National Basketball Association - 2022/23 Season (Part 1)

You can only play the team the opponent puts on the floor.

Cleveland’s also missing its leading scorer for the entire year.

But they’re still taking care of business.

What would the Blazers have to trade? Who would you want? I assume Sabonis?

There is an nba player named David Duke Jr? I get that means his dad’s name is David Duke, but still the fuck were his parents thinking?

David Duke started and has 6 points 4 boards 2 blocks and a steal in 7 mins. That is some supremacy

Losing hundreds because a black guy named David Duke scored 30 is the only way it ends today for me

Sabonis would be welcomed. I’d guess in dealing with the Pacers Portland would be willing to deal anyone not Dame, Simons, or Little?

Had mostly +4, some +7.5…but also some ML and Durant o34.5, who finished with 34.

Almost covers my hockey losses on the night.

I don’t get half the references, but these threads are still hilarious.

Lost in the woods with no cell service is a keeper.

Ex NBAer, father of a legend. I think I’ll be OK.

Came here to post the same. My favorite part is obviously how the dots start moving back after a few years as Steph gets UNLEASHED.

Kyle Korver is 5th? I don’t follow NBA nearly as close as most of you, but I still watch a good amount. Never would have guessed he was that high.

I was more surprised by Vince Carter right below him in sixth, considering he made his mark the league as a high-flying dunker.

His foot was on the line on a few of those.

I was surprised JJ Reddick isn’t higher. Some of the guys on the list are obviously volume shooters (still impressive, though).

Good lord, Steph hit the record in 500 fewer games than Ray Allen. He made 3 more attempts per game than Ray and has a 43% to 40% accuracy edge.

It’s really crazy how many more 3s are attempted these days.

I remember back in the late 80s when Larry Bird was known as a pretty elite 3-point shooter. He would average about 3 attempts per game. These days, that wouldn’t even crack the top 100.
