Apologies if there is already a thread for the 25/26 NBA season.

I was just about to post this. Happy for Malcolm to get another run. Glad Thiebs isn’t there to burnout what’s left of his legs.
Also this has to be Brogs best chance to get to a Finals outside of that season in Boston right? Aren’t the Knicks the only Eastern Conference team still healthy?

Malcolm is one of two NBA players to win both Rookie of the Year and Sixth Man of the Year. Can you name the other (without looking it up)?
Extra credit: who is the only NBA rookie to win Sixth Man of the Year?

I don’t know the answer, but I’ll guess Derrick Rose and Emeka Okafor….???

Nope and nope. Good guesses though

My guesses: Jamal Crawford (I know he has 6th man, maybe got ROY?) and Grant Hill (maybe got a 6th man at the end of his career?).
Oh, misread. Thought it was two other dudes to win ROY and 6th man. Either way, I stand by my probably incorrect guesses.

KG has one of the wildest career arcs that I’ve seen.
Exhibit 10 means he’s just in for camp with the potential to sign for something else?

No shit! That’s awesome
Was watching those clips of him balling out recently, and was like, tbh, forget about coaching. He’s at the peak of his hoops playing ability.

It’s a camp deal but typically leads to a g-league deal at least

Absolutely get it all in while you can would be my advice. There’s only so many reps in the legs and once they’re gone they’re gone.
Okay that’s what I thought. Nice tryout opportunity at the very least. I’d imagine with the Pacers essentially tanking this upcoming season they are open to have some random lineups.

Pacers were like, “kid we love you, but our players need at least a BA in multidisciplinary studies”.

I need an Achilles injury tracker to follow the NBA this year…

Exhibit 10 is a contract clause that lets the team pay a bonus of up to 75K if the player is cut, signs with the G-League affiliate and spends at least 60 days on the roster.

Does this mean he’s no longer an assistant? Or go do the camp thing and if it doesn’t work out come back?
I wouldn’t think gleague would be interesting given he’s done that already and left for richer Europe. Maybe too hard on family or maybe just realized he missed it too much.
