The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA announces new media deal

[pmatic]

Maybe I am underrating Love's tenure in Cleveland, but it doesn't seem worthy enough to retire his jersey. But I guess that's what a chip does.

This has got to be an inside joke or something

As I've always said...the People's Champ

What's Kilganon's vert? In the 40s somewhere?

Supposedly 49-50 inch

 

[Public Enemy]

He seems to forget he has to play defense too

6MOTY Malcolm Brogdon should be in there over JT. He’s leading the league in 3P%.

NBA should make the dunk contest like the Royal Rumble. Have 4 additional "surprise" entrants that get announced just before their 1st attempt.

And 1 of those surprise entrants should be Ant.

 

[amitt5504]

As much as I dislike Niang, he should be there

 

[storm2006]

Interesting.

 

[651akathepaul]

Interesting.

One of the reasons why he deserved to be in the ASG to begin with. Jim Petersen been beating on that drum for a while. 25% of these guys selected only play 65-70% of games. Ant ALWAYS plays.

I'm ballparking the figures, so chill...y'all know what I mean.

agree. Zion, Jaren Jackson, PG13 didnt play enough to be selected IMO. theres probably others, those are just the ones i know off the top of my head that missed a lot of games

Interesting.

He could never be part of the Spurs organization with this crappy attitude.

Ant publicly calling out nba players in the media?

 

[IATT]

LeBron had to win multiple MVPs, break the all time scoring record, and win 4 rings before being considered by a lot to be the goat.

Probably a strong overlap between those who would suggest lebron is the GOAT and those who would say THAT dumb sh

It just feels like a weird fit assets-wise on both sides, honestly.

If I’m the Lakers, I probably don’t want to flip for Kyrie straight up.

But it also feels like the Mavs probably aren’t looking to dump more assets into a deal to facilitate Kyrie landing in LA - even if it means getting AD back given his availability is as big (bigger? Albeit less volatile) an issue than Kyrie’s. Nevermind AD’s apparent decline in play which is the only reason LA might even entertain this to begin with.

Feels like the Mavs would be better served taking the spare parts and picks than dumping more into the investment for AD.


No, but he’s not the first guy that’s floated it. He’s just the first guy that’s called out AD by name.

The whole point of LA wanting KY is pairing him with Bron and Davis. The minute it becomes a conversation about trading one of them for Ky, the talk dies imo.

Only way it happens is if Bron and Davis are sick of one another but I don't really see it (rn)

They seriously should just drop the dunk contest. They struggle just to get competitors now.

Understated, but LeBron bluffing on the dunk also contest led to its demise.

When the dunk contest became soley for “lesser” players, up and coming stars…instead of established ones…and the cool/established NBA players watched from the sides, or stop attending is another component of the downfall of the dunk contest.

 

[lynchpin33]

Draymond needs to be up there with the stars of Creed, instead of with Reggie and Kevin after the way he punched Poole.
