The 2023-2024 NBA Season

[DJ Fieri]

That dunk by James in OT with 2:12 left was pretty sweet.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I will say this.

If the Clippers can stay healthy they will be a problem in the WC. May be a longshot but if PG and Leonard went to Germany to get some of that Rhinoceros plasma......watch out.

 

[DJ Fieri]

They played all 3 bigs for a stretch and it was working. Never would've thought...

I said this when they signed Wood.

Bron has always been natural a SF.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Wood with that dunk to finalize the game was nice.

Such a nice signing.

Memphis dropped to 0-5 with a loss to Utah? The season could be over for them by the time Ja returns.

Just sayin' Russ is still Russ, not a shooter

All I know is he is shooting 52% from the field so far this year. That has to be the best number of his career.

Yeah Russ played well and shooting efficient so far. Clippers offense get too stagnant late in games though. One possession late in the game ended in only pg touching the ball with a contested 3 being the end result

Just came across this tweet. Giannis irritates me lol you are a top 3 player in the world. You don't need a coach to tell you who to guard especially in the playoffs. You go to him and say i got jimmy you fucking moron

Biggest surprise so far on the good side - Mavs at 4-0. Biggest surprise on the bad side - Heat at 1-4.

What did that rat cunts Silver do?

 

[DJ Fieri]

No

I didn't think so.

I didn't think so.

Simply put, dude (Morris) is way past his prime... father time is undefeated.

I’d be pleased if coming home to Philly rejuvenates him…











So he can give 8-10 minutes a game without being a complete liability.

Dallas added some nice players....a full season of Luka and Kyrie together will help also.

I know

I’m in the process of kicking his ass

 

[fightinfunbags]

This was the controversial foul call last night? Why? This is a foul on the elbow of the shooter.

Even at his best, Morris was not a ball movement guy.

Rather, he was a decent shooter plus ISO dribble guy who could get his own shot.

I don't think he fits what y'all are trying to do under Nurse.

(but really... this is moot because dude is washed)

I didn't think it was all that controversial. Calling it, although pretty late, was fine and letting it go would have been fine too. Get near a shooters elbow like that and the refs are usually going to call it. On the replay, there wasn't enough to overturn the call, but there also wasn't enough for it to end up on that "shit the refs got wrong in the last 2 minutes" thing if they hadn't called it.

 

[The Q]

Couple of interesting factoids...

Average height of an NBA player is 6'6 1/2"

Average weight is 215.3.

Lebron is the leagues oldest player at 38, but the Lakers are one of the youngest teams.

The oldest teams in the league are the Bucks, Clips and Warriors.

I read a newsletter over the summer that said The reality is most of the leagues best players are 6-6 or taller

So drafting guys shorter than that always comes with a bigger risk
