The only part of Vishnu's game that changed over the years is his point of attack defense disappeared which used to be a real weapon. Otherwise, everything he does is the same except his timing on all his jumpers and layups got fucked up when he lost his bounce, so now those are bricks. And he gets a lot less easy shots due to not having a 100 speed stat anymore.

Ramadan Kyrie has the shot of the year last year, Luka had his best year when he was also at his fattest, Lively/PJ/Gafford/Marhsall/Grimes will be a solid core .

Klay is either OK or he has the same value as Tim Hardaway JR, so no real difference

Wait a minute. What if the Mamba Mentality was a ruse by Kobe to sabotage threats to the Lakers? He was the most loyal Laker since Magic. Think about his targets: Randle, who left the Lakers for the Pelicans; Westbrook, drafted by the Thunder; Tatum, drafted by the Celtics. What if Kobe was deliberately trying to ruin them all under the guise of "helping" them, to ensure that they'd never threaten LA's dominance?

this brief interaction between Morant and Iisalo was pretty interesting. looks pretty positive to me, maybe Iisalo told him to use some move in practice and he did it? any lip readers? regardless, clear indicator that Iisalo has challenged Ja in some way, and there's an existing relationship, in the beginning, egos will be clashing, so Iisalo has to earn Ja's trust.
Jenkins turning away and ignoring it is also pretty intriguing, knows his time will soon be over as the head coach? Iisalo is responsible for most of the coaching for Grizzlies, he takes care of at least offence, content of trainings and scouting, so by far the most important member of the entire coaching staff.

Iisalo is totally focused on the grindset, he hasn't given a single interview to neither international nor Finnish media after joining the Grizzlies staff. prior to that, by the least, he was giving them on a monthly basis.

I don’t know why people are surprised Klay can still shoot, that was never the issue. The real surprise is he can still play defense. I don’t know if he was phoning it in for Golden State or what, but he definitely isn’t as cooked as people were claiming.

I was at the game last night: not great. Stadium was half full, and even that half was mostly Celtic fans. Celtics were playing all their "who?" players by the start of the 4th. Wizards have no real PG while Brogdan is hurt. It was ugly. Poole kept them in it for a quarter though.

SGA actually outplayed Luka when they faced in the playoffs (albeit Luka was hobbled). You’re right though that they’ve done nothing to solve the issue of Lively sonning Chet, and Kyrie going nuclear, and add to that they now also would have to find a way to keep Klay in check, the Thunder simply don’t have the tools on hand to deal with the Mavs.

My picks for 10/25: we split the ticket last night as the Spurs showed that they haven't really improved much in the off-season. The Wolves game easily hit the over for us though. But tonight we got a good card. Let's smash those bookies.

this week: 5-3

We took the Raptors ATS in their season opener and they got beat up badly. They have a ton of injuries and look to be already in tank mode. 76ers are in a good bounce-back spot here after getting whooped by the Bucks in their season opener. Sixers shouldn't have too many problems in this game.

>Pistons +10.5
I liked what I saw from the Pistons in the first 3 quarters of their season opener. I think the Cavs are getting overvalued after a big win over the Raptors. This is just way too many points. I think the Cavs do win this game, but Pistons are going to be scrappy this year.

>Pacers +4.5
I don't think the Knicks should be favored in this game. Pacers won the season series and playoff series against the Knicks last season. Pacers are running back the same team that had a historically great offense last season, and the Knicks still have to figure out their identity with all the new pieces. I think the Pacers keep this game close and possibly win it outright.

>Jazz +3.5
Jazz were the 5th best ATS home team last season and I think this is a great bounce back spot for them. Yes the Warriors got a big win in their season opener, but it was against the Blazers who I think will end the season with the worst record in the league. I think Jazz have a good chance of winning this game outright.

>Pelicans -5.5
This is simply a fade of the Blazers who I think are the absolute worst team in the league this year. I'm going to be fading them early and often early in the season before the books catch up and start spoting them double-digit spreads. Pelicans should have absolutely no problem covering this spread.

Good luck, and don't bet what you don't have.

Yes, OUR rapties.

