The 2024-2025 NBA Basketball Season

did you wonder why Mazzulo did not win it last year over Daigneault?

With all respect to the Celtics they did not have the regular season the Thunder just did. I get it, it is what it is.

Yep.

It's between Udoka and Bickerstaff to be honest. Atkinson has done a good job but he's also JJ's shoes.....they were expected to be good....

Don't think Cavs expected to be nearly this good but still agree other 2 as or more deserving....but guess is KA gets it.

Na I’m not, just was seeing a lot talk about how he really was torn. Guessing he got the bat signal from San Antonio that it all was settled.

are you a draft conspiracy guy, too, as well as extreme homer?

Lmao I’m not a homer in any way. I bring facts, nothing more.

Cs had a pretty damn good reg. season last year and could have made rthe same case for him ....and if a Cs fan you would have.

The Thunder have to win a title for it to matter, but if they do you are going to hear some people saying things about this team that have been said of very few teams ever. The regular season component is there.

show me where I have said the Thunder are going to win anything, other than the predictions thread. I’m a fan sure, but I’m as level headed as anyone here. Generally when I talk about the thunder it’s pointing out stats, which are facts.

For just one title, likely no. Win multiple titles might start getting more of that discussion.

I’m talking a discussion about being in the greatest single season teams ever. The numbers would be there.

sure thing.

You are railing over a coach not getting COTY going from 1 seed to the 1 seed. I do believe you follow the sport closely so should understand why he didn't win it and even agree others as or more deserving.

I mean, if you want that extra credit (which isn't a thing) I guess could at least put them in discussion.....but not sure those asked would put them over the 72 win Bulls. Maybe if they roll through the playoffs?

People are entitled to their opinion about who is more deserving, these things are popularity contests. I just happen to disagree with your argument, to me you are advocating for a most improved coach award.

You are missing things. The Thunder just set records for margin of victory and most double digit wins. But to me leading in every single defensive clutch category is the most impressive. That is effort beyond belief. Got to win though, go Thunder.

It's the players...wait, it's the coaches....MJ does nothing wrong....Lebron does nothing right.

You can pick.

Really dude..

I know you’re playin cause you’re smarter than this..

Or maybe not

Find me one post where I post anything sayin leflop is not a gifted player?

Find me one post prior to the most recent convos about MJ that I even even brought his name up in regards to a comparison to leflop?

Shit is gettin stale

I mean, is something wrong with most improved also getting it? did you rail as much for Phillips, Riley or Kerr not winning more?

Unless you just don't think your team has the roster capable of doing what they have and with a different coach would not be nearly as good?

Cannot say I knew enough to go too deep in to the Bulls' 72 win season as not a big a thing then and didn't really know any Bulls' fans who wanted to point it out.

I do agree IF they win it all and roll through playoffs like Bulls did could make a case 68 wins could trump the 72.

you are priceless, my friend....but not very self aware.

You are both right.

What the Thunder have done this season SHOULD get them in the discussion with all time great single season teams assuming they win the title.

But it won’t unless they back it up with more hardware.

‘83 (I think) Sixers are a prime example of this. That team was dominant. But you don’t hear them in these types of talks because when you don’t have other titles to back it up, it looks a little flukey.
