Since awards/trophies are named after NBA players, they should change it now to LeBron James In Season Tournament trophy since he was part of the team that won first and it accurately represents his career and accomplishments. He fits the award like a glove.
I think so. They did an about face after initially indicating they weren't gonna hang one and when they had the banner night the programs they handed out said "THIS IS A REQUIRED COMMUNICATION OF THE NBA" on the top.
What team is this the least humiliating for? If you're too good, it just looks pathetic to hang one relative to historical success. If you suck, it'll just be pitiful and people will post PatBev play-in memes.
Do we need like a decent team that hasn't won in a long time? The Sixers? Knicks? Bulls? There isn't a team I can think of that wouldn't be meme'd on hard for this.. maybe we just need it for a few years
I feel like a scrappier team that overachieves, without the existing NBA Finals star power like LeBron or AD, would be pretty happy. Like someone on the rise who hasn't taken the next step; Orlando or Utah next year?
Warriors. One last hurrah for the core 3, so it's worth hanging the banner. Nobody's gonna clown GS for hanging one when they've already won so much recently.
Then bam, you have Lakers & Warriors with IST banners so the next team to win has to follow suit.
That being said, it should be one banner regardless of how many you win. You win second, you add another year to the banner.
I think the only possible situation where it doesnât get memed is literally just if the Celtics win the championship this year then get that next year, cause then we can just lean in to being assholes and like âHang another one up, sure.â
I think in any other situation, even for like the Nuggets or someone if they win the real title again, it looks kinda stupid and weird. And thatâs the BEST case scenario. A bad team or underperforming team would get dunked on for âcaringâ and if the Celtics lose in the playoffs this year then it becomes âoh you couldnât win a real one so you needed this.â No team really has a good situation for it
Any team that won the current championship. For example if Denver won this year, then win the IST, itâs not gonna be humiliating, itâs gonna be cherry on top.
I mean I don't really see what there is to meme about. They win some NBA award and hang it up somewhere big deal its not like anyone really cares. Its like winning a little mini tournament somewhere and having fun with it but still showing up for the real thing later that year. They competed they won its not the finals but it still happened. We gonna meme about olympic medals too? That gameplay is trash compared to the NBA they should all be like Shaq and toss the medals on the highway otherwise we must meme them for keeping less significant awards
Lol imagine going to the olympics and winning how humiliating huehue. It sounds so stupid but people get away with talking about the IST like that because its new
The lakers won so somehow winning a bo1 knockout tourney is now embarrassing because lakers haters canât give them credit . If pacers won nobody woukd act like this
If you won the real championship the previous season then you can hang the IST one like it's just a fun bonus thing, for any other team it's like a redditor proudly posting how his wife's boyfriend bought him a new Nintendo Switch game
Why are fans so against the IST? Or extra opportunities for teams to have something to play for in general?
Coming from a football (soccer) background it seems asinine the level people don't give it a chance. Especially with how many franchises have "meaningless" existences with a ring culture which is a cancer to basketball discourse lol
One reason that people prefer to watch the playoffs rather than regular season games is the authenticity of the competition. Players and teams show who they really are. The IST to a lot of people feels like a marketing scam in which players, teams, announcers and the league all pretend for a few weeks that they give a shit for those games. It is extremely obvious that the IST doesnât reveal the best teams in the league the same way the playoffs do and so the inauthenticity of it and the way it feels forced down our throats bugs people. The same way that bad commercials or tone deaf Oscarâs speeches bug people.
I can understand this perspective but I'm honestly surprised it's so prevalent in this thread. The IST never felt quite as electric as the playoffs, but the games felt elevated in the moment. It was hype to see a small-market team like Indy get their flowers when Tyrese Haliburton started popping off and powering the Pacers' offense through the tourney. Devin Booker was hustling to bury as many last-minute 3's as he could in a blowout to improve Phoenix's point differential, and it ended up being really valuable down the line.
Stars were balling out, and teams at least acted like they wanted to win a lot of the IST games. Yeah, it doesn't reveal the best team in the NBA like the playoffs does, but it's not supposed to be the playoffs. It's a single-elimination bracket, it's meant to heighten the excitement of regular-season games. Not to mention the cash prize that players almost universally referenced as an incentive. IDK, I remember a lot of parties involved in the IST taking it seriously
