šŸ€ Hoos in the NBA 2024-25

This has been the worst 7 game finals ever. Two meh teams, only a couple of competitive games.

I disagree with that, but at the same time you didn’t say anything that’s not true.

I enjoyed this year’s finals a lot, but also had zero attachment or interest in the finals at the same time. It’s been a long strange trip

The new Larry O trophy looks like shit. I don’t remember if they had it last season but whoever ordered that revamp should be fired.

Playoffs this year simply turned into staying injury free - okc , Knicks (sort of) and Houston were the only teams to be healthy when they stopped playing.

From top to bottom I don’t recall a playoff more impacted by injury than this years.

19 was rough in the Finals but this uear multiple series with multiple teams being affected by franchise altering injuries never seen it.

Poor mechanical foundations and ignoring proper treatment when needed.

Hali is pretty obvious what happened it feels like.

Yeah, I kept trying to watch it but lost interest quickly because it was simply bad basketball. Granted, there was some good defense that I did enjoy that contributed to some of the ugliness, but the teams lost patience and settled for a lot of stupid shots instead of working to find good shots.

Trey Murphy might be on the move to the Celtics (for Porzingis and picks). TBD

If the Pelicans actually get that, UVA needs to hop on the ā€œWe produce players worth more in trade value than Luka Doncicā€ ASAP

Wow the NBA trade market is crazy.

Celtics were facing ~$260 mil in tax penalty alone before the Holiday trade, I think. Still $18 mil over the 2nd apron post-trade.

Not a real site…

Its central not cental lol the tweet of what thepelicans are asking for is real

Yep still have work to do - although now they could play the year out over the apron and as of now they have 2 large expiring contracts with Porzingis and Simons…
Also likely to trade Hauser into a trade exception to get relief from his small $10m salary that would save them an additional $80 million in taxes.
