2022-2023 NBA Regular Season Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
What a night in the NBA.

When a team scores 144 and it isn’t the high score for the evening, not even within 10 points.
 
This Philly vs. Golden State game is tape on how to beat Philly. They're putting Embiid in the pick and roll over and over. It's wearing him down and he has no jump shot because of fatigue.
 
I can see a world where Kyrie retires. Gets his land out West and starts building his society. Salut!
 
He’s so full of shit.

Imagine losing a crucial game and then your new teammate goes on social media talking about how at peace he is.

He uses this bullshit to shield himself from deserved criticism and/or make himself interesting. In reality, he just threw mysticism, hustle culture, Judeo-Christian, Norse references, and probably other shit I don’t even recognize all in one post.

These are hyper-competitive people playing within a team concept. Nobody wants that shit after losing. Such a snake oil salesman.

You want to be a competitor in a team sport, do that. You want to deal in mysticism and lead a cult, go do that shit somewhere else.

God, he rubs me the wrong way. I cannot stand people like this.

He really is an enigma. Wondering if there is a precedent. An athlete, coming off a Championship with a presumably great guy image. Heel turn in a matter of months, and he's been doubling down multiple times a year. No way he gets more than a 1 year contract going forward. I'd be very surprised if Cuban throws more at him, unless he believes he can be some Kyrie-whisperer.

Gonna be fun to watch that's for sure. Might be remembered more for his craziness than hitting the game winning shot in Game 7 of the GD NBA Finals.

I feel like if there ever was a player, it was some ABA guy. Those guys were wild. Free plug for Loose Balls by Terry Pluto for a great read about the ABA
