This year is probably OKC's shot, they're not going to pay a max to both Jaylen Williams and Holmgren.

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

Re: Around the League: 2024-25 Season
AG gonna be out for a few weeks with DEN.
Should we have a dedicated DEN pick tracker? I have a feeling its gonna be better that the mid-20s range we envisioned before

Re: Around the League: 2024-25 Season
Hawks have really pulled a gem out of Jalen Johnson as a pick. After his first couple of seasons you might wonder if he’d make it or not. 3rd year break out and he looks to be pushing the growth again in his 4th year.

Re: Around the League: 2024-25 Season
This Hawks team is good man. Hadn’t properly watched them this season, but so many of their choices seem to be coming together.
- Rizzler is legit and already contributing to wins.
- Daniels fits Trae better than DeJounte did
- Jalen Johnson is a stud
- Trae looks ready to be a leader
- Quin Snyder is at the helm

One was a B2B they lost by 3 points so I’d give them a pass there.
Apart from Trae and Capela they’re a young team so they’ll have a learning curve. I like the pieces they’ve assembled though.

Re: Around the League: 2024-25 Season
Man East is going out sad. Aside of Cavs and Celtics ,most teams who play vs West look so bad.

They give me UTA vibes …tear up reg season, locked down in playoffs. When Snyder was coach, UTA looked SO good but…

Well the Bucks are just a **** show due to bad fit and coaching
We lost 1 player, but our best scoring option on an already limited offense so it makes sense. Nothing to do with the organization
But the sixers are just a disaster in so many ways

Re: Around the League: 2024-25 Season
Celtics, Cavs, Knicks maybe , those are only relevant teams on East.
76ers really dig themselfs into deep one, they will start winning once Embiid returns and Maxey gets back.
Bucks on other hand... My long lasting negative opinion on Rivers probably does not make me objective, but hiring AI for coach would be better than him. Playing without coach would be massive improvment over him.
I have massive respect for Clippers and Lue who once again proves he can get best from everybody. With megamax of dead salary cap in Kawhi they are 5-4 and getting Powell and Zubac playing like borderline allstars. Btw Harden plays defense. Strange new world

If the season ended right now, the Hornets, Nets, and Pistons would all be in the post-season.

The 1-7 Sixers is closer to the 3-seed than the current 3-seed-Knicks is to the Cavs.
