2023-24 Running NBA thread

Ha. No, I definitely don't think that.

That cheap shot he took on Turner's groin last night - and his behavior afterward - is the source of my animosity.

 

That's why Nesmith, Nembhard and McConnell have been attempting to guard Brunson. I hate to think how crazy his numbers would be in this series if Hali had been on him.

 

I watched extended highlights of the Nuggets-Wolves game. So many of the shots made by Jokic were ridiculous. Peak Hakeem or Dwight Howard wouldn’t have stopped him.

 

I am not calling Mitchell soft but how can you commit $40-50M per year to a guy in his late 20's who's missing the playoff games for a soft tissue injury (which means it possibly recurring, not that it's a "soft" injury)?

As for the Mavs, somehow they've got to stop SGA who's the next best thing in crunch time after Jokic (and maybe Murray).

 

I have to say that “Luka decided not to bitch at the refs tonight” as a storyline is kind of a comical story to have to write.

 

It's gonna be Boston-Denver after all, isn't it? Nuggets have gotten their scare. Boston isn't losing to either the Knicks or Pacers.

 

Not without OG

 

He’s already doing work on the court and should be back by the Eastern Conference Finals, should the Knicks win.
