Miami 2nd in the east at 9-4. I still have them hovering around 500 and finishing outside the top 5.

Same. They've played a **** ton of home games so far. I think maybe just 2 road games. They're losses are coming

The sked has been light but I'm not so sure on this. They look much deeper than last year. Whiteside has been even better and Bosh has been spectacular. Together they anchor the leagues #2 defense. If Dragic starts playing better to help prop up th e offense I think this is a top 4 team at worst, i just don't see who out of of the next group is good enough to knock them down a peg.

The Denver white sleeve jersey is nice. They're soccer like and work well. Would buy.

Curry with the nasty in-&-out move

warriors destroying the lakers man... those guys are too good... idk why everyone hates them so much, but i felt they got so disrespected last year with everyone talking about how they wouldnt have won without the injuries and now theyre proving to everyone that theyre legit...

Curry is making a strong case for himself in the GOAT debate. This season so far is on par with Jordan and Lebron's best. He doesn't have anything close to resembling a stacked team, yet he's leading them to the best start in NBA history (and it should be mentioned, with a 35 year old rookie coach).

Why would any Raptor fan be jealous? We should be ashamed that our idiot GM didn't make a push to draft Curry for our own team. He pursued a "winning culture" instead (a decision many of our fans stand by to this day).
