NBA 23/24:season

The playoffs haven’t been great bar a few series, not sure why, maybe because the likes of LeBron, Curry, KD etc dont have a contending team, it all seemed a bit flat.

Fair play to Boston, Iam not a fan but got to give them credit, I just feel like they are a bit meh, not a team people will be talking about in years to come, I know it’s a silly thing to say but I don’t think they are that good, they do have a solid roster but I would love to see them really tested

im sorry didnt get 33/1 on them

I agree, I actually thought it was a little disrespectful my the Celtics to lose that game, they totally knew that they would close it out at home.

Not a massive Celtics fan but give credit where credit is due, they were by far the best team all year, they aren’t sexy but very solid, impressed by Brown, really stepped up

The entire package of players and picks that the Celtics traded for Jrue Holiday, Derrick White and Kristaps Porzingis started a combined 59 NBA games this season. This is Steven’s title in many ways, although the coaching staff and players deserve massive credit for one of the better end to end years in NBA history.

My view is that their dominance this year has been incorrectly downplayed and under appreciated.

Because he was a key starter acquired in trade.

I see why you're nitpicking though, given your dreadful assessment of the Celtics pre season above. Hopefully you have now purged that little part of you that wanted the Celtics to fail!

Celtics are worthy winners, steamrolled the competition really

clever trade!

Reddick new Lakers coach

Absolutely sickened. Bulls fan since the 90's, AC was a breath of fresh air, absolute hustler that Bulls need so bad. Here's to another season of Zach throwing up bricks, Vooch staying out of the paint, Ball being absolutely dodgy and Demar trying to hold every game together with middy's. Sickened.

is Giddey in the clear after his dalliance with that blond 15 year old ? She did look older , and he said she lied about her age, yet if it was a black basketball player i'm not so sure it would have all been forgiven and forgotten

That trade is horrific, I would have thought a first would have been thrown in. OKC must be finally ready to make a push. And about time.

A good reminder of how the Celtics built a juggernaut with championship equity for such a long period of time.

Having the courage to do the big deal again last summer and build on this platform deserves huge credit. Whether you are a Celtics fan or not, they have been incredibly well run for a long period of time at this point. Don’t forget the delicate handling of the coaching issue too. Kudos.

Huge haul and yet I still really like it for the Knicks. Be interesting to see what other moves they make.

I'm pretty sure Hart averaged 49 minutes at one point during the playoffs.

Brunson, DiVincenzo, OG, Randle, Robinson - Hart, Bridges, Hartenstein......they are loaded now the battle for 6th man will be fierce haha.

I seen it mooted about PG but I'd assume the Bridges deal kills that off.

Supposedly they are considering dealing Robinson if they can get a good return.

The Nets are blowing it up anyway. They want Cam Johnson dealt before the draft and have Cam Thomas lead a rebuild.

Full first round:

I'm very happy with Portland's business (cursed history with drafting big men aside). Clingan was getting talked about as a potential Top 3 pick and he's probably got the highest floor of anyone in the class. Avdija is better than anyone they could've taken at 14 and he's on a really nice contract too.

OKC got a steal, they're in a position where they have the privilege of drafting someone who's injured for the year without it hurting them, Topic could well be this year's MPJr.

I'm very curious what Portland do with Williams and/or Ayton now. Clingan wasn't drafted to be 3rd string center. That logjams gotta clear now. I assume ye are eyeing up a guard to replace Brogdon but exactly what return ye get for whichever center ye move will be interesting.

Man, he's gonna have it so tough, not good enough to be a Laker and he will constantly be reminded of that. I think LeBron is gonna find out pretty quick that the idea of playing in the nba with his son sounds a lot better than it actually will be.

Has the misfortune of watching some of the "coverage" by ESPN of the draft. Jesus christ, it was awful. A guy in a doctors waiting room surrounded by god knows who. Then you have Malika not being able to pronounce anyones name, Stephen A Smith and Bob Meyers just picking at each other and don't get me started on the Bronny part. They had a commercial during the Celtics pick for god sake. Sooner ESPN goes bust the better but thats wishful thinking.
