KAT is much better than LeBron unfortunately
With zero championships to boot.
Ugly game. Pushing, shoving, elbows flying, arguing with the refs constantly, fouls and/or challenges being called on almost every play… and these were the fans.
You said it—competitive but not championship-caliber. Can Curry win in another team? Did MJ? LBJ won with all the teams he's been with.
I have been told that Wembanyama is going to clear LeBron’s legacy this year with a title and got triggered, unfortunately. Although I actually do believe the Knicks have a chance now; they were elite in the ECF
LeBron started the team hopping and teaming up with elite free agents to chase rings. No HOF top 25 player does that unless they're insecure with their accomplishments and legacy.
Well, Silva officially took the mask off today and ruined the future of the NBA for any small market teams. Fittingly, pulled up the ladder behind San Antonio after they build a generational core with picks 1, 4, and 2 in consecutive years. As long as he gets his Wemby-SGA dynasty for the next decade and the Barstool gambling types quiet down a bit about the tanking, he’s happy.
First time in your life saying that

I do expect them to win tonight, though. They made Game 5 closer than it realistically should’ve been after going down 20 and I think really figured out how to get Wemby going inside towards the 2nd half. Plus, it never hurts that a titanic Game 7 on Saturday night primetime looms with a victory, a TV ratings bonanza for which Silver will surely be keen.
Spurs to win at a canter, imo.
Ngl I turned it off after that run to push it to 20.
If they lean it has to be Spurs for the Wemby finals draw, but I believe it’s the game 1 crew which was even.
I don't really want him as a Laker either, but the fact is the Lakers organization doesn't want to return the COVID/asterisk championship, either. Having said that, with Doncic's suspect commitment to physical fitness year in and year out, especially during the offseason, I wonder why the Lakers even bothered. They are doomed for mediocrity, book it. They have to rebuild from scratch or acquire dominant players like Shaq.
He will have to tell you himself, but I often get the feeling he's comfortable with ''anybody but Curry.''Who do you want to win? I can usually tell based off who you hate on more and the reverse jinx method.. but this time you seem to actually dislike both
New York will be rocking. Now having mad thoughts about New York winning the title in game 6 or something.
Drawing fouls is a great strategy for winning, but annoying to fans.New York will be rocking. Now having mad thoughts about New York winning the title in game 6 or something.
My heart is with San Antonio. Mainly down to being a casual Wembanyama fanboy. I've only really paid close attention to OKC in this final because I zoned out when they played the Lakers, because it was so one-sided. I've been watching the Spurs from the beginning of the playoffs so grown attached to them.
Most of what I heard about OKC is the flopping and stuff. They haven't done much to put those rumours to bed whule I've been watching. Of course, there is talent and everything, but I'm almost tempted to compare OKC with Arsenal.
I doubt he goes to New York. I suspect he resigns with the Lakers.
well, they should at least lose a game!....by one point maybe
Knicks have two very good big men...granted, one can't shoot free throws, which will be a factor, but they don't have to struggle at that position...hell, the big turnaround for them happened when they changed KAT's role
And when I say anybody, I truly mean anybody. Yes, anybody. If the Dubs had played Mikel Arteta’s Gunners and Daniil Medvedev in successive rounds, you’d see me in a red and white top singing Come on you Gunners and clapping for Medvedev.
This will be a blessing for most of the long-time Laker fans. Mgmt has made questionable decision for quite some time.
I really hope not. Knicks fans revel around being tough and perservering with whomever is on their squad, not taking the easy way out and star stacking.
Wow I also missed this man you are cooking. immediately elevated to #1 ball knower in the thread.
It's really up to owner/mgmt to decide, the rest are just chess pieces to be pawned (pun intended)/ traded. But it is too early to tell, meanwhile just enjoy the show and see how it reveals itself.
