The 2023-2024 NBA Season

[The Q]

Bro, the Rox got him with the Clippers pick that we dealt for a month of Eric Gordon.

To this day I never got that deal

Especially since you didn’t wanna trade a first for Conley

Curious what you’d look like with Conley batum and cov

Maybe you make one other trade…idk

 

[bksballer89]

Yeah I just don’t know what you do with him the way they’ve ruined basketball

The good ole days he goes very high

But now he’s a career backup

Philly taking him with their early 2 to backup embiid could be a fun spot

Saw a mock with him going to the spurs early 2nd

Pop did get the most out of Boban

Edey just has a limited role as a drop center

Maybe some post ups against the smaller centers

I'm starting to dig Suggs.

Kid plays some good D.

I think Suggs is a high level 3rd guard for a top team.

Think he would be a great energy bench guy/ sometimes starter against teams that like to go small.

Saturday afternoon fun at MSG with the 2 NYC rivals squaring off.
It was a seesaw battle thru 3 qtrs before he Knicks took control in the 4th to put it away.

Jokic and Murray both out tonight vs Portland. Given who is out for Portland it makes sense to rest them going into the final stretch of the season.

Perhaps consider sitting them vs the Clippers as well?

Pretty please?

Pretty cool story re: Julius Randle and what he learned from Kobe.

I wish I made that same choice.

Both teams shot under 40% for most of the game. The late run that won the game for them got the Lakers to 43%, the Sixers shot 35%. The Lakers also missed 8 free throws and turned the ball over 20 times.

The Lakers spent most of the game being gracious hosts by giving the game to the Sixers, but the Sixers didn't want to be rude guests and gave it right back. lol

Normally I would watch em even in this present state but I’m not staying up late after a long work week to get angry haha.

 

[The Q]

The Knicks traded a lottery pick to move salary rather than just send the wizards back their pick to make it all happen

Just bafflingly bad franchising

So disallow incentives for making the all star team. That should be the start.

Funny coincidence you brought that up. I've been thinking he's the new Boban for a few weeks now. He's not as humorous though so no State Farm for Edey

I've never liked this idea because what if there aren't enough worthy all stars to fill out an International team or a USA team? Are you gonna throw some 15 and 4 guy on the team just because he fits the country criteria? I'd be fine with it if they named the all stars similar to how the do All-NBA, but then play USA vs The World separately from All Stars. Basically the All Star is name/award only, no actual game. USA vs The World would be an exhibition event like all the Saturday events. They invite stars to play and put together teams.

NEW YORK KNICKS. Finding ways to beat all kinds a teams …

PS just around the corner, y’all teams better get it together

If the Knicks are healthy they can take a wrecking ball to the playoffs

Don’t think they get past a healthy celts but it should be fun

Let’s not forget Randle. If he can get past the refs , we be good.

Hard to see that being a problem, as it is there are too few all star slots for all the deserving players. A quick look shows something like:

Giannis, Luka, Jokic, SGA, Embiid, Wemby, Gobert, Markannen, Siakam, Porzingis, Wagner, Sabonis

vs

Tatum, LeBron, Curry, AD, KD, Kyrie, Ja, Brunson, Kawhi, Butler, Edwards, Zion

International team seems better, but maybe too big, not enough guards. But as you can see no problem filling the rosters and there's more I left off (Halliburton, Ingram, KAT, Bam etc for US, Anunoby, Wiggins, etc for international)
