Like every year, the selections for the NBA All-Star Game were debated. But above all, without Rudy Gobert, without Victor Wembanyama and without Domantas Sabonis, has the NBA really respected the NBA? Is the absence of these Europeans logical or scandalous? Arnaud Valadon, Stephen Brun, Frédéric Weis and Geoffrey Charpille debate it. The Basket Time team will also look at France’s bright future potential in the NBA: with two French people selected for the All-Star Game competitions and a 2024 draft which could prove historic, can France become the best NBA nation? Finally, in the historical part, a look back at these All-Star players… who perhaps never should have been!
The Knicks have just won 16 of their last 19 games. A good series which currently places them in a solid third place in the Eastern Conference. But above all, this sequence highlighted something that we had been feeling for quite some time. Jalen Brunson is the boss of this team and probably its most indispensable player. The former leader of Villanova and Dallas was orphaned by several of his teammates including Julius Randle and OG Anunoby in this series. Despite this, Tom Thibodeau’s men continue to win and look upwards. So is this sustainable over time? Has Jalen Brunson been underrated so far? Pierre Dorian, Frédéric Weis, Alexandre Biggerstaff and Sacha Allix debate it. Finally, in the historical part, focus on the players who went from lieutenant to franchise player in the NBA.
First in the Eastern Conference, the Celtics impress. But with defeats against the Clippers, Milwaukee and even Denver, is Boston’s first place an illusion? Is Joe Mazzulla’s squad strong enough to last in the long term? Pierre Dorian, Stephen Brun, Frédéric Weis and Arnaud Valadon debate it. Also focus on Celtics franchise player Jayson Tatum. With turnovers in money time and contested decisions, is he too limited to lead his team to the title? And finally, in the historical part, the Basket Time team looks at the playing style and personality of a legendary Boston player: Larry Bird.
Basket Time takes stock of the French at mid-season! Is Wembanyama going faster than expected? Will Gobert be DPOY? Who is the best tricolor in the Euroleague? What team composition for France at the Olympics? Cast of the show: Pierre Dorian, Frédéric Weis, Stephen Brun and Arnaud Valadon.
Impressive for several weeks with the Clippers, James Harden seems calmer and more liberated with the California franchise. How can we explain such a change? And above all, do we owe an apology to James Harden, who centralized numerous criticisms when he left the 76ers? Pierre Dorian, Frédéric Weis, Stephen Brun and Arnaud Valadon debate it! Thanks to the most famous bearded man in the NBA, it is the Los Angeles Clippers who are finding smiles and ambition again. Is this team now cut out to aim for the title? And finally, in the historical part, focus on the players most often helped by arbitration with decisions in their favor!
The NBA is back in Paris! This Thursday, the Accor Hotel Arena will serve as the setting for the match between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Brooklyn Nets. Presentation of the poster and review of the forces present with Pierre Dorian, Stephen Brun, Frédéric Weis and Arnaud Valadon who attended the training of the two franchises. Then they will try to project themselves into 2025 to wonder if the Wemby Spurs could be part of the Paris party… And if Gregg Popovich’s men were to set down their bags near Bercy next year, with what status Would Victor Wembanyama return to France? Will he become a dominant NBA player? Unless he already is… And finally, in the historical part, focus on Julius Erving who exploded with the Nets in the ABA (American Basketball Association) before making it big in the NBA.
After 28 straight losses, the Pistons finally won a game. It was a few days ago against the Toronto Raptors. The whole city has been waiting for this victory since October 28, the date of the franchise’s last success. How can we explain such a long drought? Is it a staff, coaching or mental problem? Pierre Dorian, Stephen Brun, Geoffrey Charpille and Killian Vérove debate it. Also focus on Cade Cunningham, American leader of the Pistons. Excellent despite his team’s moribund season, can the former number 1 of the 2021 Draft be considered one of the best American position 1 in the League? Besides, who is the best USA guard in the NBA? And finally, in the historical part, focus on the worst teams in NBA history!
