I don't think either are likely without potential help from other teams messing up but I feel like the Mavs are better at maybe every position than the Clippers. Tobias Harris, baby

Clearly Yahoo didn't hear about his tribal ceremony earlier this summer. Wow E: Lmao they deleted it with the quickness.

Thanks for blocking the shot in, Joel https://streamable.com/kut3y I love NBA zelah posted:I wonder what a Lillard Kyrie trade would have looked like. If it was going to include a Cleveland 1st rounder I think I’d do it, but who could have known LeBron was doing to leave Kyrie would get injured and you'd have to survive on CJ alone in the playoffs is what!

DC Murderverse posted:i am ostensibly a Timberwolves fan and will be cheering for their success but because they're clearly going to be a slow-moving train wreck until at least the trade deadline, and LeBron has moved to a team that I cannot in good conscious cheer for (except when I'm in LA on vacation and at a Lakers game because I"m not a loving ghoul), Nuggets are the most "fun" out of that list for sure. I'd put the Jazz in the too good list, I think they're right there with the Rockets

BWV posted:I've always found cheering for players and not teams is easier for your "second team." Like if there are a few guys you like, or one guy you love, just try to catch their games. I think we all sorta do this. CBM told you Denver is good (which is true), but he only said it because he's a Jokic stalker. Hey I like Jamal Murray and Gary Harris too

BWV posted:can't deny Jamal Murray. Who as you all remember, I effectively scouted at the PanAM games before he went to Kentucky. I tried to keep the Jokic slobbering out of it by just calling them fun, I think their offense is more enjoyable than any other in the league besides the Warriors. But yes it's basically Jokic fanboyism

The ball was definitely blocked by Embiid but Brown squared up, saw Embiid in the post waiting for him and decided to try to jump over him anyways and the ball still went in so I'm proud of himMazelTovCocktail posted:So for the free league pass trial is it just sign in with your NBA account?

Halfling Wizard Bear posted:I think a lot of the criticism comes from Jokic superfans on the internet who think Malone is underutilizing him, while at the same time giving him no credit for handing a 22 year old, 41st pick, seven foot tall living personification of the Pilsbury Dough Boy the keys to the offense in the first place. I think a lot of old school coaches would have just let him languish on the bench. Turns out that actually doing the basketball playing gets you some credit, a rare thing nowadays

zelah posted:If Nik rocks even a little and Curry can make some shots, I don’t know that the Blazers are going to be bad. Yes they got blown up in the first round, but at the end of the day they had the 3rd best record in the west and Lillard was 1st team. They’re largely the same team with young players that are one year older. Well to be fair the difference between 3rd and 8th last year in the west was 2 games

Spacebump posted:D'Angelo Russell is the __ best point guard on the Nets? Depends on if you consider LeVert a PG or not, he seems to be handling the duties but is kinda nominally a wing If so, 3rd at the moment, but I think a lot of teams have Dinwiddie figured out and D'Lo will work his way back above him. LeVert is the truth tho

Yeah I don't count them out or anything but it's not as easy as "they were third seed last year so they're a lock to make the playoffs this year." The west is a blender
