Cool to see James Posey get a coaching gig. He was a good player for a long time. Stats don't look all that impressive, but he was a nice role player. He was an important piece helping the Celtics win their title with Garnett, Pierce, and Allen.

Is wilt the most overrated player? Hot take but I dont know if I agree
Mj is
Wilt is not overrated
I don't think so. Everyone should respect Wilt, Russell, Mikan, West, Cousy, etc contributions to the game because those guys are part of the foundation of the NBA. With that said, the ridiculous stats some of those guys output should be placed into proper context.
The only thing those guys did was dominate the game in the era they played in, which is all you could ask of them.

I think so. I've been on the train that Nash has been a poor head coach for a long time now. Even back during the regular season.
Hey guys Iām new here
Welcome, make sure you read the #šrules
Nash was a good player tho so I donāt see why his coaching would be that bad
I thought he did a decent job
I've read that not every great players can be a good coach
Being good as a player and being a good coach are completely different things. They don't correlate.
It's different from leading and planning the game out
As well as how they deal with the roster
Nash has the ability to become a decent coach if he actually learns under someone. His in game adjustments are non existent and he handles minutes of his starts and key rotation players poorly.
Dantoni would probably be better
A fast pace is perfect for a superteam
Especially for a team that can start 3 ball handlers

Bill Russell becomes the first player in NBA history to have his jersey retired across the league. All NBA players will also wear a patch on the right shoulder of their jerseys during 2022-23 season, and every arena's court will display a clover-shaped logo with No. 6. https://t.co/bhNSldVKz0
The NBA will retire the No. 6 league-wide honoring the late, legendary player and activist Bill Russell.
RIP bill russell but I really donāt like this idea
Why?
When baseball retired the #42 league wide to honor Jackie Robinson, the MLB allowed all players who were wearing the #42 before the number got retired to continue wearing it. The NBA will more than likely do the same.
If they were to continue retiring #s for other guys in the very future, there would be very limited amount of numbers to pick from
I just think there are better ways to honor someone without limiting an NBA players # selection
They're not going to do it with a lot of players, though. We've seen some absolutely iconic and all-time great players pass away in the last 10-15 years and they have not done this.
Thatās one of the issues, if you were to retire someones number like bill russell. How come you canāt do the same with someone like wilt, kobe, etc. Theyād have to retire those guys numbers because they were atleast close to or even better than billās level of greatness. I just think they shouldnāt retire his number across the league
Not only was Russell an all-time great player, but he was also a civil rights and human rights activist. He had a great impact on not only African-American players, but also African-American coaches and human rights outside of the game of basketball.
That's partly why Jackie Robinson's number is retired throughout baseball but other all-time greats are not done that way. Yes, Kobe and Wilt are clearly all-time greats, but Russell's impact helping to tear down racial barriers not only in the NBA, but in the United States is a large reason as to why they are doing this with him vs. not doing it with other legendary players.
Yeah but why limit what # an NBA player can wear. Why not just change the logo to bill russell if thats the case, if he was such a big inspiration to the NBA (which I agree bill was a great civil rights activist)
I never understood why jerry west was āthe logoā when bill russell was more inspiring than him imo
I don't know. It's just something that the MLB and NBA have decided to do. I don't think it's a big deal and they won't constantly be retiring numbers throughout the league. This is the first time it's ever happened in NBA history.
I just hope itās a one time thing because if it continues itās gonna be annoying
My only comment about the jersey number retirement is why couldnāt they do it while he was alive? Have a ceremony and such.
Well, to continue his legacy. To make him known forever so people dont forget about him when he passes from this world
^further proving my point
I think in the NHL Wayne Gretzky's number is retired league wide as well.
But simply a # will not do much imo. He should be an NBA logo or something where people would look at something and ask āIs that bill russell?ā People donāt care about a jersey number, whatever catches someones eye will make someone remember you like a statue, a sports logo, a brand or whatever. Like michael jordan doesnāt need his number remembered because he has his own damn legendary logo the jordan logo, multiple statues, and multiple legendary accolades that will be remembered forever

