I'm gonna start this thread before the tip-off night tomorrow. My predictions of the season are as the following:
Championship: Lakers Finals matchup: Lakers VS Celtics Final four: Lakers, Clippers, Celtics, Bucks
Regular season MVP: Leonard/Giannis/AD Finals MVP: Lebron
ROY: Zion Charlotte Hornets final standing: 14th in the East

I can get behind all of that except for the ROY pick. I think that Zion will miss too much time due to injuries.10/21/2019 12:50:53 PM |

Wow. I'm glad to hear your mostly full agreement.

He's definitely gonna retire soon, one or two more years. But some of his stats will surpass a few HOFs if he remains healthy this year. He just tries to put his name in the history I guess. 10/23/2019 10:59:50 AM |

Zion and Pelican is the biggest joke this season so far. Pelican needs to pray for his comeback. The first two months and 20-30 games will be given up probably. Hopefully he's not another Greg Oden. 10/29/2019 11:06:13 AM |

Heat's Kendrick Nunn is the new Jeremy Lin:
Quote : | "Undrafted point guard Kendrick Nunn has begun his Miami Heat career on a record pace, scoring more points in his first five games than anyone in the past 25 years except Kevin Durant and Jerry Stackhouse.
His 28-point performance against the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday night pushed his points total to 112, the most by any player in their first five games with the Heat -- including LeBron James (102) and Dwyane Wade (57)." |

Hawks fan here. One of dozens. Was super duper salty mcsalterson about drafting Trae and trading the rights to Luka. But now, only moderately salty. Trae Young is a baller. Hawks need ballers.
Luka may be an MVP candidate. But at least Trae is a probable all star. And better than Marvin Bagley's sorry ass. CAWCAWCAWCAW 11/14/2019 2:11:43 PM |
