NBA 2024-25 Season Thread
Lettuce NBA!
and lettuce lol @ James Harden
yes. can't handle the swongs
Lakers are going to win it all.
I don’t have a high opinion of JJ Redick as a coach but I don’t think he’s a complete moron.
So he should be able to realize to stagger LeBron/Luka so there’s always one of them on the court at all times.

Do we have much reason to think JJ is a bad coach thus far? We won't know until the playoffs, but the vibes seem good, and they have played very well the last couple of weeks.
****
Wonder what happened .
My guess is something with Mark’s physical.
It seems to be the speculation, and my money is definitely not on Dalton haha.
The Hornets can’t even trade right.
Nurkic has to be so pissed right now
He’ll have plenty of playing time when Williams is inevitably injured again.
It’s official it was Williams failing his physical .
his physical included sucking Bron off and he refused
my tinfoil is silver was too cowardly to veto the luka trade so he did that one instead
OKC without Chet/Dort/Wallace, 2nd night of back to back on the road vs #2 team in the west on 2 days rest, Thunders win in a blowout. Best reg season team ever.
LOL at Davis dinged up to lower body in first game. The city of Dallas is in an uproar. I guess they are thinking they can title with Kyrie/AD duo ... and Luka is redundant or George Gervin type?? Don't ask me. Maybe it was an unworkable relationship for billions just had to ship him.

This post aged well.
Maybe Jaxson Hayes can become the next great Lakers center by the playoffs?
I think the need for a big time center is very overrated in today's NBA. The Warriors won those titles without one, and dominated without one as well. Hayes is a good lob finisher.
Hayes has done better this year but he won’t be able to stay on the floor during a playoff series.
*checks lakers center depth* ouch
On another note, catching up on the end of the Magic-Spurs game. Franz is trying to save a loose ball and he's jumping going to obviously end up out of bounds but he calls a timeout in the air just before he lands OOB
Timeoutgiven, possession Magic with 28sec left and Paolo hits the game winner
FIBA rules >>
Isnt that a reflection of what kind of volatility we can see in a too much focus 3pts basket strategy can bring ?
Yeah, basically. Feels like every game now a team is going up or down 15 and erasing that. It's just what the game is when it's based almost entirely around a large series of low probability events.
Pacers shot 19% from 3 in the 1Q yesterday and went down 22. Ended up losing by 5.
The night before, Bucks go up 21 and Hawks come back to win.
Just keep shooting 3s
I wouldn’t mind if the NBA removed the 3 point line.
The correct answer that will never happen is probably to switch to 3s and 4s. Obviously idiots fans would call it "woke" or whatever, and it would **** up records, but if longer shots were worth 33% more rather than 50% more, the EV proposition gets more even i think.

This will never happen because it would threaten LeBron’s scoring all time record.
But yeah I’ve heard of that idea and it is probably the correct one.
Magic Johnson played center when they needed him to. Now the King can follow his footsteps
