NBA 2025-26 Season Thread: THE NY KNICKS ARE CHAMPIONS! BING BONG!
Lettuce NBA!
and lettuce lol @ James Harden
The least surprising thing ever would be Knacks making the Finals and losing all five starters to the Thibs kiss of death. There's no plot you can dream that follows canon as closely as that. Although to be fair I think Cavs starters played the fewest minutes of anyone this year and they're all ded. :shrug:
I’m here to post my daily:
**** BOSTON!
think it is safe to say KP solved the "who is the luxury tax salary dump for the celtics?" question
If the Knicks don’t fall behind by 20 vs the Celtics, then they could win by 20.
Yeah Mr. White! Yeah Science.gif
I anticipated turning off this game before the end of the Q2. Seems to be tracking so far.
Moody airball from four feet.
Moody is ****ing terrible. That was legit one of the worst airballs I've ever seen.
25-7
Warriors might score sub 60.
Warriors were too obsessed with “two timelines” (which is damn near difficult to achieve and actually requires a ton of luck to be successful) and should’ve looked to maximize Steph then and there years ago by trading those damn picks.
Lol Moses Moody.
Warriors catching up
What's the record for airballs in a single NBA playoff game?
Warriors no longer catching up
Draymond suspension idea.
Clearly he needs another timeout from the nba so I say the nba suspends him 5 games at the start of next season.
He has 2 options.
1-play the 5 games without pay.
2-sit out with pay
Either way there's a sting to each option like looking like a bad teammate who takes the money.
Warriors are probably cooked. Draymond decided to spend his time in the post game talking about how the league has an agenda against him, which means that he was gone into "dgaf if I get suspended" mode. It's a ridiculous time for him to go into this mode because the tech in game 2 was bog standard. You can't flail out with your arm and hit a guy in the head just because you are annoyed with how closely the guy is guarding you. Maybe the guy is leaning on you. Maybe it's a foul. But if you respond that way, it's a guaranteed tech/flagrant, no matter who you are.

This is a SuperMegaElite post
Throwing shade an Moody seems mis-directed. He's a Pick 14 who had played 260 playoff minutes before this season (most of them junk time).
Moody finished the season really well. Fell off a cliff during these playoffs though. It's not like we have other options.
Fiddy relax. It’s just McMuffin having some fun.
Pretty sure the Celtics would trade Tatum for Moody right now if they could.
Playing Merrill ahead of Jerome is a key adjustment
Jerome's pts prop was 20.5 like 48 hours ago, what a ride
Donovan Mitchell is actively carrying his nuts around in a wheelbarrow right now.
I did exactly ONE simulation on Tankathon and the Spurs won the lottery with their own pick.
They have 6% from theirs, and 0.7% from ATL pick to land #1.
I think it would be fun if we all did just ONE simulation from Tankathon and see who "got it right" for this Monday's Lottery.
