The 2023-2024 NBA Season

[fightinfunbags]

No, it’ll show that Jokic can play at an MVP level and be consistent. If Embiid doesn’t play 20% of the season how can he be the Most Valuable Player? If the biggest knock on someone is they can’t stay on the court(either by always being injured or load management) how is he the best player in the league? You’re an NFL fan, this is no different than a QB on pace for insane numbers yet only plays in 12/17 games. When’s the last time someone like that won the MVP?

Your ratio is off. It’s more like playing 14/17 with one of the 14 being a shortened appearance due to injury.

 

[fightinfunbags]

He still hasn’t been

Hasn’t happened yet

Not 1st team All NBA in 21 and 22? Not MVP in 21? He’s absolutely been shorted.

Idk what golden state does

Even if they let klay and Paul walk they don’t have real cap space but could replace one with a nice mle

Trading moody and kuminga might open up more but where are they at then?

Been discussing it above, if Curry is on board I think you try to go with youth (keep Kuminga, Podz, J-D). Even if you don't get any more titles with him you maybe build for when he retires.

 

[msgkings322]

I’m sick and tired of the man being shorted. It’s just sports. I’m making a sports argument. Lighten up Francis

Guy who never stops bitching about his hero tells other guy to lighten up. LOL.

He’s already missed 7 of the first 33 and you can only miss 17 games a season. There’s 49 games left and he can’t miss more than 10, thats gonna be a tall task.

 

[The Q]

I tried to do Royce for Tucker on the ESPN trade machine and it didn’t work salary wise.

I’m confused because Royce is at a shade under 10 and Dump Truck Tuck is at 11.

i tried one and it worked

but here's what I got cooking

Tucker
Amir
Bones
Brown
Boston
Primo

Oneal and DFS


it takes every last one of them since it's 100k short without Primo

he wasn't the best player at his position

and there's only one spot

it's dumb to not have spots for the all nba team.

 

[SpringStein]

No doubt! But there are levels to this. Embiid took the floor against an 11 seed the other night and had 31/15/10 in 3 Q because his team boatraced a bad opponent. Jokic hits a huge shot to win a game late. Awesome. Embiid leaves no doubt. He’s sat 11 4Qs this year in the 25 games he’s played. Embiid has gone next level this season.

So you are comparing playing the Bulls at home to playing the Warriors on the road?

Both great players, not sure why anyone gets all fired up about who wins the MVP. But that's just me.

Yes I am. The Bulls have actually been a better team lately. Holy shit! Embiid vs the slop the Warriors are playing at the 5 these days. Mon dieu!

Traditional spots is the only way Tatum gets 1st team NBA so I understand where you’re coming from.

No team has that many open roster spots

The NBA mvp was first given out in '56. Derrick Rose is the only winner of the award that's not a lock for Springfield.

Win an mvp in the NBA and 99.9% of the time you've punched your ticket to the HOF.

They can cut guys

Goddamn….

I meant one or the other.

But, I like this deal better.

I’m good with that trade as long as it is made in the next 2 hours. Thunder at Brooklyn tonight.

They don’t need help to beat Brooklyn.

I hope not. They have been putting a lot into every game but they were off last night. Ok trade rescinded then, long term those guys would help too much.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The Clippers and Heat ML tonight.

The last of the 100 I kept from the big fucking win a little while back.

The Pelicans own the Clippers.

Might wanna rethink that bet.
