2024 NBA Season

[blockman]

He's different and has a different approach towards his body, he invests a lot on it and if every player is getting a huge contract as his. Then, for sure that they'll also the same self care with their bodies and will invest $1M on it yearly.

LeBron is a good example because, despite being an exceptional player, he still ensures to take care of his body. You can really tell that he is a disciplined man, unlike other superstars who love to party and enjoy their fortunes made in the NBA, which can lead them to forget about their future. At Lebron's age now, he still a decent player who could easily average a double double, so I'm sure he'll stay for awhile.

He has taken care of himself and not just taking care but investing in the health and we can see the results of it. Despite his age, he's still like before although of course there's still the difference between his prime and his current status. But looking at the health that he's got, that's because of how he invested his money into his health and not just a few amount of money but IIRC, that's like around $1M annually. Those young calibers should do the same as his if they're having a good amount of their contracts. I am sure that if one of his sons or both of them gets in, that's one tip that he's going to teach them.

I see him in the same path of Irving, and both cant stop falling.

Kyrie Irving is my favorite player in the NBA, and it saddens me that he's in this situation. Lebron and Kyrie were a very good duo, they played very well together.
Kyrie definitely needs to wake up, if they can get back together with Lebron they can do great things again.

I’ve been thinking about Jaylen Brown’s potential to earn 70 million dollars in a year on his next contract and wondering who the first player will be to earn 1 million dollars per game in the NBA. I think I’m ready to say that I think it will be Anthony Edwards or Karl Anthony Towns. Interestingly, they are both on the same team currently. I’m guessing that won’t last long…

Anthony Edwards is a good candidate for that, without a doubt.
After Paolo Banchero's rookie contract, he is also a good candidate for that as long as he can keep himself healthy and will perform better in the next 3 more years of his early career. His stats last season were so good for a rookie but not much of a highlight because he is playing for a low-seeded team with not many good cores. But this year could be different, chemistry is building up with the Wagner brothers, Markelle Fultz, and Cole Anthony. Plus they have a good big man at Carter Jr.
The Orlando Magic are silent at this trading hype, I think they are going to stick with their young roster and try to just strengthen them by adding veterans to guide them.

I just read that James Harden has removed all information about Philadelphia 76ers from his social media accounts.

Probably all ties are broken. James Harden will definitely go to another team.

Last I heard, Harden was thinking LA Clippers. Talks he wants to be reunited with Westbrook. I don't know if the trade will happen, but if it does maybe he will finally be happy with an old teammate and stay in 1 place for the rest of his NBA career.

Harden would be a better fit for the Clippers than John Wall was. I don’t think they could win a championship with him, but they’d get further than the first round of the playoffs. I think James Harden and Paul George could make for some great highlights as well. I consider them 2 of the most streetball like players currently playing in the NBA.

Harden might be a good fit for the Clippers, but who will the Clippers give to the Sixers? For sure Norman Powell will be the main guy in the trade package, and some other role players plus draft picks as well.

On the good side, it's good to see 4 all-star players playing in one team. That increase their chances in winning the title, and for sure Steve Balmer would always standing out there in the audience area, and happy cheering for his team. On the flip side, this trade has more bad than good effects on the whole Clippers.

Injuries will be their problem if the trade will push through. Yes injuries are very normal with these NBA players, but just imagine Kawhi out in the playoffs, PG out in the playoffs, and Harden will be out as well because of his hamstring injury (back when he was in the Nets. We don't know if anytime during the playoffs, he aggravate it again). Westbrook is the healthiest player out of the 4, but he alone can't carry the team. Who will help him when these 3 all-star get injured? No one because they traded Powell already which is the 2nd option during the playoffs when Kawhi and PG injured.

Overall, yes we don't know the future of the team if Harden will be on the Clippers, but I just shared my opinion base on their performances, and experiences in the past. I hope that I'm wrong with the injury part, and hoping still that they will not get injured, but if that happen, Kawhi, PG, and Harden will be traded next year since they have an expiring contract.

Paul George may be on the trade block. That might be the cost of Harden. With the frequency of injuries that PG and Kawhi face, I would look to unload both of them for some younger talent. I cannot see a good future for the Clippers if they plan to try to keep both of these guys.

With the money that they've got from those huge contracts, they should follow what LeBron did to his health, investing to make sure that
he can last up to date and still competing.

Though it's not just investing but also taking care of it in terms of discipline, having that will and make sure that you are caring
about your future and your career, that's the legacy that he will leave from this league.

Not the same as he is from his prime, but compared to other players, it's undeniable that he is still exceeding and still capable
to play.

There issues regarding injuries is what giving a big problem with Clippers so if they want to compete maybe the best decision they could do is to have Harden in the rooster and trader either one of then since it can lessen up their loads. Then get a good player so that they can maximize their stars and maybe get a good result with that action. They already tried this duo but nothing happen to them so maybe good if they take one of them and acquire a player which doesn't have health issues.

But the roleplayers did great last season with Westbrook leading them so I think all they need is to keep the roster intact and yes, health will be their key to winning a playoff spot again.
Westbrook had no problem with that, in his whole career I had never seen him go thru a lot of time with an injury. I think all they need is Kawhi Leonard to be back on track and create chemistry with them.
Paul George had his bad moments too but I don't see them repeating a bad season like next year. The plus-minus or Kawhi is too high whenever he is on the floor and they Clippers management is actually not paying at a high price anymore with WB accepting a cheap contract.

