'25-26 NBA Thread

[MU82]

The Hornets have been looking for their "big man of the future" forever. And they had him in the 2022 draft: Jalen Duren.

But they immediately traded Duren to the Pistons and drafted Mark Williams two picks later.

Duren is averaging 20.3 points and 12.3 rebounds this season for the Pistons; he is part of the young core that has taken the Eastern Conference by storm. Williams was either hurt or ineffective during his short time with the Hornets, who couldn't wait to dump him on some other team.

And that is just one example of why the Hornets always suck.

We'll see how much by storm the Pistons take the NBA by when they aren't playing a G League schedule.  Their wins are over the Rockets (good win), Celtics, Magic, Mavericks, Grizzlies, Jazz, Nets, Sixers (x2), Wizards, Bulls, Pacers.

Spurs without Wemby and Castle vs Grizzlies without Ja is one of the worst games of the year.  Holy hell its bad.