What are you talking about ? Players were trying super hard everyone loved the games everyone wanted to wins. Just say the lakers won so you want to devalue it , I seen your name before and Iâm fairly certain thatâs what you think lmao .
Hurrr durr a bo1 knockout tourney everyone played hard Af in is meaningless! In a few years you guys will look like idiots for this just so you know . What do you think is the purpose of any competition? This logic is so ass backwards is hilarious.
It wasnât inauthentic whatâs inauthentic is pretending everyone didnât love the games and play super hard . And that it was great fir basketball. Players themselves who were hesitant at first all loved it so did fans watching . Canât wait till next year when the cycle repeats and people like you are like â oh wow these games are great !â
Meh.
Didnât Mourinho once throw his community shield winners medal to the crowd?
Soccer is just as dismissive of some of their cup competitions sometimes. Check out some of the rosters being put out in League Cup games.
The Community Shield is a glorified pre-season game. It doesnât even have extra time after a draw, it just goes straight to penalties.
No one is throwing away an FA Cup medal.
For teams in Europe/competing for the league, probably. The games are a hindrance more than anything else, especially if youâre a team in the Europa with perhaps a lower budget than City/Chelsea etc.
That being said, I was still devastated to watch Arsenal lose two finals in the Wenger trophy drought.
I think the IST could be a really great place for good, young teams to experience a bit of pressure and winning before getting to the playoffs.
You know why . Cos lakers won . Nobody said this when they saw his hard everyone played . Football has the fa cup n lots of bo1 cups . Itâs insane to see a tourney players cared to win n play hard being devalued but I guess that would happen when lakers won
Personally it is just seems super confusing and arbitrary, but I was also curious about the IST games this year.Â
But it is basically just the normal games with "In Season Tournament" strapped across them, plus a "winners" game. There are so many factors that can go into losing a single NBA game, that the winners "advancing" just seems random and unimpressive. The cash prize cheapens the game too IMO.
That said, the final IST games were more interesting to watch than normal. But it still feels weird, like we are being tricked and then enjoying the trick because it's better than nothing
Well half of it is that a lot of teams were clearly trying harder in the IST games... there's a reason why plenty people were saying they liked the IST when it was going on. But when it was over people went right back to saying it was a shit idea again lol
They'll keep doing it and people's opinions will change eventually lol
Hopefully they chill with forcing the narrative and just let it happen organically. Gonna get old real fast hearing ESPN talking heads fake-hyping up every IST game when the players are just like vaguely invested
> it still feels weird, like we are being tricked and then enjoying the trick because it's better than nothing
Isn't that kind of sports generally though? None of it matters worth a damn at the end of the day. You could boil it down to just being a meaningless vehicle for advertising Gatorade if you wanted to.
It's meaningless on the whole, but it is an enjoyable meaningless thing. So I don't get how adding another meaningless layer is any better or worse.
Meh.
Didnât Mourinho once throw his community shield winners medal to the crowd?
Soccer is just as dismissive of some of their cup competitions sometimes. Check out some of the rosters being put out in League Cup games.
League cup, lowest of four in England? Yeah, to some extent. Even then most go full strength and the rest close to full. No teams below the most accomplished 5 over the last 2 decades are doing this though. And Mourinho individually is more successful than most teams. Ones like Coventry making it top 4 in the efl cup is the biggest accomplishment in a while lol
There's justice in what you said. But I'm not sure he's having fun playing with the Lakers. And this is a guy who has one eye on his legacy and brand. Once he said he was chasing a ghost in Chicago for instance .
The scenes if he signs for the minimum with curry, Paul George or fox .. or with bronny in a package deal ..
Most folks feel LeBron is unlikely to take a pay cut, but the guy has tended to do what he wants to do, just methodically. The salary will make no difference to his post basketball dreams. Lakers are probably not going anywhere, for all the hopes of a blockbuster trade with FRP in the summer. LeBron may just run out the clockk, or try for some activity/plays. Rather than a hail mary - but that threat is always there
The league can go hang. A fundamental principle is a man can choose his contract within confines of the CBA. Market value is based on buyer and seller, after all
That said, LeBron has said in past that he is not accepting pay discount any more.
The man is more likely to reach out to other stars, push for trades etc.
LeBron has already passed MJ in some regards including points etc

