If we factor in playoffs you gotta drop embiid and elevate Luka Tatum and Giannis

Lavine is better in a vacuum but I’d rather have Aaron Gordon because he can be effective as a 4th option
Lavine as your 1 or 2 option means you’re never sniffing the 2nd round . Hell maybe not even sniff the playoffs in general.
I’m interested to see how lavine would play as a 3 option on a contender
I was looking at his stats yesterday and I’m really impressed . And not even just the 24/12 on 50/40/90 shooting . But his assist to turnover ratio is crazy good
Not even lowkey PG was top 3 in MVP & DPOY at his peak and led the pacers deeper in the playoffs than Lillard did with the blazers . He been to the conference finals 3x
We’re not talking about last years teams though… they clearly said this year
I think both teams clear . Won’t be easy but it’s just too much firepower for the Cavs to stop. Lebron will dominate but it’s not like he’s facing the raptors or IT Celtics
Jokic lives in his mind rent free like goku used to live in Vegetas head
I’d say 7x all star with 5x all nba should be almost a lock but I think a virtual lock you’ll need closer to 10 if you lack individual accolades. I think the more individual accolades you have the less all stars you can afford to have .
An 8x all star, 5x all nba with an MVP is more of a lock than a 10x all star 3x all nba with no other accolades .
But if that 10x all star also has multiple rings it makes things more interesting .
That’s why you need to look at this with context holistically.
Him and Zingus have literally been the perfect pieces for us .
Jrue’s defense this season has been outstanding . He’s def gonna be a front runner for DPOY if he keeps up the pace like this.
