The Official NBA Season Thread: HO HO HO

These stats are interesting, but it’s not even that deep.

The Celtics would still comfortably be a playoff team without Tatum. Can’t say that about the Nuggets, Thunder, T-Wolves or Bucks without their best player.

It’s not a knock on Tatum; he’s just blessed to be on a really, really good team.

Future comish Luka

I don’t know why, but I was kind of surprised to see that Luka is looking at these kind of issues at that level with that lens. It’s cool. And I apologize for assuming he was more shallow than he apparently is.

The players definitely have a better pulse on the game than the league suits

I feel like that's the sports/ university industry in general in the US?

I don't live there, but whenever we are on vacation in Europe and meet American parents, they often talk about their kids and what sports they are focusing on solely for the purpose of getting a university scholarship.

One parent in particular was talking about new upcoming sports and how they can take advantage of that since the competition is still not quite there. The mother also mentioned the bowling is an easier path to university scholarship so they're enrolling their son in competitive bowling.

This is wild to me for so many reasons that I cannot mention as I am in the middle of a client zoom meeting.

I remember Game 2 of the NBA Finals where he shot like 25 shots then said he didn't care about scoring cause he was like 6/25

didn't need to score, just had to shoot 24% to honor his basketball idol

What is this about?

HOPEFULLY, those 3 doing some reminiscing, but also saying good things about younger players and that they think the game is in a great place.

It’s an ESPN/ABC thing so doesn’t that almost certainly mean that Stephen A or Malika will be involved?

Setting looks like it took place during the Olympics, so if there's an interviewer I'm guessing it would be Windy since he was on assignment in Paris.