>>145271192
Curious to see if Hartenstein can handle Lively. I doubt it, but we'll see. Who could they realistically get that could put them over the Mavs? I know they have resources out the ass to trade, but teams aren't going to want to give up a premium big when they're in short supply these days

Is he the best coach in the NBA or could most people succeed with that roster?
>>
>>145271312
You gotta remember that it was extremely close to a game 7 despite Thunder being outrebounded and killed on the glass. With iHart and Caruso I really think Thunder will beat Mavs in 6 or 7. But yeah Thunder and Mavs are just way ahead of every other western conference team unless Nuggets pull of miracle trades somehow.
>>
>>145271268
Lively is the Bill Russell to Chet and Wemby’s Chamberlain. The latter 2 are better in a vacuum, but head to head, Lively is perfectly equipped to beat them.
>>
>>145271375
>unless Nuggets pull of miracle trades somehow.
They really need to do that, at least 2 solid bench players
I don't understand how the Nuggets front office believed that they can play with rookies and Westbrick when the starters are out resting
>>
>>145271375
It really does feel like all the Thunder need is a reliable rebounder. Sabonis comes to mind, but good luck getting him
>>
>>145271365
>could most people succeed with that roster?
Isn't their best player some corny role player?

iHart is legit one of the best rebounders in the league and probably the best offensive rebounder. They will be fine with him.

The only player that I’ve seen that can really give Lively fits is somebody like KP, and Hartenstein is no KP. Dirk would have probably also been pretty good at handling him, but bottom line is, the guys that can mess with him are incredibly rare and possess really unique skillsets.
>>
>>145271432
because their GM is 2smart4you retard who is trying to double timeline shit when that never worked

>>145271565
>just got lucky with drafting a top10 player ever in Jokic
Exactly, this team has a championship just out of pure luck
At first I though that they didn't want to waste money getting good players but that contract extension they signed with Murray showed that is not the case
So what the fuck is going on with them, do they not care about winning anymore rings or are they that delusional to think that Jokic can play with any player in the league and win every time?

Based on everything we've seen, I think these are the early season power ranking
Title Contenders
1.Boston Celtics: looks like the best team and current favorites to repeat
2. Dallas Mavericks: Fresh off a finals run and added Klay Thompson,
I don't think Klay is washed or at least THAT washed, I think he just hated playing for the Warriors after 2022 and just stopped giving a shit, he'll play better than his last 2 seasons
3. OKC: Young team that added better pieces (Caruso, Hartenstein)
put out a statement game by crushing the 2023 Champions, will compete with Dallas for 1st seed in the West
Teams that can make a deep playoff run and pull an upset
1. Phoenix Suns: improved dramatically in the off season (got the best starting point guard they possibly could and have a solid bench unit, got a better head Coach, both rookies look like they can make an immediate impact, I think if they trade their current center for a better one (can stretch the floor, be a lob threat and finish at the rim, be a rim protector) and add another big player that can rebound and play defense, they can possibly be a title contender
2. Lakers: I think JJ Reddit will actually make this team play better than last year, AD and LeBron still look like they can compete at the highest level, this could be their best Lakers team since their championship run (2020)
3. Grizzlies: Have Ja back, drafted the best Center in this years draft, young scrappy team that will surprise people this year
And here are the rest of the teams that will probably make the playoffs at the very least
Bucks
Warriors
Pacers
Magic
Warriors
Cavs
Nuggets
Pelicans
Rockets

Yeah I forgot about a few teams
Timberwolves: I think they got worse with the Kat trade but they'll make the playoffs at least, 2nd round is their ceiling this year
Knicks: same as the Timberwolves, I think
The Kat trade helped them more than the Twolves, but I think it'll take 1 season for this Knicks team to reach their potential, but they'll reach the playoffs
76ers: Their 2 best player are injury prone and their player is already load managing before the season started, they could possible make the wcf but they can't beat the Celtics.

Randle is winning a title/FMVP this year on the Knicks and still won’t get a max

>>145272395
the nugs' starters are consistently at the top of the league. The problem they have is needing to build huge leads or climb out of holes because their bench consistently loses by 15+ and after a while malone just starts playing them more minutes which wears them down
>>
I feel like anybody in the media that says the Lakers can contend is just doing a bit. No amount of decent roleplayers here and there is enough to overcome the fact that their fundamental core of old man LeBron + AD just isn’t gonna cut it against these teams that are running out 3 or 4 strong player lineups and/or have MVP level stars leading them.

He had plenty of "CHET HAS ARRIVED" games last year, and vanished in the playoffs. I need to see some more consistency before I start truly believing. That being said, I feel like he's already a top 5 rim defender. The rebounding leaves a LOT to be desired though

i think people looking at the kat trade are wrongly looking at it as kat for randle straight up, it's actually kat for randle + divicenzo while gaining cap space which will probably be beneficial for the wolves in the end

and he is still better than most of our team. We have guys who are getting paid three times as much who don't play at all, and guys who are paid twenty five times as much and suck as much as he does
our issue is not westbrook, our issue is money wasted on bums, bitches and clowns

to me it's because westbrook is a former mvp so he's still a big name guy that i always liked, but he has regressed so horribly that having him on the floor is an active detriment even if you were to get him for free, and point guards always draw more attention because they run the offense
>>
>>145274356
cool, and now guess why we have Westbrook out instead of Zeke Nnaji, Jaylen Picket or Hunter Tyson
>>
>>145274292
>he is still better than most of our team
this is actually very arguable. Most bad players are passively bad and really aren't noticeable unless they're getting cooked on D and/or airballing everything. Westbrook is actively bad with his recklessness AND gets cooked on D and airballs everything
>>
Chettie not doing the same numbers with 3 dudes guarding him every possession he a Shai gravity babby. Wemgoat doing allat by himself

