Getting ready to pelt me with bullets...But I am going on record and flat out guaranteeing If the Wolves(requires beating clips in first play In and not somehow jumping nuggs for 6 seed) play Memphis first round. They win that series.This isnt a "it might happen" or "could happen". Wolves will be in the second round.
Giannis has not reached his ceiling imo. He can still improve his jump shot a lot, polish the turn around over both shoulders, and make better decisions leading to fewer turns. Keep in mind his stats are in 32 mins per game. That step-back triple the other night must have terrified his future opponents. Is it hyperbole that he has greater potential than Jordan or Lebron? I'm starting to think the floodgates could really open the next few years for him. Like maybe: 38 ppg, 15 rebs, 8 dimes on 59% shooting, 35% from distance, 75% FTP. I think this is definitely doable.
There is no way he averages those numbers or shoots that well from 3. His numbers will probably hover around what they are this year, but he’ll polish the jumper but go to the line less, turn the ball over less, etc.
Bucks with one of the worst 4th quarters I have seen from them in the last few years. Everyone looked hesitant. Holiday played with no urgency and Middleton was terrible. Oh well
Portis and Lopez played together all the time last year.
While the Bucks were bad late today, I can’t remember seeing a “good” team more broken than the Jazz. It’s breathtaking how badly they give up leads and in shocking fashion. Not including a meaningless Gobert FT late, they scored 3 points in the final EIGHT minutes and blew a 16 point lead. It honestly almost looked like point shaving. I don’t know what you do, cause Snyder is a good coach, but you kind of may have to blow it up
Simmons and Rusillo are doing a "draft" on players they imagine will not be on their current teams next year. They have Donovan Mitchell as 1, then Jimmy Butler as 2. Others include Randal with the Knicks, Zion, and Ayton.Don't see Zion happening. I could see the others happening.
I guess Embiid is going for the MVP. scoring title 29pts at the half.
