NBA Season - now 24/25

oh, and in a crushing blow for the Celtics, Robert Williams has torn his meniscus and is done for the year. Another young guy who was crushing it in Boston.

@mariner4life he may be back for playoffs depending on what surgery option they take

Brilliant.
'Just stand there' - Adams hilariously describes rebounding record
"You can go into the Dennis Rodman major science... I'm too stupid for that mate. Not enough brain cells for that one brother. I just stand there."

@gt12 lol
without being too cringy
could he be any more fucking kiwi? Gets a compliment, immediately finds something wrong. Down plays what he does, makes a joke about himself.
For a country that so very much likes to examine our standing in the world, individually we don't half battle to take praise. It's a very peculiar trait.

The Greek Freak is making a real tilt for the MVP. His form of late has been quite something.
Three horse race in my view - TGF, Joker and Embiid

Windhorst was on one of the shows today, and it was interesting as he talked about a survey of voters suggesting that the Joker has it sewn up.
Lots of pretty fantastic players around, so treckon this season is beat because there are young players stepping up, plus the established stars.
The only disappointment for me has been Zions absence. What are the thoughts on that? Would you stay?

They've long been considered the top three. Mounting comments in media and social media around Devin Booker's omission from the conversation. The general feeling is how can a guy averaging 26/5/5 on a team with 60+ wins, not be right up there? Surely Book's impact on the Suns results is equal to if not greater than that top 3? And there is a stat floating around about his numbers, the Sun's record and now many blokes in his position have won the MVP.

Having a phenomenal season but I think you answer your own question - because it’s only 26/5/5.
Book for me is in that next tier with DeRozan, Luka, Morant and Curry (despite the shooting woes etc was still getting 25/5/6).
It’s not always about the numbers but it sort of is.

@act-crusader Yeah totally, and the goal posts seem to shift re criteria, regularly. Steve Nash won one of his two averaging 16/11!

Grizzlies beat the Suns without Morant, Bane, Jackson Jr and Adams.
Great to see Brooks back and firing.
They are not going to be able to hold on to all these great young players. Teams will come knocking with the cheque book
-
Clippers torch the Bucks (they didn’t have their big 3). Covington on fire with 10 3s.

Nash: Simmons out of regular season, play-in
Still dealing with a herniated disk in his back, Ben Simmons has been ruled out of the regular season, according to Brooklyn Nets coach Steve Nash, who also said he would be "shocked" if Simmons appeared in the Nets' play-in game next week.
Clearly the Nets didn't trade for Simmons to help them immediately..... 🙄 🤷♂️
