wdym? I get the season isnt over yet . But, at minimum, 10 teams arent even remotely competitive and its not even ASB yet. Injuries arent an excuse either. Most NBA Teams are just bad at roster construction.

4 great teams

12 good teams

16 treadmill teams

Everybody cant go 50-32...

There’s only 3 teams that are truly tanking right now and that’s the Nets, Wizards and Jazz

Pacers have been destroyed by injuries, and the Kings & Pelicans just suck authentically

Ppl starting to see what I say about Amen yeah he has numbers but he’s about a max player currently. If . He can be ignored on offfense. I don’t care what any basketball fan or Rockets fan says, dude is not a max player. He can’t run an offense, he can’t stop the offense from bleeding, and he lacks a bag. San Antonio did exactly what Denver did to Houston when they crushed them. They threw Jokic on him and clamped Houston. The reason we beat Denver and San Antonio was because Reed showed up and put on for the Rockets. When the opps have to actually pay attention to another scorer outside of Kd and sengun, Houston is at its best. Unfortunately Reed is consistently at that level of being that threat all game. I won’t say never because he’s still young but I don’t think Amen will ever have that respectable perimter shot that all these analysts keep saying will make him unstoppable once he develops it.

Anthony black has developed more than Amen on offense. His jumper ain’t that great either but he has more of a bag than Amen. He can get downhill more easily than Amen because he has a stronger driver/handles.

Ppl bring up the Boston game-winner to defende Amen but if you watch the play he caught Boston inthe middle of a defensive breakdown which cause Jalen Brown to get off balance. If Brown is actually able to square up properly against Amen, that’s a negative possession for Houston because Amen ain’t beating squared up solid defender like Jalen Brown off the dribble in iso for a bucket. Not in a halfcourt offense setting where the defense is set
saw this against gsw last year for sure

GS really pursuing Giannis with Draymond mostly washed and Steph old as shyt :dahell:

AInt no way Giannis got the heart to come out west and started having to play OKC Spurs Rockets 3 and 4 times a year instead of 2 :mjlol:

Giannis doing to Steph what he did to Dame would be :mjlol: though

kon v flagg is dope so far

dallas needs to stop fukking around and build around this kid. shouldn't have even printed off a dallas jersey for davis this year...
And to think once it came down to SA and Dallas for Flagg the spurs actually had more matching numbers than the mavs did so they were more likely to get flagg between the two :mjlol:.

Imagine if the Spurs had went Wemby, Castle, Flagg, back to back to back :mjlol:

Instead they went Wemby, Castle, and Harper
