wtf with his injuries

Also, he's out for weeks/months with basic injuries.  What this hammy means is he's out for the playoffs if they win tomorrow night.

    The new tv wall setup is starting to take place. That's 250" of NBA. Probably 1/4 of what Kendra Lust has had, if that

And he stays out even after he is cleared to play.

I like how he just casually checks himself out of the game after it happened. Happens so many times he’s just like “I’m done”

This game is horrible so far

Only highlight is JJ redick having to explain to Doris what foul baiting is

Butler just fucked up his R knee on an awkward landing.

Edit: he’ll continue for now, but it didn’t look good at first.

Embiid is just such a flopping bitch.  He's so hard to watch.  Softest 7 footer in the league, for sure.

I love watching Butler hoop in the playoffs. 

I know none of these play in games matter, but it would be fun to see a series between the Knicks and 76ers. 

Close game, but Philly pulls off the victory. I don't think they missed any free throws down the stretch, and they had a lot from take fouls. Philly/NYK should be a fun matchup given the hate and proximity of the cities.

The legend of Nicolas Batum single handily keeping sixers hopes alive.

That’s future Spur Nicolas Batum. 

Damn Sooner blew a bunny in the 4th and bricked a couple of 3s. Where is Jontay Porter when you need him?

Trae Young can throw a beautiful lob. He can also tank a team effort when they’re trying to come back. Shit defense, shit shooting (sometimes), shit teammate. 

10 games under .500 vs 4 games under .500 competing for the playoffs. lmao

Dude hasn't posted in here all year but just wants to pop in and bitch about the play in games, which were actually kind of entertaining. And which he is clearly watching. Lol

 

Also, Joel Embiid is a flopping bitch.

I think the Bucks v Pacers with a hobbled Giannis might be interesting. I'll be watching Cavs/Magic too, I think that will be a 6 game series that might be fun. The Magic were surprisingly OK this year and have a lot of room to grow. 

I would like to motion that we NOT create a separate playoffs thread and just keep this one going until the off season.

He’ll be 36 next year, but he’s a perfect veteran. Plus, he’s French. I’ve always wanted that guy in a Spurs uniform. Free agent too, might be inexpensive. They’re not going to go crazy in the offseason by all accounts. 

Donovan just sat and watched the Heat score 12 unanswered points to end 3rd qtr. What a joke. 😒

Heat lead by 22pts start of 4th...Game Over.

Heat plays Boston

 

Once he lost KD, Donovan's NBA record is about as  "meh" as it gets. 

image.thumb.png.637cc4f3e70242e4d1ab9c2a10beba9e.png

In his 4 years in Chicago, he has a sub .500 regular season record and 3 missed playoffs. Bulls pulled an aggy and gave him an extension after that magical run in '22. that shot of him sitting on the bench when Miami pushed the lead back to 20 pts looked he wanted to cry.

Chicago FO and ownership was/is horrible right now.  Reinsdorf is perfectly happy to continue to rake in the money from attendance and trot out a team that is 1st round fodder at best.  FO gambled big by trading for Lonzo and then giving happily handed out $200 million+ to LaVine in a desperate attempt to remain a borderline playoff team even after Lonzo couldn't stay healthy.

Donovan by no means deserves more chances, but the first ones to to should be the FO.

Chicago is without Lavine, Ball and Patrick Williams. I can’t blame any of that on Donovan. That’s a lot of talent they’re missing. 

Kings coach Mike Brown should be fired to not getting nearly enough out of a really talented team. They often look completely lost on offense as if they don't practice their set enough.  It's a garbage staff, a better technical coach would work wonders with this team. 

Voicemail:  Hello Mitch, Billy Donovan here, about that opening at UK, is it still available?

2024 NBA draft: Complete order of picks for the first and second round

Apr 20, 2024

Quote

After completion of the NBA play-in tournament, we now know the teams who'll be participating in the NBA draft lottery, giving us a better picture of the complete pick order for the 2024 NBA draft.

The top two teams on the board and worst two teams in the league this season -- the Detroit Pistons and Washington Wizards -- each have a 14% chance to land the No. 1 overall pick. The Portland Trail Blazers and Charlotte Hornets tied for the league's third worst record. The Pistons are just three years removed from having the top pick, when they selected Cade Cunningham in 2021. The Wizards last had the top pick in 2010 (John Wall), the Blazers last picked No. 1 in 2007 (Greg Oden) and the Hornets haven't landed the top pick since 1991 (Larry Johnson).

Other teams that will be paying significant attention to the lottery are the Houston Rockets, Toronto Raptors and Golden State Warriors. The Raptors will send their pick (currently No. 6) to San Antonio if it falls lower than sixth. The Rockets and Warriors will both lose their picks unless they jump into the top four (though the Rockets also have the Nets' pick).

Here's an updated look at where every draft pick stands right now.

Basketball being my favorite sport but the HOF was worst of the 3 major HOFs, been to the Boxing HOF but it’s so small not sure it counts. 

If you're NOLA, do you take the late teens pick this year, or punt to 2025?

I think I would wait for 2025 and hope the wheels fall off. Lots of health question marks for AD and old LeBron. They had a good year, and a team just above .500 is about what you would expect for them at best. Unless they swing some big trade out of nowhere, they shouldn't do any better in 25.

Punt until next year. The Lakers, as currently constructed, reached their peak this year. They're not getting more minutes out of AD and Lebron next year. And this year's draft is weak (at least that's what I keep hearing, I haven't paid attention to it much at all).

Fair. Although I would have made the Kardashians joke, since we're specifically talking about NBA players getting in.

Wolves up 15+ is Conley is even average this game.

Wolves have clear size advantage outside of Nurk. They can feast with ease. Not many dumb turnovers helps
