The contrived vilification of Malika Andrews has reached a tipping point in c/nba@nba.space

I get so many YT recommendations about her because I watch NBA content and it’s all so unhinged, like she’s not reading from a script and beholden to producers. People have a bizarre and unhealthy obsession with her.

How many other professional leagues besides the NBA have a higher level of competition compared to NCAA Division I? (alien.top)
 

I would love to have more knowledge of international basketball but I don’t. I feel I can safely assume the G-League, Euro League, Spanish League. How far does the rabbit hole go before we get to NCAA Division I. We always joke about guys signing with China, but is that league really that bad? Interested to hear some different perspectives.

It seems like he’s pretty firm and confident in his pre-season rankings and is trying not to overreact over a 1 month sample size. He definitely moved teams like the Thunder and Timberwolves up in a more dramatic way compared to others, but the majority of his rankings are directly based on where he had them a month ago, and I think that’s fine.
