}~~~> Official 2024/2025 NBA Thread<~~~{ the finals are here East Pacers vs West OKC 2-1)

All these entitled muthafuckas hurt because two teams who didn’t ring Chase made it to the Finals. None of our teams was good enough it’s just what it was. Good for these two teams they did it right. Ratings gonna suck but I don’t care happens in every sport can’t have winners based on who gets ratings.

I hate how fans act like some teams should never make the Finals. And as far as Market Size goes, the Spurs have won 5 championships in my lifetime and that’s not a desirable market by any means.
 
Them tix prices completely changed.. them merch sales completely changed.. nobody outside Cali was a golden state warriors fan b4 that championship yr.. that’s what he mean.. Cali has a huge population so that team was probably getting hometown money but outside that shit nada
He said small market which means one thing. Media. Warriors had a following from when they were in Philly , also the run tmc era.
 
They need a GM first....Booth was terrible and still don't understand why they didn't fire him sooner...

Trey will be healthy by the start of the season
Aight so hear me out on Booth what made him terrible? Did he not compile the talent there? Or was he post Jokic and Murray?

He was handing out player options like it was candy. Russ, Saric, and Zeke all got player options. Why? Made zero sense

Then he didn’t really build depth well via the draft and didn’t find a good replacement for KCP. Braun a solid player but terrible defender.

Then it was a disconnect between him and the coach. That’s always a disaster and I hate they resigned the interim coach before hiring a GM. Just bad process

Just my thoughts on him
 
Giannis makes 57 next year. For salaries to match they'll have to trade, Giannis & probably Pat Connaughton for Scotty, RJ & picks. No way they're Bucks are taking Quickly at 32. Or Giannis & Kuzma for Scotty, BI & picks.

Either way the Raptors aren't winning anything with Giannis.
I agree and Giannis is like me, he ain’t trying lose too much money.

I could be wrong, but when you play for Toronto you have to pay American and Canadian taxes. I mean if you making millions it doesn’t matter, but stilll lol

ABC cheap as hell lol I ain’t even mad at him though

Damn I like Braun. I’d rather have him then KCP.

It don’t make sense to trade away Barnes and Barrett…..

Quickley, Barnes, Poetl and Barrett…pick two of them and picks…..trading for Gianni’s gonna be tough if you over the salary cap.
 


I won’t even get my hopes up. But if by some miracle this did happen……

Smoke….Is……Up:furious: :lol:

We’re trading everybody like a bunch of full blown idiots Zion getting accused of rape, people can’t stay healthy
The problem is the medical staff not the players
It’s gone be me,@Mask ,@Duece and a few other bgol posters starting this season
I hate this franchise sometimes
 
“Don’t forget where you came from” Don’t act like Golden State wasn’t a “tiny market” before Steph came through and changed y’all whole shit. Casual fans didn’t give a damn about the Warriors unless it was the “We Believe” Warriors and some didn’t care then. A lot of casuals didn’t even know what the fuck city “Golden State” played in.

Pipe down
Actually that’s not true! GS would stay selling out games :” The "Run TMC" era (1985-1997) saw the Warriors average 19,631 fans per game, the highest in team history, and they sold out nearly every home game during that season. “

Their fans just kept being disappointed and ownership was terrible..
