The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

I have no problem with changing the rules, but if the voting is in before the playoffs that’s how it is.

They should definitely change the rules.

They should definitely change the rules.

An mvp award should not be made harder to win. It’s hard enough to get people to play for 82 games. No one should steal an award in the playoffs, the playoffs have their own awards.

Steal?

Im not saying Andre Iguadala is MVP based on a good playoff, but determing a full body of work based on the playoff and regular season is not the worst idea ever.

Anyone want to guess what the 4 remaining teams have in common?

Not what I was thinking. They are all extremely healthy. It takes a lot of luck to win a title as well.

That too man

Luck is definitely a factor. Especially nba playoffs. Its a mini regular season

In the postgame most of the guys were trying to not say much but they ask him if he thought they could win another title with this roster. He said well we didn’t so apparently not.

And then the Nugs get the next 4 number 1 lotto picks

The Suns are a mess. How much more before the league steps in?

Also, fun fact: Josh Bartelstein is the son of agent Mark Bartelstein, who helped get Beal to Phoenix. Nepotism for the win!

I mean they don’t have much to offer

A first and a few swaps plus mpj

It’s basically if Durant wants to force his way there if the other teams are out or make other moves

They don't have much to offer but the price for Durant is likely gonna be low. Suns can't expect much of a return for a player in his mid 30s, has missed multiple stretches of games with injuries the last couple of years, and is seeking a long term deal even if that player can put up all star numbers. A first and some swaps (with salary matching players) is probably the level of deal they'll get. I'm not expecting them to get some young players + multiple 1sts for him

Big difference agreed, but not just in the way you note. Lakers have actually won more recently and just added a generational superstar that they can now use the offseason to better mold their roster around. Nobody knows what Lebron will sign for, it's all speculation at this point. He's said nothing publicly.

It's humorous that you continue to hate on the one player that got your franchise it's only championship.

hes 41 in December and cant do it any longer. He cant play both offense and defense in a playoff game- he can do one or the other- but he just cant do it.

Fat Luka is a top 10 guy when he isnt sucking wind

what is LeBron?

no way is he near top 10 anymore- 2 top 10 players should do much much better.

LeBron can still fill up the box score but he is not a main guy anymore- he just cant do it on both ends.

So typical Wiggy, right...?

Talks shit...

Gets faced...

Runs away...

A jackass can't change it's stripe...

I guess ol' one-nut is back at it again!

They were okay until the Beal deal. That was a bad call.

I feel like that’s colon cancer in basketball trade form

I don’t know who to feel the most sorry for
