Hey remember when George Hill picked the Kings instead of us? It's the price you pay to load up on talent for the playoffs. But also they free up a bunch of money next summer too.
Luka Doncic is just so much fun to watch. He is such a skilled player and will be a superstar in this league. He scored 11 straight points in the 4th with 3 minutes remaining to get the W for Dallas against Houston. Awesome stuff!
Doncic is destined for greatness. It was pretty amazing how he wasn't the number 1 pick. He was the clear number 1 on my list. He can ball and has proven track record by killing grown professionals in Europe. He continues to do the same thing in the NBA. At 19 years of age. Zo and Ingram apologists, please take note.
BTW watching San Antonio and Houston (CP3, Pringles and Harden) suck has been almost as rewarding as watching us win. Lovin it.
Remember when Morey used e-wins to determine how to build a team and also grabbed that b-ball stats douche from ESPN... well, looks like it didn't work. And I couldn't be more pleased with the result!
Depending on their/our record in the end, so far, the MVP race is between Harden, LeBron and Anthony Davis (if he stays) Also I'm shocked at how well the Raptors are playing after the Derozan trade. Maybe they clashed as teammates more than we'd like to think. Kyle and Kawhi work better.
What's even more shocking is how well they are playing without Kawhi. Very curious to see how they'll do in the PO. The east should be very interesting this year and the green slime may not be as sure to make the finals as most of us anticipated.
Raptors have always performed well during the season, it was the playoffs where Lowry and Derozan would just disappear. Maybe that changes with Kawhi? But yeah that team looks good right now.
The East has 5 of the top 8 records in the league right now. Been awhile since that was true. Yes, their bottom half is pretty bad, but the top is no pushover so far this year. Those top 5 teams can give anybody problems on any given night.
Yes, it's a lot easier to beat the hell out of Chicago, Cavs, Knicks, Nets, Hawks etc... In the west the 2nd worst team is a game away from the playoffs. Even the frigging Kings are winning games. Only awful team is the Suns.
right. it's harder to get separation when you play twice as many games against playoff-caliber teams. those top records are inflated. gs and houston starting the season like they didn't give a s*** hasn't helped, either.
