The Official NBA Season Thread: USA Setting Up for a SFA

I don't see old already rich Charles ever working for Disney

SAS and Barkley would be unbearable.

Chuck is smart enough to know he doesn't fit under ESPN/ABC.

We're in a bad place as a thread I can't lie.

Always enjoy a good modified version of, "This thread is in shambles."

Ime had everything lined up man staff, roster, front office

He's smart enough to take that check

Mazz staff is better tbh.

Other than that, sucks to be an idiot.

We starting to get some national attention. I’m Ngl Houston is STACKED with talent.
Amen Thompson
Jalen Green
Reed Sheppard
Cam Whitmore
Jabari Smith
TarI Eason
And SENGUN

Not to mention the Rockets also picked up Steven Adams and Jeff Green. Still got Fred VanVleet too

I know she got the creamy

Please God no. Chuck is funny but I’m really tired of his schtick. “Who He Play for” and no real bball analysis has done a lot of damage to the way hoops is discussed. This take is crazy/stinks considering all that Giannis has already accomplished.

Good. So many times where the refs tried to do their old "It was really a foul on team A but we'll just give the ball back to the team B player who had it" thing, but then with reviews they couldn't review the foul part of it.

There will definitely be some questionable foul calls but hopefully some of it is offset by times players don't ask for and coaches don't challenge situations where the only reason one of the players lost the ball out of bounds is because they got fouled or hit.

This was the dumbest thing ever. I have no idea why it took so long to change the rule

2017 is more balanced



2022

They’d have to ditch all their other “talent” cause I don’t think Chuck could work with doofuses like Perk or Jefferson. Not surprising that ESPN misses why he works so well on TNT. Even there the dynamic might get out of hand if Ernie wasn’t moderating. Regardless, there’s a big difference surrounding him with guys who won 90’s titles vs the kind of latter day dummies ESPN has on hand.

Charles would be perfect with Perk and RJ…

 

[antidope]

Yup

 

[Moheezy]

Man...VC had the potential to be one of the greatest SG conversation right next to Wade and maybe even Kobe.

Definitely good talent, but no top level talent. Who in here can be considered a corner stone? Wasn't Sengun in trade rumours as well? Unless someone makes a leap, it's hard to imagine this team making any noise. They may have a ton of close competitive games, but closing might be an issue.

Houston isnt going anywhere until one of their young guys takes the next step.

Might be another lottery year.
