Season starts tonight with Knicks and Celtics followed by Lakers and TWolves.

Will history be made early in the 2nd game?

I didn’t watch a single minute of that tonight and I’m sort of their target audience, not a great sign

LeBron says he was hoping he would feel good enough to play this morning, and that it was more important for him to prepare for the stretch run with the Lakers trying to make the playoffs than to push it and play today.

He says he hopes to be available Wednesday. https://t.co/PIHlrbe4xG

LeBron has his eyes on the real prize this year, another NBA title.

So this format isn’t working either.

Jokic and Luka wouldn’t try for that either

At least the young stars got Curry/Durant/Lillard trying for a few minutes there right now

WTF isn't Ant in there?

Would be so much fun. But realistically maclung would still win. He’s that good… at this one specific thing

Pro Bowl, All Star Game, etc all have the same problem.

You can’t incentivize these guys to care enough to risk injury for it.

The hockey format wouldn’t resonate the same in the NBA.

It would work if you had enough NBA players to fill teams from countries like Serbia and Slovenia (Jokic and Doncic would try then) but you don’t.

Only other country with enough players to fill an entire roster is Canada.

For as well played as the Missouri game was, this game has been equally shite.

Both of these teams look like complete ass.

DJ's left nut · 02-19-2025, 11:20 PM

101 three point shots attempted in this game.

32 have gone in.

With Lamelo, Lebron and Luca you have three of the most dynamic and exciting playmakers in the sport and this game has been nothing but bricklaying and perimeter passing.

This right here is what's killing the sport. This game is absolutely inexcusable and proof positive that they need to do something to change these rules. The game won't survive this shit. God it's bad.

DJ's left nut · 02-19-2025, 11:24 PM

Rui fully and finally manages to lose it for good. Figures that a couple missed free throws should put this pile of shit game to bed.

He's been doing his damndest to lose it all night. Good on him for finally getting it done.

This game didn't set the NBA back decades. It set humanity back centuries. It was the worst basketball I've seen this side of my 9 yr old daughters games. Frankly, the 7 yr olds are actually MORE cohesive than that was.
