gabe vincent shooting 7% on 3 pointers, that's crazy

[–] Slipin@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

He’ll regress to the mean for sure, but his mean was never great–even for us. Guy showed for the playoffs and got paid because of it, but he’s a 6th man at best.

It’s 6 games into the season. A lot of stats are crazy right now

RJ is shooting over 40% from 3

[–] TheFinalEvent9797@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Yep early season shooting streaks/slumps are basically meaningless, for example players who 3pt% was way above or way below their career average for the first 10 games of 22-23 normally ended the season within 1% of their career averages.

Between the Bucks/Pistons game and the Raptors/Mavs game the refs are eye-gouging bad.

I wouldn't be surprised if the whistle was blown on 90% of positions during the second half of the Raptors/Mavs game. Someone honestly needs to be fired from both games, it actually drained so much enjoyment with how incompetent they were

Why are two east teams Orlando and Atlanta playing at 9:30 tonight?

[–] califournya@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

This scheduling is so ass man.

[–] trailblazers100@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Anyone else having issues with NBA league pass on ps5

[–] Apperzeption@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Channing Frye is genuinely great at this.

[–] 2nd-Cash-Future-1st@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Is TNT no longer doing Thursday games?

[–] WhiteShaq01@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

They really just threw the coach out the game after Giannis

[–] LgRoach2@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Whats the deal with the Pacers and Jalen Smith tonight? Dude in my fantasy league is raising hell because he was supposedly an injury scratch even though the Pacers didn't have him on the report.

[–] youarenut@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Giannis mad from getting ejected last game so now he said fuck the spread, dropped a 60 bomb and ruined the spread. Griffen backing him up. Refs and NBA gonna put a target on the bucks back now.

No special Mexico City jerseys? Missed an easy opportunity to change hawks to los Halcóns and magic to la magia

Watching Warriors v Nuggets from yesterday and the Mark Jones + JJ Reddick commentary team is clean af.

I dont want to overstate it, but whoever decided to split JJ and Richard Jeffer-twat deserves a medal. RJ is deeply insecure and spends all games taking shots at JJ, current and past players and anybody else the smug prick thinks he can insult for a cheap laugh. Unbearable, supercilious, overrated, face-underpunched, piece of hot dog vomit. Gross, repugnant, fake plastic motherfucker. Die.

If you have X, send him a screenshot. Seems only fair that the nauseating slimy grotty maggot has the opportunity to respond.

[Re-reads carefully]

Objective: Refrain from overstating RJ criticism. Status: Achieved.
