The 2023-2024 NBA Season

The 3 point shot is the gimmick

Q basketball. Not surprised that the Celtics guy loves the era of carpenters and plumbers.

Gimme post focused ball every day of the week

The way the game was meant to be played

I’ll believe it when I see it. Lopez has competed well vs Embiid since he came to the Bucks. I think the Bucks defense is vulnerable though when playoffs become a ton of half court stuff.

Back to backs are tough for a reason, especially against good teams

excuses

excuses

Sure man. Whatever you say. Denver’s had more than twice as many b2b games as the other top teams in the West. This game goes completely different if they got the same rest as the Thunder.

The only person in the whole league who gets to use the back to back excuse is Lebron and that's only because he's 75 years old.

Did they travel last night/arrive in denver late or did they sleep in their home at 11 pm local time?

Maybe show your opponent some respect?

Anybody watching Bucks Cavs? What are they doing to Milwaukee that has them 52 points at half? Is it Bucks poor play or is Cleveland doing stuff?

Well, whatever it was the Bucks have figured it out. 34 point 3Q so far with 3 minutes left in the quarter.

They figured out how to get to the FT line late. 3 straight bogus calls on Giannis and Lillard, living at the FT line like always. One was a Giannis hook, one Lillard flopped. Cavs did all they could to stay in that game short-handed and star treatment took over. Not like it is unexpected

 

[Shanemansj13]

Well a long season to go. It will be a FT contest.

Boston still the team to beat

Did I not call them a good team?

I have heard the Thunder talk about how having young legs makes a difference on back to backs and how they know they can run a team that is on a back to back. The win in Denver 2 weeks ago though wasn’t on a back to back, it’s obvious the Thunder are good enough to beat the Nuggets, right now anyway.

Simply the better team

I’m having a hard time taking it all in, just enjoying it while it’s here.

Thinking about the Thunder and how teams are having a hard time matching their efficiency on offense and I decided to look it up. The Thunder do lead the Western Conference but I was very surprised that the top 5 in the league are actually Eastern conference teams.

It's odd. He played well last year and for Team USA. Haliburton and Edwards' play carried over but his hasn't (yet) for whatever reason. I don't think he's as good as those two, but he at least looked the part of an all star.
