Funny to see the reactions to the scottie pick

@burneraccountNS @Coopz___ So if JB is doing it it’s so the refs will finally call it but when Shai does it he’s a terrorist

@Coopz___ Gee I wonder why he does it? Maybe to prove a point and get a fair whistle for once? Lmfao y’all have a low IQ. Shai has done this for years JB started two weeks ago.

I just can’t believe we let the media make Jaylen Brown the poster boy of “ethical” basketball

@broimaaron1 @Playoffcity @R0Roo_7 Once again everybody says that

@Maccaraps @Playoffcity @R0Roo_7 if a man says he doesn't wanna play long because he wants to be in his sons life would you not believe him

For Shai to be in the top 5 all time scorers he will need to average 23.1 PPG until he’s 38. Do you think he can do it?

@TheEliteLo @Snowgxxx @durantjay37 @jasonkredline Ah yes because that’s a metric that we should judge a sports team by. People from other cities coming there to gamble

@Snowgxxx @durantjay37 @jasonkredline "Let's get the boys together and plan a fun trip to Vancouver instead of Vegas" - Shit no one says 🤦‍♂️

The pushback on Vegas getting a team is so hilarious to me. People do not understand this town at all, and the deceptive headlines, ignore the reality that this is one of the best, most profitable, proffessional sports towns in America for three reasons 1. The local community happily gets behind winners. The Golden Knights are one of the best attended sports franchises in America, consistently selling out, and this is driven by locals, not by tourists. 2. Tourists travel to games, and professional sports are live entertainment, fitting perfectly on the strip. 3. This is the biggest one, that I’ve never seen talked about. Owning an arena that can do live events, concerts etc, is unbelievably profitable on the strip. Vegas is the king of concerts, owning an arena where you can make money renting it out for live events in Vegas is printing money. Can’t wait for our team!

To the casual eye, you will see this box score and think, “Wow, this man had an all time great game!” But no? That’s not what actually transpired. First things first, he shot 42% from the field and 20% from 3, a horrendous scoring night. Secondly, you have to ask yourself how did he get so many assists. I will tell you. Several simple DHO’s to Jamal Murray who had 53 POINTS, and he FORCED passes to his teammates to statpad. In the 4Q, a female Denver Nuggets commentator stated that Jokic didn’t want to shoot the wide open floater, instead, he wanted to pass and find a teammate. This is shameless stat padding from a person who values numbers over winning. Thirdly, you see he had 21 rebounds. You must wow, that’s great! But how many were defensive? That’s right, 21! 21 defensive rebounds. Now you had to ask yourself how is this possible. I will tell you. Nikola Jokic does not play ANY defense at all. He does not contest shots (this is why they nearly lost to a tanking team) and stays under the rim PRAYING the opponents miss their shots so he can grab the rebound WHICH ARE ALMOST ALWAYS UNCONTESTED. So in conclusion, he had a horrendous shooting night, forced passes and made his teammates shoot to get him assists, went back into his non shooting gimmick, and stat padded uncontested rebounds. This is why we watch basketball with our eyes, and not box scores or mathematic equations.

@broimaaron1 @Playoffcity @R0Roo_7 Once again everybody says that

@Playoffcity @R0Roo_7 shai said himself he didnt want to play for that long because he wants to be in his son's life

@JrMedford @ClaireMPLS Literally what is the rationale lmao

@ClaireMPLS I’m convinced OKC can’t win a bo7 against anyone

stop the count; this is the perfect round one

@CheffVonn @SuaveCEO_ @esqnessa You’re saying the same thing as him

@SuaveCEO_ @esqnessa Nahh it’s more of a “damn he got me with my own trick” smile

Notice Shai isn’t complaining because he gets it. If anything, he looked more disappointed in himself. He was undisciplined, left his feet, and Jaylen took advantage.

@Nichola25603843 @DRaps04 There’s a stat that tells you his usual points

@DRaps04 This his usual points not suprised

Inexcusable especially in games as important as these

@TMacJR1993 @UnderdogNBA CMB was good

@Maccaraps @UnderdogNBA Horrible game from everyone im so pissed this was just like watching the suns game

Immanuel Quickley (foot) downgraded to doubtful Wednesday.

@TMacJR1993 @UnderdogNBA Ok

@Maccaraps @UnderdogNBA Very bad start for shead already:( can't keep up with garland, missing shots, turns overs,

@FeelLikeDrew This happens like once a game and you can’t beleive it???

They actually called a foul for that when SGA wasn’t even touched i can’t believe it

@SleeperRaptors Fine enough

Raptors representation in The Ringer Top 100 👀 Scottie at 18. BI at 52. RJ at 75. IQ at 83. We agreeing with this?

@TannerBennet1 Well yeah but the reactions to that were insane for a reason

@Maccaraps You never know. Hansen Yang went super early for what people thought

Aday Mara is a raptor and he’s gonna be really fucking good

@TannerBennet1 All I’ve seen is him falling to us or past us

@Maccaraps Not sure if he falls that far. Could see him going 13-20

@waltmuse @baselinebreakdo @NBATradeReport It’s an easy change just tell them to and boom done

@Maccaraps @baselinebreakdo @NBATradeReport I’m not saying I dont, I’m saying it’s soooooo far down on the list of fixes and changes it feels like chasing brownie points

NBA will once again look to implement a dress code for coaches for the 26/27 season. Suits on the sidelines. Discussions in previous years gained very little traction. #NBA

@LordGriimm @SinCitySportHub @30GotNext That’s exactly what I’m doing lol

@Maccaraps @SinCitySportHub @30GotNext Blame raider fans for not coming

Pittsburgh and Kansas City deserve an NBA team more than Vegas but maybe that’s just me

@RaptorsLead @TheDunkCentral That’s fine lol

@TheDunkCentral "jalen johnson" "jamal murray" over scottie lmaoooo #ok
