    The NBA hasn't been relevant in the last 10 years. After Magic, Jordan and Bird it went to shit.

    Hey so who's gonna be commish for our league? Let's get it set up soon before the season starts. We should get as many regulars as possible to keep it interesting. I'll just gift the winner an NBA.com online gift card.

    I can commish, but prefer not to if I don't have to. The big thing to figure out is head to head, or rotisserie. I'm a huge fan of the latter.

    Nah I hate being commish. I think trades should just go down to league vote and commish gets the tie breaker, right?

    NYJATW should just set it up.

    Alright fine. I work third tonight, so I'm going to get some sleep for a little bit, and I'll set it up in the afternoon.

    I've signed up. Who else is in?

    Would love to get this all set up before the season begins. I can do any night or weekend other than this Saturday for the draft.

    We need to get enough people first. Maybe we should read the old NBA thread, and tag the people in it asking. I'm on mobile atm, so I can't.

    Are Knicks any good? I would like to purchase tickets for a few games before Christmas to take the kids but if they are going to suck as always, I won't bother. Also @abyzmul doesn't know yet but I am bringing my family to San Antonio during Christmas and we will watch Spurs-Suns game at ATT Center with abyzmul right next to us.

    Knicks are gonna suck I think. Maybe they'll make the playoffs but they're first round fodder even if they do. Vegas o/u is at like 40.5

    My Celtics are going to make some noise this year, but it's still a 2 team league right now. Basketball has never been about league parity, it's for the appreciation of the game itself.

    NFL wouldn't survive if there was the same lack of parity the NBA has year in and year out.... There isn't that much in the NFL this year, and everyone hates the product to go with questionable officiating (something the NBA also deals with almost daily).

    Nothing would make me happier if the Warriors don't make it to the finals. Any NBA fan, or anyone with a competitive bone in their body, should think Durant's move was the definition of bush league (by going to GS). I never expected him to join the Celtics, that was a pipe dream... But go to the team your former team should have beaten in the western conference finals, and create a mega super team? Screw off.

    Preach. Anybody but GS will make me happy.

    Well if GS doesn't make the Finals then SA will, it has to be 1 or the other right. I'm all for seeing Gasol win but I just don't see it happening.

    Boston's 52.5 line is hard to make sense of. Honestly I think the Celtics fucked up by picking Brown over Dunn. Im still betting that Ingram wins it and if he doesn't then Dunn will. We shall see. Not a fan of Jaylen Brown at all. But 52.5, Vegas? What the fuck?
