Gonna wait until January to call it, but you boys have persevered and defended the allegations against you! I will be the first to apologize if the Wolves sustain this.

We laughed at Kyrie/Luka Mavs as well, and they're really playing ball right now. Maybe most of these trades will work in time


They do lol and people already dogging Dame (he’s not being used right in Milwaukee) and Harden (way too much overlapping skill sets on the clippers) must’ve forgot the big 3 we’re terrible their first 20 games or so and that’s with the 2 best players in the world and another top 20 guy.


In order for any of those high profile trades to be considered a possible success they need to get out of the first round. I know you guys are not celebrating that a possible playoff seed is a success, are you?

A winning record in the first two weeks of November is a very low bar.

Id take Giddey and picks if I were OKC. Zion is awesome but hes starting to trend as mentally insufficient.

Once Detroit figures out how to play defense theyre going to be tough.

Its wild looking at their team and all the lottery talent on it. I swear every member of their team is a lotto pick. Either their own or someone elses.

I’ve noticed the same thing. They’ve got top-10 draftees coming off the bench and a 10-man rotation where almost everyone was drafted in or just outside the lottery. Surely this is the last year that they can tank before having to consolidate players and compete.

Gordon has to be one of the most surprising Player arcs in the league for me-- He's so good at his role in Denver. Never imagined him becoming such a high quality, high IQ player but he's playing amazing ball. Don't recognize him at all

Joker undoubtedly best player in the league

Playing as a third teir go-too player is is best fit.

Before the draft, I didn't really like Dick but to be honest, I didn't know much about Dick. I'm starting to like Dick now that I've got a taste of Dick. Dick's got some good stuff in there just waiting to come out. Just give Dick some time and hopefully Darko can massage it out.

Horford consistently turning the 2nd-3rd most dominant player in the world into his bitch every time they match up is so wild to me. Embiid really isn’t anything special when he’s not getting bailed out by the refs and getting 15 free throws a game if we’re being honest.
