Play Nice The Official 2024/5 NBA Week 15 Thread

They've probably only got $45-50 million worth of talent on the active list, and more than half of that is Nic Claxton.

The surprise really shouldn't be that they get mauled, but more that they've somehow won 14 games already.

No Ben no Nets

No Ben no Nets

He's making as much as every player that played for them today combined. And they scored 67 points, which is probably 60 more than Ben would have scored.

There's always a silver lining to be found providing you squint your eyes hard enough.

Obviously more games than they'd hoped to have won

Really hope that Jalen Green can continue his strong form that he's shown of late but I feel like I've been burnt so many times.

Being a hot chilli you’d be used to that

Paul George has been a terrible signing for 76ers. When not injured he has just been very inefficient.

Doesn't help Embiid has hardly played - different injury every game....back, knee, face, ankle etc etc etc etc
76ers should never allowed him to go to the Olympics

He was already busted end of last season and came back in even worse shape

PG instead of saying he was bored at centre, should've threw Embiid under the bus as that's why his role has changed

Nic Claxton gives that get paid give up vibe. A bit of Ben Simmons rubbing off on him

Nets can only score if Cam Johnson is playing but he is such a huge asset they gotta trade him. I think they are the PERFECT team to take on Bradley Beals contract, especially if they flick Cam Johnson for huge assets too. Beal just needs to be convinced to leave. I feel like he could be if he is given the keys to the team like he would at Nets. They could also take on Duncan Robinsons deal too

Reminder the Pistons started last year 3-36.

Fantastic turnaround.

Hats off to JB Bickerstaff.

Signing PG might not have been the answer but keeping Harris certainly wasn’t it either.

The screwed up not resigning butler.

Bro forgot the Grizzlies spanked the warriors by 51.

OKC exploded in that first quarter.

 

[catpremier 07]

Have they turned off crowd audio for this okc game.
So quiet.

Think I'm finally in the 'Shai for MVP' camp now. He's just phenomenal on both sides of the ball, and OKC are on a 69-win pace (as opposed to Denver's 49 and Milwaukee's 46).

Another 40 and 8 today (in three quarters, shooting 17/26 with only five FTAs). Unstoppable

He has been great , I still think Jokic is the MVP though.

To be clear, I'm not trying to discredit Joker at all. Their offensive splits with him on and off the floor are absolutely absurd and he epitomises 'MVP' by the true definition of the word.

Whether it's right or not, team records do impact the award though, and OKC are tracking to finish 20(!) wins clear of Denver. That, and his defensive impact for a Thunder team that's on a historical pace defensively is tough to ignore. Either would be a deserving winner, but for the first time, I have SGA just a nose in front.

 

[NSWCROW]

Yeah gotta be sga for mine

 

[peternorth]

If SGA wins I for one won't begrudge him

 

[hamG]

Just a reminder, the Knicks passed on SGA for ...
