2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

Lakers 25-118 from 3 in the first 3 games.

The bigger issue i have is why a team with no shooters attempting nearly 40 attempts per game?

That's my complaint. I get that they have to take some 3's. But they don't need to be taking 40 per game.

A couple of them can hit 3's, so they'll likely improve some. But this current roster is never going to shoot it well enough to justify 40 per game.

They won't trade him unless he asks.

But, most people had them as a play in team, as currently constructed.

You know who they could use?

Lauri and Clarkson.

Get rid of Westbrook and Nunn, even if you have to eat Gay or Conley.

Even Gay and Conley are upgrades

 

[msgkings322]

He found all that just by moving to Cleveland?

I think it's more like his evaluation changed once he moved to Cleveland LOL

prob. with that is they wreck their cap space ----- they seem desperate to keep it open.

however- its not like they can get a deal done AND keep their picks AND keep their cap space open. Its not gonna happen.

Not sure why he signed the extension in the 1st place. I know Russ is gone next season but the FO is lousy

Because its not just about basketball.

His Sons sporting endeavors and his business ventures play a huge part in the Lakers appeal.

Also, he had to believe Rob would do what was needed to keep the team at least respectable.

He has not....lol

No, I only watched him in the playoffs. I never rarely watched Utah regular season games. Helps watching him every game

Yeah I’m sure he will take the steps to the roster “right” next season but that doesn’t mean it will be good lol

You are seeing the motivated version, like his rookie year when he looked special. He’s good but you will let us know when the honeymoon is over.

@Shanemansj13 @dtgold88 @WiggyRuss

Y'all petty.

But, Lmfao @ wasting Lebron's 50th Season...lol

Not sure if @WiggyRuss or @Shanemansj13 listen to these broadcasts but man I hope they eventually replace AC with Daugherty. Nothing against AC but he's getting up there and BD is great as a guest.

That Logo 3 from LeBron was just stubborn pride.

Horrible, unnecessary shot.

But, you live with it because it's rare.

Westbrook, Brown should never shoot a 3....ever.

Davis probably needs to keep it rare as well.

Still, you should have won this game.

Your defense was phenomenal.

Yeah, I always listen to the away announcers for your games.

unfortunately I think AC has the job as long as he wants it... "Mr. Cavalier" and all- but he is starting to lose it a little bit

 

[dtgold88]

SGA out tonight

and that is how ya do it.

McClod was great until he sadly passed away way to young.

right...LeBron's priority is not championships at this point.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

For fucks sake....

Utah is up on the Fly, Pelicans fly 63-53 at the half.

Maybe they aren't tanking wrong.

They are building up their current players to sell high ass fuck?

you pumped for House of the D?

you have your bare feet up on your chaise lounge?

Same unless i don't have a choice

ifyou combined the Lakers and Jazz- the Lakers 2 stars- and all the very solid Jazz role players- youd have a helluva team!

Did they ever find out his cause of death?