Jordan has the highest peak, LeBron the longest peak
So itās kinda just what you think matters more, being better or being very very great and playing longer
All I can say for certain is, when the kids are making ābigger faster stronger more skilledā arguments 30 years from now, weāll be defending Bronās legacy like we do Jordanās and the men before us do Wilt. Because realistically, Wilt is at the very least the GOAT of athletes. His vert, speed, strength, height. Yeah, dudes insane. Wish he wouldāve been born later so we could see how heād do today in the NBA. Especially with motivation from Shaqās style if that wouldāve been a route he may have taken because he was not a Shaq-like player though he couldāve been that dominant imo.
I think honestly,the argument could go either way,ngl I think MJ's better juss wanted 2 see what y'all would say
I feel like there's a goat for every era tbh
Wilt is the most overrated player in nba history
I can get down with that, it seems like the only possible thing when you have the "bigger faster stronger, more skilled" crowd because like I mentioned, 20 years from now there'll be someone who is competitive to LeBron's legacy because skill will only become higher. I love both players, I even like LeBron more than Mike. But I do think if we're comparing the players from different eras, Michael is better. For now at least, LeBron still has a case to make to become the GOAT imo.
See I respect tht
I think bron could be the goat,but MJ still has it imo
So we agree
....
Bro wht
I underrate wilt ( not crazy) and still think thts a wild statement
I think WIlt is incredibly underrated as well lol
He doesn't get his flowers for a lot he did, and to be completely fair, he didn't win a lot of rings. I just don't think people overrate him really. Maybe not even underrated, just properly rated. H
For the average basketball fan though, so thinking about people that don't often participate in discussions, I imagine Wilt is underrated. But for people who do dig deeper and converse about it I think people have made great cases for why they place him so high. I don't think he's #1. I could probably place him top 15, though. Never really thought about anything besides my #1 and #2 and favorite players (which I have no idea where I'd rank them, mostly just talking about playstyle).. it'd be too hard to make a top 10 I think. Too much to take into consideration š
Will there be the wilt vs bill era
doesnt seem so
earliest seems to be magic vs bird
but i think maybe its because they cant get accurate courts or something maybe?
they focused a lot on immersion with eras
so i dont think theyd want to release something not 100% for the era who knows
either that or maybe licensing the players? maybe?
Yeah, that's fair, but they have a lot more issues that prevent them from winning games outside of Westbrook. For instance, the Lakers, as a team, are one of the worst defensive teams in the league. Yes, part of that is Westbrook, part of it is injuries, but another part of it is they just put lackluster effort on defense.
For sure I hate when people act as if Russ was the only problem on the team. They still have plenty of issues to sure up if he wasn't there. Either way they can't do anything this season anyways unless they can find a way to get veterans for cheap. They have max money in 3 players all of which are old or injury prone. All they've been able to get so far is lonnie walker which is nice but not game changing.
At some point, whether it be in this off-season or by the trade deadline, I think Westbrook's value will increase. He's an expiring $47 million contract, so someone will be interested in that, especially if the Lakers tie in some draft picks. I would assume at some point Kyrie gets traded by the Nets, otherwise he can just walk next off-season (unless they plan to re-sign him to a long term deal).
I think with Wilt though, he's just one of those athletes that could dominate in almost any era he's in
Same with Magic
HOT TAKE - Hakeem should be in Top 10 Greatest of All-Time
I've been saying that for awhile. He's 1 of the best Centers. He was a consistent player
Yes
LeBron is gonna be the goat when he retires
Agreed. Easily one of the most underrated players of all time
For sure
He will be one of the GOATS but he will not be the GOAT.
My personal opinion is that MJ is the GOAT but in general he is arguably the GOAT along side Kobe
Kobe is nowhere near top five GOAT though
why is devin booker the cover athlete
My thoughts exactly.
Just because kobes dead doesnāt make him the goatšš
People bout to say bill Russell the goat soon
Len Bias is the best to ever play the game and youāll never prove otherwise

