Cavs so strong. Their 3 point shooting is so devastating. Honestly pretty happy with the Raptors performance. Holy shit though, can the refs fuck off.

 

[Brinbe]

Good job, good effort Raptors. Refs were absolute shit, but tough to win when you're giving up 120.

LeCavs still the only obstacle to a finals appearance.

 

[Blablurn]

lebron is the best player in the world

shut your mouth phil jackson

Refs ruined the ending of a pretty fun game.

They were running the triangle at one point, the refs

that last like 40 seconds of game time was something

 

[Kave_Man]

Well tough loss, on to the next one.

Who do we even play next?

Wednesday November 16 - Golden State Warriors @ Toronto Raptors

 

[phanphare]

lol, stephanie ready referred to thibs' face when the wolves turn it over as "resting coach face"

 

[BlackGhost]

pretty fun game.

Yes. But at the same time I want to say the raptors can't keep getting away with this

Well tough loss, on to the next one.

Who do we even play next?

Go Raptors!

Dennis needs to shoot that and not throw it to Sap with 1 second on the clock.

We gonna choke this here somehow ffs

We did it! Not the same old Hawks! Lol

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

So Josh Richardson has been more reliable overall than Winslow. I look at Devin Booker balling out and I can't help but wonder what could have been?

 

[Face it Tiger..]

Where was D8 that Hawks game..

 

[phanphare]

solid win from the hornets. they continue to play exceptionally well in the 3rd quarter. probably because they always dig themselves into a hole in the 2nd quarter tho...they really need to string together full games. aren't gonna win many games against good teams giving away a quarter like that and it's a trend so far.

also how bout frank the tank! dude looked great tonight. hitting the 3, utilizing the shot fake, putting it on the floor, posting up, exploiting mismatches, and assisting his teammates. if he continues to get his confidence level up he's gonna be a serious threat night in and night out.

 

[panthapanda]

Where was D8 that Hawks game..

Went out 3rd qtr with a left leg contusion or something.

 

[DaMan121]

WTF is happening to Portland? Clippers stole their souls.

 

[Vanillalite]

We did it! Not the same old Hawks! Lol

Still worries me it was even that close. Then again it was on the road, and even the best of teams have off nights or close games.

D'Lo hates the nets.

RUSSELL!

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Should be blowing this team out.

Nets are pretty competitive this year.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Nets are pretty competitive this year.

Nyets are kinda trash.

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

Nyets are kinda trash.

They almost beat Charlotte, so they can compete.

Anyway, Deng is TRASH.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Sloppy, sloppy win.

I'll take it...I guess.

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

This end of the month schedule is brutal.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

This end of the month schedule is brutal.

5pur5 gonna run us by about 20 on Friday if we show up like we did tonight.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Julius fucked around and got a triple double. The way he has seemingly developed into the heart and soul of this team has been the most mind blowing part of this season so far.

I think Young and Lou being competent players is MUCH MORE mind blowing.

People just gave up on Randle WAY TOO EARLY after being with Byron fucking Scott for two years. Injured his first year and a double double in what was essentially his rookie season. He was definitely the biggest victim of any player on the team from Byron's shenanigans (followed by Russell, Black, and then Clarkson, etc).

Randle is a beast and has that alpha personality that will glue this team together for years to come.

5pur5 gonna run us by about 20 on Friday if we show up like we did tonight.

Or we will run on the Spurs by 20 like we did against the Warriors.

This team is capable of beating any team on any given night. Spurs, Warriors, whoever. So bring em on.

Although these next 5 games will probably be brutal so we'll take every win the team can get here.

Do you think if you took yourself and 4 friends that if you played a regulation game you could score (not counting FTs) on an NBA team even once?

Yea.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

I would make at least 1 sky hook 3 pointer!

 

[Vanillalite]

Y'all are super confident. LoL

 

[phanphare]

just pull up from 10 feet behind the 3 point line repeatedly. they won't guard you and you're bound to clank in 1 out of however many you shoot.

 

[Surfinn]

If it's against the Kings, I'm guaranteeing I hit at least a three pointer or two.

 

[sf2fanatic]

I need to see receipts on this. :')



Also Lakers this season are scoring over 100 pts a game with ease. Last two years I was praying for them to get to 90.

You're assuming you could inbound the ball and get it over half court.

 

[phanphare]

well when you put it like that...

I was friends with seth curry growing up, can I count him and steph on my team? that's totally not cheating right?

 

[sf2fanatic]

Yeah. My buddies are at least 6'3-6'5 & just run screens

 

[panthapanda]

Sounds like a game of 2K17

 

[Vanillalite]

GAF needs this to be a separate thread. I bet a ton of people would think they could luck into a basket while underestimating what they are watching from the NBA.

 

[Servbot24]

A better question is if anyone could get a shot off, let alone make one.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

I need to see receipts on this. :')

It was my go-to fuckaround/HORSE shot when I regularly played. Had the knee lift and everything!

But that was like 15+ years ago.

 

[OldMan]

Who thinks they should take away the other sizes of basketball and keep it at 29.5 across all leagues and ages? I think they should because you'd start off at the official weight and when you look at other sports you don't have different size pucks or baseballs.

Best regards,

If it's super small you don't need to change the size like a tennis ball or a baseball.

If it's bigger you have to change the size or kids especially can't properly handle it. That's why there are different size basketballs and footballs.

Fair enough, I just think if you're going to start on a high rim might as well start with a big ball 💭

 

[FStop7]

The dudes who answer "yes" to that "score on NBA players" challenge are the same milks who yap about how they could take on UFC fighters.

Most kids don't do that either though.

Like the rim is shorter. First to third base is smaller. Soccer field is smaller ect...
