Added Bane, but they still appear to be the worst shooting team in the NBA.


If Spo wasn't so hard-headed and played Ware more, especially alongside of Bam, against the magic, they would have crushed the magic.


The "what if" game is silly. What if the Magic didn't have 20+ turnovers (many self inflicted) and 13 missed free throws in multiple games lol

Not sure why Pelicans don't feed Queen more. He's found good position a few times in the paint against a smaller defender, and shouts out for a pass, and just gets ignored.

One thing that weird to me about Cooper is his motor.

I thought he’d show a really high motor based on watching him in hs and college but he really hasn’t so far. Maybe he needs to get in better physical shape?

Castle needs to get his turnovers under control. Very Westbrook/Cade Cunningham-esque to start the season.

Kidd rolled out guard lineup of Hardy and DLo and they are getting absolutely destroyed on defense. OKC doing whatever they want.

It's why many Laker fans never liked him, except a few selected ones. If his not shooting the lights out his pretty much useless

If Ajay Mitchell plays like this all season, he will easily win 6MOY.

He's playing out of position. He is most comfortable at the 4 but it's where AD usually plays. And with AD in the lineup he's very hesitant to attack or even shoot.

I'm pretty confident at this point VJ is gonna run away with ROY over Flagg and it won't be particularly close.

I also think the Mavs were massively overrated by pre-season media types. Not convinced they're a playoff or play-in team.
