The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

[WiggyRuss]

Cavs resting Mitchell tonight. Seems a little odd considering no B2B involved (before or after tonight) but whatever. Adjust FD or DK lineups accordingly

glad they rested him- but Atkinson has done really well managing his minutes.

last year he was pushed a ton- some of it was needed because of injuries- but having a healthy Mitchell at the end is a huge thing. He could not even dunk at the end of the season last year since he had a pretty fucked up knee.

Well wait for it lol

they will def. come- its a long season.

You can win big money on fanduel if the cavs go 82-0

I think you should place the bet

 

[WiggyRuss]

at Boston is going to be very very tough.

If they can get by Boston though- next 4 are New Orleans, Toronto, Atlanta, Atlanta. Fairly do-able.

 

[WiggyRuss]

if they can get past Boston then 20-0 is on the table.........after those 4 games after Boston -- then they get Boston again at home.

All considering- I think its likely it stops Tuesday and that would not be the worst thing. Starts carrying some pressure at some point. I would like to see them beat Boston and have a chance to get to 20-0 though.

ill just hope for 60+ wins. That would be awesome. 60 wins is hard enough.

Hey they are up 8.5 on the Heat right now!

Near the beginning of the season I thought that the Cavs goal should be the 2 seed and making it to the ECF.

If they lose before the ECF to a fully healthy and rolling Sixers team with Embiid, Maxey and George---- or the Knicks start rolling with Towns, Bridges, Brunson, OG- it'll be a bummer but it wouldn't be a huge shock.

But the goal should be 2 seed and ECF-- and then if its Boston then you gotta just play it out and see how it goes. Keep taking steps forward.

Another day, another Cavs win

First bad loss of the year for the Thunder, everyone has them.

Except Cleveland

Depth will be tested. Hope wade and okoro are okay. Merrill and Strus ankle injuries. First time depth will be tested quite a bit if any of those injuries are semi-serious

Harden just passed Ray Allen on the career 3 pointers made list, now in 2nd place behind you know who

We will see, I don’t expect many losses to teams with losing records without their best player.

And I don’t expect the team your team lost to last night to have a losing record much longer.

So there’s that...

Well I would hope not but the fact is they aren’t very good at the moment.

They played the most games in the league. Very compact schedule and quite a bit of back to backs. Plus Boston Tuesday. Already 15 games in 25 games. At one point 12 in 20 games.

Yeah not a big deal they did it......saw some complaining but figure their trainers/docs know better than random fans.

 

[dtgold88]

It was going to end Tuesday night in Boston with or without injuries. Just facts

That's an opinion.

 

[dtgold88]

Daugherty, Nance and Price. Yep. I like these but not the black and light blue

are you talking last night's jerseys? Don't think it's any era. Color had something to do with the city.

I don't really think the knee was excess minutes (pretty much a little more than in Utah and as you said due to other guys out) but less can be good. Having Jerome, an actual backup PG, helps so much.

The blue and orange, not last nights
