Old school AD tonight. A pleasure to watch.

Michael Jordan never won an In-Season Tournament.

Will that tarnish his legacy going forward?

Hardcore · 12-09-2023, 11:11 PM

pacers - done... stuck taking bad long shots to come back.... nah
congrats Lakers... old style basketball prevails.
they made just 2 threes the whole game

I don't think Tyrese was entirely prepared for this moment.

Also;

Knee Smith < Kenny Smith.

It has to, right? Not to mention, this is basically bron's 5th ring too...

Kingofkings1281 · 12-09-2023, 11:24 PM

Let the Bron hate commence.

5th? Since it's the inaugural does that count as 2? Is he now tied with Jordan?

Will Jordan become irrelevant?

I think he may have won a Magic Johnson Mid-Summer Nights charity game, which carries the same weight.

Adam Silver kicking the kids off the stage was a dick move haha

Jordan has been irrelevant since 07 when lebron took bums to the Finals (don't ask what happened in the Finals). Where have you been?!

Why does Joey Buss look Korean.

Who got MVP? I turned it off halfway through the 4th.

Nevermind... Should have known.

Jalen Hood-Schifino 'bout to blow a bag.

500k ain't nothing to sneeze at when you're a 5th string pauper.

Dodgers got Ohtani earlier today.

Lakers won In-Season Tournament tonight.

Bronny James scheduled to play tomorrow for USC.

Is LA the center of the World?

70? Hope you had a blanket with you

The IST ended up being way better than I expected. You could tell players cared, at least more than the regular season and ASG.

Just two more things the league need to implement to make it better:

- Spread the schedule out more so it starts in November and the final is in February/March.

- Only the final should be in a neutral court.

Won't happen. They don't want to mortgage the health of the stars of potential playoff teams late in the year.

I think it works well the way it is. Early enough in the season that it serves as a layover for the AS break, and not late enough that it compromises anything important.

LA Kings are the best team in the NHL

drobfan8 · 12-10-2023, 01:11 AM

The tourney will only get better from here.

Let's hope there's a better way of splitting up the pools.

And they need to fix the tie breaker. Hilariously bad.

I would actually prefer the quarter finals to not be split in to East and West sides. Random it. Just like the FA cup does. Or at least allow a West team to draw and East team.

In season tournament. League has become a joke!

Lamo, I never imagined people would still be trolling Lebron at this stage in his career but the man just keeps on being great.

Even if they don't push it as far as March, it will never be taken seriously if you have the Finals before Christmas.

It might look fine right now but without any changes, it runs its course by its third season.
