2018 OFF-SEASON DISCUSSION THREAD

Yall president is wack as fuck lol

 

[Paulius]

because you only post in hot takes and nothing else

Philly or raptors being better than Boston is not that hot of a take

apparently if we don't have Boston as #1 in the east or best bet to beat gsw we are giving hot takes

Paulius you were saying stuff about Mike the other day

Pretty lame response. Michael really doesn't care about the people. Really doesn't care about his upbringing

He is 100% corporate and sadly that's pretty in line with Trump

I mean look at how he is as an owner. A cookie cutter silent owner who is collecting a paycheck not caring about the fan base

 

[Paulius]

Id maybe pick joel as mvp but what if Philly sits him out a bunch of games to have him fresh for the playoffs

Kawhi is actually interesting. Raptors will probably be fighting for the 1st seed and they always win a shit ton of games in the regular season

But who knows how he’ll look

This years mvp pick is tricky

it all comes back to LeBron

Might just be MVP #5. Kind of looks like it's shaping up that way

 

[Paulius]

MJ is all about himself, which is fine. Some people are like that

Hes done a bunch of charity help but he obviously doesnt wanna do anything more to help the society

Which is fine, to each their own

Espn projected that Lakers will miss the playoffs lol

Its not crazy to think that, the West is real. No nights off

He’ll make the playoffs prolly but im saying 6-8th seed. Maybe 5th but it’ll be tough

 

[Paulius]

Im just rolling with Westbrook prolly

If okc snags the 2nd seed and he has a monster season that i feel like he’ll have

He will be up there

The west has a lot of good teams but it's not like a few years ago

Gsw is by themselves
Houston is below

Everyone else is in the same tier but some could reach Houston. Best bets are Spurs, jazz, thunder

But then teams like Portland, Denver, Minnesota, new orleans? Lakers are right there. I think they're better than all 4

Memphis and Clips might contend for a low seed

Dallas, sac and Phoenix suck

#NotMyGOAT

my goat

Unless this is a MJ post then yeah not my goat

 

[Paulius]

Houston was below gsw last season

This season, they’re in the same tier as okc. Okc will be even better actually

Gsw

Okc houston

Everyone else

I do hate that people sleep on the spurs now. Pop always finds a way

Dejounte another year under his belt, derozan will be nice in that system even though his 3 point shooting is a big question mark

Spurs entire starting 5 barely shoots 3s but Pop will figure something out

 

[Paulius]

You dont even believe that Brons the goat

Everytime we do all time rankings, you have mj and kareem above him haha

 

[Mexi]

And I might be overrating Utah

I know they're good defensively but they're going to need more scoring I'm

Last year's offensive outbursts might've been kind of fluky

I was just gonna say that

Last year was one of those surprise seasons, and this season they might come back to earth

Happens all the time

OKC needs to prove it. I'm not putting them up there yet

But like I said I have them on the short list of teams who could move up.
