Screw the in-season tournament

Just like the Spurs won the lottery, this NBA Mid - season tournament is FIXED.

Im not a Pelicans fan but I have never seen them play this bad. NBA needs the FAKERS to win

 

Didn't expect Lakers to win (before I saw the officiating in their games). I am 100% convinced the NBA wants Lebron to win the inaugural (irrelevant) IST as a chance to drive the narrative and create fake prestige.

 

We all know Lebron is getting this.

Lol the NBA looks pathetic.

 

lerbon is such a legend. leading his rag tag team of nobodies to a tournament win. and at this age too! goat.

 

Cerbon is also leading head honcho Silver and his ref team to better times.....

 

he'd make such a goat commish too and hopefully one day an owner. maybe jenny buss will sell a minority stake and eventually he'll buy 51%

 

The only thing that can stop it is if Taylor Swift starts dating Obi Toppin and sits court-side for the Final.

 

Pacers v. Lakers is such a win for the NBA. Old v. New. Lebron v. Haliburton. It’s perfect.

 

I didn't give a damn about this mickey mouse bubble rigged tournament.

 

Casinos and strippers would be a good theme....

 

Just the way they SET it up....Fixed

 

Add another day of no games for this Sunday- that’s at least 4 days with no games this early in the season including Election Day, Thanksgiving, last Sunday and now this Sunday. this is the worst scheduling I have ever seen.

 

on the contrary, I liked this schedule because it gave us much needed time to practice and tighten our game plans...

 

Although I’m talking about the overall league schedule and a slate of 4 nights with no games scheduled in less than 50 days since the season started , the Rockets are now only finding their groove after a 3 day break in their own schedule.

They had two 3 game losing streaks after a 4 day and 3 day break, respectively. (they are 2-6 in games with 3+ nights off)

I’m really looking forward to this stretch through the All Star Break starting Monday

 

Lebron did a lot in the league but ready for his era to end. One of the most obnoxious presences in the history of the league.

 

I can't stand LeBron crying foul every time he loses the ball or misses a contested shot.

 

I hope the NBA is happy. Living out west even the Jazz and Suns fanbases are not impressed by the officiating work the NBA did to give Lebron this chance. But once again the Lakers cholo wagon is lowriding high

 

On the IST, I opted not to watch the finals, as it likely would just upset me.



On the schedule
Most teams have played about 21-23 games. We're at 19 league's lowest. ~Two+ behind. but at some point our team will have to make it up through a more crunched future schedule.
