Western conference:
The towns trade is surprising, it's hard to assess how good or bad minnesota is right now. Randle is good and looks like a better fit for gobert but can he perform in the playoffs? We'll see
Nuggets losing kcp could hurt them, westbrook though can fill the void if he makes himself more serviceable and be a role guy. But as long as the Joker is in his mvp form they could still be the favorites
Clippers and Lakers not looking good but as long as they have their stars you cant count them out
Suns will always be a threat. They still have the 3 headed monster
Dallas if they stay healthy are a monster offensively. I still think they need an upgrade on their bigs (except Lively)
Underrating GS could be dangerous. The team looks deep, just lacking star power
The Thunder & Pelicans looks better and they had their experience.
Big question on Memphis' health. If they are healthy they are a sleeper.
Spurs need more to compete with these teams but Wemby's growth will improve with CP3 on his side
Kings will have their redemption this year and could be a sleeper to represent the west in the finals
Western Prediction (for me)
1) Thunder
2) Kings
3) Nuggets
4) Mavericks
5) Pelicans
6) Suns
7) Timberwolves
8) Clippers
9) Lakers
10) Warriors

9 clippers
10 lakers.

I'd have the Grizz way up there.

Interesting eastern conference
Rosters:
Phi vs Ny
Pg - Maxey vs Brunson
Sg - Oubre vs Hart
Sf - PG vs Bridges
Pf - Martin vs Anunoby
Ce - Embiid vs Towns
Looks identical, who gets the edge?
Miami is always being slept on, their acquisitions are quiet but they are known for having unknown talents
Rozier
Herro
Butler
Adebayo
Ware
- i believe they are the team who can stop the bucks plus they have a good depth. They just need to stay healthy
Bucks is still the team that i think who can match up well with the celtics so it's really a matter of match ups in the playoffs
Lillard
Trent Jr
Middleton
Giannis
Lopez
White and Holiday are defensive monsters who can stop Dame but can Tatum & Porzingis stop Giannis? Maybe yes, Celtics are still the favorite in the east
What about the Pacers? They are rising, haliburton's health could be a big factor.
I still question the Cavaliers pieces, they are great per position but it seems like there's something off. Hopefully they can elevate their chances against these eastern giants
The Orlando Magic can surprise everyone this season more than what they did last season. I believe the KCP signing is one of the best lowkey move this offseason
Eastern prediction (for me only, make yours)
1) Boston
2) Milwaukee
3) Orlando
4) New York
5) Miami
6) Philadelphia
7) Indiana
8) Cleveland
It doesnt matter who make the 9th and 10th spot

Honest opinion who will be willing to pay Brandon Ingram?

I think no one.
23 Sep 2024 16:00:55
I was playing the NBA 2K25..
And I think they should change the Alltime Pelicans roster and who should be in the 12 men rotation??
Davis/ Cousins
West/ *Magloire
Zion/ Mashburn
Davis/ Ingram
Paul/ Holiday

I’d add Peja. And either PJ Brown or Tyson Chandler.

Team USA- Curry, Tatum, Durant, LeBron and Davis
VS
Team Intl- Luka, SGA, Giannis, Jokic and Embiid
Who wins??
Agree2

28 Aug 2024 17:25:22
If Lebron Curry & Durant are 30 y/ o they will win. I dont think they can beat this all prime international team now.
23 Aug 2024 02:00:27
Steph Curry says "trade me", what team can give both the best package to GS and best chance to give another ring to Steph?
Agree0

27 Aug 2024 03:13:23
Call me crazy, but Houston could provide both and be scary good. Some combination of Sheppard, Thompson, Whitmore, Eason, Green. Plus they have picks.
Steph, FVV/ Brooks, whoever is left of the young guys, Smith, Sengun could be a dangerous starting lineup.
29 Aug 2024 02:21:21
What about the Pelicans?
Send McCollum to a 3rd team, added package of Trey Murphy or Herb Jones, Jordan Hawkins & plethora of picks
Pg Murray/ Alvarado
Sg Curry
Sf Ingram/ Jones or Murphy
Pf Williamson
Ce Theis
That's a championship team if they can somehow find a better center.
18 Aug 2024 22:15:07
I think this becomes eventual rotation. With Oubre in the starting lineup they lack rebounding badly. 55 wins maybe?
Maxey / Lowry
Martin / McCain / Gordon
PG/ Oubre
Yabusele / RC4
Embiid / Drummond

That's a solid rotation. I think they're in strong contention for at least top 3.
14 Aug 2024 09:31:30
Who wins this tourney? All in their peak (assume others reach their peak)
Team 1:
Stockton
Jordan
Pippen
Malone
Olajuwon
6th man: D Robinson
Team 2:
Iverson
Bryant
McGrady
Duncan
S. Oneal
6th man: S Nash
Team 3:
Curry
Wade
James
Durant
Davis
6th man: Carmelo
Team 4:
Doncic
SGA

6th man: Edwards

Team 1.
14 Aug 2024 23:00:24
Whoever has Jordan.
16 Aug 2024 15:06:17
Team one.
04 Aug 2024 18:15:00
It is a real discussion:
Portland Prosper, Marshall, Kleber, Powell, Exum, 2x1st (top 8 protected)
Dallas Grant, TE(Thybulle, Reath, Banton), 2x2nd
Lively - Gafford
Washington - Grant
Thompson - Tybulle
Luca - Grimes/Hardy
Kyrie - Dinwiddie

My preferred starting 5 for team USA:
Curry-Booker-Durant-LeBron-Embiid
Based on Kerr's 2017 Warriors..
Booker = Thompson shooting
LeBron = 10x better version of Green
Reason why Embiid starts because Davis And Adebayo played better together on the court (PF&C) and more minutes for these two than Joel..
2nd unit
Holiday-Edwards-Tatum-Davis-Adebayo
Edwards = like DWade in 2008 USA team (more minutes than Book)
Tatum = like Iguodala from 2017 Warriors
Holiday = defense and IQ are better than Haliburton

Opening night would be
Miami at Boston (ring ceremony)
Dallas at Golden State
2nd night big time match ups
Sixers at New York
Wolves at Denver
Phoenix at Sacramento
3rd day bigtime matchups
Milwaukee at Indiana
Cleveland at Boston
New Orleans at LA Clippers
San Antonio at Oklahoma City
LA Lakers at Dallas
