2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

They have so many holes Wembenyammabananaramma or Scott would be a godsend.

This could turnout to be Zion vs Ja 2.0.

No question about which guy goes 1st.

Hopefully, Vic can stay healthy.

Because, NOLA probably isn’t ready to admit it…

But, if Zion keeps breaking shit because his frame can’t support that girth?

Might be as bad as drafting Oden over Durant.

I’m not sure how it will happen but Thunder have dibs on both those guys.

Zions shown a hell of a lot more than Oden ever did....but hey props for using a comparison as debate

 

[DJ Fieri]

Yeah if AD or Bron get hurt- the Lakers are done. If the Lakers stay healthy they seem to be a play-in team. They would have to play out of their mind to get a 5 or 6 seed imo but it's possible.

3rd easiest schedule and they are already looking like they have played together all season.

I’m talking about over the course of their careers, Himbo.

If he continues to DNP-Fat and Ja continues to keep his team near the top of the conference, win a chip or two?

Yeah.

Without James....different team with him.

It's sweet that you think lebron is going to play in every game going forward.. .

Man, you would have a cache of string bean shooting unicorns.

Dunno about Scoot though.

Don’t want to add someone who would take the ball out of SHAI or Giddey’s hands.

We could trade him for Mobley and call it good

How do you know after 1 game?

For the record, I believe you have improved substantially.

I also believe it’s too late in the Season to get out of the play in.

At least you didn’t say Porzingis….lol

 

[DJ Fieri]

Well yeah, I might be unrealistic as hell but I ain’t stupid!

 

[The Q]

Lmfao

No.

Fucking.

Way.

….Will the Lakers pass the Clippers, Suns…probably not even Dallas.

Lmfao…you are letting one game, as outstanding as it was, fool the fuck out of you.

Accepted.

Idk know how to bet and I still want in on this action

He's played damn good all season. Funny you think his skills will magically vanish all of the sudden...wiggy.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

It really is just simple math at this point of the season.

If the Lakers go 15-8 over their last 23 games they finish with a record or 42-40. Or basically just behind the pace that Dallas is on right now currently. So a .650 winning percentage (or in other words being one of the better teams in the league) probably doesnt even get them the #6 seed.

You would need to project the Lakers winning at elite level clip of 17-6 (a .740 winning percentage) to get them to 44-38 which is likely what it will take to get up to the 5 or 6 seed.

That is crazy to think that this Lakers team could do it. But if they have a chance, the next 7 games will tell us what we need to know. Warriors twice, Griz twice, Timberwolves, OKC and Mav's once. And the OKC game they likely will be sitting people as it is a road/road back to back. Will need 5-2 to keep pace.

This is dope.

Thank you kindly.
