It's like a meme, but it's also actually happening, real, and measurable. Sort of like when Trump was President.

They're too old and they've played too many minutes.

Four of the top seven active NBA players with the most MP are Lakers. Trevor Ariza is also in the top ten but he hasn't played yet.

well yeah but the jump from 195-205 to 350 is a lot bigger than zions 305 to 350 or whatever. hes a huge dude and is gonna have a short career dogged by injuries cuz human bodies aint made for that but its not an apples comparisonif curry can still shoot threes at 350 im cool with it. dude wouldnt need ballscreens anymore, his circumference would prevent anyone blocking his shots

Yeah, I just overstated for the wow factor.

...any stat that hasn't noticed Melo and Dwight are doing nothing now isn't super accurate.

Carmelo is by far the Lakers best 3P shooter. Without him they'd be one of the worst 3P teams in the whole league.

DeimosRising posted:

I like when he rattles off all the places worse than the US and it�s just a list of places the US has bombed or put sanctions on, and conspicuously not shithole allies like Saudi Arabia or El Salvador or whatever

It's similar to when R news media talks about liberal hellholes or whatever and then lies by omission acting like there are no R areas with issues.

Wow look at that Luka pass, teammate clangs an open 3 off the rim. Plus Jason Kidd, Luka isn�t in shape, keeps hurting his ankle, refs let other players slap him on almost every drive, and he keeps playing through pain.

Rest in Peace my friend you will be greatly missed..

Speaking of players who are bad now, I feel like teams have adjusted to Dalano Banton. Between that and Flynn having a bad start to the year, and Dragic being sent home, the Raptors are more or less without a second point guard. They've been trying Siakam plus the bench lineups and they are really not working.

I will check it out.

At some point I will make an NBA podcast thread if no one does it but it feels like a lot of work and maybe should be done by someone who likes more than 1.75 shows.
