2024/2025 NBA Season Thread

[Suckio Andretti]

Just to prove myself right, go ahead and make a trade talk thread AP

 

[Suckio Andretti]

Ok.

How’s Jonathan mogbo doing now? I know he started off the season really well

 

[AP3.0]

No come on man how can I improve I already don’t talk about the pelicans or raptors so what should I do?

“Willie green has done a great job with these rotations”

Like what does it look like?

You can just not say anything if it doesn't interest you in even the slightest

You’re not making me feel comfortable I’m trying man

I thought my post was pretty explanatory

If your not interested in a particular team, their roster, their roster construction/cap... Then it's ok to just not say anything at all.

I don't expect anyone in here to watch all 30 teams regularly so I also don't expect y'all to be super knowledgeable as well

I don't comment on Portland cause idgaf about them in any shape fashion or form

I see the disconnect

Even if the comment is negative it comes from a place of interest

That’s what you’re missing

You don’t comment on Portland because you don’t care

I could comment on Portland because the shitty way that team is constructed and the players on that team is interesting to me for multiple reasons

It’s foreign to you because you aren’t a fan of the NBA the way I am and thats honestly fine

Basically what works for you doesn’t work for me and vice versa

wait I’m not finished I’ll give you an example


I hate Trae Young right?

Yet I watched that hawks/Pistons game

Why?

Entertainment because I enjoy basketball on a level a lot dont
Pistons playing well
Seeing what Ausar does
Having an interest in Ron Holland for 2 years
Jalen Johnson
Even matchup in the standings
Appreciating how solid Vit Krecj has been

I then learned IIRC Deandre Hunter leads the league in bench scoring

I also learned that they are really investing in Onyeka Okongwu

Also that Risacher was injured

Now would you have watched that game?

 

[Suckio Andretti]

Niggas trying to push a “if you don’t have anything nice to say, then you shouldn’t say it” regarding sports conversation

And to me that’s wild

I'ma keep it a buck

I don't think you "hate" Trae Young. I don't think you like his play style which is ok, but I don't think you hate him cause if you did, I can't see you going out of your way to talk about him to the lengths you do

Your other points are solid but I think it's clear you watch the league through a different lens that I do and that's also ok

Nah I hate that nigga

Real quick to combat my last post since that was a shot at you, why were you offended when I said Trey Murphy was the pelicans’ best player?

Is that not praise?

Trey Murphy being the best player is captain obvious stuff

Everything else you comment on is just fodder and doesn't make me engage. Not that I just want to talk about positives cause there aren't a lot tbh but u keep picking low hanging fruit which I just tune out on

How is it captain obvious stuff if I don’t watch the pelicans as much as you do?

Why would that comment still offend you?

I’m watching him develop as a player and then said he’s now their best player

How do you take something negative from that?

I'm saying, I've seen you really deep dive on teams which I actually appreciate

You saying Murphy is the best player on the team is something I can get from those lazy niggas at ESPN

Nobody on ESPN would say that you fuck stop being disingenuous lol

I can’t deep dive on a team so uninteresting that I don’t watch though

I was just praising the only player I like on that team and somehow it’s bad lol

Can’t win
