2021-2022 NBA Season Thread • Page 754

What is the purpose of the mid-season tournament - for players and teams? Is it totally separate from the 82 game regular season or somehow tied into the regular season? I don’t understand it at all and seems like something that will blow up as soon as a major player gets hurt in it. Unless all the major players would sit out because wtf is the point of the tournament?

 

So Bradley Beal can try to win a ring.

 

Knicks fans on twitter drooling over the thought of pairing Mitchell/Brunson together ignoring the fact that backcourt would give up 100 points every night.

 

i just want trades, man.

 

This is an incredible tweet

 

dont show @ncarrab that

 

I believe Danny Ainge made a call about that at some point, sure

 

dont think theres a market for conley out there unfortunately.

 

Never gonna happen.

 

All I want is something to happen, so bored of the update: no update posts and useless arguments

Give me something with Ayton at least

 

I said for the players/teams!!! I know why rich old assholes want it lol

 

It’s gonna end up looking like summer league except for teams benches. There’s no incentive for title contenders to play their stars even more.

 

I think Utah exploring Conley for Sexton was Danny calling Cleveland to offer, and then getting shot down. Cleveland really doesn't need Conley, especially at his current salary.

 

And if you’re trading Sexton you could get a much better, actually good return.

 

Cavs just have no use for Conley. Some team that's on the cusp could use him (not at this price point tho) or a contender that needs an extra piece.

Not sure what his value is when he's due 22m a year. Teams with cap space aren't going to want him until he's an expiring.

 

Trade him for Westbrook, probably only team where he’s an upgrade

 

RE: In Season Tournament.

CJ McCollum was announcing the Cavs Hornets game today and they asked him about the tournament and CJ (who I believe is high up in the player’s union) said the league hasn’t proposed anything yet to the players and he/they have no idea what it would look like, but he didn’t sound too geeked up on it and made a good point, teams may find losing early in the tournament as advantageous because it would give them 6-8 days of extra rest. He said winning teams would take advantage of that.

 

Again, I cannot think of anything dumber.

 

Keegan Murray significantly outplaying chet you love to see it

 

Let's go!
