sne Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Hornets with a franchise record loss of 135-82 against the 76ers. The squad is just comically badly put together by years of poor drafting (with a few good exceptions in Miller, Ball and Williams) and a passive GM who just want's to retire. That said the injuries they are having (again) is just fantastic. This game it was: Neither played. And then Rozier and Ish got their noses elbowed and had to leave the game not to come back. Miller also got clattered by Oubre and had to leave the game but he came back a while later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 27 straight losses for the Pistons. They are now the worst team in NBA history in that regard. 1 more and they also catch the 76ers who had 28 but over 2 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The joys of having Favre and Rodgers back to back in the division. Tough town to live in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornso Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 You’d think as a Villa and Browns fan right now I’d be happy, but I’m not. The Pistons are crushing me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted January 20 Moderator Share Posted January 20 The Bucks really have gone to garbage - from a decent outside shout for the Championship to a team that don't look like they could beat the Spice Girls in the space of three weeks.

Sure they upgraded on the offensive end getting Lillard, but I'm not sure it's an overall net positive on the other end. They have bigger fish to fry, it will be all about how they can make it work in the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You saw the writing on the wall. Fired their coach despite being 2nd in the East. I mean, he did only beat my Pistons by 6 & 9 in his last two games so should be no surprise really 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Luca Doncic with a respectable 73 points against Atlanta. Joint 4th highest on the all time list. Been some big games this season, Embiid had 70 a while back and Townes had 62. Not looked at the detailed stats for the games but Embiid in particular is shooting a ridiculous amount of free throws this season (again). He's the Harry Kane of the NBA , expert at drawing fouls, and the refs seem to be falling for his flailing and shouting every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear the way the game is officiated has changed over the last 10 years. They give way more fouls than ever, allow travelling constantly. it's hard to actually watch the sport these dayys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Was a huge NBA fan back in the day (the 90's) and then on and off since but I'm really struggling to get back into it. Main reason probably because Charlotte is a joke. The issues you raise are a big part of it thou. Feels more like an entertainment product than an actual sport and neither the players or commentators seem to care much during regular season at least. Commentators are yapping about what they ate earlier or that the taxi from the airport was late or whatever. The players are laughing it up on the bench even if they are losing and the stars are sitting out large parts of the seasons instead of competing. As a non American I find the broadcasts insufferable with all the bleeped rap music and the zooming in on fans dancing in the stands during breaks. Team loyal commentators also doesn't help although some are better than others. Charlotte actually are OK at this.

Of the 4 major sports over there, NBA is definitely the one that takes itself least serious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
