The Official 2024/5 NBA Week 13 Thread (Lakers make their move)

[fidstar]

Been holidaying for a couple of weeks. Came back to watch all the Warriors games, and even 2 weeks later they haven't edited out the time outs. They earn $1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 from subscribers and they can't have one guy who's job it is is to edit out time outs, end of quarters etc for every game. smh

Anyway what did I miss?

Lebron on FIRE!

Lebron on FIRE!

He's no CJ McCollum

So Wemby has more 3s than dunks...

Jokic only needed one more assist for another triple double

Jokic only needed one more assist for another triple double

Through 99 games Wemby has:

2,238 career points – more than all-time scoring leader LeBron James through his first 99 games.

364 career blocks – more than all-time blocks leader Hakeem Olajuwon through his first 99 games.

221 career 3-pointers – more than all-time 3-point leader Stephen Curry through is first 99 games.

Looking forward to Wemby vs Jokic tomorrow Wemby has made huge steps the last 2 months and he is meeting a man in some of the best individual form of all time! Should be a cracker.

Just got to say, that didn’t disappoint what a show!

Daniels out to $56 for defensive player of the year.

Will they give it to a foreigner?

 

[mumblingpie]

So where’s Butler new home?

Wonder where Jimmy ends up? Which contender could pony up Heats asking price?

GSW surely.

 

[tigs2010]

Memphis apparently moved into equal 1st with Phoenix and GSW with the bookies for Jimmy.

Don't think Miami want Beal with the no trade clause. We asked him to remove it when he was traded to Phoenix and he said no and went there.

Edit: the 3 Memphis guys that match salary with Jimmy and J-Rich are all "injured" today.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

It's Memphis it seems

Smart, Konchar and Brandon Clarke plus picks for Butler and Highsmith is what I've read

Smart has been injured for a while lol. And Memphis are on a b2b doesn’t help

 

[tigs2010]

Yeah i should have checked what they meant. The 3 were Konchar, Kennard & Bane

I think the salary match will be the above with Smart & Clarke in place of Bane.

Well I thought this got exciting as Ja is out tonight...

 

[peternorth]

Wouldn’t you want Bane if you’re Miami?

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Wouldn’t you want Bane if you’re Miami?

Bane is a better player then Butler by himself so of course

It is also why Memphis wouldnt be that stupid also

 

[tigs2010]

Wouldn’t you want Bane if you’re Miami?

Absolutely, but why would Memphis do that deal?

 

[tigs2010]

I mean, if there was anyone that was going to hold a gun to his teams head to force a trade to a team of choice...

 

[Nicho50]

Pistons torching the Wolves at present.

Wolves fans would have to be so unhappy with the Randle / Towns trade wouldn’t they. Randle has been ok but don’t think it’s gelled with Ant at all and Towns has been a complete beast.

Smart is overrrated. I wouldnt be touching him if I’m Miami. Bane as a starting touch point or gtfo.
