I can't stop laughing at the guy with the James Bond villain name chasing the small boy.

damn y’all brought it with the pics this year! well done

as far as opening night goes, we have this to look forward to

LeBron and Bronny James will share the court at some point during the season opener. They're going to get their photo op together, they'll get another with Ken Griffey Jr. and Sr., who will be there, they'll talk about it postgame and then we'll (maybe) move on with the season.

also

With 6 missed FG tonight, LeBron James would pass Kobe Bryant for the most in NBA history 🤯

It's hard not to think about bronny almost dying from playing hoops, but he still plays on. Under the circumstances, the Laker publicity campaign around LeBron's dream of playing with bronny in the NBA takes on a weird ghoulish aspect. The whole situation feels very wtf.

Please tell me the pic of Bron blocking Bronny is real.

it is lol

“You’re allowed to talk shit about his dead brother with no checking or pushback because he’s made a lot of money” is straight up sociopathic; we’re talking about a basketball player, not a head of state

the article was for sure rancid shit

and i personally dont have any problem with him letting the reporter know how he feels, the situation getting physical is professionally problematic, tho it turns out to have been very slight physicality, and he did threaten the reporter too, hell prob get suspended for a game or two be made to apologize and everyone will move on

not at all what I said!

It looks like Paul George is possibly playing for the Sixers on Monday. They need him badly.

ya maxey seems a lil overextended

aw damn hope pop is ok

oh man

the lack of info here is a bit worrying

:(

damn pop get well

Noooo goddamn. How it wasn't something serious like a stroke

How -> hope

the bucks are in last place huh

has dame fired his agent who told him he knew how dame could force his way onto the Heat, who then made a bunch of public comments about how dame wouldn't show up to play for any other team and then got fined for it?

tbf those were prob all dames ideas

i wonder if the blazers could do the trade over whether they would too. not to keep dame but the stuff they got from boston turned out to be junk... brogdon and one of those firsts got flipped for deni avdija. those future bucks pics are looking juicy but i wonder if there was a different offer out there that was better, at least in terms of where they flipped jrue. i think they severely miscalculated the value of brogdon and robert williams

yeah neither of them can stay healthy at all, if they could boston mightve already won a ring before the jrue trade

+ scoot being mostly a dud, sharpe’s future is really murky, their other top young guy is being blocked by a glorified twitch streamer … woof

turns out having an owner who doesnt give a shit might be bad

Wonder who Doc Rivers throws under the bus next

doc throwing ham (under the bus)

speaking of...does doc make it to the end of the season all-star break end of 2024 end of the week?

Isn't he owed a ton of money? I'll be shocked if he's fired before mid next year

Bucks might still be paying Bud, to say nothing of the guy they signed for 5 years in 2023 lmao

Exactly... At some point you gotta draw a line there. I just don't see it happening.

this franchise does not do "cutting their losses" its how they traded the farm for jrue then jrue for dame

i'm sure the money is a factor but i think the main reason why they won't be firing doc is because they hailed him as the savior and won't be able to hire a bigger/better name, so the messaging to the fanbase would be nonsensical

Jimmy Butler singlehandedly ruined this franchise and I hate him for it

might not fire him because theyre cooked so whats the difference

on the hoops collective pod today windy was making the point that this bucks nucleus is basically on year 7 of championship contention and keeping the window open that long is extremely difficult to impossible

the problem w/ the idea of it being inevitable, even if it was, is that they mortgaged the future to try and deny that inevitability

Cavs/Bucks 4th quarter is great

jaime jaquez jr is out tonight w/ gastroenteritis in the heat's first game back from mexico city

montezuma got em

super win by the Cavs

cavs undefeated this is wild

God damnit

cheer up at least you will have a chance at cooper flagg to lead into the next generation

*checks tankathon*

so it turns out new orleans gets your pick that sucks

lol oh no

pistons staying ahead of the lakers down the stretch

jj needs to draw up more plays

the chronicles of redick does not contain all the hoop plays? wow what was that duke education for

feeling good about my cavs regular season predix

that being said I did pick indy 3rd and the bucks 4th

jokic just had the most casual poster on gradey dick

deandre jordan first quarter minutes. fire malone
