2024-2025 Around the NBA Thread

[Hoop Head]

Cavs win it. They're 8-0 now. They have a strong lineup. As long as Donovan Mitchell buys in and plays as part of the system they could go far. Even if he doesn't, they can add some quality depth trading him.

Garland, Mitchell, Okoro, Mobley, Allen with Niang, Sam Mitchell, Caris LaVert, and Ty Jerome (yes that Ty Jerome) makes a solid rotation.

Ty Jerome has turned it on this year. Hes avenging 10 ppg, 3 assists, 2 rebounds, 1 steal, and shooting 57% and 50% from 3 in 15 minutes a night. Only 8 games but great so far. No one game boosts those averages.

Oh, and AD got injured again.

Yeah, I thought I detected a sunrise yesterday.

 

[Superbone]

Oh, and AD got injured again.

I saw him go down but then he finished out the game.

 

[Hoop Head]

AD is always injured. He has brief moments of confidence that allows him to play.

Big blow for Denver. He's arguably the 2nd most important player on the team.

The suspension will begin when he is deemed "ready to play" and is going to cost him a little over $1m..

whatever's going on with Embiid is very strange this off-season.

What's to stop him from being "ready to play" three games earlier than he really is?

 

[Hoop Head]

Our Ty Jerome?

Yeah. He's playing off ball more. He's a good playmaker but far too slow to be a PG. He mainly plays as a SG but also sees time as a SF, kind of like Grayson. It works for him and Cleveland.

What Jokic has been doing for them is a carrying job for the ages. By far the worst bench in the league.

It’s early but most surprising are the warriors.

And we can probably say the Jazz and Blazers are done.

It will be interesting to see how the Warriors play at Boston.

Since both the Suns and Warriors are smallish, they may be able to learn from each other.