but hes top 10...
that make sno sense
Kobe's my favorite, and even I'm saying he's not top 5, likely not top 10
Udonis Haslem announces at his youth camp that he will sign a new deal with the Miami Heat and return for the 20th season of his NBA career.
Mj will always be the goat
I don't think LeBron is the GOAT, but he does not suck
Even MJ got worse in his later years with the Wizards......
Well yeah obviously cuz he didnt play for a lil
Why didnt lebron get a 2k23 cover
Lmao
Cuz mj da goat
Oml your stupid
I'm gonna pretend you're trolling and aren't this ignorant
Says the one with a sonic pfpšššš
When did I say they were funny
You have it as ur pfp still... the monkey joke died like a year ago
Orangatangs are just chill animals
Nobody asked bro
Nobody asked for your opinion on Lebron
Kobe sucked too yall just say that cuz he dead
Neither tbh
he did not suck
Ok nvm your trolling my fault dawg
fair, @cunning spruce I agree
Of those I'd go either MJ tho
Derrick rose is the goat
Fax
why u hating on a dead man
that's fair
Not hating
Especially when Kobe modeled his game after MJ
Still think Kobe is the closest thing we've gotten to MJ tho
M3J got to be the most chill here thank you man
for sure. I don't think anyone could compare to their work ethic
Alex Caruso is the goat
yw
@spare basin it's a good movie
Caruso is definitely great
Brian scalabrine the goatš
Ye I'm like 50 mins in but imma go bye
I'm glad Lakers derped up
i feel like alex caruso is underrated
Thing in common is they all played for the bulls
no one really pays attention to him
not anymore tbh, not for years
Although nuggets are my favorite team
he's gotten a lt more attention
yeah ig
The bald mamba
I gotta get a Bulls Caruso jersey
lol
Only jersey I got is a jokic one
still tryna save up for a throwback raptors vince jersey
I need that Caruso one tho
He has heart, so he's perfect for the Bulls
Who?
JOkic is pretty good. I have Kobe, Giannis, and LaVine jersey
Caruso?
Caruso
Didn't want to pay him more?
he'd be a horrible GM
Alex carugoat
Wasn't MJ a bad GM too?
Idk
I can't be arsed to read
idk honestly
probably scared
didnāt want to be known as that guy who hated on mj
what call?
Nah but calling it is major d riding
The one on the wizards
oh, I know nothing about that
I don't understand. White committed the foul, no?
And the comments say he stuck with his call?
Nah itās way he said I believe you
sarcasm maybe?
I feel like overreaction tbh
Dr. J did it before MJ
Ok
Derrick rose better
Derrick rose better than any other player that has ever played
that 3-point floater
he's not a starter anymore
so no goat
no consistency
I already mentioned my favorite player
after saying he's not GOAT
I forgot too
Derrick rose > anything and everything
Derrick rose the goat you cant convince me he isn
Isnt
I don't need to, the fact that he's not relevant anymore is enough
no, his ACL would destroy him first
the color of my name reveals that
I like pizza
My fav player is Michael Jackson
how very interesting
that's physicsally unpossible
wires
No
yes
I was there, they used wires
No
yes
U obviously weren't there cuz they didnt use wires
bro you don't like mozzarella sticks, I ain't trusting you
that's not what you said
I do
Yall gotta understand that Derrick rose is the goat
mhmm
iām gonna find mjs best season stats and compare them to derrick roseās best season
Yāall have to understand this man is trolling

Wrong channel for this
Harden is trash that's why
He was though and that's why they still suck
fr š
that doesnt matter but over all d rose is the best player to ever play
harden overrated
only reason he looked good was because he was flopping like a fish and getting to the foul line every play

Harden is so booty

Steve Nash, Joe Tsai and Sean Marks met with Kevin Durant and Rich Kleiman in Los Angeles on Monday and have decided to move forward with partnership, Nets say.
The Kevin Durant trade discussions are over, the Nets say. Heās under contract for four years. https://t.co/Xnwk4rPW8q
Knew that KD trade talks was overhyped. Not surprised heās staying
Not surprised at all!
In the end, Kevin Durant and the Nets played out in a similar way to Kobe Bryant and the Lakers in 2007: A tumultuous summer after a trade request, talks with teams, no deal and ultimately a decision to return to the franchise.
Nooooooo
He just signed a 4 year extension, he had no leverage to ask out.
KD needs to get tf out of Brooklyn
He tried, and made himself look so ridiculous in the process that no team was willing to make the fair trade for his basketball value
He āneeds to get tf outā of a situation he almost single-handedly orchestrated
He deserves his misery
Faxxx
hahahahahaha at KD
Michael jordan is the goat now derrick rose isnt
Kind of odd Durant calls for the head coach and GM to get fired. Then, a few weeks later he decides to stay. They're all professionals, so I'm sure they will be mature and work through all the issues, but this is an awkward situation.

