NBA 2025-26 Season Thread: THE NY KNICKS ARE CHAMPIONS! BING BONG!
Lettuce NBA!
and lettuce lol @ James Harden
Weird game between Sixers/Knicks.
Horrific 3rd Q for the Sixers lmao
I don't need any convincing on Knueppel. The three-point shooting is very, very real. The only question is how much additional volume he can handle without significantly degrading his efficiency. Offensively, he already looks the pre-injury version of Klay Thompson, which is really impressive for a rookie who only played one year in
No no, I think he’s legit too. I know the Jazz were desperately hoping MJ still owned the Hornets and took Bailey.
Nothing like a mid day spanking, and Kon isn't even playing that well!
Hornets may win by 60. Make it 75!
2026 Offseason Prediction:
Warriors trade for Giannis
And sign LeBron for cheap and FINALLY we get Steph/LeBron pairing.
That would be fun.
One thing is certain. If Giannis plays another game for the Bucks this year, he is insane.
Bucks 100% need to shut Giannis down for the season. Perfect time to tank since they basically control their first round pick this year.
Offseason, you put an extension in front of him and he either signs it or you trade him for max value you can get in future picks and youth.
LeBron would sacrifice monetarily for Steph and he’d be a short flight from L.A.
Bronny can come too!
Old 2p2 Meme:
If you put Giannis with Steph and LeBron, you could pair them with Bobbo Fitos and Assani Fisher wearing oven mitts and they’d still go 82-0!
I'd want fallguy in there. He had some length iirc. Bobbo would be a good sixth man.

Lucky they have Doc as coach.
The Milwaukee Bucks do not fully control their 2026 first-round draft pick. As part of the 2020 Jrue Holiday trade, the New Orleans Pelicans hold the right to swap first-round picks with the Bucks in 2026, meaning Milwaukee will receive the less favorable of the two selections.
Bron finishing out his career in CLE would be pretty cool.
Also hilarious seeing the NY media being so done with KAT, LMAO.

That’s why I said basically. Any result where they’re having to swap with NO, they’re still getting a high pick. It does limit the upside since they can’t get the #1, but them and NO are both gonna have high picks in this scenario.

Bucks are pretty lucky there isn't that much difference in the top 3 prospects and they're all type A-MAZING.
His release is wild. I love it.
Like I said, the league is in trouble.
if I'm the Pistons I want NONE of what Charlotte is dishing out if they are the #8 seed.
Spoiler
BUZZ BUZZ
Where is Giannis landing and when? This offseason or by trade deadline?
If I'm Sam Presti I move JDub and iHart for him.. If you can pair SGA, Giannis, and Chet (Who is a PERFECT fit next to him as a stretch-5 who protects the rim) WITH their depth you absolutely have to do it. They've also shown in the past 2-3 weeks that they aren't as good as we all thought they were to start the season.
However, It's Sam Presti's style to NOT trade for Giannis. So I would be super surprised if he does it.
Personally, I have my doubts Giannis forces himself to NYK. I don't know where he will be traded to --- anyone's guess really imho --- but the Blazers will be getting a player they Absolutely want because they control the Bucks picks which can be kicked back to them in a 3-team day.
