2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

Curry really looked like he was declining the last few games.

The fuck are you talking about? He's having one of his best seasons ever. He just scored 47 and 40.

Sarcasm....for the Cavs Homer.

Too early for that kind of language

Too early for that kind of language

Notre Dame Navy today. I hate this game every year. Nothing at all to be gained for Notre Dame. The only impactful things that can come from a Notre Dame Navy game is bad shit.

 

[thunderc]

Are all 2 win or less teams tanking?

 

[Retroram52]

Perhaps the Lakers are? Attempting to get into the Wembanyama sweepstakes when the Lakers get a Number One pick from a lottery-potential based team in the 2023 draft when the Lakers trade Westbrook and/or AD. LOL!

Another reason to join a conference.

Supposedly prepared for the option during the bye week......WE WILL SEE

Ok, that's it. I gotta see this kid. Everyone is talking like he's gonna be the next big thing...

I napped for like 3 hrs as soon as I got home from work......so tired......knew I had no chance of staying up for GSW/Cavs if I did not.

Hope it will at least be worth watching.....Cavs havent played any D the last 2 games.

Man I hate to say it but they've been so Browns like at end of games.

Not nearly as bad at 8-4, though.....and if told before season we'd be 8-4 after this trip I'd have taken it.

 

[dtgold88]

The Cavs throw another game away bc of late game offense. They play iso ball and don’t move. Garland hasn’t been good but late in games he is awful

Yeah, and has been for a while. Just weird. would not undo this deal at all but whatever one thinks about Sexton he was better than garland in the clutch.

Still very young I guess.

when you say "prepared for option" do you mean weighed options of joining a conference and which one if so?

 

[dtgold88]

But their bench was basically 3 guys and Poole was most of that. Still not much bench but I was surprised the starters actually didn't play that many minutes. When Curry goes supernova it doesn't really matter, that's a W. 18 for Steph in the 4th quarter.

Say what ya will about them but GS is still GS at home.

 

[dtgold88]

That might indeed be where it's headed. They had an idea, maybe it's not doable.

Neither player has really had any college. They need time on the court. The Ws probably don't want to see them turn into studs elsewhere but will they have to sacrifice the season for it? And if they traded them, they'd need to send salary to get someone good back...who do you dump with them?

It is still early maybe they earn some trust over time. The FO has earned some trust though for sure.

Last part is true.....also don't want to sell low. though maybe they thought by playing them they'd end up selling even lower. Not a dig as I cannot say I've seen either play all that much (other than Kuminga last night in spot duty).

would add, though, even if they join a conference they will still have games like the one against Navy, I guess.

No lol. Talking about navy game plan

 

[ChrisperJ10]

Ok, that's it. I gotta see this kid. Everyone is talking like he's gonna be the next big thing...

He’s a 7’3, shot blocking Kevin Durant. FREAK

Speaking of recruits…

Did anyone see Emoni Bates play last night?

His release was never that fucking quick before.

He looks like a thing that has never been seen before

Navy’s flex bone triple option. In terms of conference the Irish should really only be weighing two: The B10 and the SEC. All the others are going to be swallowed up and be less viable. Ironically, the ACC’s massive buyout clause for defectors may save ND’s independence while they see it all shake out. My gut instinct says in the end it will be the B10. The B10 adding USC, one of the key rivalries ND would want to look to keep alive may be the thing that puts the B10 over the top.
