2023/2024 NBA THREAD: WHO WANTS TO GO ON PARADE?!?

[cinnepa]

Fixed.

You picked up a nice player for D in springer... but he can't shoot

[TahoeJ]

What’s Embiid’s estimated time line? If he’ll be back in time all they do is need to make the play in tourney.

[cinnepa]

^^Hopefully

Somehow forgot I had tickets to tonight's Sixers Hawks game for the family tonight. Hield and Payne not likely available yet, and we.just shipped out 4 dudes so.......

G Leaguers.... Assemble!
Terq and KJ Martin legacy games incoming 🤣🤣🤣

[The Reverend Floater]

Blazers just upended the league, shocking fans and pundits alike and increasing their odds as a Western Conference Champion to near certainty with the last second acquisition of...(checks notes, flips page, checks more notes) uhhh...Dalano (rereads note, confers with colleague)...Banton! Bandon, a 6'8 guard from nobody-fucking-cares, will become the Blazers 19th guard on the roster and his 2.3pts, 1.5 board and sub-1 assists per game should be just enough to get past the Nuggets, Thunder or my daughter's U9 basketball team.

Sources say that Brandon Dano was shocked to be traded right after watching the all Star game from his house, somewhere in Delaware.

Had to be kinda embarrassing to lose at home to the lowly Pistons...

It worked for Joe Flacco.

Steph Curry is fucking incredible.

[concretejungle]

Doc Rivers haters are having a field day right now. Last night versus the G League Grizzlies was hilarious. As an NBA fan I had a window open so I knew who the fuck was on their team. Also, Dame is looking cooked. Too bad Giannis is on that trash team as he is killing it.

[AdironRider]

Doc continues to amaze me how he keeps getting jobs. I hope Garnett is getting a cut of his checks because Doc has made an absurd amount of money off that one year he just sat on the sideline and watched KG cook.

[BmillsSkier]

Donovan really needs to start getting some national attention when it comes to MVP discussions.

[riser4]

How did the Bucks go from Champs to dumpster fire so quickly?

[TahoeJ]

It’s almost like the Bucks blew a 3-1 lead…

Hey Giannis, we’d love to see you team up with Steph out West.

[EWG]

This made me laugh till I really thought about it. Now, as a Nuggets fan, it’s making me slightly concerned. Until Steph’s wheels fall of someday he and Giannis would be a serious problem. They are pretty much perfect for each other.

[EWG]

In other news, it might be time to start getting slightly concerned about the Nuggets. They’ve been coasting, but injuries are starting to catch up to them.

I too got a good laugh out of this.

I think the Bucks current woes are Doc related. I could be wrong.

[TahoeJ]

They already have almost as many losses with 10 games under Doc as they did in the first 40 games. Lol…

[garyfromterrace]

Great article on Jokic. https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2...ketball-player

[cinnepa]

Doc......hahahaha.

[concretejungle]

Doc......hahahaha.

Every fucking time with this guy.

Winning back to back titles is really hard. But come playoff time I suspect you will see Jokic flip the switch. Not that he’s playing poorly but we’ve seen LeBron, Steph and many others do this in recent years. Denver still the favorites (for the West) in my opinion.

My reverse jinx of counting the Warriors out seems to be working but still not a believer yet. How many close games can one team lose? The free throw discrepancy has been bullshit (worst in the league, they’re the anti Lakers) but they’ve still had plenty of opportunities to close out those games regardless.

Also- how awesome was Sabrina in the shooting contest against Curry? Insisted on shooting from the same NBA arc - what a badass.

Well, yeah. She's an Oregon Duck!

Another thing with the Nuggets: during the regular season they use a backup center, in the playoffs Gordon will eat up most of those backup 5 minutes, which makes an enormous difference for them.

[TahoeJ]

Yep. Playoffs NBA is a different sport, which is why I’m still skeptical about the Timberwolves until proven otherwise.
