NBA Season - now 24/25

The Bulls are bringing fun back to Chicago, one 360 dunk at a time
This new-look team, behind DeMar DeRozan, Lonzo Ball, Zach LaVine and Alex Caruso, takes its highlight show to Golden State Friday (10 p.m. ET, ESPN).
Happy for Ball that he is coming into his own. Pretty tough to get drafted with all the expectations placed on him
-
Steph Curry is quite good at the Basketballs
-
@mariner4life just another nine 3s. 40 points on 27 shots is crazy.
His fitness and stamina is as good as it’s ever been.

I would probably shudder to be reminded of the players LA passed on that year in the draft.... A quick scan tells me Tatum, Donovan Mitchell, Adebayo were all in his class. In general it was not an exceptional class
There’s probably been only 3 or 4 exceptional classes in the last 35 years.
2017 hasn’t been too bad. My top 5 players from that have been picks 3 (Tatum), 5 (Fox), 13 (Mitchell), 14 (Adebayo) and 19 (John Collins).
Next best Ball (2), Kuzma (27), Jarrett Allen (22), Malik Monk (11)

It fucking kicked off in Detroit!!
LeBron with a filthy elbow splits Isaiah Stewart's head right the fuck open. Carnage ensues. Stewart wants every part of LBJ
LBJ got himself ejected for it. And it looks like the Lakers will still win because the pistons suck

And the Warriors go 22-45 from downtown with Curry contributing just 1 make.
And Klay isn't even back yet 😬😬😬
Their balance is quite something

@mariner4life what Lebron did was reactive and easily dealt with on a flagrant 2 and automatic ejection. I will say Stewart was bringing the niggle throughout the game. In the very possession before that FT incident, he absolutely hacked DeAndre Jordan and there was no call. There was some niggle with Melo earlier too.
He’s had some run ins ol’ Stewart. Lebron might get something extra given the impact of the backhand.
Russ and AD actually played well in the 4th and Melo who has been a gun this season continued to hit big shots.

Did he though? Looked like the whole "wait 'till my mates are between us then pretend they need to hold me back"

I’m on Patty Mills watch and he had another very good game. Top scored for the Nets today in the win against the Celtics (in Boston). He hit 7 3s and some of those in 3s he hit where he pulls the trigger so quick, were sweet.
He continues to play really well with KD and with Joe Harris out, I like Mills starting.

Anyway, the Suns have won 13 in a row.
That was a good game today. Rubio missing two clutch FTs near the end didn’t help the Cavs. I quite like how the Cavs are playing this season.
During this stretch of wins, have been impressed with how Monty Williams has been using McGee. He’s been very good. Probably Booker’s best game this season.
-
@act-crusader Yeah the rotation in general has been really good thanks to decent bench depth. So many of our box scores feature 5 or more guys scoring 15+ points, kind of thing.

Suns have a good lead 48 - 29 at the moment. Durant back in and trying to influence things. Great slam just then PHX
Nets with a sloppy start and then expended a lot of energy getting back into it, then faded. Suns on an excellent run.
-
@act-crusader Good summation. Nets had KD, Harden, Aldridge and Millsap so some quality cattle and the Suns had come off a game the night before against NY. Great win. You could see there was some feeling.
Now the Suns play Golden State in a big match-up of the two best records in the league. The Nets are the best in the East but 3.5 games behind these two.
