Im not.

Booker is a bitch, Beal is fragile and needs the ball in his hands a bunch.

Why can’t one of the bad teams draft Bronny with a pick before the lakers have their first one, get lbj to sign with them for a season or two? If he wants to play with him (them) that bad then he will change teams. What are the rules? Spurs should do it! :lol:

Celtics could do it but Lebron's playing time would be behind PP, Hauser, Big Al, Mykhailiuk and Queta :wink:

Barring a drastic change the West should have the Clippers versus the Mavericks in the first round..

That's a lot of fireworks for just the first playoff series..

Can you imagine one of those teams with all of that talent going home early.

Sounds like Giannis is done for the regular season. Real dicey as far as his injury recurring in the first round. Tough break.

Celtics getting closer to a rematch with the Sixers or a rematch with the Heat by the day.

Sixers will beat the Heat in the play-in.

That means Sixers vs. Bucks in rnd 1.

Heat will face Hawks or Bulls for 8th spot.

Celtics vs Heat
6ers vs Bucks


That’s wild for Round 1. You would think it’s the conference semi finals.

This play is exactly why the Bulls won't be in the playoffs this year.

Eh, I blame the other guy personally. I can see why Drummond would think it was for him. Craig should've gotten out of the way and let the trailing big guy do his thing

Didn't Durant have a similar injury to Giannis, before he tore his achilles? I feel like Durant initially had a calf sprain, the MRI said no achilles damage, then he returned from that and shortly after he tore his achilles.

Hot take but I think Miami lose both play-in games.
I’m tipping we play Atlanta Round 1.

You could be right.

If that were to happen, Hawks will be tougher to beat than the Heat.
