2024/25 NBA Regular Season Thread

Recommended Posts

No post about the Luka trade in the regular season thread? FIrst!

LOL!

Anyhow as far as the Magic are concerned Luka is gonna take Reeves spot and they need a center. Would you give up Goga for Reeves?

WCJ is almost the exact amount of Reeves contract but we can't trade him because of that lame extension.

I was also thinking Dallas has a lot if Centers now if we are interested in going that route.

Imagine if 3 years from now, Paolo keeps elevating his game and is a 25 year old All-NBAer, and we deal him for a 31 year old Bam Adebayo and a 2032 1st. The year after we make the nba finals. That’s essentially what the Mavs just did. I’m sick for their fanbase.

It's a business move. Guys this is related to the Fox rumors as well, just way bigger. 

Reading between the lines, from the things their GM Nico said after the trade , it's about the supermax. 

I flat out think they were scared to max him out. Nothing else makes sense.

 

Edit. look at Philly. I think Philly is screwed.

It's a good business move to make your team much worse and potentially miss a lot of TV revenue from playoff appearances?  To go from NBA finals contenders to probably a first round exit team?  I just find that hard to believe, even if Luka's contract costs them 20-30M more per year.

If you're scared to pay a 26 year old MVP candidate the max money then you shouldn't own an NBA franchise. 

Completely agree, and as I posted above, I can't imagine it makes any financial sense either, unless they're a heck of a lot better with Davis than I expect them to be.

How did The Lakers only give up one pick btw!? That should take two first round picks and 2 swaps.  Worst trade in NBA history that would only happen for The Lakers.
