2019-20 NBA Season Discussion

[Colbinii]

Is there any sort of consensus on who is the better offensive and overall player between Towns and Jokic?

look at the record by the end of the year if KAT can't make wolves a PS team ... he is not in the conversation of Joker

So if Joker wins 52 games and makes the PS and Towns wins 44 games and misses the post-season that's your barometer?

KAT's team is considerably worse though...

I would say the gap between supporting casts is larger.

Harden 2-18 from 3? wtf?

[GSP]

No Rubio or Ayton and Phoenix is still defending at a high level.....Booker has even done a decent job so far.

[eminence]

I've been quite impressed by what I've seen from the Suns tonight, probably not a playoff team, but lots better than I expected.

[Basileus777]

How long till Russ gets blamed for Harden's jumper disappearing?

[Bidofo]

Can’t lie, these Suns are pretty fun to watch. Much more than last year. And Bookers defensive improvement is quite noticeable. Still some mistakes, but much more effort.

[The High Cyde]

Suns are bringing it tonight, fun team to watch.

[GSP]

Theyve brought it all 3 games of the season so far. I thought theyd fall apart after Aytons suspension. Now Rubios out and theyre still going strong. Very impressive

[GSP]

Booker just outplayed Kawhi...........arguably on both ends of the floor

[Dr Spaceman]

Harden 2-18 from 3? wtf?

That was probably one of the 5 worst games he’s played in his career. He looked drunk out there at times. Capped it off by sp9king the ball in his own face lol.

[The-Power]

I know there are still many skeptics of Trae Young out there. But man, this guy has the potential to be the best offensive player in this league. The way he sliced up a great Orlando defense was so impressive. His floater game is already top-tier, he has crafty finishes, knows how to draw contact, his handles and hesitation moves are likewise top-tier already and can get anywhere he wants on the court. Excellent court vision and some of his passes are due to openings only he can see. Shot selection is much better. If he can just become more consistent, as most players do with age, watch out.

Can’t lie, these Suns are pretty fun to watch. Much more than last year. And Bookers defensive improvement is quite noticeable. Still some mistakes, but much more effort.

Look, Booker is clearly a talented player but – as many young players do – he needs guidance in the NBA. The Suns were a terrible environment for a talented player that was asked to do a lot offensively on a crappy team because nothing else was there. Now we are starting to see what maturation and a more stable environment can do. Booker has the chance to be a top-tier offensive player and a non-terrible defender. Here's to hoping that he can continue down this path.

How have the Wizards managed to get rid of Otto Porter, Kelly Oubre and Satoransky and have absolutely nothing to show for it?

When they have the worst record in the NBA it will show.

OKC looks like a title contender compared to this Warriors team

[Fadeaway_J]

It's weird to me that this is the team Golden State ended up with, knowing for months that KD leaving was a strong possibility.

[Dr Spaceman]

I know GSW’s defense is already a meme but holy **** OKC is gonna hang 160 on them

And frankly I hope watching this team botch screens and throw passes to ghosts makes people appreciate Iggy, Shaun, Bogut et al. This offensive system is hellishly complicated and I hope people realize you can’t just plug anyone in and expect magic. The Warriors chemistry was very specific to all the talent they amassed in that 2013-15 period.
