2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

What was the offer?

I can’t pull up the athletic at work.

Me either sure it will come out. I think the offer wasn't the problem. It seems like the added stipulations was

Irving, Harden, and Embiid is pretty scary trio.

Lmfao

He left Brooklyn to get away from Kyrie.

 

[shopson67]

He absolutely deserved it over Halliburton. Harden scores more and does it more efficiently. Harden has more assists per game. Halliburton is a better two way player for sure. Is the All Star game in 2023 about defense now? I have a hard time assessing when defense matters and when it doesn’t because all of this has become about bull shit narrative. Harden has become the player everyone said he needed to be playing with Embiid. No way in hell this mother fucker isn’t an All Star. DeRozan, Halliburton, Holiday … Harden better than all of them. Coaches just mailed shit in. Trae Young is averaging 30 and 10 and he’s not an All Star either? This is my fault for giving a fuck when NBA coaches clearly don’t.

It's hard to suppress my laughter. You're using the Jokic argument that you despise for Harden.

 

[shopson67]

Ok, what reason would he have to low blow Mitchell? Is it not a possibility that he was trying to look for the ball?

and hey, he found two! Who'da thunk it?

 

[shopson67]

You’re more than welcome to work in some Austin Reaves trades. Maybe they can land Siakam and FVV for Reaves and a jock strap.

He's not available for trade. They have to take Russ or Bev. I'll throw in Jones and JTA if needed.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Lmfao

Sorry, forgot the green font.

In a head to head comparison with Halliburton who makes the team because of his 10+ assists per game?

 

[The Q]

Lmfao

He left Brooklyn to get away from Kyrie.

I thought he left cause kd called him fat lol

 

[shopson67]

@trojanfan12 @DJ @shopson67 @Retroram52 @wildturkey @Black Adam

I know some of y’all moved out of Cali.

But……

Da Fuq?

MSN

I was only in Cali for 5-6 months, lol.

 

[fightinfunbags]

I thought he left cause kd called him fat lol

He left because Kunty Black Hitler the Antisemite got all Q Anon over the vaccine and decided to become an activist and not a basketball player.

 

[shopson67]

Dude…

Sounds like herpes.

That's what happens when you'll eat anything...

 

[shopson67]

So, he didn’t get the extension he wanted?

LMFAO

Cue up the Kyrie Lakers rumors.

But, watch out for the back door ing ass Clippers and I wonder if Dallas has had a change of heart?

This fucking guy…lol

Three way trade with the Hornets or Jazz. Send Rozier or Conley to the Nets as part of the deal, keeping the Nets playoff hopes intact.

 

[shopson67]

I'd do that Utah deal if Conley and Olynyk coming back with Vanderbilt

I'd prefer Beasley over Olynyk.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Next few days are going to be interesting that's for sure

….and a pick?

Because, asshole or not, Rozier and Conley are a downgrade.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Yep.

Could be fire works.

If Kyrie gets dealt, teams might stop lowballing for Durant too.

Toronto has been fucking trash.

So, maybe they will come off some of those assets now?

 

[wildturkey]

I'd prefer Beasley over Olynyk.

Nah. Lakers need front court depth. Olynyk is skilled enough to play both beside AD and fill in when AD is off the floor. He can play both PF and C.

I thought he left cause kd called him fat lol

I prefer the term slothy….lol

Rest easy, my guy.

76ers not interested in Kyrie Irving

Jason Dumas: Source: The Sixers will not be making any Kyrie Irving inquiries. The organization doesn’t have any interest.

Nets dumb if they trade with the Lakers unless they plan on blowing everything up (trading KD) or get more teams involved. Nets can still be contenders with KD but you ain't getting shit back if its just Westbrook and picks.. There's better deals out there to remain contenders. Dallas is interesting because they are desperate for another all star next to Luka. But I'd be VERY cautious about putting Kyrie next to Luka. Stylistically, that can be a clash.
