who is craig porter?

[–] Scoducks24@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Niang is really bad

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

Randle with as many FT as the entire Cavs team

[–] Critical-Adhole@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Emoni Bates is still so underrated. He never should have fallen in the draft.

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

Who's that little white fellow for the Cavs?

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

Can the nba at least pretend that travels exist? These are atrocious no calls

[–] biinroii01@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

wow that porter move was SLICK!

[–] biinroii01@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

barrett on 🔥

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

We legit have half our summer league squad on the floor right now

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

How are refs missing clear travels, you can’t drop the ball and pick it back up

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

In a just world that’s a no call

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

Lmao.

Foul for hacking a guy's wrist on a dunk? Broke.

Technical foul because a guy didn't fall onto his defender after dunking? Woke.

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

He got T-ed up because he did a pull up on the rim, cmon people, they've been cracking down on that. Remember when it took 30 mins to fix the rim in Denver? No one wants that.

[–] MrF1993@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Is thibs wearing lipstick?

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

DMitch is so unfair.

i hate that call.

Let players emote, let tehem mean mug, let them hang on the rim. Whats the point of not allowing it? sportsmanship? the players shit talk each other the entire time so it aint that.

I would dislike watching Julius Randle on my team

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

No T for that Randle flop?

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

KAT💀I’m done

[–] EAS1000@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

NBA refs continue to impress, idiotic tech

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

People should be allowed to hang on to the rim. It's a safer dismount than if you are swinging around a bunch of momentum.

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

Stroke that shit

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

What's up with Barkley's teeth?

[–] dys0n_giddey@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

lol Gobert got a tech for hangin on the rim yesterday too.

Such a stupid rule unless the players are egregious about it

[–] Dhh05594@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Terrible call

Hartenstein is so pathetic

[–] CoachMcGuirk_1@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

KAT doesn’t contribute to winning ball. His contract doesn’t contribute to it either. Stop it chuck and stop it the rest of the media.

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

Is the TR crew doing the Tuesday show now too? Wasn’t that a different crew last season, which seems forever ago

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

Don't you wish that on us Chuck

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

Donovan if you’re reading this, please shoot more threes. Sincerely, Knicks fans

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

they should make that hanging-on-the-rim rule like 3+ seconds at least

maybe it made sense when the backboards used to literally shatter if a heavy enough guy hung on the rim, but they can take a little punishment. it would be good for guys' knees if they were allowed to hang and let themselves down

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

Why Mitchell Robinson always look exhausted

[–] Acrobatic-Reaction-7@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I love watching Randle get whacked 10 times anytime he’s in the paint but when iHart hits Thompson’s wrist when he isn’t even going up it’s automatically called.

This is probably extremely biased but defenders get more leniency against Randle than almost every other player in the league.

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

Randle is shoving people and spinning around like a beyblade, you could just as easily say he should be getting called for the offensive foul. And he got 4 FT on some pretty soft contact

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

Robert Jr? Roman Reigns?

[–] hydroflame7@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

literally a one man team with Mitchell, the rest of his team is hard to watch

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

Idk betting on a sport I like is wild cause I would have beef with irrelevant role players for no reason

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

Did I just see Awkwafina recite all the past best picture oscar winners? Shes literally just like me

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

Them long arms

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

happy to see butler getting that sponsor money

[–] CoachMcGuirk_1@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Oh yes Hulu I’m just dying to watch Sandra oh. It looks just like another “I’m quirky and weird stranger” show. Yaaaaawn.

Bates is playing pretty well

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

TT doesnt look great but he looks like he’s got something left in the tank. I can’t believe they just let jokic work AD in the playoffs without using TT at all

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

Yeah, no wonder Cav games are rarely on National Broadcast, its ugly.

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

Never doubted Bates' ability to finish.

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

The camera angle on that Brunson baseline shot 😮‍💨

Emoji Bates reminds me of another Jordan Clarkson

[–] International-Chef33@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

4th quarter to go but I thought the Cavs had more “talent” than the Knicks. Weird day when I’m rooting for the Knicks to quiet Cavs fans
