It's literally the answer to the question, "What if HBO produced another one of their awesome shows but this time, it was about the NBA?" I never figured it would have been able to be made but I'm glad it was.

I’m hoping it leads to more.. casting will be so difficult though. I can’t imagine for most teams throughout history you find players that look the part as well as Magic, Kareem, Haywood, West, Nixon..

I think something similar from the Wilt and Russell era could be done.

Locked up Luka a few times and got his team back into the game. https://twitter.com/MoTownHoops/stat...v8-YC5Qkw&s=19 I'm not saying Barnes can't and hasn't done any of the above. It's just very clear to me. Just watch how teams defend and treat a player on the court. Here is the other thing. Take the top rookies off their team. The Detroit will be complete garbage. Like literally unwatchable. Here is another question. I've watched pretty much all the rookies this year more than I'd like to admit. Can you or anyone in here (expect Marji) tell me a big game by Scottie Barnes without looking? Like a memorable game. Still editing lol Some people have made their choice https://twitter.com/KevinOConnorNBA/...k8tjVBqTQ&s=19

I think basically everyone outside of some Pistons fans and you would say this is already the case. They were literally the 3rd worst team in the league this season.

Man I had a whole “The Nerds are ruining our game” rant typed of it and of course this app crashed and didn’t save smh.

But yeah, they’re ruining our game. I used to support their stances and some of their arguments but now…sickuvem

I haven't watched the NBA since the pandemic started. I thought "no fans" was very weird and tbh I just don't like the style anymore like I did growing up. I absolutely loved the 2012-2014 Spurs and I really have no problems staying a Spurs fan but my heart just ain't in it like it used to be. I still love college bball and being a Kentucky fan, I always hope for success of former UK players.

I've been thinking of checking out the playoffs though. We'll see.

Casting is always going to be the toughest part. Season 2 already has the green light so I think the question will eventually be: what era will they jump to next? I can’t imagine they’d just take single years at a time.

But soon enough, guys like Michael Jordan and Isiah Thomas start working their way into the equation and you figure somebody’s going to have to play those guys. I imagine they’d be able to find a good Kurt Rambis though.

With how they’re ramping every character up, I have a pipe dream of seeing a caricature of Bill Laimbeer pop up at some point. Imagine the fun that could be had there.

Cade has always kind of reminded me of a character you’d see lounging in the Wii Plaza.
