The Official NBA Season Thread: I’m like Jayson Tatum in the Olympics I'm not playing

[storm2006]

Late February of his senior year Bronny James makes the Top 10 in one mock draft and now every NTer who ever questioned how good he would should be shamed. Even though the many folks who get paid to scout weren’t sold on him until after 3.5 years either.

Y’all just want to point fingers for the sake of pointing fingers. High school prospects make leaps every year, B.

I remember when Nico Mannion was like #5 on one of those year in advance ESPN mocks

They know what they doing dropping Bronny in there for the hot takes and conversation

Hope the youngin keeps grindin and getting better tho, but a mock before yo even finished high school ain’t the time to puff your chest out or told you so

No surprises here…Ppl been clowning the Utah all star weekend for years then The lineup of folks involved didn’t lead to excitement going into it

 

[B Sox]

“Red Mamba” they said. Not going to lie, though…those Nico Mannion x Spencer Rattler Ballislife videos had me fooled

I wonder if Nico will return. I think the Warriors still own his rights.

 

[Coupé It]

Yoooooo

Back in the day when we all call it simply the sidestep rather than what they call now as the euro like its the first time that people have seen and done it.

This league is headed for some dark days. We are in the beginning stages of that right now.

 

[Based Jesus]

Skill level is as high as it has ever been. Worldwide viewership numbers go up every year. International players getting better and better every draft. League gonna be fine.

Contracts and tv deals only getting bigger. Everyone involved is making money. The next generation in good hands

The lack of importance on reg season may be an issue, but people still tuning in and buying tix

So far there are no visibly apparent, transcendent talents in the new generation.

The current legends are aging out. And it sucks.

 

[pmatic]

Giannis, Jokic and Luka?

Does Wemby not being the most hyped prospect since Lebron not count?

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

People still haven't caught on to how good Vic is yet

 

[Blue Mamba]

Giannis, Jokic and Luka?

NT hates all of them so they don’t count

 

[MVP]

There's going to likely be a lockout. The TV money is going to go up naturally because that's how things are that's across all sports.

It’s always somebody up next and you rarely see it until it’s happening…Nobody knew Steph would be what he his now even on draft day, hard to predict the real superstars ahead of time

 

[elpablo21]

NT hates all of them so they don’t count

The current guys have their own hate threads

Nobody counts if that's the case
