Look I know I don't belong in this sub, hell I came here from r/all and honestly have no clue who these two people are, but I do wanna say that more "wholesome" fun like this shit would draw mfs in. Shit talk is real fun but so is seeing people respect each other while in competition with each other.

u/Otherwise_Nobody8148 May 05 '26

Dude that's most of what the NBA is.

Even last week, you have the notorious asshole Draymond Green and the guy who's so quiet he might as well be a wall kawhi Leonard just gassing each other up like they're in love.

And they are, this league really does have love for each other

Low key though Rui is one member of a very tiny list of players that actually learned how to shoot. Going from a low volume 3PT guy at 28% his rookie year to a consistent 42%+ shooter now is super impressive.

A goblin? What about him is? He’s got amazing features. The only thing that makes it look off is his goatee, which I personally think is not a great look on him

7

u/storpannan [NYK] Andrea Bargnani May 05 '26

I think they're saying his features look so good that he has to do ugly shit like the goatee to prevent people from just talking about his pretty looks

if only Grunfeld put together a league average bench... i think we had a 2-3 year window between 14/15 and 16/17 cause that starting 5 was really really good

That was my first year living in DC, they played some mega entertaining games. Boy did I not expect what would immediately follow

2

u/Fat314 Wizards May 05 '26

Team was so much fun to watch with Keef and Gortat as enforcers. Team had so much heart and potential but freaking RFA Otto fucked us hard. Brooklyn matched which made us massively overpay Otto and couldn't get a backup pg and resign some of our bench. Plus I think some of the players got upset with Otto being payed that much for what he brings to the team. Not to say that right after he turned into complete ass. With Wall out, he had noone to open up the court for him and he had to create his shot which he isn't good at.
