The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[storm2006]

Grizz are likeable except to Phoenix and Warrior fans and both of those teams are WAY more hateable.

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black

Folks only think GSW is unlike is because of their track record making it to 5 straight Finals, partially because of them doing that with KD and because they won another one when the band got back together but they were to supposed to be “aging out”. GSW is NOT in the same category as Memphis or Phoenix because over the course of 8 seasons they backed up the shimmying and any trash talk with 6 Finals appearances and 4 championships. Let’s just keep it real here.

Shiiiit

Those 5 years are Luka’s career BTW. Cuban is a fraud and lowkey broke

EYE see an up-and-to-the-right trend in spending that shows they stopped spending when Dirk's career was ending and Luka was in Year 1 and 2.

They spend stupid money all through Dirk's prime, so nah.

He hadn’t paid the luxury tax in 11 years until this year and let the 2nd best player walk because of it.

Stop giving this man credit for **** he did an over a decade ago today.

He just needs one of those Shark Tank investments to go 1000x. Thats the game you play with venture capital.

 

[Coupé It]

Cuban one of the worst Owners in the NBA.

But people like him because he’s famous and won 1 ring.

So he gets a pass.

 

[Moheezy]

Spending money ain’t ever been the problem.

It’s spending money in the right places that always gets a little goofy.

As crummy as we think the roster is, they’re probably too good to miss the playoffs barring a Luka injury.

Then why didn't they resign Brunson on a FAIR deal?

I know I was at the minority of the price of that deal, but that was market value. The media just milked it because it was New York.

 

[pmatic]

Jalen was never coming back with what New York had to offer.

The NBA hating on Boosie

Trae Young Comes To Boosie's Defense

Trae Young recently took to Twitter to speak on Boosie Badazz and how he is a net benefit when he attends Hawks games.

Maybe Wade made the call.

Mark Cuban is one of the few NBA team owners where owning the team is his primary venture. Its good for the sport to have a guy like that involved over the "I bought this in 1980 for a penny and I am a ghostly figure" people.

Steve Ballmer too. He has made the Clippers his primary thing. I appreciate it.

No doubt that some day soon the Scrub Daddy or a self-scooping cat litter box, etc. will kick him into Ballmer territory.

Based on how inflexible their cap seemed to be throughout the Porzingis years and the subsequent trade with the Wizards-- I would have thought Mavs would have one of the higher payrolls in the league

 

[picasso swerve]

LUKA GOT THAT DAWG IN HIM

Should have never even got to that point to begin with

Front office's foresight <<<

Worse than James Dolan (I’m a Knicks fan where’s my chip during my lifetime)?

Yeah it was bonehead to get rid of Brunson (to those same Knicks lol).

They were playing with his money.

Dolan the worst. Absolutely.

The Mavs were never going above 23 a year. Maybe he leaves anyways but there was a big per year difference in offers

Nah man he helped revolutionize the player experience. He spends money. Obviously mistakes get made. Definitely not even close to the worst. Not even bottom 10

I think with the money being so close (reportedly the Mavs offered four years-$106M) he chose the lead role, familial relationships in New York.

They didn’t they offered 110/5 or 90/4 and that 110/5 didn’t come until it was over honestly.

Yesterday 30/6/5/1.5 blks was considered losing a step and to today this is considered broke

Amazing.

Oh brother, within the context of NBA owners. Cuban deadass is one of the most cash poor owners.

He needs the profits from the team.

 

[N41D]

The Mark Cuban hate is so weird.

You wanna hate him as a PERSON - I got relatively few issues.

As an franchise GOVERNOR? The hate is stupid. Period.
