Yep...just like you'd never heard of Davidson(Step Curry), Weber State(Dame Lillard), or Lehigh(C.J. McCollum) before either right??

Damnit!

Pelicans?? Zion can't shoot at all...let him dunk 4 or 5 times and how else is he going to score? Lonzo can't shoot, JJ Redick is like 36 years old, they not making the playoffs; Mavericks?? Luka cooled off a lot in the final two months of the season, KP is coming off of a torn ACL, Hardaway Jr. throws up more bricks than anybody in the league, they not making the playoffs; Spurs?? DeMarr is a head case who still wishes he was playing in Toronto with Lowry, Aldridge turns 35 this season so his stats could fall off a cliff, their PG is coming off of a torn ACL, Spurs in trouble. Utah will also be in trouble when both Rudy Gobert and lil Mike Conley each miss at least 25 games due to injury. Houston could also take a major step back with Harden turning 30 and CP3 damn near 35. Minnesota has no leadership whatso ever. Even with that childish D-Lo Golden State gonna struggle big time without Klay for most if not all of the season and with KD lone gone.

I do not follow many teams out west. For some reason I think you are wrong and they are going to win games they should lose. Now I hate the lakers I think they have chance to win more games than the lakers. LJ old as the hills AD loves to not play basketball but get paid and a gimp at center. Sure it could work out for that train wreck? I could be wrong for the first time in my life but I don't think so:-)

Agree with most, bottom 10 team, decent chance the pick conveys for us next draft. I actually hope OKC deals Westbrook to then bump MEM up a spot

Zion is like 300 lbs. Not sure he will make it to all star break. Golden state could just shut it down?

And how'd the Warriors do in Steph's rookie season?

And weren't all of those guys like 3 years older?

Look at your roster, man. Your team is gross.

I’d be surprised if the pick conveys this year to be honest..I already plan it in my head as a 2021 unprotected first

So far this summer, the Grizz have dumped Conley, Bradley, Korver, Parsons, CJ Miles, Delon Wright, and soon, Iguodala.

That team doesn't give a ****, guys.

Morant/Jevon Carter
Josh Jackson/Dillon Brooks/Grayson Allen
Kyle Anderson/Caboclo/Solomon Hill
Jared Jackson/Crowder/Brandon Clarke/Rabb
Valanciunas/Miles Plumlee/Howard

Is that about right? Yikes lol.

They're gonna suck this season. That's part of their plan. Add a top5 pick and then try to be as good as possible in 2021 when the pick is unprotected.

Been lurking the entire time. Needed the break for a few months after last season ended on such a sour note. Can’t stay away though. I’m a sucker for summer league
