NBA Season - now 24/25

I for one hopes Steph Curry bosses this season. The shit that gets thrown his way by insecure LeBron stans like @voodoo is fucking ridiculous.

Oh bite me, when did I disparage Curry's game???
I LOVED Curry (and GSW) until he/they recruited KD, and I'm all-in again now.
That said, he's still a shit defender...😬
-
He can't defeeeeend
He's nothing without 2 other allll starrrrssss
This season will define his careeeeer
He's nothing more than a system player.
Curry changed the game, LeBron stans fucking hate that for some reason
-
The move Curry did on Pat Beverley today up the top of the key was niiiiice.
And a shout out to Ducks alumni and Celts rookie Payton Pritchard for hitting the game winner against the Heat today. He was such a heady college player but many thought he wouldn’t get drafted.

haven't seen much of this season. Moved house a week before Xmas and still waiting for the internet to be set up.
What I have seen is Trae Young is a great player. Wiggins is a bust for sure now. Curry is still the player that changed the game and people need to throw some respeck on his name - that is not a typo... The Pelicans are a fun team to watch but too young, probably. Zion is not a bust but might not be the next player to lead the game into the next phase. LaMelo Ball is NBA ready. I think he will be the rookie of the year. For once Westbrook is not the problem at his team. The Knicks haven't figured shit out and people need to just wait for them to implode instead of thinking they've turned some type of corner. Fultz is a very good player and Im happy he's found his feet.
Shocking jinx by you @raznomore
Did his ACL today. Out for the season.

@ACT-Crusader Pritchard had 23 points vs the Raptors earlier this week. Early signs suggest he's going to be a better pro than many thought.
-
Playoff feel to the Nuggets and Mavs game today. Big plays down the stretch and the two stars making plays
-
@ACT-Crusader pretty happy with that result. I picked the mavs as a slight under dog and they came through and kept my multi alive.

The regular season results are all over the place so far. Who expected the Spurs to beat the Lakers away? And a KD and Kyrie-less Nets beat the 76ers.
I reckon it’s going to be all over the place for the whole season with more guys getting Covid and having to sit out games and then the protocols around testing etc.

Watching the Pelicans now and one thing I noticed is Adams is looking more athletic this year compared to the last couple.

Might have something to do with the way they use him too. No more standing around watching Russ run about

That was Steph-effortless....

LaMelo Ball gets his first career triple-double(22/12/11). He was also one assist away from a triple-double in his last game.
Seems like he will be a better player than his brother. In their head to head Lonzo was inneffectual. But I haven't seen him on a regular basis so maybe I'm talking out of my ass

Youngest in NBA history to get a TD too. His best shooting game as well.
His influence on both games was pretty big. I think one thing that really helps LaMelo’s game is that both starting guards are shooting/scoring types and allows Ball to run the plays. Add on a dependable Hayward and an improving PJ Washington and they will be competitive in most games.

@ACT-Crusader I'm rooting for him because it makes the NBL a viable path and we may see more talent come this way.

Agree.
It will be interesting to see what happens with Jalen Green next year after his alternate pathway from High School to D League to Draft.
-
@mariner4life it'll end up being a secondary pathway IMO. the NCAA is going to let players make money sometime in the next year. Once the colleges figure out how they can exploit this then we are only really going to see G-League players in the NBL. We might end up as a Last Chance U for wayward superstars but I think just because of the corrupt bastards timing, of changing their stance on player payments, it's highly unlikely we will get blue chips again.

I just finished watching the Warriors v Raptors game, Curry hit his first shot and then didn’t hit another until there was less to an 3 minutes to go in the game.
Had plenty of good looks but just couldn’t hit.
Raptors are in a massive funk right now, but nonetheless a decent win for a Warriors team trying to get any sort of win!
