2023/24 NBA REGULAR SEASON THREAD "THANKING FOR WEMBANYAMA"

jokic is a #1 guy, ad is a #2 guy, classic math problem

God, Jokic tipping that ball to himself among three guys just balletic.

gordon doing masterful scrap work out there

kevin harlan just announced "the latest commercial from nike" guess thats life in 2023 for you

a funny early season quirk is tv guys hyping up guys like jaxon hayes

christian braun blocking bron a true changing of the guard moment

then he elbowed him in the face

I’m having a great time!

nice good stuff

love when joker does very euro incredulous gestures when he picks up a foul

ok I'm. getting the Reaves is annoying stuff

joker missed a couple bunnies and the lakers ran out on them, big swing

a funny early season quirk is tv guys hyping up guys like jaxon hayes

its silly are people really supposed to get stoked over a new backup center and once they do get stoked what happens then jaxon hayes will only let them down

gotta say for a decent team the lakers dont really have many entertaining guys besides bron theres really no one im like ah thats an amusing player to watch, and even bron its more of a connoisseur experience now that his athleticism has waned

ad has his moments but hes just kind of a weird guy idk

where the nugs have all sorts of guys i like

this has been true back to that lakers championship, when they're good it's because they've built these slow bruising teams that manage to compliment lebron and ad who as you say don't really have beautiful games at this point

feel a little sorry for the blazer fans I know (all of them) talking themselves into “we’re gonna surprise everybody! too much talent on this squad! probably a top 6 team now!” type shit — gonna be a long season that ends in 25 wins

hell, no! you're too pessimistic the blazers gonna surprise everybody and --- win 29**

**or maybe not

why is gordon dribbling so much i thought he finally figured out he shouldnt do that

why has porter jr been way, way off on a lot of his threes?

everyone prob too hyped up from getting their rings

championship hangover (legal weed edition)

reggie miller in the first game of the season why

murray and kcp combined for 16/25 from the field and pretty much got whatever they wanted in the midrange

if you were the lakers you'd probably like to clean that up

i love how the lakers fans stewed all summer vowing revenge on the nugs and they got handled on the first game of the season

the russell reaves backcourt is not prob not going to be stopping too many people

might have to give vincent more minutes

gabriel vince will be the lakers' starting pg at some point this season

russell should just embrace his destiny as a bench gunner

these rings are insane man, this one has a slide-out as well as a rotating background

lol thats so dumb rings shouldnt have moving pieces

i bet u could carry snacks in that thing, immediately elevates this gaudy sack of dogshit if so

they should just give them matching watches if they want something with cool lil moving pieces

watches would present so many more design opportunities

back in nba ancient times it wasnt always rings recall someone saying one year they gave them engraved commemorative trays lol

are you guys watching shaq yell i love you in serbian at jokic lmao

hah i don't really follow tennis much but i think in some of the big tournaments the winner gets a cool trophy and the 2nd place person gets....a tray. and it seems a little bit mean because what are you going to do with a tray?

yeah was thinking of the tennis tray too it sucks so bad

chris paul on the warriors huh idk doesnt seem normal

booker seems locked in he could have a real big year if he gets enough shots

xp yes i'm struggling to accept this

kind of a fucked up situation if you ask me

serving my friends soup on my second place tray: first, shut the fuck up

lmao

guys I just love the denver nuggets so much, it’s a cliche but this team really is a band of brothers, they all love each other…jokic was crying when the banner got raised (as was I). just super special to be a fan of this team now

halcyon days my friend

he’s just fucking with us now, right?

Tonight we learned the World Champion Denver Nuggets are going to be very tough to beat in the NBA Playoffs.
