OT: NBA Thread - Oct 2024

[Mr. French]

Excited not only for OUR boys, but for the whole league - looks like JT and JB are excited too!

I'm invested in the Mavs I think long term, but especially this Thursday - Mavs vs. Spurs on National TV.

 

[Mr. French]

I've never seen a bunch of numbers like the Celtics starting 5 3 pointers looks like today.

 

[aceboon]

I don't know about this Randle fit with Minny, we will see what it looks like 20 games in but very clunky tonight

 

[Mr. French]

Lakers and Celtics both showed up. Redick on pace to be the greatest coach in NBA history

 

[JohnFSilver]

Boston was incredible before embarrassing themselves hunting a final 3. Kind of comical.

Knicks gotta be like, well…back to drawing board

Did you see that Fan Duel is offering 3 free months of NBA League Pass just for making a $5 bet? I made my bet on the Celtics last night. The only catch is they start charging you if you forget to cancel. I don't bother with most promos but 3 months is worth it to me.

Serious? Gonna do that.

For real. It's on my Roku as we speak. My account is up $4.55.

Andre Drummond on Opening Night.

8 minutes so far, 7 rebounds.

At this rate, he'll get 3000 rebounds this year.

Everyone but Castle has their team in action tonight, no? So far it seems all (of games started) but Newton are on the opening night roster.

Only Drummond with any PT so far.

I checked on Newton and he is inactive, but it was good to see him also make the team.

I took $10 and a parlay to get the fanduel free ticket. Amazing offer.

Let’s go pacers, bucks, raptors.

Not a Clingan guy?

Too late at night

shocked at how well Lonzo Ball looks physically, unless I'm mistaken I don't know of any NBA players that have had a cartilage transplant and come back to play in the league. if this goes well for him and he holds up there will probably be more players at the end of their rope physically that will be hitting him up for his surgeon.

I did it last year, ended up doing the rest of the year like 15/month but it was well worth it.

 

[JohnFSilver]

The trail blazers suck.

I took the warriors to get league pass
Promo but come on. Lol.

The other catch is the League Pass is disaster of a service. Illegal streams are more reliable than that trash.

Good to hear Legler on the call for the Clippers-Suns game last night. Looking forward to checking out the Clippers' new spot, the place looks incredible.

Love Legler, hope he gets more opportunities.

Love Legler, hope he gets more opportunities.

He was added to ESPN's rotation of color commentators for this season

 

[aceboon]

Randle looked alot more comfortable last night

 

[caw]

Clingan vs Hawkins tonight should be interesting.

Pelicans don't have the best center rotation but Missi looked really good off the bench in game one for them and Theis is always an interesting matchup with his shooting.

Hawkins should get good PT with Murray and Murphy both out.

EDIT: early but Pels interior defense is trash

Haven’t watched the Bulls yet but this is good to hear. Huge Lonzo fan and these injuries suck. The Bulls were doing so well with him healthy.

I wonder if he’ll get to a point where he can start for them again because they need a PG if he can ramp up enough.
