LeBron with 12 assists tonight making some of the best passes I've seen so far this season. Putting on a true masterclass of passing at the age of nearly 41 (12/30 bday).

**** a Magic, **** a Jokic, he's the GOAT Passer.

Oh and he could EASILY play until he's 45 and still be a top 50 NBA Player.


Peacock being what? 30 seconds behind the real-time action? Pathetic product.
What Big Peacock? You wanna fight about it?


lebron will end up being the gordie howe of basketball.

Haha.

I actually enjoy their interface. Definitely feels like a video game but something about it is pleasing to the eye.

I think since the Pacers have never had the #1 pick before and reparations for the frozen envelope in 1985, that Silver should award them the top selection.

The Pacers have never had the #1 pick, nor has any player picked #1 ever played for the team. Come on Silver you vampiric bastard, you owe us!


Ok, apparently there's a French Haliburton clone playing at Ole Miss but he was actually draft eligible last year, so any NBA team could sign him now if they wanted.

Pacers need to sign Hal Le Burton immediately and see if they can re-capture the magic.


I wouldn't sign him if I was the Pacers, would **** up the Tankin'

Mavs need a point guard, but they should be a Tankin' too.

30 seconds is actually pretty good for streaming

even network tv will be delayed by around that amount of time - streaming can sometimes be up to 1-2 full minutes behind

super annoying as i'm usually live betting stuff so everything is spoiled - ie watching a football game, odds suddenly swing dramatically to other team without ball - so it's safe to assume a pick6 or fumble happened and i need to watch 2-3 plays before it goes down

same with hockey and soccer - nothing worse than knowing a goal is going to be scored in the next 2 minutes

How for real are The Pistons?


Pistons are legit and east is super volatile this year. They could make a run in the playoffs like the Pacers last year with a few random breaks.


I wonder if Tatum will comeback this year.

I concur. Def could be Finals bound. Might also trade for Lauri.

Last I heard it’s what he intended to do, but man don’t risk the biscuit. Your team aint doing **** with you at 75-80%. Think longterm.


Good Lord, is that Owen Wilson in the pizza commercial and if so wha happen?

And Durant 6’11” still lolz


the C's sold off the year, I get it, new ownership, got to save money because a guy can do a lot more with $15 billion than he can with just 14.5 billion. idk tbh is that it, just money? or was it the "smart" move. I get Red Sox vibes (a mid-market team yet charging the most to fans and team worth like top 3 in the MLB).

You had a team that cruised to the championship. Porzingus, Jrue...those guys still have game. Injuries, oh got to protect Tatum. Why? he's rich enough. What about my ring? He probably won't get hurt. I don't get it. Why close your window.

They still are just one dude, like one superstar, away this year. They are a .500 team right now. Tatum coming back from a 9-12 month injury, that is Mar 1. He'll be fine by May. Add say...roll the dice with AD.

You don't win damn near 1 outta 4 rangz for damn near a century by playing it safe. You win it by playing in an 8 team league...err I mean you win it by taking risks!


Weird scheduling that the Lakers had 2 days off before playing the Jazz, then have 4 days off before playing then again?

Jazz is dawgs, man.


Lauri on the Spurs would be great, but so would Lauri on the Pistons.

2028 top 3 protected
2030 top 3 protected
Ron Holland
Jaden Ivey
Tobias Harris

for

Lauri

get it done Pistons!

Pistons are real, but OKC at +175 still seems better than the Pistons at +2500 or whatever. OKC certainly looks to be on the level of the 2015-2016 Warriors. With good health, it's tough to see them losing a seven game series.


Raptors 10-5.


I think the bigger question is, who is more legit: Chicago or DET?

I think I'm taking CHI, but to be honest, I don't have crazy faith in either. I'd bet on PHI and MIL over those two teams in a playoff matchup (I think Vegas would, too), even though that may not seem like such a hot take.

And leave it to the Hornets to lose to the ****ing Pacers.

But, Kon ...
ROY, baby.
So damn good.


I saw the C's play in Boston last year. Over $800 I think for 4 tickets. I wanted good tickets. Both J's didn't play! Still had fun. Probably never gonna do it again. I think live sporting events for the common dude might one day be a thing of the past. Not now, you can still see a ballgame, like the Padres or w/e.

Also saw Beijing play soccer when I was there. My wife's brother played for the team back like 30 years ago and gets us free tickets when we go. He is kinda famous, walking with him people know him. He's on TV doing analysis. Anyways, they lost in a huge upset this most recent time to the Tsingtao team of beer fame. Facing relegation...it was a very heroic comeback effort. Seriously, they won me over. Have a Tsingtao for the boys!

oh this just in....There’s a 79% chance that Jayson Tatum will play a game this season ��

Return incoming?

diamond sharp wisdom gracing this thread.

Trading for AD is so high risk.

AD is a negative value asset, I said it.

I also don’t think he even gives a flying **** about basketball anymore.
