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

[ballinsam23]

A healthy KP is a real good player, but if you’re labeling him as your 2nd best player, yea you’re not getting anywhere.

John Wall would be on a roster if he wasn’t a bad lockerroom guy on top of being a bad player.

Wait how you know he’s a bad lockerroom guy?

Porzingis had some really good seasons with the Mavs but got Damb it was a roller coaster with his health

 

[Mark Antony]

People don't know enough about their relationship to be saying this, plus I wouldn't force marriage on a 20 year old. They'll do those things anyways.

 

[Mark Antony]

Hmm



I’m not mad (?)

Insert pride month corporation memes

I'm actually with it with corporate entities. Pay me my right money, give me the day and F off.

Chris Paul for Jordan Poole trade can't happen until July 6.

[Mister Meaner]

Surprising nobody.

But if he goes somewhere else to play I’m gonna miss having one of the s in the ear of Deuce and the youts.

Makes no sense going back to Chitown now so son should stay where he’s comfy; right here.

Only way id want Rose to go back to the Chi is if he brings back the ceasar, no shooting sleeve and the D Rose 1's.

Miller is definitely making a name for himself

Miller is definitely making a name for himself

He’s trying to put his name in the hat early for 2024 First Team Irrational Confidence

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

You can definitely see the Paul George influence

 

[NickFolarin]

A HOF career worth of quotables before Summer League

I blame ant edwards

 

[antidope]

I'm still so confused by this Warriors trade. Chris Paul is gonna get hurt in May no matter what

This isn’t cool

 

[antidope]

This isn’t cool

I don't mean it as wishing it upon him. He's old and injury prone. It's why I didn't really trust the Suns.

I apologize though

[RustyShackleford]

I hope CP says fully healthy through the season

And the Suns get to play the Suns in the playoffs, with CP at 100%.

And I hope when Booker cooks his ***, he quotes the wise words of a future HOF point guard in the post-series interview...

Basically treated Poole like a negative asset

 

[storm2006]

Being an injury prone player has to be mentally draining. I feel like reading “But he’s going to be hurt come May” is more disappointing than “He’s going to choke come May.” At least you can somewhat control the latter but injuries are out of your control a lot of time. Sure you can change up parts of your workouts/prep and diet but I think a player’s genetic disposition, natural frame, mileage, etc play a significant part.

Feel bad for guys constantly breaking down and it’s out of their control

 

[NickFolarin]

Does Rose get 15M on an open market?

[moderndarwin]

Dubs will just sit him a lot. He’ll be ready come the WCF. We just need 12 good mins a game from him aka the non steph mins. The amount of negative impact Jordan poole had when he was out there was mind boggling.
