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

jaylen has blocked the hell out of jabari smith jr twice

one for each legendary rapper present

The Jazz are 21-20 and sexton might be good

The Pistons and Wizards are finalizing a deal to trade Marvin Bagley, Isaiah Livers, and two second-round picks for forwards Danilo Gallinari and Mike Muscala, sources tell ESPN.

lol what is the point of this trade

Free James Wiseman!

hawks lost by 28 points to the wizards last night

dejounte traded when

yeah seems like theyre gonna move him its just not a good fit him and trae are both best with the ball in their hands and doujonte is better on defense playing point too since he has good size there

crazy thought what if the hawks traded trae instead 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

dont think theyre ready to do it, would be interesting tho

I was looking at homer Warriors trades and noticed that Klay for Towns works straight up. Sort of an interesting one imo.

I would cry

that’s a great idea for the warriors if their long term goal is to have draymond’s contract voided after he commits one final act of unspeakable violence

Towns isn't a euro tho ;)

i think there are some teams that would look at trae w/ 2 years left on his deal as a gamble that wouldn't necessarily have to cripple the franchise. but i don't think atlanta would be getting back what it thinks it should get back

bucks just fumbled the game to the kings then the kings fumbled it right back in ot to a dame 3pt buzzer beater

monk missed 2 fts to ice the game

joel playing the rockets right now wonder if hell play jokic tomorrow.....lol

oh whoops yeah theyre on a back to back and so are the thunder though thunder will probably all play

joel usually finds a way to not play jokic even without a back to back

joel has long serbian flu

rockets getting destroyed for the second game in a row, tbf its vs good teams

after all the hoopla at the beginning of the year, houston looks p mid which is about what everyone thought they'd be with the moves they've made

yup

Competitive but not much of a ceiling unless Jalen green or Jabari or both makes ‘the leap’

regular take: jalen green kinda sucks
hot take: jabari smith is fine

jabari putting up good numbers this year, doesnt seem like hes gonna be a star tho

i thought they'd be like a 30-35 win team so they're doing good still

they prob are essentially a 35 win team but they banked some games with the hot start

spurs coming out and disrespecting dr kings legacy w this first quarter smdh

if i didnt know any better id assume trae young was auditioning for the spurs

pistons won (wizards)

drays back

but the warriors lose to the hospital grizzlies anyway

someone named "gg jackson" scored 23 off the bench for the grizz

q for the panel, who will be making bigger panic trade(s) this szn: gs, phx, lal, or atl?

when i watched the rockets last week i thought jalen green looked like he made a lot more sense playing off the ball, because he does have good size for a 2 guard. the issue is that he doesn’t really do anything well with the ball it’s not that different from an RJ barrett or de’andre hunter situation

xp tough call lakers are the most panic tradey team and situation but they dont have the assets to do that much and supposedly are refusing to trade reaves which is funny since they should be trying to trade him before the shine is totally off regardless, i guess if they trade for lavine that qualifies as panicking but its prob the best option available to them they cant just punt on lebrons final days, seems like the dubs have to make a move they could conceivably make a good trade like kuminga a first and cp3 for siakam their lux tax situation does complicate things tho, suns dont have anything to trade but you know they would if they could, atl is going to get back well less than they traded for murray but maybe they can pretend like they didnt by getting back a mediocre young player

reaves and a 1st for murray would be funny since trae and murray is just not a fit but it might be the best they can get

if i didnt know any better id assume trae young was auditioning for the spurs

KOC (I know, I know) had a column today in which he proposed trae as a spurs target. I can see the argument but personally I would not want to be getting into the trae young business
