Random NBA Observations 2024 - 2025

[Loose]

I'm dying to see how they play when the refs presumably swallow their whistle and allow more physicality in the playoffs

We barely get fta now top 2 bottom I'd love that. Our defense can be even more physical

People really just going with the dumbass narrative that isn't at all backed up by reality & loudly repeating it at every chance

Some reason people think cause one player gets fts whole team gets calls. We literally at the bottom for ftas lol

I am ready for the playoffs, West should be very fun. You can put the entire East 1st round on Telemundo outside of Bucks vs Pacers.

All things considered, that was a bad loss for the Clippers

At home, full strength, battling to get out the play-ins vs a team with no Chet, no JDubb, SGA shooting horrid, and nothing to play for.

They don't seem to have figured out the Simmons situation... because he played well but the minutes/depth chart seemed sporadic. Still got too many wings after all these years

 

[Primetime]

Tough loss for Houston too

Would've been nice to get that 10th one and more importantly win the tie-breaker all in one night.

4 of the next 5 are Atlanta, Utah 2x, and PHX, so gotta win those 4 and then see what happens vs LAL

Did Shai foul Zubac in the paint on that last play, yes or no?

Yeah. What does that have to do with your original point about refs swallowing their whistle affecting the Thunder though?

SGA is the only one that gets calls & their defense being allowed to be more physical will just help them even more.

Good, that's my point. Preference for a team when it comes to fouls goes out the window in the playoffs. The guy playing in the game tonight James Harden learned the hard way. Refs doing a 180 and swallowing their whistle in the playoffs whenever Shai is foul grifting like Primes James Harden will be a factor

Alright then, just going off the vibes I guess no point in looking at the numbers & living in reality

To show they a good team without Jokac.... Not great but competent. 4-6 ain't a great record on paper but it been a brutal schedule wit only Pelicans a bad team and Blazers 2nd worst team they played who a average team at least. Besides em its been Grizzlies, Rockets, Clippers, Celtics, Warriors, Lakers. Most teams even healthy wit they roster would do good to go .500 against that schedule.



Cac narratives stay changin goalpost to favor Jokac cause they know Shai finna win and got a huge lead. When Luka, Embiid or Giannis was puttin up better numbers they kept bringin up his record as tie breaker. Now that Shai numbers comparable and he a far better defender and record ain't close they tryna run wit that they a NCAA team without him or somethin which just not true. Anyone that thinks this a 17 team win team without him is a retard that shouldn't talk hoops.
