2024/2025 NBA Season Thread

I'm happy for him, but this is kinda odd and a little similar to what caused the problems in the 1st place. Malone was hired by Connely, who left for a bigger pay day. They promoted Calvin Booth from assistant and he was given a cost cutting mandate by ownership and he had a different idea of how to run the team from Malone. Those 2 never got on the same page and Malone publicly questioned his techniques

Unless it's the assistant GM or someone already in the organization, wouldn't they think the person would want to hire a coach who shares a similar vision? he did a solid job taking over and Jokic seemed cool with him, so I get it

He’s a bum ugh

 

[Sky Davis]

OG I should undelete that post lol

 

[Gray Matter]

His problem is that he's not good offensively.

A one-way player, though he's not as bad as Peyton Watson.

Lmao. It was the wrong link.

This the shit I be talking bout. Why even waste your time working on this? Work on free throws and right and left hand layups. Those will be the only offensive basketball moves you will make during a game.

Very good role player.

Why did you list Bam and not Jimmy? Bcuz we all see what happens when Jimmy is not around.

Bcuz Bam sticks out like a bad toe in a sandal on that list. lol

I'm convinced there's no way the Spurs should trade the number 2 pick under any circumstances unless they able to move up to 1 which isn't realistic

As long as Wemby is healthy you will never draft this high again and you want someone who is cheap, also on the same timeline and has all star potential

The prime example of not what to do is what the Pelicans did with Anthony Davis....and to an extent what the Wolves did with Edward's imo which me and @Al G. Rhythm were just talking about in the playoffs thread

You make it hard to build your team around your superstar player when they're really hitting their stride and getting into their prime because you were geeked of the flashes and pushed your chips in too soon

I know it's a hard line to balance sometimes and people think concept of players on the same timeline is overrated but I disagree with that

The former MVP drafted in 2014 sticks out more than anything to me
