The 2023-2024 NBA Season

BINGO

They didn't compete last night. From the first half of the 1st, you had a good idea of how that game would end up.

Luckily, wasn't able to watch.

 

[bksballer89]

Yeah but that’s bad enough

Yep but better than a 6-8 week injury. I'll take it

Jimmy need to pick up his aggression, Caleb need to get his ass back, and role players ( I'm looking at you Richardson) need to step up.

Schedule isn't terrible. I think they can play above .500 over the next 2+ weeks if 2 of those 3 things happen

Rui the only guy that showed up.

It was bad enough to make me turn back to the Clippers game.

Is there a better value contract in the league right now? This guy costs 2 million

Dude is a mid level guy at minimum.

He was good in Phoenix.

Yeah I’m not sure how a team like Memphis didn’t get a 3 for the small mle

I was saying talent teams should’ve taken a look at him last year

Bill REALLY REALLY hated the Harden trade. Partly because he's a Clippers fan. Mostly because he's a Celtics fan.

Oubre being on a good team could turn his entire financial career around.

Loss is understandable, margin isn't.

Meh, margin doesn't bother me. It was on the road vs. a team looking to try to get a big win vs. a WC contender.

The only starter who played more than 27 minutes was D-Lo and on top of everyone they were already missing, AD sat out.

Max Christie played 28 minutes, Reddish played 25...hell, Castleton played 14 minutes and Hodge played 10.

If the Lakers were at full strength, Reddish and Christie aren't playing those kind of minutes and Castleton and Hodge are in the G-League.

Theis makes sense

I still like Derrick favors and gorg dieng

Favors still a FA, the Clipps should be calling his agent,

The only reason the minutes looked like that is because Lakers were down 28 entering the 4th so there was no need to play the starters which led to all the other guys playing the minutes you mentioned. D-Lo and the other starters likely all play close to 35 minutes had the game ever been close.

This Nick Nurse quote is scary. They’re not even close to having all the install in yet. That’s crazy.

“Some of those pick and pop 3’s were miscommunications that weren’t on (Embiid). We had a scheme in that it was supposed to be somebody else rotating to that guy...We got about 40% of our defensive schemes in and that’s like one we haven’t worked on that much."

They did the puffs thing with his hair again, @Mecca....

SMH.

The system is centered on getting rid of a system

Yea teams will struggle to score 70 points vs them once 100% is in
