2024 NBA Season and Playoffs

[SparzWizard]

Right now, the play-in matchups in the West are Suns-Kings, Warriors-Lakers

Sign me the hell up for both of them

Four teams in the Pacific Division battling for two spots, nice

Breaking: Trae Young suffered a tear of the radial collateral ligament (RCL) in the fifth finger of his left hand Friday.

He will undergo surgery on Tuesday and will be re-evaluated in four weeks. Atlanta is currently in the last play-in spot.

With Young out that two game Atlanta swing looks pretty easy at the end of March

East looks like
Boston
Milwaukee
Cavs
Knicks

As the top 4. 5-8 will be revolving door until the playoffs start

Bucks taking the Sixers to the woodshed right now.

Jimmy Butler and Naji Marshall have each been suspended for one game, per the NBA.

If I'm Trae Young I just sit the rest of this season out and prepare for next season on a different team. He's likely gonna get a lot of trade interest (Spurs, Lakers, etc.) and I think he should ask for one too. This Atlanta team is going nowhere in the coming years regardless.

Lowery can still take charges. I wish PP would put that into his game.

I don't think Atlanta will miss Trae. They have Dejounte Murray to take over at PG. They will go bigger at SG. Better defense & rebounding. That will help cover the loss of offense.

I expect them to be roughly as good without Trae as they are with Trae.

This is mainly because of Dejounte Murray. Because of how badly balanced their lineup is with the two of them. The diminished returns with those two. If the team was properly built, the loss of Trae would hurt a lot more. But because it is so badly built, oddly enough it will help them play as well without Trae as with Trae.

Bucks rallying together and figuring out their identities? B2b wins against playoff-caliber teams on the road.

Philly is not a good team without Embid. I think they are Even sub .500 without him. You have quickly Become the king of saying a team is figuring things out when they win two games in a row though so i will give you a tp
For the commitment to the bit.

It is an absolute pleasure to watch Austin Reaves play defense. He looks like someone snuck in from a church league going against Booker and Durant.

They're a mediocre basketball team.

The bucks are absolutely legit and a threat, don’t care if Philly isn’t good without Embiid. Bucks have 2 first ballot hall of famers and probably are “figuring it out” but keep acting like they aren’t legit over there in delusional green land

It’s such a nice thing to open a thread on a late Sunday afternoon and read the posts above.
