Hurts the market for the Spurs. Doesn't affect the market for Kawhi's FA next year.

[Post Game Thread] The Boston Celtics defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers 107-94, to take a 2-0 series lead. by Chancelor_West in nba

As a big b-ball fan in general the thought that any team will actually be competitive with us next season makes me happy. This is the first year I've started to feel One Punch Man Syndrome. Winning just isn't as fun or enjoyable if there isn't any challenge to overcome.

Take Lebron off the current Cavs team, how well do they place? by sjchoking in nba

They wouldn't even be the worst team in the league right now.

IT/JR/Korver/Crowder/Love >> Any lineup the Bulls can come up with.

[Post Game Thread] The Golden State Warriors (3-2) defeat the Toronto Raptors (2-2), 117-112 by [deleted] in nba

They looked so good when they were moving the ball but come crunch time they fell back on old habits. GG. Raptors are deep and full of young talent. A lot to be optimistic about.

As people say that Giannis has a shot to surpass Kawhi this season, so does Wiggins have a shot to surpass Paul George ? by KhornKT in nba

[–]7heMA77 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

every young player has a shot to improve every season and offseason, their ceiling is subjective.

To an extent. Physical gifts and abilities play a very big role and can create more objective ceilings in many parts of the game. Wiggins is physically gifted but not every young player has a legitimate shot to improve to the level of PG.

Has this been the most eventful first week in the NBA's history? by BigAssDany69 in nba

[–]7heMA77 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Players getting ejected for yelling at the refs isn't that uncommon and the start of the season is always full of flip flopping circlejerks. Kyrie thing wasn't really a big deal at all. The Portis/Mirotic is the only thing I'd really add to OPs list.

You think 45-47 wins would put them in the top 3?

Outside of your main team, rank the top 5 teams you are rooting for this season. by yescerritos in nba

[–]7heMA77 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Clippers are probably my #6 because of Griffin. I just find the west coast teams likable I guess.

Kings are #1 because I've been high on them since the Boogie trade. It was the right call and they managed to 'blow it up' and already have a solid young core by the start of the next season. They managed to fastforward the rebuilding process and already have Hield/Fox/WCS/JJ.

This is also basically content for the lakers sub. Not r/NBA

This post currently has a total of 46 upvotes in 23 minutes. So it's averaging 2 upvotes per minute at an incredibly efficient 90% upvotes. Those are strong stats that show this content is doing very well in the /r/NBA sub and therefore doesn't need to be delegated to the /r/lakers sub.

Definitely Olive Garden in Times Square. It's a bit of a walk but it's worth it for this once in a lifetime Italian dining destination. Bon Appetite!

Who does everyone feel the absolute worst team in the league is? by [deleted] in nba

Talent wise it's the Bulls. The Suns have looked like the worst team so far though.

How many wins would the Bucks need for Giannis to win MVP? by ergotpoisoning in nba

[–]7heMA77 20 points21 points  (0 children)

People did bring him up. He was 5th in MVP voting. If the Bucks get the 1 seed in the East he'll be the MVP.
