The Official 2024-25 NBA Regular Season Discussion Thread

Honestly, as much as I wish it had a cap, Baseball (theoretically) tends to have a lot of parity because the entire game isn't just dependent on a singular player. One player can only do so much on a bad Baseball team, while one player can mean the difference between a loss and a win in basketball.

And that's just the sport IMO. I think there's salary and rule changes that could probably help this and I'd be open minded to them. It's just if they fuck up any single thing from "my daddy's basketball" then the criticism will be endless and they won't have any chance to take form for us to even see if they'd helo the parity lol

A few ideas I personally have:

- Remove the soft cap

- Enact a hard cap

- Lower the total cap to a flat rate for ten years, $100 Million.

- End the luxury tax on bigger NBA teams

- Limit how many players can have supermax contracts, lower the supermax limit to 5 years.

- Expand the league and add two more teams to the league: The Seattle SuperSonics returning, and Baltimore Bullets, and make it so teams can only protect three players.

Fuck Tom Thibodeau. He is going to let you down hard like he did the Timberwolves.

He got the knicks to the playoffs that's more then the last three coaches did.

Also Klay Thompson is unlikeable

Durant too ?



Draymond I will agree with

Considering he went from facing off against Golden State to signing with them the next year, yeah. I'd say that's a pretty unlikable move.

Durant always seem pretty chill in grand scheme of things I dont like what he did there but I wouldnt say that it made him unlikeable.

 

[Chris]

I'd say Durant became pretty unlikable around when he joined the Warriors yeah, I defended him at first but then I think he really leaned into the heel persona

But yeah not Klay for sure. Draymond counts for like 3 as well even though I personally love the guy He is not likable

I mean I havent seen anything but I could be in wrong there.

The Hawks can't handle Embiid and The Sixers they win tonight and dominate the Game from the beginning. Capela and Collins can't handle the Big Man and he's legit doing whatever he wants on the floor. Hawks that is cool and all, but then you're letting guys like Harris, and Simmons beat you. Simmons dropped 18 points tonight and he was super aggressive tonight and I'm going to need to see more of that the rest of the Playoffs. The Hawks complained every moment if felt like when they didn't get their way and even Trae got a Tech because of it. We take Home Court from The Hawks now time to scoop up another win what Monday and put these kids to sleep and onto the next Round.

Dennis Schroder reportedly turned down $84 million from Lakers, and he's likely going to regret that decision

Wow what a terrible decision that was.

 

[Apoho Creed]

I mean the Lakers are in win now don't know what going on in his head. Even if he wants more money from someone else do you wanna win a Ring think about that Schroder.

 

[Necro]

Damn two out of the three big three down.

Not good for Brooklyn to lose two of your stars the momentum is swinging hard towards The Bucks now. They need to win today and the Ball is in their Court.

 

[Necro]

Anyone watch pregame and midgame with Barkely, and Shaq? I really enjoy it, but holy shit I can barely understand what Shaq is saying.

 

[Necro]

Jokic getting ejected in game 4 is crazy.
