The 2025-2026 NBA Season

Shay Given Alexander Arnold on fire.

Shay Given Alexander Arnold on fire.

Hes too good. But they barely even need him, they go 11 deep and they are all legitimately good players

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

Just fast forward to Detroit-New York OKC-San Antonio.

To quote a particularly bored poaster during the Celtics dominant title run...honk shoo mi-mi-mi

Ric has weighed in… can’t say he’s wrong either

Ric took my post seriously asking if the NBA is scripted.

The Wolves-Spurs is a 7 gamer though. They just matchup perfectly with the Spurs. You basically need 3 good bigs to have a chance in a series against the Spurs. Knicks-Spurs is the dream final for neutrals for the same reason.

The Spurs are a bunch of guards with Wemby.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Yes, buddy, just put your career at risk by listening to Ric Flair, of all people. Luka, please return when you're ready, not a moment before.

''Lame duck.'' If I were like that, I'd fire some shots at Ric, but I'm not like that.

Sengun couldn’t even beat the Lakers, but Gobert is definitely defying this poll right now.

 

[Better_Call_Raul]

Terrible news. The superstar Joel is unstoppable when he is on.
Joel trash-talked and triumphed over the heavily favoured Celtics.
The Knicks/76ers game is just no fun without Embiid.

Game is tied. I can’t predict the NBA sometimes.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Come on you Spurs.

 

[Oval_Solid]

Another 50 point blow out?

 

[Kralingen]

Perfect night to catch up on sleep.

This round sucks. Not a single close or compelling series.

 

[Better_Call_Raul]

Sengun couldn’t even beat the Lakers, but Gobert is definitely defying this poll right now.

Gobert is not defying anything. His atrocious free throw shooting almost outweighs his defensive genius.
Gobert's pathetic struggles at the line is potentially a huge liability in tight games. It nearly cost the Wolves Game 1.
It was extremely painful and uncomfortable watching Gobert struggle.

That offensive liability alone puts him at the top of this infamous "most over-rated" list.

How the hell does a guy getting paid the max shoot worse than a junior high player?

Does Gobert not have the discipline to improve his free throws?

But there is something far more concerning going on here.
Why would his fellow NBA players place him at the top of the overrated list? Tied with the villain Trae Young.

Clearly, Gobert, the Frenchman, must have an obnoxious, unlikeable personality that rubs his peers the wrong way.

Rudy Gobert just received a disrespectful label from his peers that doesn't add up

Rudy Gobert was voted the second-most overrated player in an anonymous player poll.

[Federer and Del Potro]

Honk. Shoo. Mi. Mi. Mi.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Nothing gets my spirits raised more than an offensive rebound.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

I get the feeling that Ric Flair thinks he's shooting an angle for Great American Bash 2026 or something. He's probably thinking Luka isn't injured.

 

[marc45]

didn't think it was real, but I guess it was...

The Cavaliers reportedly contacted the Bucks about a potential trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo, but Milwaukee wanted Evan Mobley and all of their available first-round picks, per
@JakeLFischer
“The Cavaliers, league sources say, contacted the Bucks about Giannis before the deadline as well … and were told it would take Evan Mobley and all of Cleveland's available draft capital to get it done. That's a trade construction that presumably would have Mobley stans scoffing, but it's a move that no shortage of rival executives I've discussed it with say they would make.”

 

[a10best]

Embiid updates?

Popovich started the DNPs in reg. season (rest for the playoffs) but guys are still hurt for the playoffs too !
Adam Silver sucks for lack of control.

 

[StefanV]

Euroleague is higher quality than NBA.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Wake up, Allen. Can't be doing that , my son.

 

[Kralingen]

Playoff Harden is one of the most pathetic athletes I’ve seen in my life honestly.

I'm glad you said it. My goodness,

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Let's go Lakers. Yeah.

 

[Kralingen]

What is this unserious court and jersey combo what are we doing here guys

It is the playoffs for ****s sake

 

[Say Chi Sin Lo]

Did Oldbron just pull his hammy trying to get up too quickly to argue a foul call? He looked like he slipped just getting up to move to the ref... haha

 

[nighthawkrr]

Playoff Harden is one of the most pathetic athletes I’ve seen in my life honestly.

They don’t call the same fouls he baits. Which is because of ratings

 

[Kralingen]

Let's go Lakers. Yeah.

OKC in second gear. Feel like it’s a matter of time until the Avalanche. Still, a better effort than expected

 

[Kralingen]

Holy moly. Shai just tried to rip Austin’s arm out of his socket. Flagrant one.

Disgusting player. Disgusting team. The Thunder sicken me. If this is the next decade of basketball, I don’t know how the sport survives.

Austin Reaves is trying to outdo James Harden in the playoff bum stakes.

 

[nighthawkrr]

Are we really pretending they are in the same tier here? One guy is Zverev and the other is Tommy Paul. One is absolutely maximizing his talent and the other is not able to close out the big ones.

 

[Kralingen]

lebron has given up.

Very sad to watch

 

[Kralingen]

Chet Holmgren is a human marvel. In my opinion the most underrated player in the NBA. He has top 10 impact. Just unbelievable optionality on both ends, he does everything, he can punish every single lineup thrown at him. Go small he’ll grab OREBs and win the rim battle. Go big w a C on him he’ll splash threes in their face and give an huge spacing advantage. He can play the 4 too, he can run a transition heavy system, he’s just an unbelievable luxury to have.

So so impressed by him. He truly is discount Wemby.

[Vcore89]

Since it's a losing proposition, let Dalton Knecht loose to fire the treys—teammates covering the defense—and see if this turns into a puncher's game.

 

[Vcore89]

Skip

https://twitter.com/x/status/2052605811617378528

Skip says positive things about LBJ only when . . .

And every chance he got, he'll trumpet Michael Jeffrey Jordan, the 6 for 6 goat.

 

[onehandbh]

Bronny was one of the most (statistically) effective players for the Lakers tonight. He had a +/- of -1 om 2 minutes of action.

 

[onehandbh]

Lakers' starting five outscored OKC's starting five 87 - 77 pts.

But... it took them 175 total minutes on the floor to do this. OKC's starting five was on the floor for 141 total minutes.
So OKC's starting five scored more points per minute than Lakers' starting 5.

 

[marc45]

I'm going to be able to watch Game 3 of the Cavs series tomorrow

I was just comparing their performances last night.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Hope Timberwolves turn up tonight instead of turning into Minnesota Wolverhampton again. But really, I'm just here to admire Wembanyama, Fox and co.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Good opening minute for uncle Philly.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Turning into a bit of a game here.

 

[Kralingen]

I really hate Stephon Castle. He is an OKC player through and through in style and intent (derogatory)

 

[Kralingen]

Wembanyama figured out offense is best played close to the basket and they’ve completely owned Minnesota ever since. Very excited for this WCF to come. Extremely so.

Minnesota is the Spurs kryptonite. They got bigs that can spread the floor. Game is very much in the balance still.

 

[Kralingen]

In hindsight, I think this will be Wembanyama’s Roland Garros 2005 moment.

It is abundantly clear he is the best to ever play this game and will go down as the greatest ever.

Was saying that yesterday when I was watching the game with people

He’s just a winning player but he looks really lame physically and is kind of mild so people dismiss also obviously buried beneath the wealth of success in Oklahoma from the amount of good players they have to the org as a whole
