Believe @TurnUpTheHeat said it was 55 on DK

Not sure if DK scoring same.

I think 4 Heat players were in winning lineup

Fair point, but cannot ignore the team looks far better this year than it did last year. Day brought in new coaches to completely revamp the defense and SO FAR they have not allowed bad teams to hang or even beat them as happened often last year.

OSU has looked as good as anyone from the games Ive seen.

I had Bam and Herro in my lineup.
Bam was 6th best overall. Butler was the top guy other than Kawhi.
Didn't have Butler or Nunn though.

Thought I saw in FD, but should be close to same in DK.

I'd say they have looked better than anyone....but still a lot of games left.

Guessing beat PSU and win BIG they are in CFP. don't and they aren't.

I know it is early so this is a pretty small sample size but BAM #'s are even better than I thought. Believe I said 13,9, & 3. Right now, he is at 15,10,5, & 2 blocks.

I'm sure it may drop but still impressive

And what to make of 20, 12, 2 and 2 for TT?

All seriousness, they both look better than I expected.

 

[dtgold88]

Atlanta going to be a playoffs team so I wouldn't call them lowly. Doesn't change the fact that they have looked good. I don't think they're going to forget how to play basketball when they play the better teams. The only guaranteed lottery team of the 4 teams they played is Memphis. With the Warriors situation, it isn't a lock that the Wolves don't make the playoffs.

somewhat agree....but Atlanta without Young is a lottery team. Maybe bottom 5.

Agree with you winning 2 from among Houston, Denver and LA would be impressive.

NEXT MAN UP

Miami went into Milwaukee and won without their best player. Could have easily quit down 21

Also fair, but the fact (or at least strong opinion) is 3 of the 4 teams they played as they are would be sure lottery teams.

Atlanta is a sure lottery team? SINCE WHEN

Only sure lottery team is Memphis

 

[dtgold88]

I get what you guys are saying but i just like what im seeing from Miami. Love our two rookies and love our bench. Our defense is going to be good as it normally is. Just a better group than the last 3 seasons. Last year group would have been 2-3 right now. Possibly 1-4

I'd be excited by what you've seen so far with slightly tempered enthusiasm...but, yeah, can only play the teams on the sched.

with no Young? Yes...sure lottery team.

 

[bksballer89]

injuries happens.

The NBA season is a marathon. You're going to play a lot of teams that aren't at full strength.

 

[dtgold88]

the recruiting class is still top notch as well.

Yep...current freshman as well as 2020 and early jump on 2021

Great.....but I said "as they are" they have played 3 sure lottery teams. Not a fact, but doubt anyone would disagree.

Also said they had a huge win against the Bucks (without JB).

probably similar score for JB in DK.

differences I remember are 1.25 points per rebound instead of 1.2. Think an extra point for a 3 in DK (none in FD). FD might be same, but blocks and steals are 2 points in DK. Assists 1.5 per.

 

[dtgold88]

Gilbert finally extended a GM..... @WiggyRuss @Shanemansj13

Cavs Extend Koby Altman

I actually believe that the Hawks are capable of grabbing the 7th or 8th seed in the east. course that's predicated on the health of the team and Trae in particular...

I think 5-6 even possible WITH Young.

Shit, it's been a long summer and now basketball is back.

Your team was not supposed to be a player in free agency. But, you got one of the top prizes.

Shit could be going sideways right now with the Johnson and Waiters fuckery.

Yet, you are exceeding expectations with two improbable rookies.

Yes, it's early. But, enjoy this Shit. Things can change on a dime in this league.

See Curry and Dub Nation.

@Shopson isn't wrong in what he stated. But, neither are you for being excited.

If I remember they seemed like they were fried and the meat tasted more like a spaghetti sauce than a taco suace...but as I said, been a while (just remember them being so good)

do you have an El Pollo Asada or El Pollo Loco near you? Used to love their chicken burritos.

Yep. There might be a little more spice to them now. But they are still fried.

There's an El Pollo Loco, but I don't go there much because there's a Mom and Pop place near me that makes essentially the same stuff, only better.
