Play Nice The Official Bigfooty NBA Week 15 thread

Indeed. They were really only a bee's wang away, lost so many Game 7's and whatnot.

The 1993-94 season was one of my all-time favourites because of how open it was, and how most of the contending teams were very even in terms of ability and roster build. You could get away with one star and a deep team back then, which is exactly how the Rockets, Knicks, Pacers etc were built.

It's kinda unfortunate that it's gone down in history as 'the non-Jordan' year, or perhaps the 'OJ Simpson' year.

Although not technically from the same year, I'll raise you this:

I think it's a load of shit a player can just decide he doesn't want to play and sit out like Smith.

You're literally getting paid $50k+ per game to play basketball. You should play.

I’m glad he hasn’t played the mental health card. Others may have.

I remember that from the magic 30 for 30

Smits always pump fakes, don't bite.... lol

Where's Billy

Big time players make big time plays.

Vintage Rose. So beautiful to watch.

Like I said, we always get who we target......it just happens 5 years later.

We better keep him though, our tank needs him.

Just give you the tank trophy now!!

Cleveland is an abomination of a franchise, they should be kicked out of the league and replaced with Seattle.

At least the cavs can tank properly

Myles is turning into a real candidate for DPOY.

Won't happen while LeBron is alive. He'll probably just buy them when he retires. That and it would be a disgrace to get rid of a team only a few years after winning the championship (even if it was all LBJ).

You just have to use your imagination.

Melo and Wade joining the Bulls back in 2011.

This is why Kyrie left...

Brooklyn 25-23

Nice.

 

[Special Agent Utah]

Memphis are getting worse and worse , Gasol is going to get traded.

Blown out at home by Pels with no AD

Speaking of him, he needs 3 more steals for a triple double

1-12 in their last 13. 100% for the 14th seed now in the West.

I'm not sure you'd actually get much for a 33 year old Gasol. He's on 24M a year with a 15% trade kicker.

They should have traded him last year, was a strange decision to tank yet keep him

Even last year I'm not sure what they would have gotten. Next season he's getting close to 30M a year if he gets traded.

I'm not sure they are intentionally tanking.

Surely no one can actually enjoy watching the Rockets heave 60 3s a game?

It's ugly.

So ugly.

But it works.

You're not tanking, you're just a horrible franchise that can't build anything other than the shittest team in the NBA without LeBron.
