@yungcoloradokid I mean standing do matter. It's just sometimes exceptions happen. Same way you're not winning MVP playing under 60 games but it happened once. It doesnt mean games played doesnt matter it just mean sometimes crazy things happen.

When Westbrook won MVP OKC was in 6th place. Standings obviously do not matter. Jokic is the TRUE MVP.

@HPbasketball One last explanation I can think is that you need them to see them be unstoppable in the post season. Seeing them go 7 twice including the finals doesnt give that feeling of overwhelming no matter how good they objectively are.

I'm really interested by the idea that the Thunder are, objectively, an All-Time team. Wins. Point Differential. Defense. Defense with Offensive Capability. Led by MVP. Depth. Coaching. Culture. Execution. But they do not feel like the all-time great teams *to me* and I do not know why. (Thunder fans, I get they fell like that to you and that people SHOULD view them that way. Read the first part again.) If you're not a Thunder fan, does OKC feel like an all-time great team on par with Warriors 2016, 2017, or say, Heat 2012 (who were objectively much worse than OKC), OKC 2014, 01 Lakers, etc? If not, why not?

@HPbasketball Possible explanation: It harder to see defense as an all time great rather than offense. Most people thinking of an all time great team goes to how overwhelming the offense was or having 2 offensive superstars even if the defense was also great.

@HPbasketball One possible explanation is that their style of defense is very upsetting to many so it's hard to acknowledge to give them full credit for dominance. Kind of like Bron going to Miami and being rooted against in 2011.

@EmmanuelAcho I'm not opposed to the idea JJ could lose the locker room. I strongly disagree about Luka injury being related to his ego. Luka being out there is normal. He is at 25 minutes played and we are in the 3rd quarter.

JJ Redick is often saying what his players are doing wrong, and rarely ever taking accountability for his own mismanagement of the roster. Maybe if JJ would’ve showed some humility or leadership while down by 30 at halftime to the Thunder last week, Reaves and Luka would still be healthy today. Redick is often more bully than coach. He routinely calls out his lesser back up/role players, but doesn’t keep the same energy for his leaders. The roster will rebel before it wins.

@FTFonFS1 @getnickwright He is playing 1 more game. There's no doubt to me. And this is exactly why the rule was made. Make stars play more. My disagreement with the rule is that I dont think stars playing 2-3 more games is worth 3 All-Nba slot (Luka, Ant, Cade).

.@getnickwright says this is the biggest story of the NBA's 65-game rule 👀 “Did Wemby go back in this game to make sure it counted for eligibility?…Now, we’re in a very awkward spot for the San Antonio Spurs franchise and for Wemby… It is a very unique situation.”

@Airaasayss 42

Most people rush and fail....Don't be one What’s your answer?? 🤔🤔

@anime_glaze what show is that?

Holy sh*t, that slice was clean af

@UnderdogNBA The tanking is decided by how many teams are in the lottery the more you expand the more team you give incentive to lose.

Shams: NBA Board of Governors will meet on May 28 to vote on anti-tanking draft lottery reform. Option 1 has gained the most momentum: - 18 teams in lottery: Bottom 10 that miss Play-In and 8 that qualify - Bottom 10 teams each have 8% chance of moving up in lottery - Other 8 teams split 20% odds of moving up - All 18 spots drawn as part of lottery

@maki1300 @pointmadebball You kinda need it if you dont want people checking in for 5 minutes and making that count.

@pointmadebball I don't like the 20mins minimum on top the 65 games minimum.

Stand in the corner and get your 20 minutes legend

@TheDunkCentral @VinceGoodwill Getting some games in before playoff is probably a good idea.

BREAKING: Cade Cunningham WILL return tonight, per @VinceGoodwill

@wembyfan4life @TheDunkCentral @LegendOfWinning @VinceGoodwill max he will play is 64.

@TheDunkCentral @LegendOfWinning @VinceGoodwill Can he still qualify ?

@jmorton78 I dont think people disagree it is impressive. The disagreement is that this impressiveness doesnt mean mvp.

I think people are so numb to Jokic putting up these stats to fully realize that leading the league in assists and rebounds is insane and there's all of the 80 years of NBA History to back that up. Social media is full of cynical bastards so I guess I shouldn't be surprised

@cooly_bobby @MarzTalksSports I dont know about that. He was always winning running away but I think he needed the record to be unanimous. And that came down to the wire.

@MarzTalksSports It was quite obvious Steph was going to be Unanimous

Bro what

@MarzTalksSports I think people struggle with the difference of " I can make the argument that other guy was playing great" and "That guy had the best season". Kinda like everyone wants to make argument about Wemby or Jokic but when you have to vote you pick Shai at #1.

@NotAnOKCFan Real shot Nuggets Spurs They can take 2 games Wolves Rockets Maybe they take 1 game Clippers Warriors Trailblazers They sweep Suns

Ranking every Western conference team based on difficulty of playoff matchup vs OKC 1. Spurs 2. Nuggets *gap* 3. Rockets 4. Timberwolves 5. Clippers *gap* 6. Lakers 7. Suns 8. Trailblazers 9. Warriors Thoughts?

@heyjay_xo When that says adapted Mahoraga does that no curse technique would work on him at all? He probably wins that fight. I think Dabura and Sukuna can throw hands at him but Im not sure if you can kill it or it ever gets tired. If they can kill it Sukuna wins.

ALL OF THESE CHARACTERS IN ONE ROOM….. WHO IS MAKING IT OUT ALIVE??

Be honest

@ShinobiVaultHQ naruto-Jiraiya.. Bond that goes beyond the teaching. there's a true feeling of a guardian and a kid that has no none.

Which Mentor-Student duo is the best?

@allsmileswmiles I kept expecting them to kiss.

Alright enough internet for today 😭
