The Official NBA Season Thread: Season Starts Now

Grant Hill stinks and RJ uses his white/corporate voice on ESPN too much for me. Just bring Mark back

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Just reunite Doris with her work husband and move on.

Breen+Legler
Mark Jones+Doris
Rucco+RJ

No need to complicate things. Probably a bad look to demote Doris after a year from the A team, but three people booths suck and she has infinitely more chemistry with Jones.

Real easy right here. Leggs has more personality that ppl give him credit for. He be saying some slick **** on the low

Ian Eagle’s son wasn’t bad btw. I don’t fully get the Dorris hate. She can be corny at times, but endearing too. Her and Mark Jones just work together. Their chemistry a1

 

[finessence]

RJ funny. IDC what nobody say

 

[HIM]

Please just get rid of Hubie.

Join the Women's hoops thread fellas

Thread has more hate and agenda pushing than even this one

Highly recommend

but three people booths suck

I agree that this is a rule, but there are exceptions like Greg Gumbel, Walton and Snapper Jones. For a while Breen, Mark Jackson and JVG.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

That jump shot form feels like NBA range might be slightly too far for him.

But if he can make em this could be really good signing.



could imagine him as a small ball 5 against bench units.

Also, I would never subject myself to listening to a full hour of these NBA player podcasts (I respect myself too much) but of the clips I see on twitter, I can say Teague is by far the best as he doesn't take himself seriously and has the rare ability among these guys to actually laugh at himself.

Also, as much as his platform is xenophobic and toxic, Gil is good at what he does, and understands the "take" economy. Not sure he believes half of what he says but he's good at it, and knows how to frame things well for engagement.

Grant Hill stinks when he does NCAA games. Please keep him away from the NBA Finals.

Back to the ranking NBA cities convo, I have a general question for folks. I'm in this bubble so it's hard for me to be objective but what is/was/ever will be the overall thought of folks coming HERE (DC) to play?

What don't we have that keeps folks skipping over this city to come play for the Wizards?

I know the lack of success plays a role but what's stopping someone from coming and getting the party started?

I come in peace.

The franchise is disgusting…Same thing with ATL, you would think dudes would flock to play there but the Hawks franchise always had a bad rep since they mostly stink

They're gonna throw Pat Bev and his pod in the basement soon

 

[moe200069]

Pat Bev is saying this like he built like lebron body. Bro is built like a teenager just learning how to bench press and yet no one likes him.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

wait, isn't mya moore the same size?

 

[osh kosh bosh]

the "normal woman's frame" comment is weird /problematic.



but the overall thrust or the argument
Caitlin Clark plays a more entertaining and relatable style of basketball than past WBB stars.


same reason guards always sell more shoes than bigs generally.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Yea hopefully body positivity crew comes for Pat Beverly for the normal woman build comment. That can be a fun exchange.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

"Good one."

Had to do a double-take.
