2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

Thank you for giving KD credit.

Nothing wrong with asking to be traded.

KD went about it in a classy way and the Nets obliged.

Good on both.

Piece of evidence #7,235,862 why KD was not the main source of blame in Brooklyn.

He definitely wasn't the main source. Dude just wants to ball

Aside from his very thin ego

Shit like that pisses me the fuck off. I saw it live. It was clear as hell that there was no disrespect intended.

People need to stop being offended for the sake of being offended.

Going to take the other side here.

I don’t think it is about who is offended necessarily. And intent really is irrelevant. Most inappropriate comments start off as intended jokes.

I’m definitely not offended, but the fine is justified.

Cam seems like a good person and one who will learn from this, which is the intent of the fine in the first place. Fines are literally intended as a slap on the wrist. $40 K for someone at his salary is like $500 for a normal middle class person.

Have to choose words carefully when in front of the camera. The league has to draw a line somewhere, and while I don’t think many would find the comment “offensive”, it is difficult to argue that it was appropriate either.

Fuck Portland and their shady ass front office

Yeah, forcing GP to play through an injury is just horrible.

Good to see two things last night. Tyrese Maxey got off again. He has been trying to figure out this bench role. But the best news. MonTrashZel gets a DNP and Paul Reed was actually +4 in non Embiid minutes.

Eh…

More likely that GP wanted to play and that Portland training staff failed to stop him.

Still a bad look for Portland.

But that is a far cry from forcing him to play

Looking forward to this Lakers vs W's game to see how all the new pieces fit together.


Lets go, Ham!!!!

If we don't improve....maybe it's time to consider trading James in the offseason.

 

[trojanfan12]

Mitchell was traded to CLE in September wtf lol

I have a hard time believing the Heat wanted to trade Bam.

 

[trojanfan12]

Kid is out there killing the Pels.

That's because he went to a well known basketball school. lol

I thought I felt a disturbance in the force last night.

I don't like the idea of Lebron openly discussing trading specific players (not convinced he did), but they had 55 games to prove they were better than he thinks they are and didn't.

Remember when Kobe did? LOL.

He is like Kobe in that aspect.....I think he could and did.

They beat the Rockets by a bucket.

Report: Los Angeles Clippers never held serious talks on Kyle Lowry

The Los Angeles Clippers never held serious talks on a trade for Miami Heat point guard Kyle Lowry, according to ESPN’s Zach Lowe. Los Angeles made a handful of deals ahead of the trade deadline on Thursday, but the team wasn’t able to land one of the big-name point guards on the market.

Oh if only fines were just for that purpose. I’m not going political here though.
