NBA Season 2025-26

[slightly biased bias fan]

I feel so sorry for basketball fans in New Orleans.

The history of NBA basketball in their city has been fraught with cheap & incompetent ownership. Yet when their attendance figures look poor, journalists and media figures will blame the fans for not showing up and supporting the team.

Apparently their Smoothie King Center is terrible too.

All you have to do is look at the New Orleans Saints and you can see how Louisianians will come out and support their team if things are run with a semblance of competence.

How are San Antonio 20pts down against Phoenix?

That is a shocker.

If Memphis is gonna trade Ja, they might as well go on a full rebuild. If so, Santi Aldama might be a nice piece for Boston moving forward? He?d also be a nice mentor for Hugo, both being spanish.

Phoenix hung on and got the win. They held Wemby to 9pts. 4-14 FGA with no FTs in 34 minutes. Spurs had a bad shooting night 10-41 from three. Phoenix was hot at 19-33 3PTA. That is the game there.

Phoenix won 130-118.

[Who]

Dylan Harper had 12pts in 11 minutes. Why not give him more playing time?

I have been surprised how little playing time he has been getting because he has been playing great when given a chance. He is playing 25.8mpg and putting up 14.4ppg 4.6rpg 4.6apg. That would be 20pts 6.5reb 6.5ast per 36 minutes. Good shooting numbers 48% FG 35.7% 3PT 81% FT 57.1% TS. He is playing good D too.

I don't get it.

[Who]

Injuries taking their toll?
Decline in athleticism? Still looks special to me.
Reluctance to get hit due to past injuries? Perhaps.

He left the game tonight with an injury.
