I go over for sure on the Warriors. That’s a lock unless the curse of the San Francisco Forty Niners hits the team.

There are at least 8 players in next years draft that will be very interesting.

Wait till the warriors make a solid trade/FA signings for vets, then quickly bet the farm on the over..it’s easy to do if one was living in Vegas

I think I will take them for the over, the 8/1 to win the West, and the 12/1 to win the Finals.

Most teams don’t really play that intense of defense in the regular season unless it’s a real wake up for it game. Steph, Klay, Wiggins, Paschall, Green will still overwhelm a lot of teams.

Think the Rockets are a little to small, the Clippers don’t have any ball movement, and we should beat the Lakers as long as we don’t totally fumble adding a center and another wing.

I actually think the Nets are the toughest matchup in a 7 game series, unless Kyries personality causes them to self destruct.

Bucks seem too high as they're an old team and they still have Eric Bledsoe.

I can understand the dream for a top pick in the 2021 draft. That should be a fun draft.

For the Warriors, they really have to hit in this year's draft even if they trade down. You notice one player in the top 3 has been moved down in some mock drafts. Who is the possible Superstar, All-Star, and Bust now?

Yep. This is going to be a completely insane second half of the month.

Trades, opening up, the draft 2-3 days later, and then free agency 2 days after the draft..... these team officials are probably going to go 7-10 days with VERY little sleep.

As will I.

Yeah, that's perfect. I currently do some part-time consulting work, and I'm working to rearrange my meeting schedule next Wednesday to avoid ANY conflict with the draft.....

They can't have fans court side, sitting along or just behind the players.

In fact which jurisdictions are going to allow fans in the arenas at all? Maybe FL but certainly not in CA.

Look at the number of positives among MLB and NFL players, when they're having 60 and 16 game seasons.

Some teams will be screwed in key games, having to sit several players.


Also bad, the Warriors used to get a lot out of dining together, even around home games. That's all gone, it's going to have to be takeout and they're discouraged from going out.

Well NBA players may not be able to hold back if they go to a place like FL where the strip clubs are still open whereas they're closed everywhere else.
