The 2023-2024 NBA Season

[DJ]

I like OKC over the Suns.

 

[thunderc]

2 weeks.

Enjoy.

I’m going to enjoy the next 5 years regardless of what happens, as long as I’m vertical. That’s the only guarantee I got, but I’ll take it.

I like OKC over the Suns.

Not me.

KD can still be KD for a series.

Book showed us he can still get up.

The defense could be a problem though.

If I’m betting money, and I will be, I would take the Lakers and Suns over OKC in a first round matchup.

That’s it.

OKC beats any other potential opponent.

They won’t get Dallas, or Denver until later.

Eh

Pretty sure that post was made when it looked like they might get Minny or the Clippers.

Depending on New Orleans and Dallas end of the year, they can get Dallas in round 1

Yes it was from last night lol when they were ripping up the Pels in quarter 1

Sure, sure….

You should.

 

[tlance]

Seriously, how many teams do you see as true contenders?

In the West, short of a major injury, it’s gonna be Denver.

Do other teams have a punchers chance?

Maybe.

Out East, it’s the Celtics and…….?

Is anyone here taking the Bucks?

I am all the way off that reservation.

Honestly, even though they haven’t even qualified for the playoffs, I’d pick the Heat as my #2 team.

Indy, Magic, Knicks…

Nah.

Clippers, Sacto, Nola….hell no.

Dallas and the Cavs are my dark horses.

It is more wide open this year than ever before.

My point being anyone in line for HCA throughout the playoffs shouldn’t be concerned with their 1st round matchup or how many days they have to prep for that opponent.

Their opponent is in an even tougher spot in terms of prep because they are getting ready for a single elimination game just to advance while the 1 seed scouting staff can at least start watching film for both potential opponents.

You think Dallas will fall out of the top 5?

Can’t see it.

NOLA has some tough games against teams that are on their ass.

Only team I would think can catch Dallas is Phoenix.

I hope you are right on Dallas or Denver

Have to look at the schedules and depends on how soon the Pels get Ingram back

Dude.

You said he was coach of the year 2 weeks ago.

Are you bipolar?

 

[bksballer89]

Rozier makes no Herro such a small factor outside of the consistent 3 pt shooting we get from Tyler

A 20 pt first half against the tough knicks defense

Bucks down 12 to Wizards but @Duffman made fun of the heat losing to the wiz

Under normal circumstances, I would agree.

The play in has changed that some what.

You can have a team finish 8th because of injury and get their main guys back before the real games begin.

Both 8 seeds made it to the conference finals just last year.

I personally had the Bucks as contenders until playoff HIMMY Butler happened……AGAIN.
