nba off season 2024 bud 2 suns etc

beal wrote that in the cms

Absolutely haha. Whole team got the memo were blaming Vogel and gonna give this another shot with a new coach next year and it will all be different we promise

Denver should draft Bron Jr just for giggles

lebron, welcome to the offs eason

lebron leaving la and letting the lakers empire crumble, lets gooooooo

There’s gonna be a lot of big moves this offseason I think

New Orleans Pelicans, welcome to the offs eason too. Sorry that you have to play Farrah Fawcett to the famous Lakers of Los Angeles

what can lebron really do it's quite the conundrum

there is not an obvious pick here, he could always say fuck it round 3 in cleveland and thatd be fun. knicks would be fun but i think thibs would murder him with 40 mpg. gs might lure him to their retirement home with the promise of free tech stocks. or maybe he really will go to whomever drafts bronny and suffer in utah or something, i mean d wade kinda owns part of the team.

but the real answer is spurs, he'd be great with wemby

confirmed

He needs Trae by his side in LA

Maybe consider Milwaukee

Would he make sense in Philly? I think he would, but doubt that's the kind of market or team he is looking for.

it would be cool for him to play for a year on whatever team drafts his son, unfortunately I just don't think Bronny is good enough. he could be the next Thanasis I guess

he was considered a legit nba prospect before the heart attack theres a chance he could get back there but proving it in college would be good

it seems like even putting that aside, draft media got way over their skis on bronny. he’s like an avery bradley type but even worse at offense

i mean its a nice story for them, getting drafted off yr name then face planting in the nba wouldnt be as pleasant

I wonder if someone will be willing to burn a second rounder if it's a package deal with LeBron

i think someone for sure would, does bron want to do it idk seems like a weird sitch

like is bron willing to make the midlevel instead of $50m seems like probably not, in that case youre looking at a trade to get him somewhere else which isnt that easy, would the lakers take bronny in the second round to make bron happy, it does seem like a lakers type thing to do, except that they havent really been on board with gm lebron so idk, him staying in la and not playing with bronny seems like the most likely outcome, but also bron obvs has not been afraid of big moves in the past so maybe hell do it again

maybe the sixers will draft bronny and sign bron the ultimate morey caper

it's an interesting situation because despite being really old for an NBA player his numbers haven't really dropped off nor has he gotten hurt, feel like he could be really good in a 3rd banana role where he plays 25-30 MPG for another 3 years

its crazy how good he still is dont think anyone has retired while being this good before no idea how long it will before hes retirement quality

jordan doesnt count since he came back

Including playoffs and regular season…

LeBron in Year 2: averaged 27, 7 and 7
LeBron in Year 10: averaged 27, 8 and 7
LeBron in Year 16: averaged 27, 8 and 8
LeBron in Year 21: averaged 26, 7 and 8

It’s just absurd.

it's pretty wild that he's still figured out a way to get those numbers since his athleticism *has* dropped off, starting around the time he joined the Lakers. though to be fair during his peak years he was doing shit I didn't even know human beings were capable of.

he got that three point shot figured out this year, if thats sustained that will keep him going even longer

oh wow lol

Ham knows that a 1st round exit puts him at the top of the list of expendables.

"Coach, we need a timeout."

I agree with the Inside guys’ take that they should change the rule that if the second challenge is successful, you should retain the timeout even if you can no longer challenge. However, even if that WERE the rule it was a dumb challenge bc it was far from clear that it would be successful and losing the timeout could be disastrous as it indeed turned out to be. And with the rule what it actually is, it was an inarguably bad decision

i have a proposal: if okc does not win the title this year, they should trade for kevin durant

this is not an honorable concept

we can’t really still be doing this with KD guys come on

it would fucking rule

let’s not encourage this behavior

they have so many picks, they could make it work

send him and westbrook and harden all back there as a bench unit

ciderpress 4 commish imo.

i have basketball reasons

the kid anthony edwards

People often want OKC to push all their chips in on a big star. But they already have three potential max-level players with SGA, Jalen Williams, and Chet. Adding another star doesn't seem helpful.

Feels like they can just keep adding supporting players via the draft and trades.

The Hayward trade was mostly to free up salary to allow them to keep their players who need extending this summer - Josh Giddey, Aaron Wiggins, and Isaiah Joe.

we'll see how the playoffs play out but i agree with you. better off getting depth to be more flexible with their lineups and play style.

Even if they crash and burn in the semis, the season's been a success for the Thunder. But it might feel like a waste of a season where the chips are falling - they're going to be playing the second round with a week's rest advantage against a team with injury concerns to their star.

They also have Ousmane Dieng waiting in the wings. He's still raw but might have the potential to add some options to the bench as a stretch 5 and scorer.

You can always count on them to trade for a huge contract (that is expiring soon and comes with free picks).

RIP heat

its tough without your guys

harden missed two of those floaters so far good looks tho

oops
