    The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

    at Boston is going to be very very tough. If they can get by Boston though- next 4 are New Orleans, Toronto, Atlanta, Atlanta. Fairly do-able.

    they will def. come- its a long season.

    The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

    glad they rested him- but Atkinson has done really well managing his minutes. last year he was pushed a ton- some of it was needed because of injuries- but having a healthy Mitchell at the end is a huge thing. He could not even dunk at the end of the season last year since he had a pretty...

    Cavs had 49 in the first quarter. The offense looks incredible right now. I hope they dont look past Charlotte so we can get the Boston game. Will be tough but fun.

    I thought Bickerstaff was extremely mediocre- but this is a pretty wild start. 12-0 also are the only team to have played 12 games too.

    OKC is the next dynasty

    Good lord you are stupid. Totally missing the point- either purposefully or through sheer mountains of ignorance. My point was- that they should go for it- since in the long run, injuries, contracts, upsets, etc. happen all the time in the NBA. Plenty of teams looked stacked with young...

    11-0 not looking good.

    OKC is the next dynasty

    I guess we will see. Its written down now. I have a strong suspicion we will be revisiting a few years from now and you will have a lot of crow to eat- but we shall see. I wish the Thunder the best of luck- and that they have more success than the squandered Durant/RW/Harden/Ibaka era- where...

    OKC is the next dynasty

    What you are saying his no basis in fact or reason. Please game out how the team being worth 4 billion would help in huge luxury tax payments. Maybe if you think really hard you will get to reason. OKC doesnt have huge revenue streams like some teams and doesnt have a super rich owner like...

    OKC is the next dynasty

    from 2021 to 2023- a 3 years span- the Warriors paid about 160M in luxury tax a year-- the Clippers paid about 120M in luxury tax a year. OKC does not have a shred of a possibility of being able to pay anything even in the stratosphere of that. you never know what can happen with injuries...

    OKC is the next dynasty

    Clay Bennett does not NEARLY have the $ to go into the luxury tax on a year to year basis. Not even freaking close.

    OKC is the next dynasty

    I think the NBA moves very fast- and contracts and issues always come up. Would anyone have guessed Durant/RW/Harden/Ibaka would have had only 1 Finals appearance to show for it? If you can win a title you go for it- if you can get a top 3 player before he is 30 you go for it. You cant pay...

    what were your impressions of this Cavs team with the new coach?

    Cavs look good. young, talented, signed up long term--- this team is gonna be around for years to come. Been fun so far this season.

    The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

    Cavs goal this season- if they stay relatively healthy- should be the #2 seed- they might or might not get it- but that should be the goal for them. I hope they stay healthy--- missing Strus has not hurt them yet since they have depth- but if they lost another key guy or two it could start...

    Lakers have a good starting lineup- but man- i dont think they have 1 guy I would feel good relying on coming off the bench.

    The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

    in the NBA- more so then other sports- it seems like you just have to have a good head on your shoulders or its gonna be tough to stay good long term. It seems like its not as much as problem in MLB because of the minors and the humbling that goes on with it--- but the instant money and stardom...

    not that i expect anyone to go back- but I was a huge Kuminga fan in that draft. It was the 2021 draft where there was a pretty substantial consensus on the top 4- Cade, Green, Mobley, Barnes--- in a normal draft Kuminga def. goes higher than 7. However, it was obvious the guy was super...

    Should be able to beat the Wiz. Those other 3 on the road will be tough. Cavs are bound to drop one sooner or later- almost did tonight. My Cavs look pretty confident and balanced thus far. I like that they put Wade in the lineup for defense when Strus got hurt in the preseason. LeVert off...

    The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

    Celtcs, Cavs and OKC are coming up 3 games in a row- all on the road. Will be a good test. 4 game road trip with Washington. If they get 2-2 I think they will be happy- if they get 3 of those games that would be phenomenal.
