And the Bucks thought they would be better with Dame than Jrue.

I wonder if OKC would be willing to trade Chet and picks for Giannis.

Need the Clippers to put the Warriors in their place. Dubs fans being all loud and braggy early in the season.

Why would they trade a modern NBA player for a guy that can't shoot the ball into an ocean?

People who said you can't win with Dame are looking right. Great offensive talent but overall seems like James Harden lite.

That's why I kept saying don't even think about trading JB for Dame when it was uncertain the Cs would sign JB to that 300m contract.

Dame had a decade to take the Blazers to another level and he couldn't do it.

It's not Dame Time, it's Lame Time! :lol:

Thunder are the best team in the West. Will most likely be them or LA in the finals.

I wouldn't count out Dallas just yet.

The Mavs are a better playoff team than they are a regular season team.

Too early to declare the Lakers a contender because of injury history.
But I'm wishing for a Lakers vs. Celtics finals.

True, Dallas and Phoenix are contenders as well.

Only two remaining undefeated teams in the East. Cavs vs. Knicks and Cs vs. Bucks tomorrow.

EDIT: Only two remaining undefeated teams in the West: Lakers and Thunder.

Good job, Harden and co. Curry going down made it easier.

The poor Warriors went from dominant to exposed with Curry experiencing a mild to moderate ankle sprain.
Will he be healthy when they play the Celts on November 6th?

Return to Boston Celtics
