Do you think yall beat this Butler-less version of Philly in the playoffs?

Not that I felt his step-back 23 foot fadeaway 3s were the most prudent game winning shot attempts (especially for tie games), but probably better than Ben or Tobias with the ball, or nah?

If Philly don't smother yall or Boston in the first 3 quarters, I wonder if things don't get spooky for them in the 4th.
Imo the Raps, Sixers, Celts, and Heat are all capable of beating each other in a given series. I guess the Heat have the most to prove since they don't have the pedigree of those other three teams but I think they're right up there.

I'm leaning this way as well.

Whatever internal feud happened that got Jimmy the F up outta there, it'll be interesting what the fall-out is if a team like Boston bounces them out in the 2nd round similar to the other year

I think the top to bottom roster talent the raps seem to possess would make them the best in that quartet, but its tough. I think the Sixers should be the best but they're also the ones that are the most flappable. like if the heat, between JJ and Jimmy, could figure out a way to apply the "Kawhi effect" to Ben...without Jimmy there as ball handler, their offense is basically fukked now.

Handy needs to stop wasting time with Kuz and get back with Bron, tbh.
Los Angeles needs to stop wasting time with forcing the Kuz as a legit GOOD 3rd option. The flashes are there but they're rushing his journey way too much. He just doesnt have that type of trajectory to become an insta star/really good player this early

Barring injuries, I think the Lakers winning the title. Even over my Bucks :mjcry: LeBron's reminding me of that 95-96 season Jordan when people were saying that Jordan was washed and would never reach his old heights. Really feel bad for the Western Conference towards playoff time because I think the Lakers are just scratching the surface right now. Clips ain't beating a healthy Laker squad in the postseason.

That's crazy....The marketing and promotion this guy gets. Imagine posting Ish Smith highlights when he scores 20

He's been a bust man and his brother may go #1 due to hype alone

I didn’t think the Jazz would be this bad but I never got the hype of people thinking they were contenders

teams with all time great top of the league players win titles

tell me where Conley Mitchell or Gobert fit into that list :gucci:
