It is the years 2018-19 in the National Basketball Association (NBA) - The Regular Season

dubs replacing kd w boogie next year wld be interesting

"hes already on board with it being year one of a two year plan"

is he tho?

thats my impression

yeah idk about that, i think he still thinks he's the league's best player and that he can win a ship

lakers are banking on signing another star next year management has said as much im sure theyve discussed it with bron/theres no way he thinks hes coming out of the west with this roster

trying a new predix format this year

east overperform: DET
east underperform: PHI

west overperform: LAC
west underperform: HOU

east overperform: DET
east underperform: PHI

west overperform: LAC
west underperform: HOU

well they were supposed to land that big 2nd star this year but had to pivot and shift focus to next year once pg and kawhi both decided they didnt want to play with lebron.

nice. clips will be fine if they stay healthy but when you have a full roster of always-injureds you cant really bet on them.

true and im not saying its a good plan but j feel like bron has some zen about this season xp

this is the worst thread for bookmarks to break on for me

if boogie is good i don't think the warriors have a mechanism to resign him

oh right cause they just signed him for a year

lowe predix

i think the LeBron Lakers will have one game (maybe even the first meeting) where they utterly decimate the Warriors bc LBJ will make it personal and GSW will underestimate them, but then the other meetings will be lopsided destructions in favor of GSW.

LeBron Lakers looked pretty damn good in the first pre-season game.

(vs. Dubs)

What I would like to see is Durant AND Cousins go to the Knicks.

East overperform: Cavs
East underperform: Detroit

West overperform: Clippers
West underperform: Pelicans

Actually west underperform is lakers because god damn some people have them as the third seed

expectations are all over the map for the lakers. impossible to pin down, too many unknown variables

i have the lakers around 46 wins prob v middle of the pack, ~6th seed

east overperform: bucks
east underperform: ??? this conference is trash outside the top 3

west overperform: spurs
west underperform: blazers

mvp: giannis
dpoy: brow
rook: luka
6th man / mip: literally no one cares and i do not remember who won these last year maybe jamal crawford won both who knows there is no way of knowing

wcf: dubs / jazz
ecf: celtics / rappers
champs: snooze its the dubs wow

west underperform: blazers

Unless Nurkic and some of the untested bench players take big steps ahead, the Blazers will be very lucky to win 45 and get the eighth playoff spot this season. Underperforming, to my mind, would be ending the season under .500. They're already talking up Meyers Leonard's preseason play, which seems like a bad sign to me.

What I would like to see is Durant AND Cousins go to the Knicks.

absolutely this needs to happen

kd and boogie become best friends this year and flee town together

its beautiful

yeah aimless i have portland just a hair under .500 and around 10th in the west which seems like an underperformance to me. wild cards would be a major trade of say lillard for prospects and the blazers tanking it out or firing stotts. both seemed more likely before allen died; presumably the FO will prioritize stability in his wake.

feel like dame is nearing goodness levels where it wld be hard for a team hes on to be too bad

hes kinda a mini steph id but him in the same neighborhood as kyrie

ive got kyrie ahead of dame easily cos dame is really very bad in the playoffs which no one really talks about. playoff career 40% shooting percentage.

huh did not realize that tbh

yeah all the heat gets put on the raptors guards choking cos well they had no competition out there but dame does it and no one really blinks cos the west is a blood bath anyway and they arent really expected to win. but it's been ugly for quite a few years now with him.

East overperform: Cavaliers
East underperform: Pistons

West overperform: Timberwolves
West underperform: Thunder

MVP: James Harden
DPOY: Giannis Antetokounmpo
Rookie: Jaren Jackson Jr.
Sixth Man: Will Barton
Most Improved: Josh Richardson
WCF: Warriors / Rockets
ECF: Celtics / Raptors
Champs: Celtics

ime dame relies way too much on the chip on his shoulder and his game kinda falls apart under scrutiny & focus which is why he sux in the 'offs

when he's on it's insanely electric must-watch ball tho

oh and yo nurk shoots threes now which ultimately can't really be a good thing unless he's doing the trailing three boogie thing. if he starts spotting up off pick and pop type situations four times a game i'm gonna be rmde

ROY: Trae Young
MVP: Taurean Prince
MIP: John Collins
6th man: Deandre Bembry
COY: Budenholzer

mvp antetokounmpo
dpoy gobert
roy ayton
coy snider
6th man tyreke evans
mip rivers

ecf bos
champs gsw

lol heez three of those are actually possible

I get so amped when the hawks start from scratch again

mvp GIANNIS
dpoy GIANNIS
roy LUKA
coy BUDENHOLZER
6th TERRY ROZIER
mip BRYN FORBES

im excited for bud coaching the bucks.

i tuned in to some tnt pre-game stuff and here's an update they're still unfathomably awful

hey friends
