The Official NBA Season Thread: I’m like Jayson Tatum in the Olympics I'm not playing

[Maximus Meridius]

Yes

Maxey, Donovan, Shai all pretty much even.

I wanted to put Giannis in there cuz he’s still taking over with his scoring but them other dudes have a lil more zip to them at the moment

He still primed and ready though. The bucks are starting to look a lil sus…

He's definitely picked up the slack for Dame as of late

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Wemby +2500 DPOY is a bargain

About time

I would say it’s between luka, embiid/maxey lol, Tatum, Jokic and Edwards

By the eye test I’m still giving it to Jokic

Jokic
Embiid/Maxey
Luka
Tatum
Ant

Embiid & Maxey don't cannibalize each others votes?

Magic couldn’t get 5 assists passing to washed Klay, whatever wiggins is, and Draymond the menace. That’s a mid team

Sounds like a dynasty to me

Joker winning MVP again as long as he stays healthy.

Going to be some voter remorse after last season.

If Steph is who y'all claim he is they better be a contender.

Do the Warriors make the playoffs this season?

They better.

THEY said

" a season for the books"
" on NT"
"no excuses"
"our chemistry is back"

Idk about that and I like Maxey. He's literally playing with an MVP, makes life much easier, which neither of the other two ever have.

No Poole to blame and now they're going down the roster blaming everyone but Wardell.....

This is why KD left.

 

[danger style]

DPOY?!

 

[RustyShackleford]

About time

I want Book to sit out for a couple more weeks

Him being rushed back from lesser injuries have always lead to him getting a worse one.

Even though, the team needs him back desperately. Dude makes that whole thing go offensively.

Book tryna make all NBA. Same with fox. Was watching the Knicks game and they said Randle refused to take a rest day. League ain't soft no mo

It’s one or the other, not necessarily both

 

[Peep Game]

Yeah I don't get doing podcasts while the season is active. I'm not saying it takes away from your focus but when things go bad you look corny.

Like Micah Parsons. When the Cowboys lose dude on his podcast making excuses and "but when we see them again...." Like you just saw them my _.

It looked Parsons brought his podcast equipment to the locker room a couple games ago

I actually think they are right.
But this is where refs gotta be allowed to use their judgment.

there a "you know it when you see it" element of taunting vs celebrating.

you shouldn't allow taunting that is likley to result in fights.
but I think you allow reasonable basketball celebrations after big dunks and plays.

 

[lawdog1]

Nike doesn’t play in the same conference as Fox.

Nor does Adidas.

Jordan is retired.

it’s not the same bro.

So your whole “a true dog would create his own brand” comment was really meaningless. You just don’t like the brand Fox happened to chose to sign with.
