Topic: 2022-2023 NBA Season - Draft Day to Playoffs

[oznola]

This is what I don't really understand with LBJ.  It all started with The Decision...then followed by self declarations of being the greatest of all time.

You let your body of work do the talking.  No need for self declarations.  Let your game speak volumes about your legacy.

Baka old school thinking lang talaga ako hehehehe

tama ito regardless which school you are enrolled no self declarations needed for greatness. let your achievements do the talking.


related to trade talks and deadlines, ang laking stress din nito sa mga players. not knowing if they will be on the trading block, if they do get traded ang dami nanaman nila magiging adjustments from one city to another, lipat bahay pa yan, bagong team mates, bagong pakikisama....

hindi din madali ang ma-trade basta basta for any player.

[JeromeA]

rings above all stat

so Bill Russell is the GOAT

[JeromeA]

38...

Lebron scores 38,388
He scored 38pts against OKC
He is currently 38yrs old
February 7 is the 38th day of the year
Kareem hold the record for 38yrs
23 + 6 + 9 = 38

[oznola]

greatest scorer. there. done and over with

[stevesonk]

38-38-38.. achievement.. timing..? lost, lose, loser.., but what i see..?! greatest achievement of an athlete as a basketball player, congrats LBJ panget..!! sorry sa die hard fans..

[oweidah]

so Bill Russell is the GOAT

ikaw nagsabi nyan. c bill russell at mj, hindi nagyabang na sila ang goat. walang ala kiko matsing, este king kong gorilla chest thumping theatrics 😛✌️🙏🙏 + flopping 🤣

[Wiggum]

According to various reports, the Lakers, Timberwolves and Jazz are engaged in talks for a possible multi-player trade which could send D’Angelo Russell, Malik Beasley and Jarred Vanderbilt to LA, Russell Westbrook to Utah, and Mike Conley to Minnesota. The possible deal will also include draft compensation with pick protections. Westbrook would then be reportedly bought out by the Jazz.

^^^ Trader Danny brewing his magic once again.

Michael Jordan: “If I’d play for the stats, I’d never retire in 1993? Or I’d still be chasing all-time Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s scoring lead. That doesn’t drive me. It’s all about winning championships and winning. The stats that matter to me is games that we win and rings that you collect.”

[Wiggum]

All-Star Reserves Announced

For the East, I also thought Jalen Brunson was a shoo-in. Same for DeAaron Fox in the West.

Brunson and Fox might get the chance to be named All-Star reserves after Kevin Durant, Steph Curry and Zion Williamson have all been officially confirmed as out for the All-Star game next week. It’s not also clear how the NBA intends to deal with Kyrie Irving’s move to the West in this scenario.

[JeromeA]

ikaw nagsabi nyan. c bill russell at mj, hindi nagyabang na sila ang goat. walang ala kiko matsing, este king kong gorilla chest thumping theatrics 😛✌️🙏🙏 + flopping 🤣

ha? para kang anak kong 2yrs old makipag usap ah. hahaha

nagbase lang ako sa rings statement mo para ka na agad inagawan ng kendi..

ramdam ko bitterness mo ah..

and for the record MJ still the GOAT for me. .

tumahan ka na. tantrum kaagad eh.

Ito ang ayaw ko kay lebron yun siya nagsasabi na sya ang the best ever. Parang mayweather lang hehe kaya marami haters nya eh

SPOT ON!

[Own7]

Simple lang sa akin goat talk. Sino sa mga previous and current
Nba players ang gusto mo to take the last shot pag crunch time.

Baka nga ill take kyrie, durant and curry over lebron anytime.

[synchro_01]

I have a feeling that yesterday's game was the last game of RW wearing the Purple and Gold. 

24 hours till the trade deadline is closed.

[Own7]

Kahit umabot ng 50k pts si lebron, he will never be
“The goat” as i find it hard to swallow some semblance
Of artificiality in his accolades.

He’s my far 2nd though.

[Own7]

Sa golden state wala atang trade movement ah?

Kailangan nila i despose sina wiseman at kuminga
If they want a championship this year.

[Own7]

yung 6 championship ni jordan eh siya rin pala
nakakuha ng scoring title.💪🐏

pero syempre daking will hold this new record forever, and
mga 5 years pa iyan sa liga.💪🐃

That's not old school thinking. You are being taught correctly by your parents how to be humble in life and have the correct principles.

[Moks007]

The best thing about Lewannabe proclaiming himself the goat is he is wearing the number 6 tag in his jersey honoring Russell. Im not saying Russell is the goat. Like i say, there is no goat. But just the respect you have to give to other players who played in different eras.

Mj said it best. No disrespect.

[synchro_01]

Bye Bye Russel Westbrook.  Good riddance.

I like this trade for the Lakers

D'Lo is averaging 18ppg and 6 APG while shooting almost 40% from three.  This guy is a former All Star and has shown maturity already since the Swaggy P brouhaha.
Malik Beasley is averaging 13ppg with a 36% shooting from the three.  Very nice rotation piece.
Jared Vanderbilt is averaging 8ppg and 8rpg and is a solid rotation piece as well

The Lakers gave up the worst shooting guard in the NBA from three and the most turnover prone player in the league in RW.  They also lost Toscano Anderson and Damian Jones both of whom do not even get minutes.  They gave up the 2027 First round draft pick as well.

Mr. Ice in his Veins is back in LA.

They are only 4 games out of the 4th spot in the playoff seeding.

buti nakahanap willing partner ang Lakers

[Tha_Mann]

wow, finally LAL got rid of RW! although I feel bad for RW right now, he's been a professional with his situation in LA and never said or acted anything bad. yung lang, bad fit talaga sya sa Lakers from the very start.

I like this trade, good complementary players, better than getting Kyrie. not sure kung may mga expiring contracts na, pero sana they'll keep this roster for 2-3 yrs.

[Own7]

bu buyout ba ng utah jazz si wesbrook after the deal? why
naman eh mukhang good fit naman sa kanila. gamitin na lang
nila.

D'Lo has an expiring contract.  If he shows good fit then they might offer a 2 year extension.

Russel Westbrook might be a buy out candidate.

[synchro_01]

Danny Ainge and the UTA Jazz now have 15 first round picks till 2029.  This guy knows what he is doing.

This was the guy who drafted Jason Tatum, Jaylen brown, Marcus Smart in order to resurrect BOS from the Post Big 3 era of Garnet, Pierce and Allen.

aw expiring contract na pala si D'Lo. pero I think good fit pa din sya than RW hehe

RW pag na buy out, after a month pwede bumalik sa Lakers

first stepfather and son duo sana sa NBA
