The Bigfooty NBA Week 14 Thread

[Jatz]

Surely LeBron isn't retiring in LA. They're not going to be competitive again anytime soon.

peternorth What do I do? I've never been so high before. GG though, man LeBron needs some help.

Your friendly neighbourhood Pels are letting you cut in line up to 3rd. We look out for our small market brothers.

Lakers have better shooters on their fanbase than their players lol

Jok 7 Triple Doubles in the last 10 games, insanity

Of the 3 he didn’t get:

• 1 Vs Clippers when we demolished them he only played 24 mins
• 1 Vs Phoenix when we won by 30, only played 28 mins and fell 1 assist shy

Its been a long time for us laker fans to know what its like up the top. Long time.

Agreed, Lebron needs help. Need to go to the draft and rebuild, but the league doessnt want that. So here we are.

 

[peternorth]

Thought Kendrick Nunn was fouled on the 3 ball with 7 to go.

 

[peternorth]

Jokic is the Nuggets all time assissts leader. holy.

Some greats in the top 10. Amazing the top two are forwards (alex not jojo english), followed by the triple double machine Fat Lever. Then nuggety pg andre miller.

In todays strangest nba stat.



LeBron James has scored 10+ points in 44 consecutive halves, the 3rd-longest streak by any player over the last 25 seasons.

With 2 more 10+ point halves tomorrow he can pass Jerry Stackhouse for 2nd longest streak.

James Harden: 54 in 2018-19
Jerry Stackhouse: 45 in 2000-01

 

[fidstar]

You could have given me 50 guesses and I wouldn't have had Stackhouse on that list.

Finished second in the league in scoring in 2001, averaging 30 at a time when teams were barely averaging 90. Also shot 40% from the field that season.

Game's changed, man.

So lets say the Suns decide to tank for the season if Booker stays hurt, thoughts on this trade?

Lakers get: Chris Paul, Deandre Ayton
Suns get: Russell Westbrook, Patrick Beverley, 2027 1st, 2029 1st

CP3 on his last legs and is probably closer to retiring than going around again. Ayton gives the Lakers big cover for Davis' injuries, and the Suns don't really want him anyway. Westbrook and Beverley price match the trade and both expire this year, but the Suns get the 2 prized 1st rounders that everyone wants. Frees up cap space, gives them draft capital and they can go for a high draft pick this year to pair with Booker/Bridges/Johnson.

Guess who has made the most first all NBA teams in consecutive seasons along with Lebron James (without looking it up on google)

Would have to be Karl Malone no?

But now I'm thinking it's someone weird...

Poor Bev. Always linked to CP3

 

[Memphis]

What a block by big al.

 

[Memphis]

We play so conservatively against the warriors, we need to start playing more freely.

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Farks sake, Tatum has stage fright again.

Least Jaylen has an excuse for not playing well/Rusty cause he has missed a week of Hoops.

The bi-racial Angel Klay Thompson is killing us again. Feeling a bit bitter and bad tampered at the moment.

Dubs must have circled this scheduled this game for weeks now

No it was Karl Malone, I was surprised when I heard that fact on the Simmons podcast, given he is the mostly widely disliked/loathed players of all time (Dennis Rodman once described him as a Black Man who thinks or wishes he was White)

 

[HODGEYROAD]

So good D in the Celtics vs Warriors game ? Poor shooting ? Or a combination of both ?

 

[Jimmy_the_Gent]

For the life of me, I can't work out what makes OG Anunoby so valuable. So-so shooter, so-so rebounder, a zero as a playmaker, and a pretty good defender. Somehow that's worth a king's ransom in a trade? Ok Toronto.
