2024-2025 NBA thread: who wants to buy a Duck Boat?!?!

What’s going on Cleveland? [emoji639] straight losses?

[Jadams_]

Denver is a very weird team. They beat OKC handily and then lose to the wizards and blazers. lmao. I want to believe they can just flip a switch when the playoffs start but idk.

No Jokic for wizards and blazers.

On the other hand, they have been off and on. I kinda think they’ll show up for the playoffs. The 2 or 3 seeds is a big deal compared to the 4, however.

[BmillsSkier]

Cavs trying to get all those last losses out before the games start counting.

[brutah]

Don’t worry, the jazz are here to help any team break their losing streak

[Cruiser]

Does the complete disarray that the nuggets have been in the last 5 games without Jokic make his MVP case more compelling

[TahoeJ]

Can I just say how great the play-in tournament format is? The games themselves are fun, but more so it creates a real dog fight amongst teams coming down the stretch to land in the 5-6 seed and avoid being 7-10. It's pretty great. Look at the West right now.

[Danno]

Agreed, the play in is a great new wrinkle that creates many more meaningful games in March and April

[BobMc]

Lillard out indefinitely with a blood clot.

[I Skied Bandini Mountain]

Jokic still pretty good at basketball

Final 12.6 seconds of Bulls-Lakers:

^^^ Holy shit

[plugboots]

Everybody needs to watch that. One of the few times where somebody says “wait till the end” actually pays off.

[Danno]

that's insane. I read about it last night but seeing it is something else.

and the announcer with the Redd Foxx call was hysterical.

[BobMc]

Hell yeah, although it got closer than I would’ve liked, watching the Pistons beat the Cavs was fun. No Cade, no Tobias, no problem.

[I Skied Bandini Mountain]

Great games out west tonight with teams trying to stay out of a play-in spot. I've sat my ass down all night watching GSW vs Griz and Nuggets vs TWolves and don't regret it at all.

[Danno]

Nikola Jokic, good at basketball

[Danno]

But Westbrook loses them the game

[I Skied Bandini Mountain]

Crazy. Great games.

[cinnepa]

Westbrook doing Westbrook things.

[Danno]

he's definitely been a net positive for them but that was bad.

[riser4]

I finally drag myself to my first NBA game and WTF Celtics?!?!?!

[TahoeJ]

So does Ja get a fine or suspension? How goofy is this private school wannabe gangster?

I watched it live and on a bunch of replays, and one does show Buddy Hield kinda egging him on a little bit at first. Nonetheless, if Buddy did, he shoulda waved it off and gave Buddy the eff-off, but noooooooo…
Apparently, Buddy Hield was doing the “ice in his veins” thing (which actually makes sense since Butler was shooting free throws), and then Morant replied.

[I Skied Bandini Mountain]

I don't see Ja getting a suspension at this point of the season and where theyre at in the playoff race, unless he does something really dumb which is entirely possible because we are talking about Ja Morant.
