NBA Hot Takes Thread for 2020-21

[Professor Emeritus]

Coli tradition every year is to make wild hot takes based on the first few games of the season that invariably turn out wrong. Wanted one thread where we can throw out all the wild hot takes you've already seen.

Denver needs to trade for Harden

Luka is overrated. You gonna put up good numbers when you pounding the rock for 23 seconds every possession

KP is the most important piece the Mavs got.
