Blazers/Warriors and Mavs/Heat should both be interesting games otnight. Same with Suns Nuggets and Clippers/Jazz.

good round of games

and lets see if the Wiz can get their first win vs. the Twolves.

Nets/Hawks should be the best game of the night if it is close to the game they played on Wednesday.

I hate watching Kendrick Nunn play basketball

Would be interesting if Josh Jackson turned his career around. And maybe this time Detroit doesn't trade him for a box of pancake mix or just let him go for nothing

The Nets start 2-0 and people are talking about them being the best in the EC....they are getting their asses whipped by the Hawks and dropping to 3-3.

Fucking pistons gonna blow another lead

Who's better in the East? The 3-3 Bucks? Or the 3-3 Celtics? How about the 2-3 Heat?

Jerami Grant's the only legit player to come out of Syracuse since Melo.

Dame outplayed Curry like a boss

Dame outplayed Curry like a boss

does that surprise you at this point?

Doncic is the best PG in the NBA.

Lillard is safely #2 if you ask me.


I would prob. have Kyrie at #3 and Curry at #4 at this point. Trae Young is gaining on those 2 though at #5. As old as CP3 is, for THIS season- I would have him #6 because of his defense and leadership and still putting up numbers and he has the Suns playing their best ball in ages. Jrue Holiday is the best defensive point guard in the league and very good. Id have him #7.

Its all about fit- and i am sure each team would say no---- but a neutral team is given a choice between trading for Young and Curry-

who do they take? lets just say for THIS year. Even that is a tough freaking choice.

The Hawks are good

Trae Young is dropping 30+ a game and looks like a star. He just turned 22. He prob wont break in the top 10 players in the NBA this year but hes top 20 at this point.

John Collins looks like a star as well.

and they have a mix of solid vets and young talent. The East has a lot of depth all of a sudden.

I still think the Nets and Bucks are the teams to beat in the East.

but the Pacers, Celtics, Heat, Hawks, Sixers are all really good---- and all of a sudden the Magic dont look bad. Even the Raptors are nobodies push-over.

Pacers are my dark horse- though Warren getting hurt and being out a while is not a good thing. I just think Sabonis is the real deal and reminds me of Jokic with a little less skill but a little more toughness.

Really very few bad teams in the East--- Bulls and Pistons are atrocious.....Wizards, Hornets, Knicks and Cavs are not good.

With the added talent on Atlanta- Collins probably wont put up 22 a night again--- but people are gonna really start to realize that he is a force.

 

[WiggyRuss]

the Sixers wasted so much draft capital.

They could have had Tatum and blew that--- and then they gave up on Fultz. The rest of the league kind of gave up on Fultz too- and the Magic took a flyer and it looks like that is going to pay off BIG TIME. They stole a talent like that. He still cant shoot a 3 to save his life- but the rest of his game is looking pretty sweet. Fultz is still only 22. He has the ability to be a demon on defense and is lightning quick.

Fun, fun, fun.

Driving to Missoula to drop off the marine daughter at the airport.

Trying to get back by the time the Oregon-Iowa State game kicks off.
