I don’t understand why Sabonis and Turner wouldn’t be a good fit
― Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 20 October 2019 00:12 (four years ago) link
Seems like people think Sabonis is a pure center but he’s got the wingspan of a shooting guard and doesn’t really offer anything defensively. To me that’s a power forward!
― Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 20 October 2019 00:13 (four years ago) link
oh they definitely can play together, especially against bigger lineups.
― micah, Sunday, 20 October 2019 00:17 (four years ago) link
steph gonna do some things for sure but defenses are gonna be locked in on him, dlo gonna have to be consistent

Curry should take 12 3s per game. Let’s see what happens

he may have to take 15 for this team to stay afloat

If you shoot 37% on 35 foot pullups and no one guards that and your team is bad...

I am going to be a single-issue poster this season and that issue will be zion
My prediction is that the Jazz will badly underperform expectations

My one prediction that I've been irritating my friends with irl is Sacto finishing with a better record than the GSW

Feel like Vlade deserves a lot of credit for what happened with Hield’s contract here.

a lot the over under numbers look too high to me but i guess someone has to win the games
― ciderpress, Monday, 21 October 2019 18:40 (four years ago) link
I predict that the previously unstoppable GSW dynasty will not prevail this season, nor will there be a new Raptors dynasty to replace it. Other than that I am bad at predicting NBA seasons in advance and will refrain from it itt.
