Pacers could be a 4 seed/50 win team

Memphis -- lottery team?

[–] Pikuturtle1@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Luka easily MVP. His team has needed every bit of his greatness to win

[–] NedStarx11@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I want to say it was was Paul Pierce?? One of the media guys a few weeks ago said “real ballers know that kyrie is the real best player on the Mavs”

Lmao okay then

Heat found a gem in Jaime Jaquez. First week and he’s already guarding Ant for an entire game.

[–] buckwheat6197@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Didn’t he get exposed by Tatum?

[–] 4Chi1ne@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bulls are cooked

We‘ve been cooked since April 28th, 2012.

the spurs instagram is something else. they bitch and complain if wemby doesnt get the ball in one possession.

amd lets not get me started on how much they think tre should start over sochan even tho the experiment has been going well so far

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

The experiment has not been going well, don't know what games you're watching. Sochan got benched in OT last Friday.

I just wish the Thunders to use their 239 #1 picks in their bank account.

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

Doncic is MVP leader.

And barring injuries (to teammates), Tatum, Booker and Giannis won’t be serious MVP contenders.

Too many teammates taking away points … too many blowouts/non-competitive games.

Let these guys play at least 25-30 games before we go on to who is leading an MVP race lol

[–] Nickname-CJ@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It’s called an overreaction for a reason big bro😔

[–] WhatShouldTheHeartDo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Expect the Bulls to do a fire sale and really get into rebuilding

Suns are going to do a lot better than what people are expecting

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

Are suns a top 2-3 team in west?

Already did. Hammered the under on their win total… looking great early

Idk how you could say the bucks making the ECF is all but guaranteed. They played one game against the Sixers without Harden where they benefited greatly from horrible refereeing, Celtics have been good, bucks haven’t inspired much excitement

Here's an actual bold take: Oubre is good

[–] lethalizer@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As an OKC fan Luka is certainly the MVP candidate to watch currently, but I just don't trust that Dallas team at all. Lively is a great prospect and all, but it'll take time for him to become an impactful defender. That D of Dallas is awful.

Once they play against some better disciplined defensive teams, it won't be easy. Luka is great to watch, but he shouldn't shoulder this much of a load if the goal is getting to April in one piece. He's already playing through an injury as is.

You're not wrong, although the first two games this year are exactly the type of games we would've lost last year. So, improved, but a long long way to go

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

Magic are on pace to go undefeated!

[–] NoChanceNoProblem@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The Bulls are so cooked they are carbon.

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

They look like Freddy Krueger if someone left him in an easy bake oven all night.
