The Official 2026/2027 NBA Season Thread

Still Knicks in 5 until further notice.



They beat one good team, when they were coming off a sweep and the other team beat the defending champs in 7 games. Teams who won in a sweep were 20-4 against teams that went 7 games. Now 21-4.

NBA desperately needs realignment in the postseason. How many years have we been hearing about players wanting to be in the east for an easier path?

Until it happens, I’m not going to respect any “champion” coming out of the junior conference.

It’s like a pornstar durability contest between a woman coming off of the Bonnie Blue challenge the night before vs a chick who was at home with her boyfriend the night before.
 


Draymond Green says the Jaylen Brown situation threw him for a loop:

“I’m just like all of a sudden a guy being smart is an issue. Like, by the way, I think I’m pretty smart individual. I think I got a pretty decent head on my shoulders. Jaylen Brown is brilliant. I don’t pretend to be that smart. I don’t want anybody to think I think I’m that smart, but he is like he actually is that smart. And when I say smart, right, like as you know, there’s book smarts, there’s street smarts, there’s so many different type of smarts when you’re talking smart. But the smart that Jaylen Brown is, he’s book smart. He’s street smart. The things that he knows and that he understands.”

 
I understand what he has done for the value of the franchise and that he is actually underpaid. But if he sincerely wants to win another title as he claims he does, he can’t also take up more cap space than any other player in the league.
If that dude really wants to compete like he claims he does, he can’t take up more cap space than any other player in the league at an age where he isn’t capable of even playing a full season.

I’m literally not able to post in the other thread for no reason at all other than Mean Girls bullshit. OP asked Lexx to ban me from the thread and he did.

This is the thread for the upcoming season. Last season is over. And I can’t post in last year’s thread so I’m posting in this one for the offseason, which makes more sense to me anyway.

I’m not going to ask for anyone in this thread to be banned from posting in it or treat it like it’s “mine.” :dunno:
 




Athletes and ex-athletes have people walking around hating them because someone took their words out of context for clicks.

Fisher catching strays about his coaching career and family life from Bron lovers when he said nothing bad about the man— in fact was backing him up. :smh:

I think I might rather have Embiid than AD.

Embiid is younger and has played about 20 more games over the last 3 years. AD is also a longer commitment, looking for a 4 year extension.



I think the Warriors should be the team getting picks in this scenario. And if I’m them, unless an AD trade guarantees LeBron, Embiid is the higher ceiling risk, should come with picks rather than require them, and two less years of high salary commitment. They should go after him.

Wemby can sacrifice but not Steph. Guess he wants it more than the golfer. :smh:



Wembanyama decided on the 25% maximum instead of the 30% supermax escalators to $303M, after he and the Spurs went through multiple frameworks. A major decision for the All-NBA star and Defensive Player of the Year entering his fourth season.

San Antonio worked in close partnership with Wembanyama and his representatives, offering the full super max and different variations of extensions. But Wembanyama ultimately chose a contract sacrifice rooted in giving him and the organization increased ability to build a sustained title contender around
