Do Not Sell My Personal Information

Ivan Zubac had 17 rbs and 5 blocks last night vs AD, who had 8 boards and 0 blocks. Is AD mailing it in already? Shell of his former self? Bulked up too much (per prior post)?

AD had a bad fall in the second quarter I believe and it really affected how aggressive he was the rest of the game.

His style of play will have him hurt again really soon. His body won't hold up.

Lakers are doomed lol
 
I'm interested to see the TOR vs BKN game tonight. Joe Harris should be back. I want to see how TOR matches up with them.
 
Mavericks don’t have a path to being a real contender, barring something pretty unpredictable, during Luka’s remaining team control. Feels very first Cavs stint LeBron.

Curious what Cuban has up his sleeve.

This is your conclusion from them losing by two on the road in their opening game to a very good team? Seems premature

I think people think NBA games are on NFL type schedule we’re every game counts……lmao
 
You guys are underestimating the players on the Mavs. Dwight Powell is going to flash a 45% 3pt shot and average 20-20 this year while DFS is going to be Scottie Pippen. EZ championship
 
Christian wood had a great first game

If only they hadn’t fucked up and lost Brunson

Eh, Philly isn't a contender.

Blown out by Boston then losing at home to a Bucks team without Middleton.

But again, that's how good the East is. A team with talent like that isn't a threat.

Embiid is out of shape due to an offseason foot injury that prevented him from conditioning. He can’t get up and down the court quickly enough. The injury is over but it will take time for him to get in shape.

Harden is slimmer and knocking down midrange shots.

I wouldn’t count Philly out just yet.
 
BKN just has so many shot makers when it’s late in the game.

KD, Kyrie, Mills, Harris, Morris, Curry. If the game is close they can beat you with 6 different players. Add Ben Simmons as a defender and distributor and that can beat you so many ways. They’re the one team that doesn’t need all of their guys to be on for them to beat you. They can beat you with only 3 of them having a good game.
 
Lauri with 20 and 10 early in the 4th; Colin with 11 . The Jazz only down 1 on the road to the Wolves. They’re using him as a C guarding Gobert

I thought he looked a LOT slower than before. Not sure it made much sense for him to add muscle/weight. Dude's a perimeter player and a jump shooter.

In two games Ingram is averaging 28-8-6 on 52% shooting (higher than that from 3). The Pelicans are 2-0 and Ingram is leading the team in +/- with an average +23 a game. Tell us more about how slow he looks!
