Random Other NBA Teams Discussion

Things going well in Miami. Wonder what Butler did.


Elsewhere... the Grizz are really good.

 

Jimmy for Russ?




Also....

 

their guy is the real COY two years running and nobody talks about it at all. instead, we get book-length praise of ty lue for falling behind in games and series and then winning half of them.

 

Underrated


Interesting that Kobe didn't do it

 

damn, i didn't realize the suns are 60-14. that's pretty crazy

those 3-peat lakers teams always seemed to lose against the crappiest teams or else kobe would be on that list multiple times

 

eh, note the increasing frequency with time. the counting stats aren't the same.

if you think booker's in the zip code of those names (or harden, for that matter), i've got a bridge to sell you.

 

Funny that Ariza was on that shooting chart at all.

 

lol missed that. the chart rewards longevity as much as shooting. honestly, trae young being on it is probably the most shocking thing. though i guess that's really the "logo" shot, which wasn't taken by anyone for any reason until the last three or four years.

 

My All NBA picks

1st team Jokic, Embiid, Giannis, Luka and Booker

2nd team Towns, Derozan, Tatum, Trae CP3

3rd team Gobert, Lebron, Jaylen Brown, Curry and Ja

Honorable mentions DeJounte Murray, Donovan Mitchell, KD, Bam Adebayo, Zach Lavine and Harden

 

ja on first team over booker. booker on second team over trae.

i can't put gobert on all-nba teams anymore, and i'd have his teammate over him, too.

i put kd over jaylen brown, too.

but mostly i agree.

 

Shocking to see Boston and Toronto up in the top 6. Cleveland, Chicago and Miami free falling

 

the bunching in the top 4 is very interesting. have to imagine everyone's going to try to avoid bkn in the first round--will there be tanking for 3rd/4th?

boston in the top 6 was expected prior to the season, right? but not the 1 seed. toronto is definitely surprising to me, as is cleveland, even with their relative swoon.

milwaukee is quietly in decent position to defend their title.

 

Remember when few months ago we were all laughing at C Bags? They were losing left and right... good times

 

yeah, even more frustrating that they did it by committing to defense while we engaged in an active war against the concept of defending.

 

Even when watching them, I can't wrap my head around how they're THIS good.

Pulling for them to come out of the West and then anyone but Philly in the East. Would like to see the Bulls but don't see them getting by the 6ers, Nets, Cs or Bucks.

 

Been hearing a lot about defense is highly overrated though.

:THT Heart Hands:

 

Yea they're killin it

 

MVP might have to go to Booker. He helped take down the No.1 team in the East

 

I’d like them to be the dark house out West as well but their youth will get exposed in the playoffs
