NBA 2024-25 Season Thread

Draft is supposed to be historic levels of awful (think like 2000).

that and the final 20 seconds of the first half were brutal, just can't do that ****, but MN sports failure is inevitable so it goes.

The full OG experience 🙄 He is an amazing player, am happy he is getting WAY MORE visibility and appreciation playing in NYC and give the guy his monies, but am happy with the TO return and that we will not have to pay his injury prone body what, 35-40mil moving forward...

Knicks fans are cursed.

Randle goes down.
Bogie goes down.
Mitch goes down.
OG playing best game of his life, 28 pts thru 3Q, Knicks about to go up 3-0 and he goes down.

how quickly the thread loves randle again once he's not playing

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

If we’re talking borderline top 10 of the coaches in the current nba I can abide by that

To hear people talk over here he’s firmly cemented himself as top 10 all time which I think is ****ing insane. I’d take spo over him in a heartbeat if I could

There were a lot of individual moments that lost the log dogs that game but I’m going to go to my grave believing the steal and 50 foot 3 at the half was the dagger

Yes, we would all take the #1 coach in the NBA over our team's coach.

You say that like this is a lol duh but you have no idea how many kerr truthers argue spo isn’t even top 5 and kerr is top 2

just seeing this now, and yeah that's fairly backbreaking. damn

That was a comment on Spo rather than on Kerr.

Spo should be the near-unanimous #1 now that Pop is just having fun. Anyone that says otherwise is wrong and should be mocked.

sounds like labald is gonna make the lolkers waste a draft pick on bronny lol:

https://defector.com/bronny-james-cant-b...

seems undraftable even in a woat draft, but i guess they'll pick him just so they can all save face, instead of just signing him as an udfa right after, if they really want an off-brand antetokounmpo type mascot hanging around. smrt

Alternatively, they could hire Bronny as the head coach.

I think he is a good coach but not the worst spot when the team doesn't really have any expectations every year since LeBron left.

His decision in 2022 to stick with PJ Tucker over playing with more spacing/shooting in Caleb Martin (who crushed the Celtics in the next years ECF) and thus allowing Rob Williams to wreak havoc hanging out in the dunker spot all series was pretty bad, he got off it in the final game but it was too late.

Just type of thing no one cares about when you're not really expected to win.

I would bet money bronny doesnt windup on a lebron team if I could (doesnt seem like anyone has straight odds on that)

The idea of LeBron playing with his kid sounded nice 5 years ago but I think he now knows his kid being the teams 14th man is a bad look. And I doubt his kid would even want that, he's just gonna be a meme. Doesn't his kid make millions in NIL? Why would he wanna go to the nba to be some scrub?

His kid probably wants to run groupie train on the road even if he is a scrub, can't really be doing that with your dad around either.

i don't even get why he's turning pro, unless they think his value will never be higher than now (lol), and this woat draft is his only chance of being an nbaer for even 15 minutes

if you think he actually has talent, he needs to play and develop somewhere

Mitchell out. I don’t remember a time when so many star players missed playoff games

History will not be kind to this era of the nba

Celtics are only -12.5 now. I think there was a rounding error.

It should be -32.5.

Draft is terrible so Hawks should just use the #1 pick on Bronny and see what happens.

What’s hilarious is this isn’t a bad idea at all

Do a little tampering, tell bran if he opts out and signs with them they’ll make Bronny #1, do some sort of sign and trade to get out from under collins or murphy. Profit?

Collins is on Utah already SRM.

It's okay, you're still the #1 SE Poster in my book.