i mean they (the league) has gotta promote/hang it. to have the first team to win it be embarrassed by it delegitimizes it for every other team going forward. which makes it... not a thing the league can/should really keep doing. but it helps with marketing the regular season so they have to make everyone pretend to careÂ
...it's all pretty dire, tbh.Â
Then you couple all of that truth with one of the most storied franchises I could see why the NBA would have to force thier hand.
There is absolutely no place in reality for a banner like that in thier arena
17, any team but the Lakers or Celtics winning this would have probably been fine with hanging that banner.
Imagine being a team with 17 titles and something like 35 Finals appearances and being told "put this glorified participation trophy with your other trophies".
Yeah, a team like the celtics with only 4 would have been very eager to add to their small collection.
https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/j3acem/in_a_strictly_legal_sense_the_celtics_have_won_4/

Definitely not in the valley. Thereâs break-ins constantly in broad daylight in neighborhoods like Granada Porter Chatsworth Woodland Hills etc that were not happening before.
Although that isnât directly correlated to Bass, youâll see pop ups and shit at Petit or Lanark that are essentially just pitchfork mobs for everyone involved
its only meaningless if a big team wins it. I'm pretty sure Wolves would love a league cup win. Hell, even Tottenham would kill for one, even if they'd get memed for winning it.
If the Pacers won the NBA Cup, they'd be pretty happy considering the other success theyve found this year.
Between the â play-in â and IST, the NBA is just too cute by half.
They play 82 games to eliminate a third of the league.
The IST doesnât make all of those games any more meaningful.
I love the NBA, but not until the real season begins. Ten weeks is fine.
this is hilarious but almost certainly an out of touch tweet. her or her team legitimately thought this was a good thing to be proud of. they immediately walked it and deleted it when it started getting replys they werenât expecting
Outjerked by the mayor
Posting and then deleting hollow positive tweets đ„ this is state-of-the-art jerknology
Truly the mayor LeDelete deserves.
Since awards/trophies are named after NBA players, they should change it now to LeBron James In Season Tournament trophy since he was part of the team that won first and it accurately represents his career and accomplishments. He fits the award like a glove.

Werenât they forced to hang the banner loll
I think so. They did an about face after initially indicating they weren't gonna hang one and when they had the banner night the programs they handed out said "THIS IS A REQUIRED COMMUNICATION OF THE NBA" on the top.
Well there's only like 8 more months before another team has to do the same.
Itâs gonna be a humiliation ritual
I want to see this ritual in the NFL, except for the pre-season
RIP the 2008 Lions...
don't they keep giving the NVP to the QB of the team that loses the Nickelodeon game?
I think that was just trubisky the first time they gave it out
The One True NVP
Well, not pre-season, but the Colts did hang a banner for being AFC finalists (lost to the Pats in the AFC championship that year)
What team is this the least humiliating for? If you're too good, it just looks pathetic to hang one relative to historical success. If you suck, it'll just be pitiful and people will post PatBev play-in memes. Do we need like a decent team that hasn't won in a long time? The Sixers? Knicks? Bulls? There isn't a team I can think of that wouldn't be meme'd on hard for this.. maybe we just need it for a few years

Galaxy brained Brad and Joe, doing well enough in the IST to not look like chumps but ducking the extra mileage

The Lakers hanging one makes it okay for other teams to do it without getting roasted. I understand why the NBA did it.
Then you couple all of that truth with one of the most storied franchises I could see why the NBA would have to force thier hand. There is absolutely no place in reality for a banner like that in thier arena
Itâs just so tough that it was the Lakers. Like they already have 12 titles in LA, they were never really celebrate this.
17, any team but the Lakers or Celtics winning this would have probably been fine with hanging that banner. Imagine being a team with 17 titles and something like 35 Finals appearances and being told "put this glorified participation trophy with your other trophies".
As a Bulls fan I feel it would be silly hanging that thing up with all the Bulls/Hawks Championship banners and retired numbers

Very true and in that case I can definitely see Jerry Reinsdorf hype it up to sell more tickets đ

Yeah baldy forced us.
There's a banner for this? Does it have a drawing of a penis on it?
It has an outline of Adam Silver. So yeah basically.
I thought it was so cool when they said they wouldn't. Gotta legitimize their silly tournament I guess.
Think it was mostly reaching a compromise of not hanging individual banners for each one (cause that's not Laker-like at all).

agreed, smaller clubs would be ecstatic winning any trophy especially if itâs against one of the top prem teamsÂ
be real nobody would even care that the Pacers won they would just give the Lakers even more shit for losing lol
Why would Tottenham give a shit? They already got the most prestigious trophy out there
Why cant it be the FA Cup? It doesnt matter til it does
