2015-16 NBA Thread (feat. the Wives)

Game of the year. This is delightful.

 

And now he beats it.

 

Blown call on that And 1 for Thompson...no one touched him, as the crowd realized.

 

Ho

 

Lee

 

OH MY GOD THAT WAS 35 FEET

 

Shit

 

Greatest shot in NBA regular season history. Period.

 

Incredible. Goddamn incredible.

 

That game was such perfect timing -- especially after Oscar Robertson's quote:

"If I've got a guy who's great shooting the ball outside, don't you want to extend your defense out a little bit?" the 77-year-old Big O said Thursday during a phone interview on ESPN's Mike & Mike show. "I just don't think coaches today in basketball understand the game of basketball. They don't know anything about defenses. They don't know what people are doing on the court. They talk about analytical basketball and stuff like that."

That followed Stephen Jackson ('07 Warriors) and Cedric Ceballos ('94 Suns) saying their teams could take the Warriors. The W's are kind of boiling a little bit about that. Draymond's mom ranted. And there's even a character: "Fat Jimmy."

 

And this was from yesterday -- can't wait to see the update:

Kerr might not be exaggerating in saying that Curry’s half-court shots are like another player’s 3-pointers. This season, Curry is 4-of-11 from beyond 39 feet, good for 36 percent. In the range between 28 and 50 feet, Curry is 35-of-52, good for an efficiency that exceeds making 100 percent of your 2-point attempts.

So who's gonna be the first -- if it hasn't already happened -- to provide the scorching hot take that someone other than Curry should be MVP?
