National Basketball Association - 2023/24 Season

Two kids make the nba, yet two out of three have seriously tainted names now. Wonder if parents are alive.

Yeah tying it to revenue runs the chance players get significant pay cuts. WNBA just isn’t on stable enough revenue ground to do this. Obviously you could put guardrails on it to prevent this but then what is the point. Just negotiate fair salary parameters.

Let’s NBA. These playoffs matchups look outstanding.

Embiid done again, it seems.

Or not.

lol what in the world were the Sixers doing

Mavs vs clippers. I am ready. Should be a great series but despite the clippers saying otherwise it seems Kawhi might not be ready to go, at least for game one.

I am psyched up.

76ers blew their game in the second quarter even though they came back. I am pulling for Knicks in that series. Lebron and AD dumped it all out vs Denver but they are just not deep enough to compete with the nuggets. Was glad the suns lost too, lol.

Tyler Herro is just not that guy to consistently rely on to score points in the playoffs.

Would not be surprised if he misses the entire first round.

Mavs added two real centers to battle the likes of zubac and he comes out cooking them.

Now harden cooking mavs. This is not fun :joy:

Worst offensive half of basketball I have seen.

56-30 on a free throw missed 12 fgs in a row to finish the half, eight points in the second quarter.

doesn’t look shady to me at all. He’s going down the lane for an offensive rebound and gets bumped and they collide side by side.

“Indiana and Dame tied at 29”

Crazy that Dame went for 35 in the first half and zero in the second.

He broke the record for most points in the first half in a playoff game AND tied the record for least points ever by a single player in the second half.

Lakers should have tanked confirmed, their chances of beating SAC + OKC were >>> the chances of beating DEN (which are essentially zero), and then you just have to pray that MINN takes out DEN in rd 2, that was their only path to the finals.

of course this is assuming that finals equity is the only variable in the equation, in practicality there are other considerations such as hurting the brand name which would prevent a team from ever doing this in reality.

Tuning in to watch the Cavs/Magic game and…no I’m not because it’s only on NBA TV, which I have, but the game is blocked in my area. The playoffs! WTF…
