Bol Bol is becoming what John Hammond thought Thon Maker would be. Steal of the offseason.

Bol Bol is very fun to watch. This applies to the whole ORL team, when Cole Anthony is not playing :D

Then you'd have 17 teams in the East and 13 in the West.

Moving Minnesota East makes the most sense because of the pre-existing upper midwest rivalries from other sports, and because Minnesota is completely isolated in the West right now. New Orleans and Memphis are at least near OKC, the Texas teams, and each other in the West.

Luka fans are going to quickly become the Harden fans of yesteryear when Giannis was doing his B2B.

Looks like Cam Johnson tore his meniscus. Absolutely brutal injury for the suns. Wonder if this speeds up a Crowder trade or possible return.

Sabonis 2-9 on FT in a game that goes to OT
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I think everybody thinks they belong in the east. But which east team would you swap with them, geographically-wise? None make sense.

It’s been said plenty times but Paolo is incredible, I figured he was going to be good but nobody was hailing him as a generational prospect and that’s what he’s looked like so far.

Their shot making makes their ceiling incredibly high in any given game. Pretty **** jealous.

Absolutely makes me sick I can't remember the bucks ever having back to back nights of 47% then the very next night topping that by shooting 54% from 3 scares the sh.. out of me

The Wizards being in the southeast is still one of the funnier ones for me lol. Wizards should be in the Atlantic.

Eh, this 54% shooting comes after two sub 33% nights, that’s the 3 point variance for you, I think in Bud’s 1st year we had a couple 50% or nearby shooting performances on pretty high volume.

Yeah, we had a 4-game stretch of shooting 47% from 3 in our title season, including the NBA record with 29 3s one of those games.

Looks great when the 3s are going in. We’ll see what’s up if the teams face off in the PS again, hopefully at full strength this time around.

We've had good nights but I don't think saying their shooters/shot making >> ours is a crazy opinion. Particularly if we're talking playoffs.

I don’t think it’s a crazy opinion, but “absolutely makes me sick” is a bit excessive lol. I guess I’m just not super envious of any team in the league right now.
