2021-22 NBA season

What the Knicks should do is cease to exist.

lakefront · 12-19-2021, 08:45 PM

Bucks got blown out by the Cavs without having a single starter available.

Can be Jokic MVP in 2022?

Captain Blood · 02-11-2022, 11:25 AM

I'm a bit shocked by the Porzingis trade. I know he hasn't been a consistent regular season contributor, but if healthy, I thought he would've been a key player in the playoffs

Bad contract, plus the fact that he and Luka never meshed, it was the right move. Plus the guy cannot stay on the court consistently and unfortunately, his best days are behind him from his NY tenure.

So when will Harden want out of Philly once Embiid and him clash? This guy quit on two teams in 13-14 months? All stats and no ring.

I'm a little confused about the Harden and Simmons trade, both are less than desirable teammates so what did these clubs think to accomplish? They seem to have gotten rid of one headache only to receive another different kind. Harden has forced his way off of the Rockets, Oklahoma and now Brooklyn while Simmons has an ego and vaccine problem so he may get along with Irving.

Postings been a big disappointment. Time to pair Luka with some talent before he gets old

It's time for the Hawks to play some consistent ball. Getting annoying.

TiMSport · 02-20-2022, 01:00 PM

I didn't watch it but I heard the Dunk Contest didn't go over too well this time.

was was pretty cool watching KAT win the 3pt contest last night

F30lolz · 03-11-2022, 05:46 PM

That fat pig Harden didn’t want anything to do against Kyrie last night. And why are the Knicks winning games all of a sudden? They’re ruining their lottery position.

Captain Blood · 03-12-2022, 12:49 PM

Pop is #1! And he did it in something like 200 less games than Nelly.

Don Nelson is a quitter in my eyes as he gave up on my Knicks but can you really blame him for that? Regardless, Pop is a far superior coach over Nelson and I’ll even include Lenny Wilkins too.

Even beyond that I truly think Pop is the legend of all coaches. He's done far more with far less in a tiny market and small payroll. And the mofo did it his way for how long? Players love him, there's no racy rumors about him, no toe fetishes, no college girls on his lap while his wife is at home with the kids, no racial underlinings and all this through over 30 years in the league, 25-26 altogether I believe with the Spurs.

The man hasn't missed the playoffs but two years with the Spurs. Some time way back in 96 and last year. That's it. So basically, he hasn't had a losing record longer than some of us on these forums have been alive.

Strong cases could be made for Jackson, Riley, Red - with the other best coaches but never won a ring crowd - Nelson, Wilkins, Sloan and I'm sure there's a few more but yeah. Jackson and Riley coached what teams again and who were on their squads? Not saying their championships are discredited just Pop did it better, longer, and more importantly, he did it his way. Plus he's got 5.

We do owe Nelson for the current NBA though. He's the creator of "small-ball" that we see today. It's why they refer to it as "Nellie-ball" which I think is pretty neat, lol.

Spurs fan for 25+ yrs here
Pop owes ALOT of his success thanks to Timmy
Where was pop before and where is he after Timmy ?
Duncan would have been successful anywhere with any coach
Pop's way of coaching wouldn't have worked as well with a different superstar
He should very thankful that the GOATPUFF was so coachable

F30lolz · 03-27-2022, 08:09 AM

Because of Ultra going on in Downtown Miami, I didn’t attend the Knicks/Heat game this past Friday night. The traffic in/out and finding parking would have been brutal but was a good game for the lowly Knicks. The Heat are in trouble and playing lousy at the worst possible time.

Spurs fan here since 1978. Pop is an outstanding coach. I hope they do well in the play in game.

The Lakers have an opening for Head Coach! Who want's to walk into that hot mess?

I could see LeBron try and trade AD for Damien Lizard or leave the Lakers and go to the GSW if they were to allow it but they won’t make that happen. GM LeBron is worse than GM Jordan.

Who are you guys pulling for in the playoffs?

I think the Suns v Heat would be a great series.
