2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

One game under .500 my guy. Slow your roll.

8-3 since the trade deadline. And 4-2 since Bron got hurt. When several people on here said our season was in trouble.

Cam Reddish decided he didn’t want any of this shit haha. I’m not posting this for the Jokic dig, just for the clip.

Oh, Embiid is the better overall player.....he just doesn't have the gaudy stats Jokic posts.

I usually hate the cherry picked date for the stat but this one actually has context because it starts when Harden came back from being injured. I said all year that there’s nothing this team could do in the regular season to impress me. And here I am getting setting up for my 2nd round kick in the balls again because they’re making me a believer.

And in a weak West if he makes a deal earlier in the season they’re likely a 2 or 3 seed with home court in the first round.

Giving up both picks? Nah, he made a great deal and we kept one. The one we have up? Could turn into two 2nd rounders.

Ah, I miss the days when the East was the weaker conference...

 

[DJ Fieri]

Embiid needs 3 more games of 35 points to pass Moses Malone (25) for 1st place. Most 35 point games in a season.

Shaq is 3rd with 23.

Why? Your team has been dog shit all year. Now that they’ve pulled their head out of their ass and gotten themselves to one game under .500 they have a chance in a wide open conference because it’s ass. So many holes in that conference. You are highly likely to see a 4 seed or better advance to the Finals. Nuggets aren’t built for the playoffs. Kings can’t defend but likely take a step back with their offense once playoff defense gets played. Memphis is all about everything but basketball. Lakers are built for the playoffs with a healthy LeBron and with the Suns may actually be the top of the heap for the West come playoff time. You should lean into the West being dog shit. It’s why the Lakers have new life. If the West wasn’t dog shit, this would all be too little too late.

They won't win a title this season, so why should I be all bubbly for that...?

 

[tlance]

If I did stupid shit because I saw it on TV with my father would have ripped me off the field or court before the game was over. Kids learn the right way to act from parents and coaches.

And it shouldn’t be expected to be reinforced by players at the highest level?

BS.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The playoffs are going to be very interesting in both the WC and EC.

They could absolutely get to the Finals.

It’s not their job.

So you have gone from we are under .500 to us making the Finals now?

 

[DJ Fieri]

@fightinfunbags is all over the place this AM.

 

[Black Adam]

Maybe. Winning is another matter...

Just sayin'...

Nah, that shit tastes nasty, and I didn't get my wings...
