Time moves too quick.

Your not lyin my man

65 games is too low. I’ve moved to 73.

90% of the season

For all awards, including any super max criteria

Btw:
The Knicks won the season series over Cleveland 3-1.

It's almost like the Cavs forget how to play defense when J. Allen doesn't play.

Sucks about Randle though. I hate seeing injuries. Especially this time of year to key players.

A Cavs/Knicks playoff series should be entertaining.

What's weird is how the older you get the quicker the years go by.

I think they lose at least 1 or 2 more (Clips and Suns), and could be more. Right now, I'm just hoping AD and Vando are OK once they cool down and their injuries tighten up.

I think they win both.

Suns probably won’t have anything to play for and the Clippers streak over them has to end at some point.

All it will do is serve to make these awards even more questionable than they already are. The growing belief among medical staffs and training staffs aren’t going to change on load management because of this. The regular season is too long because the owners are greedy and will bleed every dime they can out of the product. Shit, they’re also talking about adding more games with this mid season NCAA tournament one and done style format. If you turn these NBA awards into perfect attendance awards all it will do is serve to further diminish nonsense that’s already picked by media types who are lazy and watch box scores and not basketball games. We have gone and made beta cucks with no talent gate keepers of these major awards.

The way the Cavs are constructed they are dependent upon his elite rim protection in the way they play defense. He is an eraser who can serve to mitigate the defensive issues players like Garland and Mitchell have as individual defenders. It’s not surprising to me at all that their team defense takes a hit. Rim protection is so important to overall team defense. That’s especially true when a staff has a piece like Allen afforded to them in the way they construct, install, and teach their team defense.

Good lort.

I’m pretty sure that you’re a front running casual. If you weren’t you would know the full context. A hot topic in the NBA has been the growth of load management over the last few years pertaining to a good many players, especially stars who sell seats. It started with Pop and the Spurs and it has grown over time. Adam Silver has a press conference at the All Star weekend every year and this year the big story coming out of that revolves around load management. That’s what this is about. It’s not a response to Joel Embiid. If you were a real NBA fan and not a casual who is front running a Nuggets franchise with no rings who just recently became relevant you’d know these things.

He rarely shows up in here...

That's a spot-on breakdown of the Cavs.

The NBA probably has the best relationship in sports between union and officials. They've come a long way since the last lockout.

Signing up for more games while ignoring players who are signaling the season is too long already. If they say load management is a growing problem seems counter productive to add more games.

The players have nothing not to like honestly, it’s their league

Eh...yea. no doubt but you have baseball where the haves refuse to give an inch to the have nots among players.

Lebron is worth more than what he's paid and his deal is no more than 5 years. MLB has these retarded mega deals

As an example.

So the players have given in some cases in the nba.

It is literally 1 extra game if you happen to make it to the finals

The time table pretty much coincides with the decision to move Maxey back into the starting lineup for Milton. Being a legit third option that can shoot and blow by a defender relieves pressure on Tobias Harris to try and be a two way guy. Tobias has come up small in pressure. Yet he was great in last year’s playoffs.
