I mean how would anyone like him outside of “but he’s good at basketball” reasons. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the East is going to be real crazy down the stretch. The Bucks of course, but Miami is good too, Cleveland seems real legit, you have to assume Brooklyn will get good again but right now they’re in the play-in?? And Philly and Toronto and Boston all hitting strides after tough starts… it was such a weird start to the season but now it’s getting good. 1 Quote Fan Style ShirtsShowcasing fan-made sports apparel by artists and designers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a known locker room cancer and literally takes no responsibility. Good luck, Philly. Oh stop. They turned nothing into something. How is that only "technically" a good trade? They turned a guy who was literally refusing to play into a perennial all-star. The only knock you could possibly make on this acquisition is that Harden, at 32, may not have much time left playing at the level we're accustomed to. > But Harden's quit on two teams now! Yeah, him and every other elite player in this stupid league when they get tired of their old superteam and want a new one. How many times has LeBron bailed on a team and left them in shambles? We're currently at 3, could very well be 4 whenever he hits free agency next and takes stock of how cloudy the Lakers' future is looking after emptying the vault for that one ring and then for Westbrick. I don't think any of LeBron's new franchises have ever regretted taking him on. Also see Durant (twice) and Kawhi Leonard (also twice, with a healthy dose of petulant gaslighting on his way out of San Antonio). At least Harden, by asking for trades, allows his old team to get something back in return. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That team had plenty of time to either re-sign the player or plan for life after the player left. I agree with all your other points, though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That defense is what's been carrying them. Credit to Brad Stevens making some really good moves in his first year as GM. Unloading a bunch of bench players to clear some cap & bring Theis back, and trading a 1st round pick for Derrick White. Season really looked like a wash, but since Christmas they've really done a complete 180 and are now only 1 game out for the division. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

floydnimrod Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 This is somewhat beyond NBA-only, but I'm very confused as to the events names for All Star Weekend. Last night's events was just called "The Clorox Rising Stars". The dunk contest is just called "The AT&T Slam Dunk" (which it has been for a while, with different sponsors). Why is it not called the Slam Dunk Contest? It's still called the Three Point Shootout, I'm not sure why we're leaving off some of the nouns here. Outside of basketball, NBC has the Toyota Halftime, instead of the halftime report. of halftime show. it just sounds weird as hell.

DG_ThenNowForever Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 The only pure NBA All-Star event left -- the 3-point contest -- was just won by Karl-Anthony Towns. Good for him!
