35+ on the Warriors for crying out Loud. As I said, it's mostly mental. Once He figures it out, it's a wrap. Also there are rumours that He might get traded to the Warriors. Oh lawd with Steph and Klay Cooking and no Embiid clogging the paint, you all better watch out. |
Re: The NBA Begins by chic2pimp(m): 10:34pm On Jan 17, 2020 |
zelgiusdigby: Quite a few surprises Here. Surprised Yanni is above Steph. Then again Steph is out injured. Did not expect to see Luka that far down the List. He'll definitely be number 1 very soon. Tatum at number 4 above Luka,Harden,Kawhi, Durant,Kyrie,AD,Embiid, Westbrook et al is shocking. |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 12:50am On Jan 18, 2020 |
chic2pimp:Of all people on this page you should know better than to come here and drop this kin Lamba for me. Let's look at Harden's actual performance this year they came closest to dethroning the Warriors. If you scratch out Game 1. James Harden failed to shoot up to 50% from the field. These are some of the stink bombs he dropped in that series where he oscillated from average to atrocious Average Game 3: 7/16 Game 6: 10/24 Game 4: 11/26 Atrocious Game 2: 9-24 including 3-15 from 3 Game 5: 5-21 including 0-11 from 3 (Rockets won inspite of Harden's poverty shooting Game 7: Fate of the universe on the line this man's shot 12-29 and 2-13 from 3 If you think this person will beat a Kawhi led team with these numbers you need to pass the Dutchie pon the left hand side Lmaooooooo Embiid is a center. He's supposed to clog the paint!! Tell your man's to borrow a J. Imagine a "PG" that is dragging paint with the Center because he does not have any offensive move beyond 3 yards from the paint. Rumors ko 2Baba ni. I mean what kind of PG can't be doubled and is a waste of time double teaming. And you wonder why he keeps dropping disaster classes in the playoffs where no awoof half court baskets |

The worst thing about American sports is their penchant for rewarding mediocrity with an automatic 1st overall pick (really happy NBA change the lottery odds) |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:57am On Jan 18, 2020 |
chic2pimp: Everything else makes sense. Tatum is by far the most shocking. Must be some good weed in Boston. |

SmooshCHN:You don't follow the D'tigers and international basketball nearly enough to argue with me on this. Even though GB have the opportunity of getting players from 4 different countries, they are still ranked 42 in the world. Whereas the minnows you call Nigeria are ranked 24. I have no doubt that GB are not in the the class of Nigeria right now. I've watched enough of D'tigers to tell you this for sure. This is not the EPL bro, it's FIBA. |
Re: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 8:57am On Jan 18, 2020 |
Eruditor:Lol, all this just because a whole D'lo joined your team? |
Re: The NBA Begins by steady986(m): 9:04am On Jan 18, 2020 |
chic2pimp:It's not just about joining a team that has all the money in the world. These guys are NBA players, I don't think money is their problem. I'm sure they want to win something, even if na continental trophy. If the FIBA Afrobasket kicks off right now, Nigeria are favourites to win it. As it stands, GB has no chance of winning the Euro Basket even in the next 10 years. There are teams like Spain, Lithuania, France, Serbia, Latvia, Germany and a host of others that are light years ahead of them. The players should want to join a team that has better prospects, and Nigeria right now outclasses GB in that regard. Simple. At least Nigeria can beat their chest and say they're the best in Africa, what can team GB boast of? Cc SmooshCHN |

Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 8:00pm On Jan 18, 2020 |
steady986:I don't even watch EPL. Why waste my time? *Some people are triggered* Guy, I'm not arguing ranking. What has Nigeria got to offer OG? On the long run, would it be better he played for Nigeria or GB? |
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 8:38pm On Jan 18, 2020 |
If you had been probing his game more deeply, especially prior to the injuries you would know that Green is not the man to carry a team. He thrived and flourished in that offence though, I will give him that. A40: |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 9:57pm On Jan 18, 2020 |
benji93:There is difference between inability to carry a team and dropping G-LEAGUE level production. It's why it's always grated my ears whenever I heard people talk about how the Warriors had 4 all stars while KD was there. In the absence of Steph and Klay one cannot point to what he is doing well either offensively or defensively |
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 12:06am On Jan 19, 2020 |
These guys just continue to find ways to drag the beautiful game of baseball back to the dirt. The MLB has done an impressive job in reducing the use of steroids and beating scandals and I can imagine it must be frustrating for true lovers of the game to see another play calling scandal. 1 Like |

The Lakers and Rockets are playing some intense basketball. I love it! |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 5:15am On Jan 19, 2020 |
The AD less Lakers went to Houston, beat them (and the refs) and bron got MVP chants in James Hardens house. What a great season it's been so far. 2 Likes |

Smart was 11-22 from three against the Suns ![]() |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:00am On Jan 19, 2020 |
Great fight by the preachers daughter. Should get a comfortable decision. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:09am On Jan 19, 2020 |
Jorge giving Kamaru a taste of his own medicine there. "Who? Who?" What are you a fvcking owl? |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:10am On Jan 19, 2020 |
Meanwhile, Kamarus Twitter has been hacked ![]() |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:30am On Jan 19, 2020 |
Damn! Conors back with a bang! Less than a minute to take him out. Granted he cherry picked but f-ck it! Surprise surprise! The king is back! |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:34am On Jan 19, 2020 |
All his shenanigans and the khabib fight makes people forget how good he is. When this guy is focused he's a beast. But seriously, cowboy is jello now. No way the old cowboy would have gone down this easily. Happy he got his red panty night though, no one deserves it more in the UFC. And a great return fight for conor, let's see if he stays at 170 for the BMF or WW belts or he goes down to 155 to get his pride back. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:57am On Jan 19, 2020 |
Utah has been en fuego since they got JC. The west is shaping up to be the labyrinth people expected. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 10:20am On Jan 19, 2020 |
zelgiusdigby: On this note i think masvidal at 170 is the best fight for him. He has the best chance against him and makes the most money against him. He will probably lose to both khabib and kamaru easily. Even though Masvidal is bigger, he has the punching power to stand a chance especially since both of them will stay on their feet. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 10:25am On Jan 19, 2020 |
A40: Hes faced some bona fide killers but so has anderson, plus anderson has actually fought at LHW. Then you add in the record consecutive title defenses until he got bored and literally beat himself by showboating before his body broke down. Propelling Izzy ahead of him is like propelling him into the GOAT convo, no way! Not yet! And BTW, whittaker pulling out is just another sacrifice we have to make to the MMA gods to make sure that Tony vs Khabib doesnt get cancelled once again. Small price to pay. Theres hardly a more exciting fight than that right now. |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 12:06pm On Jan 19, 2020 |
zelgiusdigby:I hope they give Masvidal to Kamaru next. Sick of his fanboys all over the interweb fronting like Masvidal isn't 3-2 in his last 5 fights and is trending because he beat a few washed up names |
