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

Steph 6/6 from 3 in the first 9 minutes of the game.

I can't wait until the C's develop Springer and he ends up hitting like 3 4th quarter 3s against the Sixers down the line

Steph's feeling good knowing he wasn't traded

kobe long arm

cant believe they put his dumb ass self given nickname on there

and his dumb middle name

"yeah i did the rape. that was me"

apparently kobe chose the pose from this, walking off the court after he scored 81. which lol, "the time i had to blaze a shitty raptors team"

lol the statue has the finger tape

lol they just showed Robin Lopez intently reading a book at the game

Robin Lopez was traded today. Time to get ready for the next gig. pic.twitter.com/LcvfsYj3BI

lol why did he go to the game

pacers have already traded the morris, all is right

lol

Wolves up by 24 though lately there's no lead I trust

NAZ REID

seems like that coaching change made the bucks worse, weird lol

the bucks roster w/o lillard is not that far away from like a G league team

hold on i forgot about middleton but it’s still really grizzly

tonight they are rolling out

crowder — scrap heap guy
connaughton — a scrap heap guy for all intents & purposes
beasley — scrap heap guy
portis — ok fine
AJ green — undrafted fringe rotation guy
andre jackson — rookie

+ giannis and brook

w/ thanasis who is worse at basketball than me and beauchamp who is looking like a non entity as the DNPs

Green is shooting great tonight

the full jokic experience in 3 mins lol. two bizarre layups that missed rim, two highlight reel backdoor passes, the worst pass I’ve ever seen, and an offensive rebound+putback

DiVincenzo had how many points ???

this whole first 6 minutes has been pure yakety sax from both teams my lord

Bucks managed to keep it tight down the stretch, losing by only 24 points lead by AJ Green's 27 points

Warriors starting to look competent on defense is a nice plot twist

At the suns jazz game w my youngest. Kd still good can confirm.

nice!

oh shit blazers pistons tonight the 1990 finals rematch featuring all the best nba players of today

nuggets score 59 in the first half with no free throw attempts

Pure hoops

oh man jokic just stuffed the shit outta AD

it doesn't feel like the Lakers are really honoring Mamba tonight

lmao Jokic is insane, looks around for someone to pass to at the top of the key, gets visibly frustrated that no one's there, shrugs his shoulders and just whips it in over his head for 3

jokic is having a very classic pre-MVP chaotic performance tonight

as I was saying lol

hahahaha oh my god that buzzer beater jokic just tried

Not sure I've ever seen an end-of-quarter shot like this lol pic.twitter.com/Jj8lru4wrv

just wanna point out that I love LeBron, idk maybe it's because it's Kobe night but something really makes me appreciate the fact that he's still in the league. he's 2 years older than me and the fact that he can still hang with so many super talented young players and put up those kinds of numbers is really cool. I know he's a big cornball and fairly dramatic but I think that's what makes him fun, because if he loses it's always funny, when he wins you gotta tip your cap. I mean that Cleveland title vs. the 73 win Warriors was the most legacy defining shit ever. also it's well known that everyone who makes it to Lebron's insane level of fame and wealth become total assholes but he actually seems like a fairly decent dude all around? like it's him and Garth Brooks and idk who else. anyway, go Nuggs

hahahaha oh my god that buzzer beater jokic just tried

i have always wondered if an NBA player could actually pull that off, guess now I know

Lebron is hitting the big 40,000 in the next few weeks right?

that was such a perfect cut to Adam Sandler

Dumb gamble by Reaves

great win, evil is defeated and ethical hoops prevails

just thinking about how the blazers and pistons have a combined 22-78 record and are battling it out in OT

“The white flag is being waved.”

“Why do you say that, Jim Pete?”

“Because Thanasis is getting ready to come into the game.” 👀😅pic.twitter.com/mAGSHM13Cl

listening to zach lowe and bobby marks absolute incredulity over the bulls doing nothing lol

great bontempts bulls incredulity on the hoop collective pod as well

yeah pretty hard to justify. weve already seen what they are when theyre playing at their best and its nothing more than a play-in /first round exit.

bulls fans fed up & it's hard to fault them!

I know we like to kid around and assume the worst, but I am legitimately shocked that another trade deadline and post-mortem went THIS poorly.

every concern troll over AK's delusion and incompetence for an entire year turned out to be legitimate

What we just saw was insulting

Arturas Karnisovas: lazy, unambitious, and kind of a dunce. He has never said or done anything with the Bulls to prove otherwise.

It seemed impossible that the Reinsdorfs could hire an executive tandem worse than GarPax. And yet!
