@FB_FilmAnalysis Kirk’s arm cannot last an entire season anymore. He gonna be cooked by Week 8.
English
It’s not far fetched to think that the Raiders told Kirk they want him to start the entire season
Kevin Clark@bykevinclark
I asked new Raiders QB Kirk Cousins what he would change about QB development a few weeks back. The first thing he mentioned? Rookies sitting and learning. A great breakdown of how he views the position and (potentially) his new role here:
English
@TheDunkCentral his team has the same record and he is better in every phase of the game but he shouldn’t be ranked higher. someone make it make sense pls
English
Chris Haynes says there’s a case that Luka Dončić shouldn’t even be ranked higher than Jaylen Brown in the MVP race.
“If Luka finishes the season out strong, there’s still no way that he should overtake SGA. There’s still no way that, if the Spurs finish second, he will overtake Wemby. Then, there’s also a case that he shouldn’t even overtake Jaylen Brown. If we want to debate that Luka should be top five, I’ll give you that. I’m not going any further than that.”
(Via @SiriusXMNBA / h/t @NBA__Courtside )
English
Luka is not the mvp because shai averaging 32 on 55% for a 60 win team where J dub barely played. One of the best offensive seasons ever for a 60 win team. Wemby too but point still stands.
Not because luka don’t play defense that’s just lazy as hell.

When was the last time the All-NBA First Team had zero players from an entire conference
𝓜𝓪𝓽𝓽 ✈️@mldiffley
We’re all in agreement that these 5 are first team all-NBA this season right?
English
@Snipez737 @JamCristopher man u just talkin. u said nothing about SGA teammates, and u said nothing about jb. how about u keep up on the convo before u just start talking. jb definitely a candidate but ur delusional if u think he has had a better season than Luka, like what are we talking about ??
English
@BG32ZO2MB1 @JamCristopher are u tryna be dumb or what? i js said obviously they have impact fucking read, all i’m saying is jb has the most impact and u completely disregarded him and basically called him useless. nga i hate jb ur js a dumbass tho
English
Raiders Head Coach Klint Kubiak speaks on when he’d want a rookie QB to start
“I think in a perfect world he’s watching a mature adult run an offense and run the team. You might have that player, you might not. He might have to come in and play immediately.”
English
@SayMane901 @FastbreakHoops5 Nash alone has as many MVPs as everyone else on this list combined
English
@FastbreakHoops5 Nash is THE least accomplished & he’s #1?
Not to mention his game was the most limited of any player here
English
@HanaHoops those are the “unanimous” HOFers. but yeah overall they just need to be more exclusive with it.
English
Hot take but there should be a separate HOF to place more elite players
Onyx@OnyxOdds
If Kevin Love retired today, would he deserve to make the Hall of Fame? ⭐️ 5x All-Star ⭐️ 2x All-NBA ⭐️ 2016 NBA Champion ⭐️ 2011 Most Improved Player ⭐️ 15.8 PPG / 9.8 RPG / 1.8 APG
English
@aaronbarton__ @simple_burner @dretheO_3 @JMannsTakes @Dukeblogger his game is just more NBA ready. he will be able to play well from Day 1. but these other guys still have so much room to improve and they show the flashes of what could be. Boozer will be a good player in the league, just not a superstar.
English
@BG32ZO2MB1 @simple_burner @dretheO_3 @JMannsTakes @Dukeblogger But as a prospect he’s significantly better than both, coming out?
Just because his highlights aren’t as exciting as the other top prospects doesn’t mean you should deny what he’s doing. You don’t get NPOTY for nothing
English
This is Kon Knueppel discourse all over again. People point out the separation in athleticism and ignore overall production
Rapheal Davis@RaphealDavis3
Just don’t see how people view Boozer as a better NBA prospect than Caleb Wilson.
English
@lakersoptimistt @el_budget @johnrivers131 1st pick you gotta shoot for the moon or else you look like an idiot, like the Trailblazers (KD) and the Suns (Luka). Unless the team is already set up for success like the Spurs last year.
English
@el_budget @johnrivers131 Really fun discussion would be on if you had the #1 overall pick and could chose between a guaranteed consistent fringe all star or 20% chance at a first team all-nba guy which would you chose??
English
If Cam Boozer has a career similar to his father then he is absolutely a worth lottery pick
Aldo Raine@jaympickett
@el_budget His dad is his ceiling. Not lottery pick.
English
@Snipez737 @JamCristopher clearly he had something to do with it, but you don’t think his teammates also being really fucking good had anything to do with it ?? the whole point of MVP is it being given to the most valuable player. Take Shai off OKC they are still a playoff team. Take Luka off Top 5 pick
English
@BG32ZO2MB1 @JamCristopher so sga had nothing to do with the 4th quarter blow outs and the team just magically went up 20? are u fucking stupid? the reason he sits in the 4th is CUZ HE BLEW THE OTHER TEAM OUT. u can’t even say this cuz he has the greatest clutch stats season ever in literally EVERYTHING 😂
English
if Ant had said that, he wouldn’t have been waived
which makes me wonder…
who is the WORST player who could get away with saying that being gay is a sin and the NBA shouldn’t celebrate Pride Month
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania
The Chicago Bulls are waiving guard Jaden Ivey after his recent anti-LGBTQ comments amid several rants on religion and other topics, sources tell ESPN.

2018 LeBron couldn’t get a game off the warriors in the finals
The spurs without Kawhi got 1
The pelicans without Demarcus Cousins got 1
The rockets got 3
Mink Flow@currypistonn
2018 LeBron James could take everyone in that room to the NBA Finals.
English
@simple_burner @dretheO_3 @JMannsTakes @Dukeblogger fair. i think he’ll be a good player, archetype thats important in winning championships. i see aaron gordon type role. He’ll make a lot of money in the league forsure. Definitely worth a Top 5 pick.
English
@BG32ZO2MB1 @dretheO_3 @JMannsTakes @Dukeblogger I think Cam will have a much better career than his Pops stat wise. He just has more skill than his dad did. I also think Cam could grab a ton of rebounds, but today’s NBA just has all 5 guys grabbing rebounds more than just the big man
English
@draftballr aka his ceiling is not much higher than what he is right now. ready now, don’t expect too much later
English
They prefer the prospects whose games still contain emptiness, because emptiness invites projection, and projection has no ceiling.
Cameron Boozer offers no such emptiness.
He offers evidence.
NBA Courtside@NBA__Courtside
Kevin O’ Conner on the conversation surrounding Cameron Boozer vs Darryn Peterson and AJ Dybantsa: “I think one of the arguments against Boozer is there isn’t the ‘IT’ factor. I think with Peterson people imagine what he can be. With Dybantsa they imagine what he can be when he’s at his best. With Boozer it’s more like ‘yeah, he’ll be Al Horford or Kevin Love. A good player.’ It’s almost like there’s just no magic behind it” (Via @KevinOConnor)
English
@simple_burner @dretheO_3 @JMannsTakes @Dukeblogger Cam Boozer is not more talented that Paolo Banchero lmao. Peak Kevin Love was getting you 20+ rebounds any given night. Boozer will have a great career if he can even manage to be his father, that’s not a knock either. Borderline All-Star in his best years.
English
@dretheO_3 @JMannsTakes @Dukeblogger Love had 2 career years where he averaged 26 & 12, 1 year outside of those 2 that he averaged 20 points. So 3 total years of 20+ points and 10+ rebounds. Cam Boozer might average 20 & 10 his first 3 years in the league. Paolo has almost averaged that, and Cam had a better year