>>145274378
its not arguable, there is a reason why he is on floor over other people, and that reason that they are even worse
we are playing westbrook because our other options are even worse.

>there is a reason why he is on floor over other people
it is entirely because of his history and not his actual ability. I'm not saying that the nugs other players are good or even rotation level but westbrook is one of the worst players in the league and that is compounded by him being allowed to do all kinds of dumb shit because of his background
>>
The bad guys are the Celtics but who are the good guys this year?
>>
>>145274382
Exactly, OKC is the deepest team in the west and SGA is an MVP contender. Wemby has a mummified Chris Paul and your local park rangers suiting up with him
>>
>>145274370
well you only asked me about westbrook, i have no idea wtf the nuggets are doing other than mismanaging the supporting cast of one of the best nba players of all time (i am referring to jokic). it kind of feels like after they won a championship they (the organisation and coach) got too arrogant and thought they could just outsmart everyone else when it was just jokic doing all the heavy lifting (and a streaky murray helping out)

in a way it's kind of sad that jokic seems happy enough just to do his job and hoop in denver instead of looking for a way out to maximize his championship odds, but he just doesn't seem like the kind of guy that would down tools or betray his current organisation to take his talents somewhere else like you see with other superstars, he clearly wants to win but min-maxing his odds of a championship doesn't seem like something he is about which i kind of admire but also as a purist it makes me sad

Calvin Booth is absolutely atrocious GM. He was very vocal about picking Holmes with our 27th or whatever pick, which ended up forcing us to trade up with Sons because they basically blackmailed us for that guy, just because Booth wanted it.
He keeps giving guaranteed contracts to absolute dog water players, and of course on top of that we are overpaying for our starters. We are getting to the point where team now is worse than it was when we had two max players injured for entire year

Name a weaker era of NBA basketball. Everyone is old, injured, going to be injured and older, capped out and draft pick-less. The teams that aren’t old, injured, going to be injured and older, capped out and draft pick-less, are all underwhelming and overrated (Mavs, Wolves, Knicks, etc.) GOATic has a roster that would be picking top-3 for the foreseeable future without him. And it doesn’t matter anyway because they’re constantly injured. Are you guys going to look back on the Celtics’ superstars who just won a championship as all-time greats? The Knicks made a conference finals by just playing hard. The Heat’s whole shtick is that Heat Culture ™ is just playing hard and they made two Finals. The Suns made a Finals. The Lillard-Giannis duo should be, on paper, based on those player archetypes, should be the best PG-PF duo ever and they suck. The potential budding dynasties (Thunder, Magic) aren’t there yet. Seriously, name a worse era of the NBA.

Is there a player that has ever suffered more unjust disrespect of his character than Kyrie? The man is the vocal leader on the Mavs, the tutor for young players because Luka isn’t interested in the gig, fully aware of his position as the #2 to Luka and plays incredibly unselfishly in a support role, and the architect in selling Klay on joining the team. Literally the opposite of locker room cancer. The Nets deserve to meander in mediocrity for their undue slander of this man.

Joe Tsai, Steve Balmer, Mark Cuban, these tech billionaires always have the ego of a sun when they initially buy a team like they’re just gonna school everybody else with big flashy moves only to get bitchslapped by reality. Joe Tsai couldn’t cope with the fact that his team’s ineptitude was his fault, and lashed out his frustrations on Kyrie.

It's even worse than that. Tsai could have made an exemption for players to play even home games. The Lakers quietly had something like that for their arena. All Tsai had to do was stand up for his players a little bit and he could have made it happen and had Kyrie play full time.

They can tank for multiple years and collect assets now though. Maybe in a decade they will have three all-stars again.

>>145276845
Joe Tsai no longer cared about actually trying to build a competitive team at the point, he was purely fueled by spite. The real cancer on that team was Harden. Habitual playoff choker and mercenary that jumps from team to team at the first sign of trouble.

Not even quickley himself believes that. And the reason we got RJ and IQ is called Ogagua. Precious was just a throw in.
