Father time

It’s certainly past time, but I’m not going there yet.

Lakers offensive rating better with Lebron on the bench lately. So many turnovers and lazy and or hero ball bad jumpers.

He is still playing well. Averaging 22ppg, 9apg, and 8rpg while making 50% and 39%.

He is about to be 40 in another month.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Bron was never going to maintain shooting 45-46% from 3.

I may have been fooled into overestimating the Warriors by a soft early schedule. They still look improved from last year but not likely a top 4 team in the West. Kuminga is definitely not making the 4th year jump yet that his comp Jaylen Brown did (to be fair, he is not a starter most games, too much depth)

They blew a big lead against the Spurs and barely dropped the game against OKC without Steph. In other words, they can still be a top 4 team if they can stay healthy. The only game that was a minor concern in this little slump they're in would be the Nets game but the other 2 losses and this likely one tonight wouldn't concern me much because 2 of the 3 they likely win on most nights.

Curry and Kumimga both being 0 for the 1st half wouldn’t give a lot of optimism

OK perhaps but point being they were never the 65 win team they were on pace to be. Peaked winning 2 of 3 on the road from OKC, Cleveland, and Boston. The wins were vs teams missing key players too.

Just evaluating the team as I see it. They look pretty good, better than last year, no reason they aren't top 6 in the West. For a minute there I felt maybe they were top 4 level. Still might be of course, just calling out my current thoughts.

If that was the usual occurrence, definitely not

West is competitive as hell. I think low 50's should get the job done if they want to be top 4. OKC is the only team that seems like they are going to win 55+ out west

The 76ers season started in Detroit tonight

1-0

And we know they aren’t lucky enough for it to pay off on the draft. I think they need to go back to the Bullets.

Was a matter of time

It's tough in the NBA when you weigh 127 pounds.
