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

it’s been a while since I took physics but that sounds a little more like inertia

hey the pistons also got noted non-scorer ryan arcidiacono

hell fit right in

problem with murray is hes best with the ball in his hands but hes still not amazing

momentum is building to nothing happening is hilarious

remember when atl traded three firsts and a swap for him and everyone on this board was like oh thats very bad except heez who was like hey cmon this could be good lol

knicks roster is extremely solid, but once again their main path to postseason success hinges on julius randle

damn heez catching a stray. he’s been through enough!!

its just reminiscence

yeah was thinking the same, hes also not a guy who you can reduce his usage so he just gets easy buckets all of his buckets are the hard kind

Miles Bridges has decided he won’t approve any trades and he will remain with the Charlotte Hornets the rest of the season, agent Rich Paul tells ESPN.

Bridges will be an unrestricted free agent this summer and the Hornets will retain his Bird Rights.

seems like a ticking time bomb situation. really not looking forward to this story next offseason

yeah

looking at twitter knicks fans are gassing themselves up too much right now they should take it slow enjoy the ride instead of penciling themselves in for a seven game ecf, if you dont get that youre what disappointed yelling at hood spiderman

theres a lot of tough teams in the east its gonna be a battle!

knicks line up looking pretty great on paper gotta say. also have to like that the OG + bojan combo lays the foundation for line ups that feature those two + a center and no randle

can we go back to the raptors trading a first round pick for ogbaji and kelly o? what exactly is going on over there? why do they not want to make any first round picks

It's going to be a late first round, and they already have a few picks in what is thought to be a weak draft. Masai seems constitutionally incapable of committing to the tank

Pick (worst of OKC/LAC/HOU/UTA) will be a late 1st-rounder (currently 29th).

Raptors have liked Agbaji for a while. Lottery pick in 2022 who has shown flashes in his first 2 seasons.

Assuming he's not rerouted, Olynyk (expiring contract) will be the 9th Canadian to play for TOR https://t.co/Gf7yGoUfgr

and now they're trading Schroder to the Nets for Diniwiddie...

Diniwiddie

sure why not trade two unsatisfying point guards for each other

what why are they trading micic they waited so long to get him

Thunder are sending guard Vasilije Micic, Davis Bertans, Mann and draft compensation to Hornets as part of the Gordon Hayward deal, sources said. https://t.co/QGkqfyLeX6

how has poku not been traded yet?

prob just gonna let him expire, rip

Charlotte is trading PJ Washington to Dallas for package around Grant Williams, Seth Curry and a first-round pick, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. pic.twitter.com/ROf64V5XgK

— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) February 8, 2024

damn grant wore out his welcome quickly

is nico harrison going to show up to the press conference in a "fuck them picks" shirt?

lol the grant williams dallas storyline

uhhhh

BREAKING: The Sixers are trading Pat Bev to the Bucks, per @PatBevPod pic.twitter.com/g8pISR27dm

— NBACentral (@TheDunkCentral) February 8, 2024

Weird. Pat Bev has been decent for the Sixers and has been playing a lot with all of the injuries.

pat bev is one of those guys who always hits a ceiling in the playoffs, if i was the sixers i’d wanna goad one of my main rivals into playing him too

is their plan that pat bev is gonna be their perimeter stopper? dame & pat bev backcourt lol? let’s be serious

Worked with Doc.
xp

if i count correctly, this is Pat Bev's 7th NBA team

Sixers look like they are close to one of the salary thresholds so maybe trading House and Bev brought them under some tax.

yeah it did i think

lol pat bev breaking the news of his own trade

is their plan that pat bev is gonna be their perimeter stopper? dame & pat bev backcourt lol? let’s be serious

if this is the extent of their defensive upgrades, oh boy

The probable path for Los Angeles Lakers is standing pat at trade deadline with potential to acquire another star player in the offseason when armed with three first-round picks, league sources tell @NBAonTNT, @BleacherReport.

— Chris Haynes (@ChrisBHaynes) February 8, 2024

good plan lol bron’s socials are gonna be a gold mine

lakers: we will simply do something later its cool

The Detroit Pistons are releasing 2020 No. 7 pick Killian Hayes, sources tell me and @JLEdwardsIII.

— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) February 8, 2024

sorry, releasing??

when he was getting a ton of burn earlier in the season was that their attempt to showcase him lol

I get to tie a bow around this by noting that Detroit gave over 1k minutes to a guy who took playing time away from 3 of their top prospects and made life immeasurably (actually quite measurably) harder for their most important one. And that's just this year.

— Anchorage Man (@SethPartnow) February 8, 2024

truly

they needed to physically remove killian from monty's vicinity and they couldn't find a trade partner, so they were forced to cut him

i would love to know all the bojan and alec burks trades they turned down in order to wind up with quentin grimes and two seconds

knicks said they'd take killian in the deal then said "psych!"

Last month, Philadelphia awarded Marcus Morris the key to the city

damn they gotta change the locks now

they couldve easily got a first for bojan last year or like at any point when they started the youth movement

40 more minutes for trades cmon nba... do something

this has been a trade deadline more focused on guys teams wanna get rid of than guys they wanna get. excise those cancers folks, clock's tickin
