NBA Season 2024-25

OKC taking it to Cleveland. They?re literally about to triple them up.

I think OKC as a young team is a lot better at home. I?m interested to see how they fare in the playoffs against tough competition away from home when the lights are brightest.

OKC is the team to beat and the favorites in all of the NBA.

But it is slightly encouraging to me that Cleveland looks a little more vulnerable in recent games. I mean the way our own team is playing, I'm just gonna focus on the East picture and Cleveland, and if we do actually make the Finals and have to play OKC we can worry about them then.

We have our own things to clean up but right now Boston should still be the 2nd best team in the East and hopefully can have a puncher's chance vs. Cleveland IF they can figure it out.

Cavs are pretenders.

OKC is also missing their frontcourt (Chet and Hartenstein). Still up 24. Wow

I'll admit, SGA is likely the MVP this season

We'll see if OKC can get past Dallas or Lakers first lol. Feels like they're OKC's kryptonites, especially the latter

It's because they only had Chet for a handful of years. Now it's also Hartenstein. Though yes, they really need both healthy otherwise if it's just Chet and then their poor frontcourt depth, guys like AD/Lively/Gafford/Sengun/Sabonis/Jokic will eat them alive.

True. I look forward to AD vs Holmgren/Hartenstein clashing in the playoffs. At least both teams can beat each other to a 7-game series.

I still think OKC just has way more talent than some of these teams so it could make up the difference anyways. The Lakers are more flawed this year IMO. I think Denver, Memphis and Dallas are the only *threats* for OKC out West, and that's assuming those 3 are fully healthy. I'm not as sold on Dallas but they did beat OKC last year and match up well against some of the West teams, and added a 3rd scorer in Klay. Houston isn't quite there yet. Clippers are too hurt. Lakers have a 40 year old Lebron and a pretty mediocre roster besides AD/Lebron.

Ja Morant just put Wemby in a body bag.

One of the best dunks I've seen.  Unreal.

He?s a special talent. Arguably the most exciting player to watch in the NBA.

[Phantom255x]

I absolutely love Sabonis. He's my next dream target for the C's beyond 2026. Hope SAC decides to blow it up around then.

Just saw that the Clippers beat the Nets last night 126-67. 

Can?t remember the last time I saw a team score less than 70 points.

Clips might do it again LOL.

Up 78-49 on the Blazers, 2:30 mins left in the 3rd

Refs ruining a good Kings/Rockets game with unnecessary soft foul calls.

[Phantom255x]

YES! DEEBO! Kings -3 hit and ultimately so did all my game prediction bets today 

I would LOVE to see a Kings-Rockets playoff series.

Kings have really turned it around. Sabonis + DeRozan beasting. Murray, Fox and Monk all doing well (and funny enough, Fox has been iffy lately but you expect he'll turn it around again). If they can trade for a nice backup big behind Sabonis they'll be a really tough out. I hope they make the play-in/playoffs over a team like the Warriors or Suns.
