NBA 2024-25

What on earth was JB doing for 2 years? I’ve never felt so vindicated in my hatred for his coaching!

Jokic goes for 37-18-15

12-0.  Not too shabby. 

Saw last week that Popovich was on leave from the Spurs. According to Twitter, that's because he suffered a mild stroke. That sucks.

Shams said on First Take he guesses Lebron has one or two more years left, but could also depends on what happens with Bryce, his younger son. 

I say why stop there? His daughter looks to be about ten. Maybe in eight years they could be first father - daughter NBA duo. He could be first 50 year old to play in the NBA.

Lol, Bronny's basically turned into the weirdest "just to make pops happy" hire ever now that he's been assigned to the D-league...but only playing in home games because he's NOT flying commercial to do stupid shit like actually develop as a basketball player by playing in a full season worth of games.

So, I'm in favor of LeBron remaining a high-level player for forever, just to see how far a team will bend over backwards to make him happy. I'm also guessing Bronny wants him to be a high-level player forever, too, since the minute the Lakers don't need to make daddy happy, his career is over unless some low-level team takes a flier on him to see if that will at least give them an attendance/ratings bump.

I don’t think LeBron’s kids need to play basketball. Dad can always pay for dinner, or $30 million mansion or whatever. LeBron’s dad wasn’t around….King James’s kids are beyond set

There was a video out there that was cracking me up. It was JJ Reddick in a press conference and they must have dubbed over his voice where Reddick was saying "yeah, Bronny sucks...bout freakin' time we sent him to the G League" and other stuff like that. You'd have to hear it but very funny.

15-0; tied 2nd best start in NBA history.  Tomorrow night vs. Celtics; that would be a big win; .........you know the Celts want to be the team that ends the streak. 

I need them to lose (but not to the Celtics). I am way to invested in November NBA Basketball at the moment. 

Garland 1-14

 3 for 21 ................. only reason they lost. 

Knecht is #4. The Lakers announcers called him Knecht-4. It’s now one of my favorite nicknames and I cannot believe I didn’t realize it or hear it prior to this. 

This start to the season for the 76ers is something else. Brutal.
