The Rockets. I had no idea how much effect Udoka would have, and he has them being one of the best defenses in the league. Huge surprise for me.

The Magic being good is not a surprise for me. I wouldn’t have picked them to have a record THIS good this early, but I had them as a playoff team before the season started.

This is probably the Thunder fandom’s dream player, but I just can’t see Ainge letting Markkanen go. The Jazz already got 7 firsts and 3 swaps from the Mitchell and Gobert trades. Will getting even more really move the needle that much? I thought OKC should try to get Lauri and Olynyk, but I just can’t see Utah letting Lauri go.

How was Primo blackballed from the league? He just signed with the Clippers.

Once they figure out how to rebound consistently.

Damn, the Thunder cause their second players-only meeting already this season?

Gotta be Jokic. That man makes basketball look effortless, you have to respect it. I think my next pick would be Jrue Holiday, because he does all the little things to help the team win, will take on any assignment, is a great teammate, and doesn't seem to care about his own numbers.

The Thunder are 8-4 with multiple blowouts and I still don’t feel like we’ve seen them play a complete game yet. Tonight Shai had a weird game, last game Chet was bad, almost every game before that Giddey was bad. I’m so excited to see what this team looks like when everyone clicks.

Random question for OP or anyone else who knows: How do you create these Streamable links? I used to be able to create Streamable links by just pasting Twitter URLs and Streamable would automatically extract the video, but that doesn't seem to work anymore. I get an error message every time. Do you have to pull them from another source?

SGA on triple-double watch at halftime. In points, rebounds .... and steals?

That the ownership group has never been willing to go into the tax. People fixate on the Harden situation from 12 years ago and act like that’s happened throughout the team’s history. But the ownership group added a billionaire since then, and not only have they paid the tax. They’ve paid the repeater tax. They had the highest payroll in the league at one point.

What’s Presti cooking? The ability to use Bertans’ contract to take on some salary is interesting. Probably just gonna be trading a 2024/25 pick for a pick further in the future, though. Presti loves spreading out those picks.

 

Here’s his tweet in all its glory.

Magic Johnson is in midseason form already. I think we’re all excited about the return of the NBA, but this tweet just reminded me how much I’m looking forward to Magic’s postgame tweets.

Thanks Magic.
