NBA 2023-24 Season Thread - Page 120 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

You really can't see how non-Knicks fans find Knicks fans to be absolutely insufferable?

I think as far as the team goes, most people do find the Knicks team to be likeable.

Yeah I guess I can see that, but I'm just talking about the team in a vacuum and they're very easy to root for. That's all I really care about. I find sports fans in general to be insufferable.

Assuming the rest of the team is roleplayers, doubt I'd think Sixers are top 3 in title equity if they added playoff P and got rid of like harris, oubre, melton. Maybe top 6-7.

At this point it is far more than a cliche to say Embiid gets hurt every year

Have you guys seen the figures on this new TV deal? Supposedly going to go from around 3B to 6B right off the bat with ESPN/Amazon and 1 of NBC/TNT probably averaging about 7-8B a year. Kicks in starting in '25-26

Could absolutely see NBA/LeBron throwing them a bone with a 41 y/o LeBron going to the Knicks or something insane to drive interest that first year

If the Knicks had won anything of consequence in the last 25 years, Knicks fans would be completely insufferable.

Thanks Jim Dolan!

Wait and see and dump when the next true superstar becomes available.

Booker and Nassir Little for Randle + Mitch + all the draft picks.

Yeah, but that's why people mostly hate teams. The Cowboys haven't won **** in 30 years and they are the most hated team in the NFL because of their fans and the media's obsession with them (with good reason since they are probably the most important NFL team).

You have to win a **** ton before people start hating your team for winning. People would really hate the Giants, for example, if they won a few more SBs and weren't beating the Patriots when winning.

Dame creates defensive issues for the Bucks that they just don't have when he's not playing. I realize that's obvious, but goddamn

Giannis gonna see the writing on the wall, and force his way to the Spurs to be with WEMBY who's going to have the DPOY award named after himself. Heck, Wemby should win the DPOY this year by most metrics anyway.

Pacers play better the tougher the team. Playing Dame, to say nothing of his defense, was probably a mistake.

NYK's defense tho...not sure what the answer is for that.

I can't decide which team I want to have a devastating series loss.

But, maximum pain seems to be coming.
