2024 NBA Season

[agustina2]

That's correct, both the Suns and Bucks are lucky that their opponent has an injured star, in the first round, I'm sure the Suns will not be able to win against the Lakers if Davis was healthy.

So you say; Raptors championship is a fraud too? Stop this discrediting. I thought you guys are NBA viewers for long.

If the Nets are healthy, the Bucks will adjust. If the Lakers are healthy, the Suns will adjust.

There's no 100% assurance that these eliminated teams if healthy will beat instead the Bucks and Suns. You are just creating speculations based on the big names on the teams since it's Lebron, AD, Durant, Irving, Harden. These are just normal players too they are beatable.

Edit:  unbeatable to beatable lol typo

You mean that they can be beaten too.Its just these kind of reasoning is on someone who couldnt just accept defeat or loss of his favorite team and its clear that he isnt just really that appreciating into those  teams
that who had able to go into the finals.

Adjustments would be made and they wont really be making this far if they werent good in the first place and its just a  non sense reasoning or words that we do have here.

If Giannis will win another championship, then I will have to admit that he is already in level with Lebron James and Kobe Bryant, for now, there are people who are still in doubt that the Bucks will not win a championship if they face a healthy Nets or a healthy Lakers/Clippers in the NBA Finals.

Those people that are in doubt of Bucks didn't managed to see their progress through all of these years when Giannis gets in. Although it's not necessary at all but you get to see what they've been for the past years.

And if Giannis wins another title next season, comparisons will be made for sure but it will always be Giannis as him and the same from LBJ.

[Dave1]

What kind you say about Giannis post game interview, he somewhat throw some on KD and Lebron winning rings with other super stars (super teams).

So would you rather have Giannis 1 ring against KD 2 with the GSW or Lebron's 2 with Miami?

It's a whole lot of debate that I have been hearing around social media now.

For me all rings are created equal, it's not the first time that we have heard about this super teams.

If I remember correctly, the Boston Celtics has super teams in the 60's, Bill Russell, Bob Cousy, KC Jones and other future hall of famers.

So for me, I don't have an issue with KD joining the GSW for a title run, or James teaming up with DWade in Miami.

I think Giannis has to respect Lebron and Durant, they join a team because they want to win a championship and it's not illegal, if he does not want to be criticized, he should not talk sh*t about other superstars, did Giannis want to hear that he only won because his team was playing against an injured Brooklyn Nets?

It's not illegal, but I don't know if you are familiar with CP3 news before that he wanted to join the Lakers and Kobe but it was stop by then commissioner David Stern,

On Dec. 8 in 2011, then NBA Commissioner David Stern vetoed a three-team trade that would have sent Chris Paul to the Los Angeles Lakers.[/quote]

So Stern vetoed, but we will never know the real reason for it, but if it proceed that time, maybe CP3 has a ring already, just saying.

Of course Giannis respects both Durant and Lebron, but it was a obvious verbal jabs on super teams.

Yeah this was quite the news before. Those pair could have won two or three together.

About Giannis feedback on joining super teams, he's got every right to say that. It might feel offensive to the fans of those players but he has a valid point. He stayed patient with the Bucks until the management was able to put pieces around him unlike other players who are unhappy with getting bounced in playoffs and finals.

[jamyr]

Well, for those that have been feeling regret and think that they're just lucky because of the injury.

It's part of the game, whether the superstars got injured and that lessened the teams winning power. It's part of it, and what's done is done and congratulations to Bucks, 50 years in the making.

Wow!

Indeed, just like any other sports games, injury is part of the game. If there are people feeling regret, it would be those that have been injured. I can't imagine their guilt for not having played because of the injury and whatever that stopped them from playing what could have been their Championship.

Congratulations to everybody but most importantly,
50 years in the making! Congratulations to Milwaukee Bucks!

[Reid]

Shaq has passed the torch on to Giannis, and we know this man is not easily pleased but look what he said on Twitter.

Oh, God. That's good to hear.
Shaq recognizing Giannis' skills inside the paint.
We have never seen such a good season now with Jokic and Giannis playing like it's back to the '80-'90s game.
Post-up game forcing for only a deuce and not settling for a three.
One with the soft touch while the other with the hardcore slamming his way to make a score.
I think that's why he got a lot of free throws, defenders forgot how to guard below the rim or there is just nobody that can stop him.

Edit:  unbeatable to beatable lol typo

Look, I confess that this NBA season there were a lot of unforeseen events, like several players got injured during the regular season/playoffs.

Never in my life would I have imagined the Nets and Lakers were quickly eliminated from the playoffs.

I believe that if there are no unforeseen events on Lakers and Nets and the team and it's 100%, I'm sure the Suns and Bucks will need to adjust to beat these teams and also win the season.