Thereās fear Oklahoma City Thunder No. 2 pick Chet Holmgren has suffered ligament damage in his foot and he is undergoing further opinions, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.
We all have to admit, Steve Nash coaching is trash
I think it's fair to say that Nash's head coaching didn't seem to be great. The issue is that Durant publicly called for him to be removed from the team, and there are a few instances where Kyrie Irving has shown what appears to be disregard for Nash. I just wonder how much this team can come together under Nash's leadership when the two best players probably don't have his ultimate respect.
A timetable is being determined for Chet Holmgren, as exams show potential torn ligaments in his foot, per @ShamsCharania.
He is believed to have suffered the injury at a Pro-Am game in Seattle that had to be stopped due to unsafe court conditions.
https://t.co/m6vlIfCaqu
Man that sucks for chet.
Remember though KD and Kyrie were the ones who said they didn't need a coach in the first place.
Idk it's good reps for him this early in his career. Just unfortunate
True, but I don't think those courts are treated as the NBA
publicizing all this stuff was a bad move on KD's part
that sucks dude
wasnt there like a bunch of water on the court at the crawsover event whatever its called

Damn lebron really did him like that
Unintentionally obviously but damn chet is fragile
Wonder what effect that will have on other NBA pros playing in pro-amās in the future.
I honestly donāt think it has any effect. People knew chet would have issues with contact because of how skinny he was. Main reason why guys like tacko fall and bol bol donāt get chances because they are so fragile. I feel bad for the kid but his physique is not going to help him

ESPN story on the Lakers finalizing a trade to acquire guard Patrick Beverley: https://t.co/FmGqyUE3cG
yall think bcz of this theyāre going to tank for wenbanyama
or nah
The Lakers getting Patrick Beverley is big. They needed a 3pt shooter and someone who will give effort on defense, and they got both of those things in one player. Trading THT and Johnson is a small price to pay as well. Great move for the Lakers.
Lakers still suck with Patrick Beverly
That's why i said teams shouldn't let players play pro am games
They still need to make one more trade or maybe two. The Beverley move is a step in the right direction, though.
After seeing thier free agency signing there not going anywhere
Chet holmgren
Not directing this at anyone here, but people need to chill with the Chet Holmgren is a bust talk. Looks like his foot injury was a fluky occurrence. He could use the year off to gain more weight and muscle being in an NBA strength and conditioning program.
Ben Simmons and Blake Griffin missed their entire rookie seasons. Joel Embiid missed his entire first two years in the NBA. Not saying Chet will be as good as any of those guys, but those are examples of other players who have missed their first full season (or more) and came back to be excellent players.
fr ppl love to draw conclusions on players that havenāt even stepped on an nba court yet and like to say someoneās trash when they havenāt even entered their 3rd or 4th year
some ppl progress thru their careers differently iām honestly happy af chet can take this year to red shirt and focus on strength n conditioning
Iām saying this rn, if Ben Simmons hits decently from 3 this season, imma be shocked
I think Chetās physique wasnāt even a factor in the injury
I donāt think any amount of muscle would prevent that specific injury but idk, not a doctor
Nooo Chet
Itās weird because looking back at the footage, bron didnāt step on him. Chet didnāt slip or anything.
Yup. A full year in an NBA strength and conditioning program will do him really well.
Agreed. It seemed to be a fluky injury.

debatable
gave me a heart attack reading that
No. Just no.
Kareem and bron are better than Kobe for sure
No that's cap
Ok bet
Good luck
Thx
Any luck
Top 5 is disrespect
Kobe is top 2 or top 3
Mj,Bron,Kareem,Magic,Kobe
Kobe is like 8-10. No way he's top 3 or 5 imo
no disrespect to Kobe, he's a legend for sure, but I have a hard time putting him anywhere close to Jordan, Bron, Kareem, Magic, and Bird. He's in that lower tier with Hakeem, Russell, Shaq, Tim, Steph, KD for me.
The Oklahoma City Thunder have applied to the NBA for a Disabled Player Exception worth $4.95 million due to the season-ending loss of Chet Holmgren, per sources.
Your ranking Larry bird over kobe , are you on drugs and kobe is way better than magic
Damn shame Holmgrenās rookie season was cut short by an injury. Hope he makes a speedy recovery
And kobe is way better than Hakeem steph curry and kd russel shaq Tim
Also @feral comet you acting like Kobe is like a demigod or something. Yes, Kobe was one of the greatest, but putting him over everyone else is very weird.
Which nba player getting traded next?
Bro kobe is better than magic and larry
In which I have to disagree with. Even though Iāve never seen any of these guys play, can you please explain to me in full detail in why you think Kobe is better than Magic and Larry?
Kobe has more all nba teams all star maps better prime ,3 nba championship in a row, and finals mvp and league mvps
When are you replying
lmfao no way
you gotta be joking
That's not a joke
Thatās what Iām saying to myself too
This man has to be high on something
Ok who had a better prime magic or kobe
Both
But who won 3 championships in a row
Kobe, but I seriously donāt think heās better than Magic or Larry
Idk if youāre a diehard Kobe fan or something

