Maxey went off for 50 tonight. It looks like he can ball a little bit.

I may have been underrating him. He’s looked very good this year.

Based on KD and Harden's exploits, Steph and Bron made creating Superteams look way too easy. Lets see how those teams, plus Bucks, do this year

It’s still early, but it’s easy to look around the League and laugh. KD assembled another fragile Superteam, Ayton still doesn’t give a damn, and Dame is old. I can’t even begin to understand what’s up with Harden and the Clips.

We’ve had our share of bad luck with injuries, but there’s still plenty to feel good about. We even got a response from Spo about Jovic!

Hadn’t seen that Spo quote on Niko til now. I’m looking forward to seeing him play at Sioux Falls soon. He needs minutes and to get reps. I think he’ll kill it in the GLeague.

I told yall we should draft Maxey.
We could have had him and Bane and its 2 or 3 titles. What a shame. What a bad job.
Alot in here has seen the talent. Why the scouts did not? Look who we got instead. Wow.

Maxey is taking the type of leap, that shows a clear delineation between a good player and a star player. It took having to get rid of James Harden to finally allow him to expand his game. He was being held back having and old ball dominator next to him relegating him to an off ball scorer. When in the playoffs you could clearly see he is an on ball scorer, him and Embiid together are a good match.

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.
