First time KD plays LeBron in 5 years. Should be fun.

Man EG is still tank. Solid pickup

Christian Wood has a unique ability to always fail the eye test no matter what the situation is or what his statline is

[–] richard_golbes@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Part of it is his body language.

[–] swords_devil@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

what arena is htis?

[–] thatcuntcat@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The hell is the rim

[–] SailingRelic65@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

LeBron’s seeing 3 rims

[–] metagory@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

LeBron 'bout to send out a hit on that guy.. smh

[–] cheezeflavoredick@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

who tf approved this stupid ass gradient on the court????

[–] swords_devil@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

always says Vogel is perfect coach for Lebron

but then he probably even better fit for Suns with bunch of shooter and just make them play defense

Of course against Jokic probably die like everyone else

Eubanks looks like a solid backup C, but I’m still questioning Nurkic as their starting C. We’ll see how it works out tho

[–] AlcindorJr33@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Grayson Allen stinks

Yeah Reaves on KD is just too easy

[–] stfuUzifloating@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Hayes should never ever play less than Christian Wood in any scenario

[–] Cautious-Swordfish38@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

KD vs LA

[–] SuddenCaramel728@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I don’t think it’s the rims I think they just put a microphone right fucking next to it bc even the swishes are loud as hell

[–] floatersforalgernon@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

AD is very deliberate in shooting 3s. Something to watch this season.

[–] AlcindorJr33@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

AD4DPOY

[–] Original_Trick_8552@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Hayes is nice

[–] Daconvix@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Nurkic’s pick and roll defense is horrendous

[–] redaka0@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Hayes just plays so much better than Wood. Actually sets screens and active offball

[–] honestnbafan@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

KD looks so much slower than he used to be pre-injuries but he still somehow gets the same amount of buckets lol

I wonder what prime LeBron and prime KD would average in today's offensive environment

[–] SadConfusion6@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I like what I see.

[–] Daconvix@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Man if AD gets his 3 point shot back the Lakers will be so much tougher (please don’t happen)

[–] koiz_01@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Rather have him shoot 3s all day instead defenders racking up fouls

[–] yerr2477@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

best midrange shooter ever

[–] defiantcross@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

started 1-7 and suddenly he is 6-12.

[–] metagory@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

We're getting that rim-side fan experience! Clank. Clank. Clank.

[–] VGstuffed@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Nurkic looks like Messi on TRT and HGH

[–] Dgwdum@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Sun's are cooked against any team with a good big in the playoffs

Jokic gonna average wilt numbers

[–] PumpkinHead555@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Suns are the Nets with a worse Bjg 3. They aren’t winning a chip, especially with better talent around the league

[–] CockroachForeign6419@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I feel like their big 3 is better than the nets, but their supporting cast is worse

[–] HomeMadeFriedRice@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Nurks pnr defense is still bad as ever lol

[–] CockroachForeign6419@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Nurkic is terrible bro

[–] lakeshowmagic@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I know its just the preseason, but Nurk is not looking good on either side of the floor.

[–] Vermillion_Crab@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Non Lakers fans are gonna hate Reaves even more this season lol

[–] Godreaperrr@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

These preseason games been hella physical

[–] zerofades@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

KD was fighting for his life out there and he was still getting buckets graciously lmao

[–] cheezeflavoredick@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago
