The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

Well you finally found something, congrats. It means absolutely nothing, but congrats antaeag.

Means nothing? Tell that to Embiid and the Sixers.

And steals and blocks are not how we evaluate defense.

Casual fan shit

When you find a way to compare eye test on a discussion board, let me know. Chet has been elite defending his spot behind the bench this year, I'll give you that.

You mean like jumping teams when your team has a down year?

Who said I’m not a Heat fan? I’m allowed to have a rooting interest after the Heat are eliminated in the play in round or first round of the playoffs. Didn’t know that broke any rules to root for another team to bring home a title when your favorite team is out the picture

Good to know though

It's Pat Bev. I didn't even read the article when it popped up as I assumed it was going to be the opposite take, given his defensive leanings. He's not even consistent in his bat-shit craziness.

He really is.

I laughed when I saw that tweet.

Yeah.

I’m actually not allowed to watch the playoffs because the Wizards aren’t ever in them.

You would know these things if your team was perennially bad.

I said it at the time. He probably angling to get back on her Lakers....LOL.

I fucking hate snow.

You are being a bitch about this for some reason, not a good look.

 

[DJ Fieri]

people really getting triggered over Chet?

LIKE PEOPLE ON HERE HAVEN'T CALLED AD STREET CLOTHES? LOL

Oh, the irony and hypocrisy....

 

[Shanemansj13]

And with the 2 Chet is still no where near 100 %.

To be fair, when is he ever really healthy

 

[Shanemansj13]

Isn't that a reason to question their ability to get the job done in the postseason? Injuries are the ultimate equalizer. Regular season is just the appetizer.

There are good reasons to question Cleveland and OKC. Both have played great this year so far but I can understand hesitation on both

 

[Shanemansj13]

Did you respond to the wrong post? You quoted a comment about questioning if the Thunder were for real and responded about AR.

As far as AR goes, Is 16/8/6 better than 19/4/6? Certainly not by a wide margin, especially if you factor in availability.

The only reason I question Chet is availability when factoring in their entire game, no question Chet is better

Truth bomb.

A big like him?

No question.

Just because you may not win a title doesn’t make you not for real/legit. They were trying to use okc losing to Dallas last year as such a bad thing like Dallas didn’t have 2 of the best offensive players in the world. Doesn’t make your season a failure/means your season is a failure if you lose to another really good team. If the Cavs lose to the Knicks in the 2nd round in 6 or 7 games, I wouldn’t consider the Cavs season a failure

 

[thunderc]

Played 82 last season. The verdict is still out in my opinion. Playing 82 shows he can handle a full season, he doesn’t have the little nagging stuff that a lot of players never get rid of, yet anyway. He has had 2 very major injuries and those can be just bad luck. We will know a lot more 2 years from now for sure.

 

[thunderc]

The moral of this story is we need games to start back

On paper the Sixers are a very good team - arguably a championship team

And when they win the paper championship this year I’m going to draw on a piece of paper an expensive bottle of champagne and cigar and celebrate!!
