You said it, I bet it. It's gotta happen

Is this a bad time to mention my terrible track record in sports betting lately?

True Hoop has been all over this. Gotta play fewer games or play way more guys more mins over the regular season. I fear for the Wolves and Knicks.

I'd be ok with a 70 game season then maybe doing best of 3 for play in?

A product of the ground that has to be covered defensively imo.

And on that note...

Everything the Nuggets GM has done in recent offseaons- moves I was deeply skeptical of- is coming up aces. Watson, swapping Braun for KCP, even signing Westbrook to coach up the kids and play solid D.

But may all be for naught because Jamal looks fucking washed. He does not have the same lift or lateral movement since missing the final 1/3 of last season.

The dude is 27 and the injuries may have already undone him.

I only see this being exacerbated in the coming years as the new CBA kills the mid priced middle tier veteran with coaches hesitant to give younger players real minutes

Except it's going to force coaches to develop young players to keep their job. See all the noise around Malone over the offseason. And now the kids are playing.

Anyone watch Starting 5 on Netflix? I'm about half way through and it's pretty well done. It's nice that they actually got some of the game's biggest stars. Maybe it's because I'm an introvert but I enjoy the Domantas Sabonis segments the most. Anthony Edwards is irritating as hell.

I watched it all - overall I prefer the two football series they did but it was a good watch. Agreed on Ant, he comes across pretty awful!

Does this mean that GSW is winning the championship?

They’ve started off surprisingly strong.
