The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[Nipsey3000]

Enough of the coach Ham scapegoating. The Lakers brass needs to take some responsibility over some of the player decisions they've made.

Kobe is rolling over.

Pleading to not get fired this early in the season is not a good sign

 

[Mister Meaner]

Greatest thing to come from this boring pod

I thought the Lakers offseason moves looked pretty solid on paper, especially coming off a Conference Finals run. Unfortunately for them, however, I think there was an overestimation of how good that team actually was.

So it seemed like basically running it back, while trying to improve on the margins, as opposed to doing anything big, was the way to go. I think it was a logical approach at the time; but hindsight is always 20-20.

Need Poole to play the whole 48 tonite to secure the trap game win.

that's literally what the hoop collective podcast said. They roasted Ratsull hardcore lmfao

Rockets need a miracle tonight but will most likely lose to the bucks. Giannis might have 50 tonight if he chooses too with how bad the paint defense is

Then a 6 game road trip against some good eastern conference teams (minus the pistons). Rockets have to got on track against some good teams. I also need the warriors and lakers to continue losing to help us out

Agreed. But pushing back to after the championship run, there are alot of moves that they probably wish they could take back.

Agreed.

Sucks for them that the Vincent signing hasn't worked out.

If he was healthy and played like he did in Miami it would help some of the Lakers' shooting woes.

Washed been going on too many dates.. it’s the 2024 equivalent of “I was out hoopin, what did i miss?”

 

[king j]

Pelinka should be on the hot seat more than Darvin

 

[651akathepaul]

Minnesota needs a sharp shooter, but he'd into NAWs minutes and need his defense.

Hield would be a great piece for lots of contenders though.

 

[big j 33]

The Lakers really should trade Bron. You can maybe get 2 firsts for Bron. But it won't happen.