Maybe best for them to give a last chance for this current roster since they are strong already and maybe they need to develop more their chemistry so that it can give them good result. Trading their current piece might give bad effect to them since maybe they encounter a issue on chemistry again so best not to touch this current line up since who knows if these two stars can sustain to be more healthy next season then they might have a chance to win a championship.

That is just how it goes for the other team when they acquired those star players and think they can bring them the championship but injuries are always the torn to stop those dreams. Not only the Clippers but the other team as well. Kawhi was fine when he was acquired by the Clippers but they didn't see the storm coming when he always gets injured and the farthest place they've got is only in the playoffs, they never get a chance to get to the NBA finals with him due to his injuries every season.

But at least with Leonard, they were able to reach the conference finals. Leonard already had injury problems when he was still with the Raptors, but they knew how to manage him, which is why they were able to utilize him in the playoffs. There are really players who fit with one team but do not fit with another team.

At Lebron's age now, he still a decent player who could easily average a double double, so I'm sure he'll stay for awhile.

It's really amazing how Lebron continues to play at a high level. Not saying he is the only one capable of doing it but there are only a few superstars that can do near his average. He can score, not just thru volume attempts but his accuracy remains very good. His eye coordination is still great along with his reflexes reason why his assist is still high. And despite his age, he continues to grab rebounds consistently. It also means Bron is taking care of his body a lot. He is also open to the way he invested millions of dollars to help maintain his body. So from nutritionists, therapists, and other health experts traditional or modern, Bron is into it.

You can't blame him; he has invested a lot in himself because as long as he is still playing basketball, he will continue to make millions of dollars. In addition, he has a lot of endorsements that can also pay him while he is still in the NBA. Not only that, LeBron has also mentioned during his speech how big his passion for basketball is, so he really does everything to remain competitive at a high level and continue making history by breaking records in the sport he loves the most.

He already has a net worth of billion dollars. He surely doesn't play for money anymore. I admire his passion and love for basketball immensely. Like almost every other player, I would have been retired much earlier. But he is still going strong. I don't think anyone in the history of sports has ever been this much effective at this age. He can still bring championships with being the star of the team. Everyone forgets how old he actually is, because he plays that good. Well, that being said, chances of Lakers for the title are not too strong of course. Anthony Davis's health is still in question, and it will probably always be like that. I don't think lakers can get the title this year. Maybe if or Lebron change things for the next year, there is a chance.

He is destined to be a Hall of Famer. Maybe he will not become the GOAT, but people will never forget the name LeBron James. In the history of the NBA, I would consider LeBron James as one of the top 3 players, but that's just my personal opinion. With LeBron still playing in the NBA, it makes the games more interesting to watch. Everyone knows LeBron, and it will help boost the number of viewers, especially when his team reaches the NBA Finals.

Leonard already had injury problems when he was still with the Raptors, but they knew how to manage him, which is why they were able to utilize him in the playoffs. There are really players who fit with one team but do not fit with another team.

Leonard is a pretty great player and can be relied on by the Clippers and during his joining he managed to give enough points for every game that could result in a win.
In 2019 Leonard also became the 6th ranked player in NBA history for players who managed to score 700+ points in one postseason.
So that naturally, the Clippers can still use him in the play-offs even though he is injured.

If it's about talent, there is no doubt that these mentioned players have what it takes to be a champion or at least caliber-like but if we're talking about the welfare of the team while also considering these players health, the Los Angeles Clippers will not benefit if they will still give them an extension within their expense because there is no guarantee that teams will still risks some money for them in the upcoming seasons.

They failed last season, so it's about time to move on and look for other players. Westbrook might have thought that PG and Kawhi would stay because he chose to stay with the Clippers for a very low salary. I'm guessing he just wants to win a championship, and he believes in his teammates to help him achieve that goal. So what would happen if PG and Kawhi will get traded?

[dwyane36]

Harden would be a better fit for the Clippers than John Wall was. I don’t think they could win a championship with him, but they’d get further than the first round of the playoffs. I think James Harden and Paul George could make for some great highlights as well. I consider them 2 of the most streetball like players currently playing in the NBA.

It's worth noting that Leonard will likely be fully recovered by training camp. With that in mind, I don't really see how Leonard, George, and Harden will play together in the starting lineup and how they will share the ball with each other. As for whether they can win a championship, I also doubt it. Championships are primarily won by teams with good chemistry, not by teams with a lot of all-star players.

Kyrie definitely needs to wake up, if they can get back together with Lebron they can do great things again.

His career was set to skyrocket after he teamed up with Lebron because at that time, the spotlight was on him too and he didn't fail to show skills that was pretty impressive and we could say that without him, there may be what ifs about Cleveland's victory in having the championship trophy.

But all of that started to turn downhill when he asked for a trade from the Cavaliers because in his words, he said "I don't want to be a Robin to the Batman (LeBron)" and that became a nightmare because after that, he had no success and even became a diva despite all of the challenges he faced.
