They should have head coaches jump ball for the first possession.

[–] Lowfuji@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I'm glad he didn't lose the tip?

[–] reddit15984-3@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Imagine just a tip from a ROOKIE

[–] This_was_hard_to_do@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dont know why people complain about our big man depth, we got a HoF center

[–] PoonGo0n@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I love Steve lol

[–] fallenlion36@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

A true classic Steve moment for the league.

this is almost as comical as pop doing hack-a-shaq to open the 2008-09 season

Put all the tall people around since you’re not going to win the tip-off anyway

[–] Helicase21@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (5 children)

If you're gonna lose the tip anyways (and no way would Loon succeed with his low vert), might as well just be funny

[–] em_washington@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

And if you actually get it, it’s even more funny. Kind of turned a no-win situation into a no-lose.

[–] jamintime@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

If a game doesn’t matter, might as well just be funny.

[–] cakelamotta@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Historically, does winning the tip have any positive correlation with winning percentage?

[–] _letitsnow@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

100%

This is why I love steph

[–] Sarnaekato@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Now we know what happens when Steph jumps ball against Wemby

And they say you can't learn anything in one preseason game

[–] cough_landing_on_you@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He'll make it up by dunking on Wemby.

[–] Forbidden_Donut503@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bum. Can’t even beat a rookie.

[–] ExpectedOutcome2@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Taking a page out of the LeBron book of making everything about himself

[–] Cvspartan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

If he believed a little harder he would've got him

[–] SCalifornia831@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

And they say Magic > Steph because he can play all 5 positions 😤

[–] Aggressive_Strike75@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

WTF?

[–] ZionSmashesPStars@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

curry living his best life 😭

[–] SS324@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What are the jump ball rules? Does Wemba have to squat and jump for it? Could he just stand upright with hisn hand up?

[–] fittedsuit2018@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Wiggins face is sending me. He like ohh shit I know what gonna happen but what’s gonna happen?

[–] CPOx@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Has Steph tried being 13” taller?

[–] BrianSnow@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Steph just goofin

[–] rattatatouille@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Steve Kerr is just trolling at this point. Love it.

[–] Confuseyus@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Iguadola would have won that tip. Max Kellermen is probably rolling in his grave right now.

[–] Hungry_Upstairs_8039@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

When did he die bro

[–] Confuseyus@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Proverbial grave bro... sorry Max is still alive.

[–] Hungry_Upstairs_8039@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Thought he died when iggy announced his retirement

[–] JustAnObserver_Jomy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

the Martians blasted the earth because Max can't choose Iggy anymore

[–] venmome10cents@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

you're thinking of Wade Boggs.

Kerr: Wemby broke the code when he tripped Curry after the tip off, knowing Steph’s history of ankle injuries

[–] turtlechef@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lmao curry is lit for doing this

[–] mryessirskiii@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lmaoooooo Wiggins smiling in the back like "you sure about this bro?"

[–] Initial_Stretch_3674@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Passing of the torch..../s

[–] NickNurseABitch@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Kerr told Steph to Zaza him

[–] Ouchyhurthurt@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lol, ok I love Steph again xD

[–] Tashre@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It looks like that "how not to talk to short people" meme

[–] WestTexasCoyote@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Pure comedy

[–] kamekaze1024@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

6’0 vs 5’11

[–] IcedCoughy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Steph is so fuckin cool. Dudes living the life.

[–] Jbg12172001@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Narcissism

[–] gonzo5622@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

[–] davey_mann@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Well, alrighty then! lol

[–] cardcollection92@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Wemby shoulda did the too short celebration

[–] midnghttt@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

[–] Aromatic_Brother@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
