Get on the raps train now. We just duffed out a much celebrated hawks team. Definitely the dark horse of the east. The knicks are the front runner and the bucks will surprise a lot of people. But don't be so surprised to see the knicks and raps in the ECF

I don't think they even need Fox.

I'm not sure I like the fit.

Based on their five games together?

No, from watching Fox in general.

But I never really rated him.

Long term - not really, Harper and Castle will be stars and there's a thing called salary cap, but this year - he'll be helpful. Spurs have star power, defense, ballhandlers, shooters, role players and depth, so let's hope that they'll have health as well.

Dumb foul by Gobert

It feels like they could get a piece of pieces that fit better than Fox. But I wouldnt write Fox off just yet tho. The best player he's played with was Sabonis and he did some good things in Sacramento, so I'd be interested to see what he can do when paired with Wemby for at least several months.

Fox is literally the Achilles heel of the team. He is the only player that you can bait into taking more shot than Wemby. And on defense, teams will look to target him

Wemby will be a GOAT, whatever - but Castle and Harper are so so good since the preseason. And still plenty of assets to build around this core, oh, and there's Fox somewhere lurking. And their role players department is also strong. They may be the biggest threat to Thunder this year already.

Completely agree with this post

I'd go with Orlando as the dark horse of the East.

We should give them a chance together. Fox acknowledged he's not the #1 guy now. Adjustments are expected. Should benefit both.

Pretty clear offensive foul by Edwards on that shot.
