wonder why espn stats thinks the dubs are going to fall off, just age maybe, i mean they were +5.5 last year with a bunch of injuries, think they mightve even won the chip too

projections are always tighter around .500 than seems possible but yeah doesnt seem like it has any confidence in any teams this year

theyve got a lot of good role players and absolutely no shot creators or playmakers

bison just close your eyes and picture the headlines one year from now about how excited tim duncan is to mentor victor wembanyama and have him carry on the spurs tradition

It’s just an exhibition game… But the Adelaide 36ers just beat the Phoenix Suns 134-124. Perimeter defense will likely be a thing of emphasis for the Suns as Adelaide made 24 of 43 3-pointers. The 36ers play in The National Basketball League based in Australia and New Zealand.— Marc J. Spears (@MarcJSpears) October 3, 2022

they should be in the nba now and the suns should be in the Australian league

It appears the Adelaide 36ers are the first non-NBA team to win a preseason game (134-124 at the Phoenix Suns) in the U.S. since Fenerbahce beat Brooklyn in October 2015: https://t.co/GY8GDYGj1B— Kevin Pelton (@kpelton) October 3, 2022
Adelaide is also apparently the first team based outside of Europe to win a preseason game against an NBA team in the period tracked by @nbastats (back to the 2005-06 preseason).— Kevin Pelton (@kpelton) October 3, 2022

if i was a betting person id be smashing the under on suns wins. has a team with this poor of vibes heading into a season been able to beat their odds?
― Spottie, Monday, 3 October 2022 05:57 (one year ago) link
also assuming crowder is indeed done there they have prob the biggest chasm between the starting 5 and bench of any team in the league. their sixth best player is… shamet? saric? i just don’t like their roster. james jones is not good at his job

wow i have not heard about this potential trade before this is compelling info
The Lakers 'seriously considered' sending Russell Westbrook and their two unprotected first-round picks (2027 and 2029) to the Pacers for Myles Turner and Buddy Hield, per @ShamsCharania, @jovanbuha and @sam_amick Rob Pelinka chose to "remain patient" to see how L.A. jells pic.twitter.com/fa5KFg4X6m— Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) October 3, 2022

they either need to make the trade or come up with new trade ideas
― lag∞n, Monday, 3 October 2022 17:06 (one year ago) link
somebody should trade for those two players. just not sure it should be the lakers. and def not for two unprotected picks

the fact that the mavs went into the offseason with the singular goal of only acquiring centers and apparently did not ever attempt to get myles turner remains extremely confusing to me

the mavs really need hardaway to be good coming off an acl tear.

even putting the brunson stuff aside their offseason was bizarre
― J0rdan S., Monday, 3 October 2022 17:39 (one year ago) link
i feel like i watched a different playoffs than their front office idk. their whole second half push was a combo of having small mobile centers who could make their defense fully switchable and two guards to go along w/ luka who could shoot and get their own shot. so their offseason plan was to sign two traditional centers and not replace brunson. got it
― J0rdan S., Monday, 3 October 2022 17:42 (one year ago) link
i am pretty skeptical that their ex-nike guy front office has any idea what they're doing
― call all destroyer, Monday, 3 October 2022 18:28 (one year ago) link
yeah. i wonder. the zinger trade turned out to be a complete heist but was also probably just been blind luck

what happened to kat?
Karl-Anthony Towns didn't go into deep detail about what he's been through, but said he only started walking again after his non-covid illness on Saturday. He's down to 231 pounds. But says he feels good to be back out on the court and is ramping back up.— Jon Krawczynski (@JonKrawczynski) October 3, 2022

wtf. he is cursed.
― call all destroyer, Monday, 3 October 2022 19:23 (one year ago) link
well at least they traded for a guy who plays his position
― J0rdan S., Monday, 3 October 2022 19:28 (one year ago) link
If the illness was "on Saturday" it sounds like food poisoning and puking his guts out.

Karl-Anthony Towns didn't go into details about his illness, but said he was in the hospital. Cleared to just walk again Saturday. When asked if he was worried about missing camp, the season, he said: "There was more drastic things to worry about than basketball at that moment."— Chris Hine (@ChristopherHine) October 3, 2022
Cleared to walk doesn't sound good