Initial exams on Celtics forward Danilo Gallinariās left knee show that the ACL is stable, full tests to come with an MRI on Sunday, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Good early news.
I mean, all those guys are really close to each other. If you want to argue Bird is better than Kobe, or Kobe is better than Bird - I have no problem either way. My main issue with your statement is that you essentially said, "I have a hard time putting him [Kobe] anywhere close to..."
I just have those 5 as my cemented top 5. Kobe is great but if we're saying he's on Bird/Magic's level than so are Timmy, Shaq, and Bill Russell
Yeah, those guys are. That's the point of what I was saying.
eh, I'll always see them as a tier below. Those guys aren't THAT far off but it's enough of a gap that I don't think it's worth debating. IMO Bron/MJ are on the highest tier, Kareem a tier below them, then Magic/Bird, and then the Kobe, Shaq, Tim, and Bill's of the world.

So with Donovan Mitchell now on the Cavs are they legitimate contenders or..
Cleveland is suddenly a major force in the East, adding three-time All-Star Donovan Mitchell -- with three years left on his contract -- to a lineup that includes two All-Stars -- Darius Garland and Jarrett Allen -- and a future All-Star with Evan Mobley.
Cleveland has the one of the brightest futures now in the NBA
Utah still has coveted veteran trade asserts, including Bojan Bogdanovic, Jordan Clarkson and Mike Conley Jr. They'll approach an Oklahoma City-esque haul of draft assets once they're done dealing. Jazz consider Markkanen, Sexton and Agbaji keepers for their rebuilding roster.

18 months ago the Cavsā rebuild was spinning its wheels with no true cornerstone players. Now they have 4 young stars all under long-term contract and a bright future. Hereās how they did it: https://t.co/zwiz14kC5J
It's been a few years since I've had a proper system to play NBA 2K. I wonder if the pick-stocking by Utah and OKC will be reflected in the MyNBA mode; does anyone know?
Great trade by Cleveland. Didn't have to give up any core either. If they can just address their sf position they should contend easily.
If Mitchell works out, Cleveland should contend for a few years, but they gave up a ton of draft capital in this trade.
They only have him under total team control for three years, with a player option for Year 4. They have to show consistent progress or he could bolt as a free agent.

"This is a team that may have as many as four All-Star caliber players and they're young. [They're] not only going to be really good now, they are built to be really good for a very long time." https://t.co/rDOdj3AFn1
Yea but scared money doesn't make money and with klove coming off the books soon they can make alot of noise. Honestly they could have made the playoffs last season if they didn't have injuries to 2 major players.
After receiving further evaluation, Bostonās Danilo Gallinari has been diagnosed with a torn ACL in his left knee, per sources. This is the same ACL that Gallinari tore in 2013.

Same for the Sacramento Kings. We could have made the playoffs if we didnāt have injuries either. Luckily, the Kings are making the playoffs this season. Just giving everyone my daily reminder.
I'm sure you're probably driving a lot of people crazy with that, but I for one hope you're right. You've got mah boy from the Pacers, Sabonis, on your team. And you're due. You haven't been there for 15 years.
It's pretty neat how in NBA 2K23, you can start in 1983, when the Kings played in KC. And keep them there if you really want to.
Not as high on the kings as y'all are. Outside of Davion Mitchell they have some real defensive issues on that team that need to be addressed.
Oh, don't get me wrong. I don't think the Kings will make the playoffs this year.
I have hopes for my Pacers to do a little better than expected this year, though.
We need to not bail the Lakers out by giving them Myles Turner in exchange for Russell Westbrook, though.
maybe Russ will be bette rwith the Pacers
I hope the Heat wonāt be just a play-in team
ZERO.
We lost Tucker to the 76erās
And now weāre desperate for a proper 4th man

P.J. Tucker is my spirit animal. I like this expression on his face. https://imgur.com/hUGhjMo
