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

this is a horrific new technology

cant believe players have to go their whole lives with annoying guys yelling at them

wemby bout to foul out

friends, i hate it!

its ok sometimes you are a very tall french man who fouls out of his first nba game

just the way it goes

it's just his real nba first game, bise. it'll all smooth out. presumably the refs and the opposing players haven't ever seen anything quite like this kid and he's got plenty of adjusting to do, too.

hmm maybe, or maybe someone should search tony brothers' pockets for a big fat check from one mark cuban!!!

he would probably pay him in worthless crypto currency

here's an idea keep lobbing it to Wemby

worth a shot

oh damn Wemby is becoming him before our very eyes

wemby woulda had 40 if the refs just let them play

mavs aren’t great huh

Lively seems cool.

spurs youth showing HORD

yeah the crunch time execution is a work in progress. they’ve got cool dudes tho

very fun game

luka is really good at basketball

it would be cooler if he was less good

not gonna get too hyped on lively yet, zach collins isn’t exactly a physical force. but he looked way more playable than i anticipated even vs this spurs team. if the mavs have a legit 5 they can play with luka, kyrie and two 3&D types they can be competitive

vassell was impressive looking, physically he just looks filled out and the jumper was silky

collins just got an extension and im happy for him but i was reminded tonight why i dont think he's a long term solution at the 5. if he hits a couple of those pick n pop 3s his production offensively looks a lot nicer, but hes not a tremendous paint protector, and hes a so-so rebounder

I’m surprised by how much I dislike Luka lately, it’s not just the constant whining and complaining it’s that shit eating grin he always has when he makes a play in a big moment on the road. Feels like he’s sliding too comfortably into the villain role. Which sucks cuz yeah he’s amazing

i flipped on luka last year or maybe the year before, otm, he has annoying frat dude vibes and i hate it

4 points on 4 shots for ayton tonight… he’s gonna fire up 2k for a few hours and then sleep like a baby

Wow speaking of hateable

Sleep procrastinAyton.

dying at the bulls having a players only meeting after one game

bulls are setting records

Suns stars Devin Booker (foot) and Bradley Beal (back) will both miss tonight’s game vs. Lakers, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.

hah i think i just put it together that the wizard's two main guys are kuzma and poole, may not be the most rocksteady combo

All vibes no pressure.

lol good lord.

NBA doesn’t want:

- 2 stars resting at same time
- stars resting on road
- stars resting on National TV

Suns doing all three, during just second game of year… after Booker was healthy enough to dominate GS in game one. https://t.co/EgmjQ4uRxx

adam silver is never serious about anything but i think they're gonna try and fight the teams on this bcuz they're starting to fuck up the money

i just want to know the process of how they're going to prove this stuff. seems like a violation of hipaa but idk what kind of agreements are in place

saw something where they have third party doctors that will verify injuries at the leagues request

bison started this a couple weeks ago but never shared with the main thread -1 2nd round draft pick for you

danny green getting sixth man minutes for the sixers what on earth

i really had no idea the sixers bench is largely comprised of danny green, kelly oubre, and pat bev. i’m cracking up

hey those are good players, to poop on

sixers getting hammered with embiid off the floor and either dame or giannis out there

i really had no idea the sixers bench is largely comprised of danny green, kelly oubre, and pat bev. i’m cracking up

but think of the cap space they'll have next summer

setting really high screens for dame is good offense

marjon beauchamp just scored on embiid 1 on 1 at the rim in transition…….

svg now repeating morey's fav talking points. "daryl morey. DOES NOT CARE. where james harden wants to go."

this 76ers squad is kinda depressing.

def do not like kenny yelling at me to download america's number one sports betting app fanduel chuck who you got tonight on fanduel chuck the bucks or philly america's best app chuck

idk if this sixers team could stay above .500 for any long stretch where embiid was hurt and not playing
