The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

The weakest Western conference top to bottom that we’ve had in a LONG time

not sure if it's the weakest.. i think there's just a lot more parity in the WCF and no one's running away with it. actually, there's parity across the entire league. I can't think of a finals match up between the top 3 teams in each conference that wouldn't be at least a 6 game series.

it's a confusing season. dubs are a combined 0-4 against orlando and detroit but 2-0 against memphis

Man warriors fans really don’t like Jordan poole. The NT turn happened so quick

It started with Derek Fisher and now this. Matt Barnes needs to find a woman who doesn’t suck him into these dustups.

Matt Barnes the common denominator here not the women

Where was this noise when Jordan was smoking all them scrubs for a decade.

We were all like 8 years old

But the fact that there’s no real elite team makes it weaker. The Top 2 teams in the East are better than the field. Not common for the last few decades of the league at all

Who’s the 2nd east team better than the entire West? Philly or Milwaukee?

Cause uhh….

 

[Coupé It]

Warriors the kings of out of bounds plays.

Stop with this.

Curry was about smack TF out of him.

Curry wouldn’t smack a Star

 

[WASHED KING]

Oh so that’s the narrative we starting now?

Where was this noise when Jordan was smoking all them scrubs for a decade. None of those teams were ver good compared to the teams of this era.

GREAT POINT

 

[Coupé It]

These Air Max so dope.

[adobecs4]

These nightly scoring outbursts is like the juiced ball era of MLB

Cause uhh….

Milwaukee obviously isn’t playing like it but I’m taking them over anyone out West in a 7 game series

Grizzlies 4th L in a row. Haven’t won since the fiasco at Crypto

Why is there no chatter about switching the playoff format to the top 16 teams overall?

Embiid can make motions towards his genitals with no repercussions. Must be nice.

Nets shot 65% against a top 5 defense w/o KD, needed him to get over that hump last nite. Nets were being too aggressive early

But whateva. Look at Nic Claxton's development. LOOK!

I forgot if someone said this about the NBA or if they said something similar about the NFL about division winners being TOP but in the case of the NBA, I think they want to make sure each conference has equal representation so fans from each coast have an opportunity to potentially see their teams play. As of right now it is actually even, though

I also think there’s something to the uniqueness of having teams that only played twice in the regular season as opposed to teams that played 3/4 times already
