2019-20 Season predictions

[msgkings322]

guess we'll miss out on his glowing review of the game...

ah well...

We might hear about how the refs screwed them, or the coach sucks

 

[tlance]

The East is open every year since LeHelpMe and his little boy treehouse Collusion SuperTeam left and packed up and move to the West. Way to address the the fact about the Lakers though. . What is excuse is there for the Lakers NOT to make the finals exactly? Again.. No other team has 2 of the top 5 players in the world along with an all-star. LOL.

Easy.

They have a flawed roster. They are big and slow and they only have 1 perimeter player who is an asset on both ends of the floor.

I also find it quite ironic that you insisted on saying LeBron was overrated when he was dominating the league, but now you still call him a top 5 player when he really isn’t anymore.

Hilarious.

 

[tlance]

Lebron joined a Lakers team who's best players were Brandon Ingram and Kyle Kuzma. AD was still a Pelican when he came to LA

Clearly a super team!

This year’s group isn’t even a super team.

Haters gonna hate though.

 

[tlance]

Just like he went back to Cleveland then magically a bunch of All Stars join up. Collusion Central

A bunch of all stars?

No.

They traded future assets for Kevin Love.

Hardly collusion. It was a shrewd move the Cavs has to make to win a title.

Kyrie was already there, but he had no idea how to win without LeBron.

 

[tlance]

Scary how apparently the best team in NBA history, according to some, just lost at home to a team nobody really gave a chance.

Who the hell is saying that?

That is stupid.

I believe the Clippers are hands dow the favorites to win this season, but not by nearly the same margin that GS was the last 3 years.

Nobody should be projecting all time greatness onto them. No reason to think that.

 

[tlance]

He says that was a mistake, he meant Nets. But that's not much less stupid.

Still won't say if he's playing a character. Sadly I don't think so.

Nah.

Saying the Nets is stupid, but possible.

Saying the Knicks are going to the NBA Finals is like predicting a Super Bowl for the Redskins. That goes far beyond stupid. There are no words to describe that.

 

[tlance]

Giannis with 7 assists and another 7 rebs on only the 1st half of the 2nd Bucks game, is all set to have his 2nd triple double in 2 games...

Bucks with 70 pts scored in only the 1st half against the Heat, look absoutely scary!

So scary they are a late run away from being 0-2.

I was referring to the Bucks and how great @buckalis makes them out to be

 

[lebron23james]

Nets are about to surprise a lot of people this year, i bet you can't even get 40-1 anymore odds on bets

My dark horse for being really good is the Rockets

GS missed the playoffs with Tlance making tons of excuses like Curry hurt a fingernail, or "doesn't have Durant"...I would put money on all of these

I would like to add to my above list for lakers finishing in bottom 8 of the playoffs standings...

you said they'd miss out altogether...

guess we're improving...

I mean from what i have seen they could possibly be an 8 or 7 seed. They def don't have the talent to win the entire thing. Have you watched them play? They don't look very good, but it is still early so they have that. Put it this way i wouldn't put any money on that team going very far, and i would be more likely to bet on them not making it at all. Give me about 20 games and i will tell you exactly what will happen

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

So we went from "The Lakers suck and won't make the playoffs" to "They don't look very good but they'll make the playoffs"

That's one heck of a turnaround for you.

There's a first time for everything I guess.

You should revise this every two weeks, by April you should have it exactly right

I cannot believe with the value of hindsight he has Zion as ROTY.

 

[msgkings322]

Yeah that made me laugh too. He's obviously fading Morant now that he doesn't look great, but Zion Injuryson?

 

[True Lakers Fan]

And yet the Lakers are 5-1 with the best record in the Western Conference

So it's been 13 games so far and they have the best record in the league.

They have the best defense in the league, are top 10 in offense and have the best net rating.

So how much longer do we have to wait?
