Trench Mob 1,660 Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) This diversity is refreshing. Elite teams: Bucks Clippers Lakers Good teams: Raptors Celtics Heat Rockets Nuggets Jazz Pacers Thunder Sixers Mavericks That clutter of good teams can beat one another any night. Plus with this neutral floor setting, it's a who's who in the playoffs. I'm liking this. Needed a break from the super team domination.

Well Luka was wearing ATL hat and they still passed...granted it was for Trae and 1st round pick. But just saying, Bagley 3 was beastly in college and got a lot of exposure and hype. He was headlining national games. While, I honestly think 99% of the people probably didn’t see Luka play a minute of basketball prior to his NBA stint. Of course if we are talking hindsight vision, Luka would be running up and down the court with Booker. Because there is no teams in the league that would passed up Luka at 1.

"Marvin is for us a better fit, a better player, and a great talent, so he's the choice for us." - Divac Also apparently Divac had bad blood with Luka's father which went into drafting Bagley over him. No matter how good Bagley was in college Divac messed up, he put ahead personal factors into making an organization's draft pick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gile Pile 1,170 Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 looks like players that were injured earlier in the season (Isaac, Simmons) are very vulnerable. Probably came back too early. On the side note, watching OKC - LAL now and Green is terrible. In the last 3 games he made 2 3PM on 17 attempts . 11% 3PM% for someone who is supposed to be `3 and D` player Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He was 2nd in 3 point% in the league last season for the Raptors and yeah he has always been a streaky shooter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I wanted Raptors to win it all , so I started "hating" Green last year in the playoffs when he was basically unplayable in playoffs and VanVleet haven't had his child yet Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But it does look like he lost a step on the defensive end this season compared to last season, Lakers miss Bradley in that end. It's also gonna be interesting how the Raptors look next season, not sure if they can keep Ibaka, Gasol, and FVV unless they take a paycut. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DezedandConfused 2,560 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Grizz secure a spot in the play-in game, Spurs miss the playoffs for the first time in 22 years, Suns finish the bubble going 8-0 and need the Blazers to lose against the Nets to get into the playoffs. Blazers v. Suns would've been the better play-in matchup :( Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gile Pile 1,170 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I have no idea why Nets defended Lillard the why they did. I guess it worked, only 42 tonight. Tonight Lillard proved his greatness. It will be fun watching Lakers - Blazers And LeVert thinks he is MJ ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
