The Pelicans are fricking terrible but at least I know the fricking Saints have a shot at making the playoffs and championship game.

frick the NBA for this top heavy bull shite.

You mean to tell me I have to rely on an OLD AS frick Spurs team to "TRY" to beat this ridiculous squad next year?

LOL yeah you NBA frickbois are enjoying this shite.

Might as well make the 2018 Playoffs in December and spare everyone the fricking suspense.

SA really isn't that old outside of Manu and Pau tbh. And Manu might be gone next year. Parker won't return (maybe) until midseason.

Kawhi? Aldridge? Green? Mills? Simmons? These aren't old guys.

No. I said he wasn't an old guy.

Also, I've lambasted Aldridge countless times on this very board.

Those 1984 teams were built by trades, drafts and driven by GMs. If you're suggesting the PLAYERS formed those teams then you're being willfully retarded.

The only way to "fix the situation", if we even want it to be "fixed"...

Is to go to a Hard Cap and get rid of Max Contracts.

Maybe thats what we need though, somebody to come out of the unknown, molded by the fire and darkness.

This has a downvote already, despite if being fact people hate when their excuses can't hold up to scrutiny; it's not even a debatable metric

These are built by free agency, what's your point?

It's a useless statement, it means nothing.

Eventually, the cap will take care of the problem so it won't be a long term issue, but it just means these playoffs have sucked. It happens.


See, no. I disagree. Eventually there will be another superteam to take its place. Rinse and repeat. There are not enough options or incentives to help struggling cellar dwelling teams.

So what happens is there will always be GSW, maybe a CLE, but there will always be 10-12 teams that are an Orlando Magic.

I'll speak specifically to the Magic since this is my pain. In baseball, you can build a team through a draft that's 50 rounds (I don't know how many). In basketball, the sport is so niche, you may have 3 players in a draft that are All-Stars in a good draft.

Once a team is not seen as a FA destination, it's future is left to lottery balls (if you're not a conspiracy theorist) and overpaying "money driven" players by 20-30% to field a competitive team.

NBA is a non-competitive league. Anybody just can't beat anybody. And it's great when you're on top, pay a tax and you can sit there forever. When you in the basement, there is literally no way to get yourself out of it besides hoping for a miracle.
