They're legit. There's a sea change in the league right now.

I don't like it Cap, that team is absolutely enormous on the perimeter. If Paolo becomes a 25-28ppg type scorer they could be the OKC of this conference.

They have an army of talented bigs. Celts are soft inside, I hope the Knicks are studying this game.

He will get close.
But the coaching is all important. You can see the winning elements even in the games they lose.

Fox this year

29.2 PPG 4.0 RPG 5.3 APG 1.7 SPG
48.7% on 21.2 FGA
36.7% on 8.8 3PA
75.0% on 7.1 FTA
56.3% EFG 60% TS

SGA too. He's been unstoppable and assisting more.

I didn’t even mention him b/c I got him as tier 1 MVP candidate (he was my pick). Same for Tatum Luka Ant Man Jokic Embiid.

Wish we could pry Jonathan Isaac from them. Dude is a defensive demon.

No - only team to win a chip in the last 30 years that wasn't top ten in assists was the Shaq/Kobe Lakers - we are currently 28th

Remember two years ago both Fox and SGA were rumored to be available for a strong offer....the FO must identify the next potential such scenario and make a really aggressive offer...

Kyrie just sticking to basketball, once again.

See, he's not helping. There are people with platforms being canceled/losing jobs for being outspoken about the massacre happening in Gaza, and are wrongly being called antisemitic for it. But Kyrie? He has no credibility here because he's an unapologetic antisemitic conspiracy theorist.

Dudes who think that Hitler loved Black people may wanna sit this one out, and Breitbart can stop pretending that they're offended by this when they pump antisemitic propaganda to their readers ad nauseum.

You nailed it.

on one hand obis reaaly good at feeling up the box score with few shots on the other hand, averaging 3 rebounds a year is ridiculous

generational franchise altering misses

Knox <---> SGA
Obi <---> Haliburton

Kinda tired of seeing sh*tty teams like GS and SAS always being on national TV because of who they were or who they might be
