NBA Season - now 24/25

Steph Curry is a human cheat code when it comes to shooting the 3

Marks makes another move.
Six-time All-Star forward Blake Griffin has agreed to a deal to join the Brooklyn Nets for the rest of the season, his agent, Sam Goldfeder of Excel Sports, told ESPN on Sunday night. The Nets are using one of their veteran-minimum-contract slots to sign Griffin, sources said. Griffin informed Nets general manager Sean Marks of his decision to join Brooklyn's championship chase on Sunday evening, a reunion of sorts with his former Los Angeles Clippers teammate DeAndre Jordan.

Win or lose, Marks has had a GM of the year type season

Mike Conley is one of my favourite players but even I was cheering for the Chef in that one.
I’m not a betting man but I told a mate to put money on a Sabonis / Curry double and he turned his $50 into $$$$$$$....
@voodoo it wasn’t as fun as last year, but Greek Freak not missing a basket was still something to watch.

The ASG is stuuuuuuuupid
USA vs Rest of World would be so much better.
Can't see it ever happening too many bonuses from teams and sponsors for becoming an all star that the potential best would miss out in this case.

The “potential best” miss out every year though.
If you look at this years selections on the international team you would have had:
Embiid
Simmons
Antetokounmpo
Jokic
Doncic
Vucevic
Gobert
SabonisAnd although he’s represented USA, give Kyrie an International jersey. So that makes 9.
The other three spots I’d add, Jamal Murray, Pascal Siakam and Dragic.
They’d go up against a starting lineup of Lebron, Curry, Leonard, Durant, A. Davis
Bench : Beal, Harden, Lillard, George, Zion, Booker, Tatum

@act-crusader I did a quick count too of the ASG rosters before my earlier post. With the increased international talent in the NBA nowadays you could have two evenly matched teams.

I didn't watch, but outside of the 3x 3's, were they all dunks???

Sounds more like Dr J than Giannis!

I just saw a report that LaMarcus Aldridge is leaving the Spurs. Sounds like pretty much immediately.
He's been really good for San Antonio, and i hope he goes somewhere with a shot at a ring.

lets hope not, because that means a buy-out and another guy leaving the Spurs for not much

Yeah I'm all for it but just cant see players agreeing to potentially miss out on adding another 'all star' selection to their legacy for a lower ranked international....and I know its a popularity comp and All NBA matters more....but also their egos....
and also Merica' we are the greatest in the world and if we had an international team vs us we might lose
