Random NBA Observations 2023 - 2024

[Flex Luger]

What happened to the Suns depth they supposedly had?

 

[firemanBk]

Suns are fraudulent just like they were last year
Depending on 3 players to stay healthy who can't stay healthy is not gonna work
Best part was their fans were actually acting like they built a good bench in the offseason
That bench is ass
Also Nurkic is fukking terrible. I get it was time to move Ayton but Nurkic is just way worse

 

[Buckeye Fever]

Damn, can the Suns big 3 at least give them 50 games where all 3 play???!!!!

the bench and support guys aren't even playing bad. booker and beal gotta clock in at some point

 

[UpAndComing]

Cavs should have upgraded from Bickerstaff in the offseason

Damn is he really that bad of a coach?

depends who you ask

depends who you ask

So CACs hate him I'm guessing. Are they mad about how last years playoffs turned out?

The past couple of years have explicitly shown that depth>>>a "Big 3".

You're not surviving 82 games with just 3 top talents and patchwork everywhere else. You need a solid 10-12 contributors nightly to ensure a good record/seeding as well as having insurance if your star(s) play poorly.

I think CBA changes have also lessened the effectiveness of a big 3 as well

Still don’t understand why the Bucks didn’t hire Nurse. Especially since they knew they wanted to improve their offense. Nurse is like the most sophisticated offensive guru in the league. Their offense looks clunky as hell and that’s to be expected with a Rookie head coach…especially one that chased his offensive coordinator out the building before they even played a game.

I was pushing for them to hire Nurse or Ime. Seems Giannis chose Griffin at the end of the day. Season’s still early but Nurse seemed like a layup especially since his teams usually have the ability to make Giannis ineffective with his defenses. Why not bring on the guy who figured Giannis out and can bring variety to their offense?

Ayton definitely is better, I really feel like they just don't like Ayton the man, rather than Ayton the player

Anybody going to the Julius Randle show in May? I hear tickets selling out quickly

he's just on the black coach clock. he's done a great job turning that team into one with winning expectations on a nightly basis. right now, individual guys there need to get healthy and elevate their game. but the question is already turning into "is bickerstaff the guy long-term?" instead of health, guys stepping up, etc

Ayton definitely is better, I really feel like they just don't like Ayton the man, rather than Ayton the player

ayton is on a team that doesn't have a care in the world and he's still running from the ball

These Nick Nurse 76ers have been looking very good.

The Suns look awful...why is Bradley Beal out again?

Man was playing fine in the preseason but all of sudden the season starts and he's been riding the bench since laughing and grinning. That's a shame.
