2024-2025 Around the NBA Thread

[Mainstreet]

I wouldn't say "severely" but yes, I agree they have fewer star/near star quality players than most playoff teams have. And they will likely be on the outside looking in come playoffs unless Kawhi shocks us all.

What I wouldn't give to have Zubac in a Suns uniform. He is a player I have always wanted for Phoenix.

He looks like Fraiser

Omg that’s hideous. I’d be pissed if I were Wade.

DA is still DA… 3 FTA’s in 4 games.

Wow. They honored Kratos in Miami?

It’s really amazing. And bad

That was my initial reaction, but after learning Wade was hands on and saw the face mold before the statue was even being constructed I now would be pissed if I were a Heat official. They didn't see it until the reveal and now that got that hideous thing in front of their arena.

Are you kidding me?! Wade signed off on that monstrosity? What does he see in the mirror?!

Why don't they get better artists to do these things?

Good question. That Pat Tillman statue outside the Big Toaster in Glendale looks like some random dude with his hair on fire.

 

[Covert Rain]

I know that artists like to have creative license and do their own thing but it's not like the technology doesn't exist to AT LEAST make these faces look spot on while they are doing it.

They're going to let Wade out of carbon freeze for the playoffs.

It's supposed to honor the player, not the idiosyncracies of some random sculptor. It could easily be made to look like him. It looks like some kid in a junior high art class did it.

Maybe it was that.

Warriors are moving Jonathan Kuminga to the bench tonight.

He wasn't benched they had no Steph, Wiggins or Melton so they shook up the lineup to get better balance. Kuminga had a nice game, as did Hield who had 19 in the 4th so far.

They also found a player in Lindy Waters, kid can shoot and is big enough to be a factor on the glass. They were down 20 and are now up 15 with about 2 minutes left

 

[GatorAZ]

The Pelicans are another hypothetical team. You can’t game them seriously.

 

[Russ Smith]

Yves Missi is intriguing, long and athletic but my goodness he's going to kill someone if he keeps throwing elbows. He hit 3 Warriors in the face in just the 2nd half including nailing hield right in the jaw, could not believe the refs didn't call a flagrant on it was blatant.

There's a difference between keep your elbows up to protect the ball, and try to hit someone in the face with an elbow.
