2025-2026 NBA SEASON DISCUSSION

Brooks having a hell of a game

 

Oso Ighodaro is +52 in 26 minutes.

 

The 4th quarter box score of Pacers/Suns shows 27-14 Suns. What it doesn't reflect is the Suns outscored them 27-3 at one point and led 133-87.

The Pacers scored the final 11 points to make the score more respectable and "only" lose by 35.

 

Have y’all seen the numbers Jalen Johnson has been putting up lately and his numbers overall on the season?

Trae Young isn’t the best player on his team

 

OKC has a 103 defensive rating…2nd place is Denver at 109.4

I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a massive defensive gap in the NBA

 

Yeah, this is REALLY crazy stuff.

It's even crazier when you consider their best defensive player (J-Dub) hasn't played one game yet and their 2nd, 3rd and 4th best defenders have all missed several games each.

Considered as a group, their top 10 players leave everyone else way behind.

 

Might as well shut it down and give them the trophy .

 

What? Steve Francis?

 

Well, they're better than expected, but their wins so far :

Kings (4-8)
Utah (4-8)
Spurs (8-3) Good win. Wemby even played.
LAC (3-8) No Kawhi. No Harden. Beal impersonating a basketball player.
LAC (3-8) No Kawhi. Beal injured halfway through the game.
New Orleans (2-9) lol
Dallas (3-9)
Indiana (1-11)

They're about to run into the following schedule. Let's see how they do : Hawks, Blazers, TWolves, Spurs, Rockets, Kings, OKC, Denver, Lakers, Rockets, TWolves, GSW, GSW, LAL.

I'm not saying they're not better - they probably are, but let's see them face some decent teams. P.S. -- I miss Dillon Brooks.

 

May as well concede best record, but in the WCFs against the Rockets, anything can happen.

 

I didn't watch either game, but gotta give props to the Pistons for beating the Bulls and Sixers the last two games with Cade, Ausar and Jalen Duren not playing. They are in a very good place right now at 11-2.

 

Holiday has committed two very stupid, unnecessary fouls in the act of shooting. Ime needs to get him outta there.

 

Kon is the best pick the sad Charlotte rebuild has ever made.
