NBA 21/22

Harden wants a max deal 😆 .

Boston will win it all, no doubt. Luka destroyed another franchise today, CP3 will forever be a choker, it must be his 7th series where he started 2-0 only to fuck it all up. I'm happy he will finish with no rings, he is a prick.

Agree about Paul.

Really hoping the Celtics can do it this year. Miami is tough though and have home-court advantage. Celtics, led by Tatum, have shown to be a bit less reckless and more in control this post-season, even in difficult and high-pressure situations. Udoka has done great so far. Hopefully they can keep it up.

Also, if the Warriors don't up their game, they'll get bounced by the Mavs.

Luka reaching a conference finals before Embiid, Simmons.

C's prevailed, and a magical 2022 rolls on. In honesty, it should have been 5 to 6 game series. Officiating was so stressful and C's took pedal off in 4th quarter in 1-2 losses, both contributing to longer series. There are so many challenges ahead, not getting ahead of myself to that degree. Rob Williams needs to be on the court at some point and its still not looking great after Giannis charged into his knee. C's cutting Strus before the start of the season, hopefully don't regret that.

Punk ass overrated Booker. Bye bye. Ugh that stupid Anthony Davis, I miss lebron in the play offs.

Recently heard about this kid Wembanyama, who's a year away from being NBA eligible. Wow, what a talent.

He's 17, which means he's still got some growing to do? Even if he grows just half a foot taller, with his skillset how does anyone guard that? Crazy.

Everything up until the conference finals was a lot fun.

Great to see Embiid and the Sixers flame out again. Would love nothing more than their years of celebrating winning 10 wins a season earned them a couple of second round exits and a washed up 35 year old fat man on +50m a season wasting Embiid’s prime. Enjoyed watching their fans boo them off the court after their best player played through a broken face and a fucked thumb. Looking forward to more of the same next season.

Gsw against either of the Eastern conference team should be fun. Been high on Boston for months so my money is on them.

KingslandBarge

Dont forget them turning on Doc Rivers, who seems to be staying.

The East has been in the wars and is so beat up compared to GSW. That includes Sixers, Bucks in addition to Heat and Celtics. Lowry's chunky ass landed on Marcus Smarts ankle whilst, Giannis charged straight into Rob William's recently operated knee. Both of them compromised for a pivotal game 5 coming up and may not play. I'm worried about escaping the ECF's much less being competitive against GSW.

C's have brought all sorts of casuals back on board; glad to see Saka kicking it with Neismith.

Big Willie

Shouldn't one of the kits say Naismith? Like Naismith got Saka a kit with Saka's name on it, makes sense to get Naismith an Arsenal kit with Naismith on it.

Also, who is this Naismith? Is he meant to be a big star?

KingslandBarge

Had to post these

Absolutely fantastic end to the calendar year for my precious Celts and Gunners. After both suffering a heartbreak summer, now sitting top of the league respectively. Celts end calendar year 60-22 (top), Arsenal end it with 77 points after 35 games (3rd, just two points off City and Liverpool's record)

Big Willie
Update: He's gonna make in the NBA, coming along nicely with the Pacers. Like I said, boy flies to the rim.

KingslandBarge

All good questions. I'm not sure whats going on either to be honest and may actually have been led astray; That looks like what is now an older Arsenal home kit. Maybe Saka brought an extra, or dipped into a generic store in Boston. Celtics jerseys however can get custom printed right on stadium grounds I believe.

Nesmith is just a promising all-action rookie. Super athletic and brave, puts his body in all sorts of danger flying to the rim. He should take the next step in 2023, but far from certain if he becomes anything like a starter in the NBA or star.

Saka is the star here. Naismith is a no namer. Hardly ever makes their rotation.

Qwiss

I'm guessing Naismith is the only Celtic with New Balance then?

flobaba

No clue what the connection between both players is tbh. But I'd very much doubt that.

Dubs in 5…or 6 at worst

KingslandBarge

Dubs are favorites, yes. Thats some nonchalant disrespect though, particular against a ball club with the best (winning) record against GSW since their dynasty began. At least game been recognizing game for last 5-6 years

arsedocmd

Yea it should be a sweep actually. Everything fell into place for the warriors nicely. Injuries happened at the perfect time, everyone well rested at appropriate times during the season, they have a great mix of experience and youth to help through various phases of a game, and also the experience under the big lights etc etc.
Big boy Williams would be such a key though.

KingslandBarge

It should be a sweep for whom?

arsedocmd

Fucking three point shooting contest all over. Hate this shit.
