The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

No, the first round pick was in 2031 maam

And admittedly I did forget it was the 2031 pick so that's my bad!

You dont trade your starting center for a pick 6 years from now.

So yes, as per stated, the offer was trash.

Don't worry, some team will trade for that 2031 "trash" pick this summer.

In the realm of first round picks anything from LA in the future is well down the list. That is meant as a compliment

As recently as a few months ago, that story was different. Lebron and likely AD gone by those late picks, but Luka resets the timeline.

Yeah, prior to the Luka trade, a 1st rounder from the Lakers looked like it might be pretty good. Maybe even a lottery pick depending on what they could get with the cap space they'd have after Lebron/AD.

I'll bet some teams that have future firsts from the Lakers are not happy about that trade. lol

Danny has got to be furious. His 2027 pick is looking weaker plus he got conned into helping the trade along. Rob might as well cross off Jazz players as trade targets for a while lol.

How would I know? Shane is way worse than you...every game almost

I don't complain about them much and in this instance I think he was right. Not so much favoring the opponent just bad in general.

 

[dtgold88]

It has nothing to do with win or lose. Cavs could very well win this game. Almost 60 FT’s combined. The game has been officiated poorly, plain and simple. I continue to call out shit crews. I called out crews in a Cavs blowout too

Enjoy it

I agree they were pretty bad.....will say the alleged bad call late on Strus was his own fault. No, he was never touched so no foul should have been called be he flopped on the play making it seem like he was hit. do they still fine for flopping?

 

[dtgold88]

So Strus never touched Simons and he gets called for the foul LOL

There should be a rule outlawing multiple chicks on one ref crew

kind of ninjad......Strus was to blame for this. If never touched (which he wasn't) he should not have fallen down as though he was (flopped).

 

[dtgold88]

How did it end up in ot? Turned it when the Cavs intentionally fouled up 3 late in the 4th

Guessing your Q was answered......but I definitely don't like this strategy of intentionally fouling with that much time left. when only time for one more shot? Ok...maybe.

 

[dtgold88]

man the Cavs could not hit the broadside of a barn in the first half.....there was one possession where they got 4 offensive rebounds and just kept clanking shots. I was watching at my parents and left about half way through the 3rd and kind of gave up on the game--- was shocked when I saw they came back and Hunter went wild.

Cavs are deep---- Ty Jerome and Hunter led the scoring today.

Mitchell
Garland
Mobley
Allen
Strus
Hunter
Jerome
Wade
Okoro

that is a helluva top 9 to choose from on a given night. at least 7 of those guys can light it up depending on the night.

Yep....and Merrill deserves his chances, too.

 

[dtgold88]

Women are more sensitive. That is how the world works. Sorry to disappoint you.

Not surprised, you stick for any refs even if they are wrong

Guessing he may agree women as a whole are more sensitive.....but does not mean those particular women are more sensitive than all the male refs.

But agreed they were pretty bad.

Thanks. @Shanemansj13 was too busy arguing about the refs to respond to me

 

[dtgold88]

No it's not. As I said, hasn't been as much this year...but you have both earned your reps for constantly bitching about the refs.

post #12,481 shane bitched about the refs, then in post #12,42 said that "we rarely complain about the refs".

Then complains about the refs in 4 of his next 6 posts.

I'm one who has called them out for the ref complaining but if "it hasn't been much this year" then it's not constant.

 

[dtgold88]

Thanks. @Shanemansj13 was too busy arguing about the refs to respond to me

Guess then to fully answer I think we started fouling maybe with 15-20 seconds left then they fouled of course and we missed one then we unintentionally fouled and they hit both FTs to tie it and send to OT.

 

[dtgold88]

Yep I made one post and thread derailed by others.

it’s ashame

Yeah even when you or others do make a pos about refs wouldn't call it derailed.....and if it is derailed it's only because someone couldn't let your complaint go and complained.

Should not foul until roughly 5 seconds left imo

 

[bksballer89]

Knicks best 4qtr team in game


60% shooting

90% free throws

Don’t count them out

I counted them out

Honestly I was talking about one inparticular that had complaints league wide by players and coaches but I will leave it at that
