The Official Off-Season NBA Thread

[Nike Jordan]

Not even Jordan wants to be in Cleveland.

 

[Moheezy]

Even if the team that drafts Bronny is a team Lebron doesn’t want to go to, that team could get a king’s ransom for Bronny in a trade where Bronny goes to the team that Lebron’s on in a post-draft trade…

Also saw that if the NBA or NBAPA opts out of the current CBA agreement in December, and the next agreement gets rid of the “can’t come out of HS to the NBA” rule, then Bronny could be eligible for the 2023 draft instead of the 2024 draft. We already know Silver’s not against it.

I wouldn't be surprised if any of these scenarios play out.

Not sure if these were posted here before but damn

That Juwan Howard clip wild lmaooo

Eh but overall All star weekend wasn’t that great this weekend went to a few events but most got canceled as well not a ton of people either.

This is Classic Bron, though. Talking about all these extracurricular stuff like playing Bronny, dropping allusions about return to Cleveland, etc to take away from the fact that his team…

Is 4 games under .500
In 9th place
Is only 2.5 games up on the 10th seed
Is only 4.5 games up on the 11/12 seed
Will be without its second best player for at least four weeks
Has the third toughest remaining SOS.

Those are ASW soundbites from a man who wants to talk about everything but his team missing the PLAY-IN this season

I need to read this over the ether beat, brb

They gotta type these with as few words as possible. My eyes shoot to buzzwords and I thought mama Wanda passed. Almost fell out.

I'm sad for granny too.

Thanks was waiting for this.

 

[T0INE]

Yikes

Damn.

Ain't he mad Michigan in the Final Four last year?

The falloff arrived expeditiously.

 

[T0INE]

Hmm

See it's stuff like this that give Bron detractors ammo. For some inexplicable reason, Lebby and AD took it upon themselves to bring in Westbrook this year a bad fit that pretty much everyone, including Stevie Wonder could've foreseen was gonna go how it's been going this season with the exception of those two.

No that things have gone all the way left Lebby trying to pin it on all Pelinka who at the bare minimum wouldn't have gone through with the trade without Lebby and AD's blessing when it actuality it was orchestrated by those two basically tying Pelinka's hand.

Can't rock with Lebby trying to make Vogel and now Pelinka the scapegoat for the mess he created

Wherever LeBron goes I'll be there. I should've done the same when D'angelo left

 

[dman14]

warriors need to make a move on alex and thanasis

 

[lawdog1]

Curious to see if Lebby/Klutch/Lakers bothering denying any of what’s reported in that Pincus story, particularly the part about pushing hard for a Russ-for-Wall trade. Maybe they don’t even bother because it seems pretty clear Russ is already miserable there.

[servechilled81]

it's incredible that 1 man has been the most relevant name in basketball for the last 20 years, good/bad, winning/losing. Others have had their time in the sunshine but it still all leads back to him
i'm huge fan of Lebron but also mi tyaad

Yikes. Curious to see how the Suns can do without him.

 

[elpablo21]

Got damn 6-8 weeks

 

[nick.]

[HIM]

Got damn 6-8 weeks

That’s just to get re-evaluated. Might be done for the season/postseason.

Lavine's voice doesn't match his face.

The championship looks like it’s gonna come out of the East.
