NBA 2023-2024

Lot's teams with a personality i can get behind this year. Clippers, Dallas, Phoenix, Denver, Oklahoma. Cleveland and even Miami and Indiana.

Harden had another triple double just now. He is on 8th place all time. By the end of the season he should move up to 7th.
 
Clippers vs Milwaukee this afternoon. Good game for a rainy Sunday afternoon.
 
Indiana is playing Brooklyn tonight, this should be a layup for Indiana. 😥
 
The referees have certainly been eating their whistles since the ASB.
 
Sure would be nice to see Houston catch the Lakers.

How was ‘Angry Zion’ against your Nets last night?
Would you choose NO, OKC, or MIN?
Yanni’s out again tonight, this time at Boston.

Healthy, Minnesota.

My Net's suck. As bad a I predicted.
I am honestly astounded that so many felt this was a playoff team.
I said and continue to maintain what has now been proven, this is not even a play in team.

Honest, Bridges as your one?
I was furious they signed Cam Johnson for 22 million per. He is a rotation player. 2nd man off the bench.
Terrible team with lot's of good rotation players. Not a one would start on a championship team.

The regular season goes to way too late a date of 4/14, even if they keep 82. They already complain on back-to-back. Then there’s two months of playoffs, never B to B. The ASB is certainly too long with players only required to play 65 games to get awards.

Players embarrassed the league at the ASG playing no d and now all the male refs call the games like the females, back to the 80’s. Refs in every sport have become such a focus, and rightfully so.

The ASG was horrible. I watch none of the Allstar clown show. The entire weekend is a series of circus acts.
 
Nuggets 3-1 on their road trip. And they only lost to the Mavericks due to Kyrie’s heroics

They are looking strong again. Payton Watson has turned into a defensive beast.

Silver’s gotten too full of himself after getting his bag. Nothing says we’re not calling fouls or lane violations like sending out two admin officials to deny it. Today sees officials not being announced and hidden. They’re normally out hours ago on:

nba lineups to rotowire has about half of the refs, including Scott Foster at Boston.

This situation with Jontay Porter could be a big problem for the NBA. Twice this season huge prop bets have cashed on his scoring under and in both of those contests, he took himself out of the game.

Iowa college wrestling lost four starters for the season, including two All-Americans, betting on Iowa sports IN Iowa. One was their HWT from Illinois, where we CAN’T bet on college sports with our teams WITHIN the state.

I could have laid a bet on Illinois men’s 🏀 when I was in IA, KS, CO, and AZ recently, but I didn’t. Some Illinois people do run over to IA or IN for sizable wagers.

SO, was moderate Democratic Senator Bill Bradley New Jersey of Knicks fame CORRECT when he wrote the PAPSA bill this USSC ruled unconstitutional?

I have watched a lot of USC Basketball, and I think Bronny James has a future in the NBA.

Good Body and looks like a tenacious defender.

The Lakers would be lucky/wise to snatch him up in the draft.

Dumbest take ever, and this has nothing to do with this themed thread.

He hasn't declared for the draft and probably won't. He needs another season in college.
 
Despite Ben facing criticism due to his injury issues, Lee said that the Aussie does not deserve the blame. The veteran agent wants to take the brunt of the blame because he is not doing well in finding the best specialists to help his client.

There might be some medical professionals who could help Ben do this without needing surgery. However, Lee wasn’t successful in doing so, but he did commend Simmons for his hard work and dedication behind the scenes, which fans and critics do not see.

Ben Simmons' agent takes accountability regarding his client's injury troubles

Ben Simmons has continued to face issues and his agent has taken accountability for his injury troubles.

Bizarre.

Ben Simmons's agent is taking responsibility for his client not finding the right specialist for his back.

Wow.

$40 million next year for a decent backup center that can pass.
 
In 2-4 years, I see Anthony "Ant" Edwards as a top 5 player in the league.

He will easily pass Durant, Leonard, LeBron, and Curry.

Only 22. There is far more upside than Booker, Mitchell, and Brunson.

He reminds me of Dwayne Wade, only bigger, stronger, and a better shooter.

Will the Lakers tank to get a chance at OKC? Is OKC being disrespected? If PHI wins, it seems to me both PHI and MIL got who they wanted. HOU could take ATL’s place being 5 games better, but they were 0-2 against ATL. The nba will own this weekend.

As it should be. Watching baseball last night was pretty aweful.

Foster doing game one, not GS. Will we get a playoff female ref? Will they keep eating their whistles, leading to more physicality and tempers,

What a difference post-season feels like.

You’ve always enjoyed the ‘pace’ of mlb. 😂
It’s a supersaturated sports scene right now.

The play-in set-up is better than the single wild-card game we used to have in mlb, but I prefer it over the three-game series they went to.
 
@RedAkston you guys got a good chance at knocking off old and slow Milwaukee. Which, I don’t know if they can handle another epic collapse this year lol
