NBA 2025-2026 Season : The One Where We Learn About Cap Cirmcumvention Rules

[kisada]

Dude the sixers have a pretty nasty roster now. Their forwards are kind of sketchy tho. Guards and centers are rock solid.

Maxey / Philon

Brown / Edgecombe

Embiid / Drummond

it is indeed nasty. i mean embiid's as toast as they come but that doesn't really matter with brown, maxey, and edgecombe as your big 3.

the east is fucking nuts right now with this, kawhi back to raps, hali coming back, and we're not even accounting for some wild shit where lebron goes back to cleveland lol.

meanwhile giannis and bam probably will carry the heat to an 8th seed - as the heat are wont to do - lol. but at least they'll be a better than usual 8th seed

[Andalusian girls]

Brown is 7 years younger and actually plays his games but the Sixers contention path will always lie with Embiid's health anddddd yeahhhh

always love him for dragging his animate corpse into 4 good games against Boston to upset them before returning to the grave but how is the man gonna stay healthy for a whole playoff run

they're gonna be good just not quite good enough till they get out from under that contract

So I guess Boston is just fine being mediocre for the next 5 years

I can’t wait for the next Simmons pod

that Jrue White Brown Tatum Tingis starting 5 was absolutely mint, terrific team and terrific Finals run in 24, can't believe they blew it all up after a close series loss to the Knicks while injured. should've been a major rivalry for years.

We were taking that series no matter what but yeah I love this as a Boston hater

Trading Brown within the division is wild, kinda says what the Celtics think about his ability as a needle mover

[Andalusian girls]

he's a Finals MVP and just led his team to a 56 wins 2-seed as the #1 option averaging 29-7-5 on 48%/35%/80% in a rebuilding year. the Brown-Tatum duo have gotten the Celtics to the ECF or farther in 6/9 playoffs they've had together, they're one of the more successful pairings of the modern era, and they're 28 and 29.

unless his game collapses as he hits 30+ is bonkers

[kisada]

what if they just knew things were untenable once he wanted out, and then failed to actually trade him the first time around for giannis?

not that i think this deal is very good for them (i think it's awful), but i would imagine it's got less to do with his capabilities and more to do with like, ALL the stuff that's come with this situation - including having to deal with jaylen brown himself

[archibaldcrane]

They still have Hugo

Reports are that Philly is trying to sign Bron actually now lol

Somebody frame this trade in baseball/football terms for me because my little brother is a die hard Celtics fan and he’s losing his absolute fucking mind lmao.

Imagine trading Judge today for Trout and a couple of AA mid prospects

Okay that sounds pretty bad

[Dimmauk]

Is there an award for the basketball team with the most white guys on it? And what should that award be called?

Live, laugh, Lakers
Snowtime Lakers
Lakestreet Boys
The Great Whites
The Cream team.

Fuck off Lebron you had your shot

Lakers have banished Ayton to the Wizards after he opted in earlier in the week.

Rockets gave 3 2nd rounders to the Hornets to take on Dorian Finney Smith's contract.

Also as per usual post trade there's been a ton of Jaylen Brown hit pieces making the rounds. Analytics really do not like that man at all

Every family has to have that one contrarian.

Hey Pelinka finally got AD that center he always wanted.

the amount of hate he's getting rn is kinda disgusting, man didn't do anything but get traded after grabbing the team that drafted him a ring

[kisada]

what's funny is people using the chart of his lifetime on/off vs paul george's

except like, they're totally different in their career arcs as of this moment in time, sooo

[Krandor]

Knicks signed Andre Drummond.

Pretty pretty good replacement for Mitch
