The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

If they really have any suspicion that trade needs to happen I would think.

Its just me but unless its a stomach virus, any other stomach issue shouldn't stop you from playing. Go to the bathroom and do what you have to do and get your ass back on the court but heard that he did something to his ankle earlier as well?

O/U: 7.5 days until Butler is traded

Doubt it. Miami doesn't want Beal and unless there is a secret team, I don't think the warriors got enough to make the trade because I doubt Miami want Kuminga since it requires them likely offering him a big deal to make that trade make sense.

No, it is very weak and soft. Quit trying to be an idiot. They allow more today than they ever have. That is soft.

You do realize that the reason there are so many 3s is because they don’t shoot midrange anymore right?

They still get to the rim and take just as many shots in close as ever before. They just get there in different ways. Through drives instead of post entry.

And there is contact on every drive, every trip down court.

Saying the NBA is soft is an uneducated opinion.

Would be pretty crazy for Miami to refuse a Butler for Kuminga + salary trade IMO.

Herro and Bam need a 3rd. I could see Kuminga developing into that guy.

Is it a contending core? No. But it is a playoff team and that seems like a Riley move to me.

Just don’t think Miami would want to commit to a long term deal for kuminga. Had he not been a guy set to hit free agency in the summer then this trade would be more likely

Absolutely spot-on with that one, coach. With the floor spacing these days and players in All the positions getting stronger, faster, and better shooters the mid-range game is not quite a thing of the past, but hardly the weapon it used to be...

Also getting to the rim is still a thing because of course why wouldn't get the and-1 if you can? The game definitely ain't softer imho...

So honestly what’s the deal with Jimmy? We all thought this would be his best regular season in a while playing for a contract. It seems to be pretty obvious though that Jimmy is going to be Jimmy and whatever happens happens.

 

[bksballer89]

8 steals
14 turnovers

Yeah I saw that, that’s ok I still think they are going to do it.

What’s on the line again? Finishing season with more steals than turnovers? That would be quite an accomplishment

Yes it’s never been done in the history of the nba

"quit trying to be an idiot" <--- You know the bestest wurdz.

Maybe you should stop talking since you have no idea what you're talking about. You old enough to remember the NBA in the 1980's? This was just a common foul.

 

[dtgold88]

It’s not refutable. It’s pretty obvious the game of today from back in the day. I could see a low IQ individual trying to debate it though.

oh, the irony.

wow...this is factually incorrect never mind completely absurd.

 

[dtgold88]

No Lillard but still a hell of a game by the Cavs vs. the red hot Bucks last night.

I get it.....still a long way to go.

Jimmy got sick

He wants out

I get that. Committing to a guy playing for your team for one half of a season is tough.
