NBA 2024/25

He loves that Balco.

I can’t imagine there’s any way he’s back for this series.
Best case, if they win this series, somewhere in the west final series,

He did a MCL in the last game of the series.

Always an excuse whenever he gets beaten.

I went from winning a premiership in MSAC A reserve to being rubbish in bush league D grade in the years between 33 and 38. It’s nothing short of extraordinary what that man is doing at 40.

Ridley and Parish can’t even get through a month of footy and they are mid 20s

No doubt he works extraordinarily hard at maintaining his fitness.

Let’s send Rish and Rids there pronto

Steph out for a least a week. So wont be available for games 2,3 & 4 at minimum :sob:

NBA players are generally investing int their bodies more than they used to l, and with sports science advancements they’re generally playing longer.

LeBron’s longevity is impressive for sure. But when you have Steph, KD, CP3 and others still playing at a high level in their late 30s it becomes a little less so.

There was also Jordan, Karl Malone, Kareem, Dirk, Tim Duncan, Nash and Stockton who all made it past their 35th birthday and played at a high level.
Very few made it to 40. And the ones that did were 5 years away from their career averages.

Advancements in sports science has been a large contributor though. Still an amazing accomplishment. Of the current / up and coming greats, (Jokic, SGA, Giannis, Edwards, Tatum, Doncic, Wemby), I’d say the majority should get to 35, but probably only 1 gets 40. And odds are by then, they’ll be very handy role players like Al Horford has been.

Steph, KD and Lebron are unique. That was pretty clear from the Olympic run last year. And it’s been great watching them towards the end of their careers. There’s a good group behind them though. All with varying game styles.

Oh man Knicks are getting hosed by refs in this one.

They are a million miles better than us regardless. Need to rely on them having an extremely off day like game 1 to get close

Yep, which means they dont need the men in grey help!!

Oh man come on White just jumped straight into Brunson landing space. Should be three free throws to Brusnon, ends up two free throws down the other end. Awful call.

massive run by the knicks.