It's a big challenge for them especially the Bucks because next season, the Brooklyn Nets will already be a healthy team and they will also adjust, who knows, they might acquire more players that would help them succeed on their campaign, maybe they can get Drummond of Lakers will trade or dump him.

Yeah, good to hear that, we haven't seen such a dominant force in the paint since Shaq, and we all know that once Shaq got into the paint, no one can stop him, not because he is too big, but he is too strong as well for others to even stop him.

And we have seen that in Giannis, he is really unstoppable when he gets inside, a floater, a layup or even a left hand dunk. Ayton can't do anything about it, except to foul him sometimes for and 1.

They also have one thing in common with Shaq, they missed a lot of free throws, lol, hack-a-shaq, now it could be hack-a-giannis.

Yes, he just feel very good that time and maybe that's why he blurted that out and people take that out of context. They won, Lebron and KD has multiple rings and that's why him and the Bucks should achieved next year. Everyone will be going on their heads because they are the defending champs. So they should be ready and then proved the doubters wrong again by winning back to back. And maybe we can have a discussions about him and Lebron and KD as the goat of this generation.

Loyalty really matter in NBA. That's how the fans define greatness.
But, it's totally different when we're talking about LeBron and Durant. These both player could make a team a championship caliber. No matter how they change team, they will always have a great impact in getting a championship "If" the whole team is healthy.
Players like Kobe, Giannis, and other loyal players who have won championship are somehow fortune enough for having a good complementary teammates that their management provides. But, don't get me wrong Giannis has every right to say those things, no hate but he's pointing directly to James Harden.

The Oklahoma Thunder in 2011 should have stayed patient like the GSW and they could have been a superteam of their own.

Jokic is good but maybe Shaq sees himself on Giannis that is not a good free throw shooter but a dominant player inside. This is a big recognition for Giannis as Shaq being a legend, his statement really meant a thing. hopefully Giannis will improve more, his free throw shooting is the most important that has to be improve, next is his awkward 3 point shooting style.

[goinmerry]

No need to improve that awkward 3 point shooting. What for? It will be enhanced along the way. Why should we ask for that? He was able to reach his achievement without that best 3 point shooting stroke.

Focus instead on his specialty which is dominating the inside within paint. He's improving his perimeter shot slowly and his free throw. It's not necessary for him to improve at all aspects. There's no player like that and that was too much to ask.

[Russlenat]

Well, for those that have been feeling regret and think that they're just lucky because of the injury.

It's part of the game, whether the superstars got injured and that lessened the teams winning power. It's part of it, and what's done is done and congratulations to Bucks, 50 years in the making.

Wow!

And Bucks should be proud because it was their franchise player who helps the team to make it possible, unlike other teams that need to form a superteam in order to win a championship, you know what I'm saying, right? 

If Giannis will win another championship, then I will have to admit that he is already in level with Lebron James and Kobe Bryant, for now, there are people who are still in doubt that the Bucks will not win a championship if they face a healthy Nets or a healthy Lakers/Clippers in the NBA Finals.

look at the NBA winner odds for next season, Bucks is x10. 

https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/basketball/usa/nba/nba-60f9572f41ddce1ac040cdfa

Odds are unreal, what? Bucks x10 to win a championship? I think we should take this early as this might drop.

Since this is from sportsbet, you can also try to use a price boost to increase that odds, let me try.
Well the odds increase to 10.90, that's another bonus if they'll win the championship.

My concern is only the Nets, if they'll beat them again, then they will have a good chance in the NBA Finals as Lebron is not getting any younger if his team will reach in the NBA finals again.

They can't repeat championship, that was a one time trophy due to too many injuries on opponents. Next year there won't be this much injuries.

[mirakal]

We never know, now that Bucks had already won a championship, we will see a more confident Milwaukee Bucks next season, also, expect that Giannis will improve as he is still young, they will try to develop him into an all-around player and more consistent with his FT shooting. The first five should remain intact, they can add some players to improve the teams' offense, particularly the 2nd unit as they might face a tougher challenge next season.

They need to add more role players if they are aiming for another ring,
the statement above is for real if there's no injuries with those super teams both Suns and Bucks will have the difficulty reaching the finals.

But since they are now the defending champ the value of this team may grow, finding or adding quality players is no longer hard for this team.

early to discuss the next season, lets wait for any possible trades from that we will see who's hot and possible to reach the finals.

I think they will be a target for players who are chasing rings before retirement, with the status of the bucks its likely that lots of pre-agent will like to sign with them even with a minimum just to have a chance with the ring, but I know next year will be hard, and it's not gonna be an easy path for the bucks, but i think even though they won this year it will be lot harder, because all the teams star will be at 100%.

I wouldn't be surprised also if we see a lot of veterans joining the team for a chance to win a championship, just like Blake Griffin when he join the Nets for a lower salary and I'm sure the intention is to win a championship. Bucks now have the liberty to improve their roster as the management would make sure they'll be more than ready by next season.
