NBA 2024-25 Season Thread
Lettuce NBA!

Porzingis coming back a lot sooner than I anticipated.
Knicks destroy the Nuggets tonight:
145 - 118.
The Knicks are an Offensive Juggernaut!!!
OG went BIBLICAL with a Jesus Piece!
40 pts tonight, and ALL within the flow of the offense. 16/23 fg and 5/7 from 3.
Brunson 17 assists tonight.
Both career highs.
45 assists (a league wide high this season and ties a Knicks record).
KAT ****ed around and got 30/15/4.
7 Knicks in double figures.
THE ENTIRE LEAGUE IS ON NOTICE!!!
The Nugs are officially Jover.
(That's pronounced YO'vuhr.)
Late notes from the Spurs/GSW game last Saturday.
-Wemby is just nuts in person. He played pretty crappy for 3 quarters, looked winded and slow, then dominated for like 6 minutes and the game was over. He dropped a couple threes and got his confidence and energy up and all of a sudden he’s blocking every shot, setting everyone up, involved in everything. Does he take too many 3s? I dunno, when you see it happen it’s very clear he can get it uncontested whenever he wants with very minimal effort and honestly he’s not strong enough to set up on the block. All his paint scores were either set-ups or came from face ups where he euros from the top of the key in two steps.
-Draymond looks old AF. Don’t think he jumped more than twice, giant ice bags on both knees as soon as he sits down every time.
-Castle is a real one. Dogged Curry, hit a three in his face for the go ahead. Great hair. Crowd loves him.
-Think GSW fades unless they trade for a scoring wing. Buddy is basically their #2 option, and then they have no one who can create anything.
Wouldn't it be something if James set his personal best for triple doubles in a season in his turn 40 season? He's got a good shot. His high was 18, got 6 this season early on.
It's got to be a little bit rare to have 5 teammates with 20 points in a game?? Doncic-less Dallas missed by one point tonight.

wouldn't surprise me at all if he did it

1. Trade Luka to the highest bidder.
2. ?????
3. Profit
It's Payton Pritchard's world...
...we're just living in it.
Luka to the Spurs.
Donoval Mitchell destroyed the celtics down the stretch

Fade is real imo. GS needed Kuminga or Podz to to take a step forward. Kuminga has remained the same inconsistent guy he has been for the last two years, and Podz seems to have regressed. The team is deep, but someone even more dependent on Curry to score in crunch time than in previous years. Bottom line is that Buddy started the season on a huge heater, which made this team seem more talented offensively than it really is. Losing the team's best perimeter defender for the year hasn't helped either.
Knicks wrecking the Magic.
Their offensive ceiling is THROUGH THE ROOF!!!
33 points a game on 61% shooting? Giannis. This will make 8 straight seasons of 25 or more per game with 10+ boards and way over 50% shooting. A few more years of his current level and it goes in the GOAT Debate thread instead of the season thread. He and Durant making their move.
Jokić is the GOAT
NBA season still on?

Melton loss was huge. Perfect fit for the starting 5. Also took the responsibility away from Wiggins of having to take the other teams best wing giving him more energy on offense.
Even when cruising I still thought best case was the 5th or 6th seed.

I agree. Huge loss.
They really need to make a trade for a replacement wing.
LeLoser needs to hang it up
I may have to reconsider my Trae Young hate in light of recent results.
I still haven’t watched many Hawks games this year, but these box scores are crazy and encouraging

Acquiring Dyson Daniels, who's really coming into his own, has been a FANTASTIC fit with Trae.
Ice Trae with the game winner!!!
O-Town can't catch a break. First, Banchero and now Franz is out indefinitely.
1. For someone who truly hates basketball, Joker is insanely good at it
2. Joker putting up that line and losing to ****ing Washington should be a fire on sight offense for all parties involved
