Around the League / Regular Season Thread (Upstairs Version)

[LeBowen]

This is like when Ben Shapiro said that people worried that their houses on the coast of Florida would soon be permanently underwater should just sell their houses.

Tbh, in both cases, there's always a buyer dumb enough to go for it.
If hits the fan in Milwaukee, Pelicans will definitely make a call.
They're in an identical situations to ours with the Hawks. They have Bucks' 2025 and 207 FRPs, 2026 swap.

Zion, Herb, 2025 MIL, 2027 MIL, 2026 swap, 2025 NOLA, 2028 swap, 2029 NOLA, 2030 swap, 2031 NOLA. (can't trade 2027 due to a swap with the Hawks)
That would be 5 FRPs, 4 swaps and if Bucks decide to tank, Herb can surely get them at least one more FRP and swap.

DJ, Hawkins, Alvarado, Ingram, Murphy III still on the roster. They'd just need a legit big and to get rid of CJ's contract in order to extend Ingram.

Nets beating the Cavs at home, wow, didn't see it coming

They play freely and have scorers all over the place

Someone (RC_Drunkford?) made fun of me when I said earlier this season that, Wemby aside, I envy their roster. I haven't changed my mind...

They have everything we miss

Makes sense. Cuz it didn't happen.

Doesn't change the fact that you were so eager to dunk on some other poster that you literally read the scoreboard wrong, then created an entire narrative around it and confidently posted it.

Like Pop says, don't skip any steps.

WFT are you talking about? Are u drunk or something?

The point was just that the Nets have nice players I wish we had and overall a better roster (minus Wemby) than the Spurs.

Chill

The Bucks are the ones that'll end up with Cooper Flagg at this pace

Their upcoming games are really easy, it's false hope time. They'll probably go 8-2 against tanking teams.

Pacers look really good, outplayed the Knicks.

RIP Chet

[lefty20]

Got some good match-ups on tonight, lead by Dubs v Thunder and Mavs v Nuggets.

[lefty20]

RIP Chet

Just tuned into the game.

What happened? He get injured?

[Raven]

chet looked in a lot of pain, wouldn't surprise me if he broke his hip

[Robz4000]

Just tuned into the game.

What happened? He get injured?

Fell on his leg and couldn't put any weight on it. Had to be carried to the locker room.

. Wow and just like that

[heyheymymy]

Damn hate to hear that even if I’m not really a Chet fan

[Mugen]

Looked like a bad hip bruise tbh. Still painful but not a season ender.

Ouch, that was a hard fall. But He’ll be alright.

Oof! Hopefully just a bruise and no structural damage to the hip.

Yeah I was joking

Pacers and Halliburton looked bad a week ago, I'll wait one more month to have a idea on tue levels.

I'm a bit stunned by the weakness of the Eastern conf tbh, I thought they'd be much better.

The 5th in East would be 12th in the West...

[Pauleta14]

RIP Chet

I thought u meant he was posterised.

Looks like the hip but he can't put pressure on his right leg

[Pauleta14]

Just tuned into the game.

What happened? He get injured?

[Mr. Body]

Chet is built like a broomstick golem.

[mystargtr34]

Surprised Chet didn’t take a chunk out of the hardwood with his skeleton ass landing on it like that

[spursparker9]

Bad fall for Chet. It seems like his usual jump trying to contest vertically but the momentum of Wiggins' upper body just knock into him and fall awkwardly.

Get well soon but the OKC really need to be nerf.

[Mr. Body]

Spoelstra is a goddamn genius.
