If you were to theoretically remove the best two players from each team what team do you think wins the championship and why?

Who do you think would also be considered “the best player or the MVP” in this league

Bane, Herro, or Maxey for MVP

Memphis maybe? Remove Ja and JJJ

Still starting Smart, Bane, Konchar, Clarke and Adams. With Rose, Kennard, Roddy, Aldama, Tillman off the bench.

Nah, a league without superstars and this one is winning it.

Laker flair and no Austin Reaves?!

Celtics realistically. You'd still have a starting lineup including Jrue, Porzingis, White, and Horford.

Jazz would be strong. John Collins back to the glory days

[–] Knickerbockers-94@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Knicks would have:

  • Robinson/Hartenstein
  • RJ/Sims
  • Hart
  • Grimes/DiVincenzo
  • Quickley/McBride

In this league, that’s definitely a playoff team

Grimes/DiVincenzo

Sounds like some Instagram EDM mash-up. I instinctively looked for the mute button.

[–] kbdfs@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hmm probably Celtics or Clippers? Take out PG and Kawhi and you've still got Russ, Powell, Mann, Zubac. Imagine if they pull that Harden trade off too.

Laker stan-MVP and Champions, Austin Reaves MVP

Dlo, Reaves, Rui, Wood, Hayes

Vincent, Vando, Prince

Boston. Jrue Holiday will be coming off their bench at times this season depending on the matchup. They're winning it.

Chris Paul

GP2

Andrew Wiggins

Draymond Green

Kevin Looney
