2024 Offseason Thread

Hearing that 3 expansion teams plan on entering the league in 2027/28.

Source?

Silver is obsessed with Mexico City. Should add Kansas City or Louisville and round it out at 34 if they are going to do that.

Thought it was pretty shit and certainly forced in regard to LeBron. Quarterback one was a lot better.

Yeah wasn't great in comparison , felt it was the Lebron propaganda doc

Surely the NBA would be enamoured with the success if the Golden Knights in Vegas?

How apt that at a time of local government elections, Ricky Council IV is starting to find his feet

They definitely are, there were talks of an NBA style resort being built on the strip. Vegas and Seattle are walk up starts. If they want three teams, it's anyone's guess who the third is.

Kawhi out indefinitely. Harden going for 40 on 40 shots.

I know many are sick of him and his injuries. Just retire already

Didn't he just signed a 4 year deal? Clippers are so dumb hitching the wagon to him

 

[peternorth]

Hartenstein out for 5-6 weeks with a broken hand

 

[peternorth]

On Kawhi.....The Thunder own whichever draft pick is better out of the rockets and clippers. Imagine the Clips being poo and a lottery team....then they WIN the lottery and OKC get the no 1 pick. lol

Watching the starting 5 doc on Netflix, feels like it's about how great Lebron is and add 4 others in.

Feel like watching it made me like Tatum way more seems like just a genuine guy , Butler already liked too and confirmed that, feel like Sabonis was a throwaway in it.

Watching Ant Edwards though. The guy is a legit lazy wannabe off the court. Playing Fortnite whilst his family is over for Thanksgiving. He’s not really that likeable. Sure he’s a talent, but sheesh he talks.

Apparently has 4 kids with 4 different women.

Plays to me like a softer Luka Doncic which is still a hell of a player. Suspect he plays 20+ mins right away and makes a big difference

Ant is that LeBron concept I think. He like LeBron knew from 15 where he was going to end up. LeBron stayed grounded by keeping those around him before he became what he is today. Tatum and Sabonis appear similar. Ant just appears to have ditched everyone and is riding it alone. The other 3 really got time to grow up before they were thrown into the positions they are in.

I feel sorry for the guy really. I couldnt imagine living my life like that and being a happy person. I think what you see is just a incredibly lonely guy who can trust no one, which also includes himself

When he went up against Bo Cruz he wasnt a lonely guy
