That would be a dubnjoy 900 for 500 inductee special.

Cooper Flagg has reclassified from 2025 to the incoming college class of 2024, which makes him the new favorite to be picked No. 1 in the 2025 NBA draft.
Flagg entered the summer ranked No. 2 in the ESPN 60 for 2025, but dominated throughout June and July and is now widely considered the top prospect regardless of class.
Duke has been considered the favorite to sign Flagg, but UConn, Kansas and Kentucky are also involved.



Let the tankin' begin!


Flagg will turn 18 in late December of his freshman year of college.

Cooper may be the best H.S. Prospect since Lebron.

You're n idiot. Pau is one of the best centers ever. Won everything everywhere. Was a beautiful ball player.

Yeah one of the greatest ever while never been even once all nba first team and only 4 time all nba .
Your story checks out ….

His per rating is around 21-22 , this year is like around the 5th best center in the league which what he was always (or worst) except 4 years where he did a bit better .
Great reliable Center yeah sure .
One of the great w.e

Are all the top 5-10 in the leagues should get their shirts retired ?
Some bad team yeah ok maybe but the lakers ?
I guess Anthony Davis is next shrug .

Are you sure you get it? Because you just keep quoting a bunch of NBA stats

There are people who did less in the NBA alone than him who got in and then you add up the international accolades, he was always going to get in, weird thing to be mad about

What are other recent examples of players winning 2 rings being the clear 2nd best player and not getting in?

Agree but like I said in the beginning there isn’t many imo .
When u take out international accomplishments .
But possible I’m wrong .
Let’s say I have far less problem him joining HoF compare to his shirt being retired for example .
Surely we don’t take into account international accomplishments about numbers being retired ?

Why wouldn't we? If non-sports accomplishments factor into that, why should we ignore international play?

FWIW, talking about if/how international accomplishments matter for the HoF feels pretty pointless in a class that incudes the 1976 US Women's Olympic Team? They literally got in for nothing but international play.

Speaking of international games. Spain vs. USA is today and so far its pretty good

Yup. I just don't get how someone like Steve Kerr finds the drive to do those international tournaments. he's also won it all as a player and as a coach (both for USA & NBA), maybe it's just me but I'd just enjoy being rich at his age rather than going through the summer grind in Spain

I stand corrected .
Seem My threshold was too high .
After little research i found out as an example Jeff hornacek ( not a bad player obv) number retired by the jazz.
So yeah gasol did enough ….

Same drive as Gregg popovich ?

Embiid to the Knacks???

Lol Harden calling Morey a liar and saying he'll never be a part of any organization with him is pretty direct.

Beats getting fat again I guess.

Is Harden the biggest crybaby in NBA history?

Thought Chet looked great in a pro Summer game vs KD, Trey, others. He's always had good aggression, tough, smooth...which to look at him you wouldn't think. Beard looks good.

idk about that but he's quite a fat loser


trade him to siberian league or whatever

It’s not harden the cry baby .
It’s the entire generation is .

Do I even want Embiid on the Knicks?

Rumored trade is Mitchell Robinson, RJ, Quickley, Grimes, 2024 first rounder, 2026 first rounder, and Washington + Milwaukee 1st rounders. Personally I'd want to hold onto Grimes and give up another pick, and possibly a pick swap if need be. Grimes is possibly due for a great upcoming season, passes the ball with quick decisions, defends quite well, and is a perfect backcourt mate with Brunson. Knowing Morey he'll drive a hard bargain so Embiid won't come cheap, which makes me think Knicks will have to include Grimes.

So with Embiid/Brunson that makes Randle a 3rd option, which is what suits him best. Plus you can stagger him with the 2nd unit where he could conceivably feast.


Edit: I don't mind dealing IQ because we're going to have to pay him "good starter" money to what? be our 6th man?

Morey kinda sounds like the biggest simp who ever lived

Lardass is also a born loser

Kinda seems like the two are destined to do this forever

Chet got that diamond sharp basketball look about his game.

I can't wait to bet OKC win totals OVER!

Morey and Harden should have a fat off.

I'm setting the o/u for Harden's weight on opening night at 257.5. He's listed at 220 but probably closer to 227 iyam.

yeah, just like orange man is 227


betting my life on the over

I'm curious as to how fat Harden would get if the Sixers just don't trade him. Are we talking approaching 3 bills?

man's gonna take a run at joey chestnut
