2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

[DJ Fieri]

@DJ

You my guy.

But, don’t bring your ass in here to complain about the officiating.

This is the exact type of bullshit that others have been complaining about.

The non call on Brown’s last shot was some unsavory shit.

It was a obvious foul.

I don't bitch about the refs.....

That's for losers.

Looks like Russ had a helluva game

He been adapting to the bench role this season

 

[DJ Fieri]

Saw an article the Nets may be interested in Melo as a stopgap till KD returns....

 

[DJ Fieri]

Patty Mills getting a lot of DNP's....womder if he could be had at the trade deadline with Vaughn not utilizing him much.

[The Q]

He doesn't want to leave

I know.

Js.

They’re kind of a mess

Any chance of contention right now hands on sharpe and this pick, plus nurkic and dame not falling off the cliff as they’re getting to those ages and miles…

I don’t you two as a great trade match

They need size or a real backup pg…that’s not nunn

 

[The Q]

Gotta give Russ his props.

Dude does not cheat the game.

Yeah. I can’t blame Russ for..:.getting old and declining


I guess not learning how to shoot, but I have a hard time believing he didn’t try either

Do they even need him? Warren and watanbe can cover most of those minutes at the 4

The guy they need most is walker though and you can’t just absorb a salary to lower their tax

Soft ass, passive aggressive trolling of other posters is also for losers.

Everyone knows who you are referring too.

Despite the box score, Lebron didn’t.

He and Schroeder were out their building luxury estates with all those 3 pt bricks.

Free throw shooting was less than stellar as well.

They still should have won.

That Brown Jr no call was egregious.

They have a couple of days off to rest.

Gonna need it because they were clearly gassed.

Literally have not seen a Melo to the Nets rumor since like November.

So, that would be surprising if true.

Warren, Harris, Watannabe, Ben and Royce should be able to soak up those minutes.

Well, not Ben because he won’t shoot.

But, I would love that for Melo.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Should have never been on him. At the very least, foul him before the shot

Poor coaching, which Ham acknowledged.

Half the Season is over.

We aren’t to every game counts territory quite yet.

But, it’s going to get that much tougher to catch the teams ahead of them with every conference loss.

Good news for them is they’re still only a game out of the play in and a good/bad week form being a 7/8 seed

With the right trades they can make a run and frankly any top 5 seed in the west could take the conference imo

Not into unfairly ripping the refs but this just can't be ignored.

Weak calls from these refs in the Bama game.

Jerry Tillery is an idiot.

And the refs were fucking awful.

Horrible play calling....we got too conservative.

And the refs were awful.

Obviously for the last couple decades (or more) the West has been the better conference. It has gotten closer in recent years and maybe even tipped over to the East.

This year- its a clear no-doubt answer. The East is better than the West.

When was the last time you could say that definitively?

The 3 best teams might be in the East.

Cleveland, Philly are very solid.

The 3 teams in the West with the worst record- the Lakers, SPurs and Rockets- used to be perennial contenders. Now they are at the bottom of the Western Standings. The Suns have fallen off. The Warriors have been injured and are getting old.

Absolutely.

Only problem?

They might not pull the trigger, which I think is INSANE.

Denver is the clear cut best team out west.

Just a game ago, It took extreme effort for them to put the Lakers away, without Davis.

Denver is the top tier.

Memphis a rung lower.

Without a healthy Zion and Ingram, NOLA is bunched with the rest of the faux contenders.

Whichever team makes the best trade to address an area of need could legitimately come out of the West this year.

the West is totally up for grabs. I have never seen it so wide open. There are legimately 6-7 teams, maybe more, that could come out of the WEst.

* ummmmm, errrrrrr, various signs of hesitation *

@DJ is my guy.

So, I’m going to leave this alone.

But, this is fucking funny…lol

There is a reason I have not said a single word to @tlance or @trojanfan12 about this topic.

They are consistently…well, consistent….on the subject.
