@BreidenFehoko Damn, those 100 guys chose the wrong profession then as the NBA pays more. Guess it isn't that easy or they'd be doing it instead of football.

See here’s the thing about the NBA I could give you 50-100 guys from the NFL who could do what the Thompson twins or Lu Dort do on a nightly basis.
You can’t show me 1 guy from the NBA who could do what Myles Garrett does on a weekly basis.
It’s levels.

@GoldenKnightGFX It'd be the same result as last year when they gave up homecourt in 2 rounds.
English
What are they gonna say when we bring the series back to LA 1-1???
English
@TheHoopCentral @ohnohedidnt24 Soft league we're in when this many coaches and players cry after losses instead of having g some accountability
English
Jaylen Brown on Joel Embiid:
“We didn’t really have an answer for him…He's a big body. He also was flopping around. He got some extra calls and stuff like that, and they rewarded him for that. But that's the league that we're in.”
(h/t @ohnohedidnt24)

@BobbyMlRE Half the league tanking makes so many of these teams appear to be much better than they really are. You have 50 win and high 40 win teams that are probably more along the line of a 30-35 win teams. There's couple great teams and every other teams wins are inflated drastically.
English
@hoopstonite @_JasonLT @TheVolumeSports No it wasn't. His team isn't as good as people like you say they were. Just because you guys are wrong, doesn’t make it a blemish on him.
English
.@_JasonLT is not rewriting the history of Nikola Jokic’s career but this series is undeniably a blemish
English
@joe_mussatto JDubs out, but might as well call it what it is, a big 12. The entire roster cooks.
English
LeBron James won his first NBA title by beating the Thunder’s Big Three.
Fourteen years later, in what could be his last playoff series, the 41-year-old James has played to see another Thunder Big Three. oklahoman.com/story/sports/n…
English
@jasonrmcintyre There's literally 2 teams that can win it all this year and alot of the teams wins are drastically inflated by half of the league tanking. Many teams aren't near as good as their record would leave you to believe. The players are better than ever, but half the league tanks.
English
Everyone fails to realize how much better and deeper the league is now than 10, 20, 30 years ago
Bottom is bad. Top 16? Never been this good.
Bad individual game L’s here but they were underdogs in 25
Matt@sixringsofsteeI
Denver since winning the 2023 finals: 2024: Lost in WC semis to Minnesota 2025: Lost in WC semis to OKC 2026: Lost in R1 to a depleted Minnesota team That's three straight years of disappointing exits when I thought they'd for sure be back to the WCF, at least once.
English
@amyknowsball Why do yall want him back? dont you like having better team defense without him.
English
@NotAnOKCFan If he did play it's Thunder in 3. Fans, media and everyone else will be so sick of Lukas crying and be like "we've seen enough 5v4 fastbreaks let's just call it in 3 and move on"
English
@The_Barftender They have a crybaby coach though. You're only as strong as your weakest link.
English
A fully healthy Timberwolves team would be so SCARY for OKC and Spurs.
English
@Kenlovehoops Yeah man, I dont think OKC can do it. They've been the most injured team and still got the 1 seed without making excuses for those injuries. I don't think they can pull it off or have the mental fortitude. Those guys just run back on d if a call doesn't go their way. 0 chance
English
@CuffsTheLegend Lakers are lucky he's out. They get to have 5v4 1/2 on D instead of 5v4 on D. Also, OKC is the most injured team this season and still got 1st seed. We didn't have any excuses and you have them before the series starts. Stop it, OKC wishes he was playing.
English
OKC lucky Luka is out
Hoop Central@TheHoopCentral
LAKERS VS. THUNDER SEMIFINALS Call it right now — Which team wins & in how many games?
English
@GoldenKnightGFX Same to you when OKC beats Lakers without JDub. Wasn't OKC the team who had either the 1st or 2nd most games with players out with injuries and still got 1st seed? No excuses
English
Rockets didn’t have KD.
Lakers didn’t have the leading scorer in the entire NBA.
We barely got Austin back last game.
We really don’t wanna hear it lol
English
@VinnyVidiVici98 Then objectively, it's Bill Russell with 11 rings in 13 seqsons.
English
If you say that LeBron is not the greatest you are wrong. Objectively LeBron is better than anyone else who ever played basketball.
English
@CuffsTheLegend First of all, Sonic tots suck, secondly, there is going to be so many tears and crybabies come out after these games. Trolls, the media who only talks about LeBron. Then after OKC wins, it won't be the topic, it'll be "was this LeBrons final game"
English
OKC Thunder don’t scare a soul and aint nothing in Oklahoma but tornadoes and Sonic tater tots
English
@Ahcenelife007 Crybabies who refuse to get back on D should be irrelevant. Those who stop playing before the whistle blows are a disgrace and should never be considered in those best player conversations tbh
English
It sucks how irrelevant Luka has become in these convos despite his level of play individually being good enough to be in these convos. The "roster nuance" era is fully over. It s now straight up team building and accomplishment land and i Hope Luka and the Lakers get it.
Nerd Sesh@Nerd_Sesh
"By next year, I don't see how Jokic is better than Wemby, and Shai's already better than him." @Carsobi says Jokic's reign as best in the world is over for good
English
@TheLukaVerse The Rockets would've had a better chance at winning if he played.
English
Not so fast. Shai vs Jokic is a cute debate, but Luka was better than both and somehow got skipped entirely.
EzraOnTheLow@EzraOnTheLow
Don’t think we forgot that Jokic has one of SGAs MVPs either. Shai should be 3peat MVP this year but they gave it to Jokic because they felt bad about giving one to Embiid.
English
@TheLukaVerse When you cry to the refs after every play, you stop getting the benefit of the doubt. Im sure the refs are sick of him. Get back on the other end and play defense and don't stop until you hear the whistle. Stop giving the other team 5v4 fast breaks.
