i have something to say about the offseason THE 2016 NBA OFFSEASON

There would have been at least 4 teams in the mix. Spurs/Thunder/Cavs/Warriors

tru too

i don't see how the spurs do or would have had a better chance than they had last season

but the cavs lost moz.gov and delly, worth $100 million between them, so they're relegated next season

i'd go under on 70 too. they will need time to mesh.

They don't need to be better to have a good chance.

have a feeling adding a perennial mvp candidate that does everything perfectly to a team that already plays on a string wont be that hard

this is not a miami or boston (who won the title in their first year and started out scorching btw) all new team type scenario

I think we all agree that dubs plus kd will be a very strong team and the odds on favorite to win it all, regardless of whether they beat 73 wins next season. They'll win enough to be the #1 seed with home court all through and that's all that matters. against all expectation, the dubs struggled in the offs this year and lost, so not every crystal ball tells the truth, ok?

o/u 68.5 rn

Malone-Payton lakers were crushing it before malone's extremely unlucky and flukey injury

Free agent Pau Gasol is finalzing a deal with the San Antonio Spurs, league sources tell @TheVertical.

twitter shd have a special praying for curry injury emoji that attaches itself to every free agent announcement

Final Zing

LMA last year and Pau now keeps the Spurs very relevant, imo. The old big three can take another step back from carrying that load.

lol bulls

jazz shld have better odds than some of those other wc teams

jazz too slow, not enough playmaking or shooting, great defensive team tho def

actually i didnt examine the whole list its def fd up whare the pelicans doing in there

i almost put money on the thunder the other day cuz i thought kd was going back there and the odds were attractive. i guess i might throw something on the clippers but man it is very very hard to imagine we don't get round dubs-cavs round three.

odds don't matter after the top 3-4 teams lol

ugh bulls

we had a decent run for awhile there i guess

that harden trade looks better every day

gotta make sure you can keep ibaka

Presti went from GOAT to goat overnight

ok city more like not actually that great tbh city

yeah that's why i never actually place a bet - odds for top 3 teams make it just about pointless, teams not in top 3 you know you are almost definitely throwing your money away. i could talk myself into thinking 'well if not the dubs or cavs then who' and deciding the clippers (or that the clips are maybe as likely as the spurs w/ better odds). i remember almost putting money on the thunder at 20-1 like shortly before the playoffs and then just kicking myself for not doing it when they were up 3-1 but hey guess at close as they came i would've lost that money anyway. basically this is why i never gamble on bball. when i can get the steelers at 12-1 and the cards at 15-1 (and the falcons at 65-1 - how dare they) to win the superbowl.

Presti went from GOAT to goat overnight

Remember Kevin Pritchard

Terrible city once russ leaves for SA next season

yeah a team coming out of nowhere to win a title is just too rare in the NBA

warriors were at 20-1 two years ago

Psyched abt pau but we're probably going to lose boris :(

Going from a stout French dude to a slender Spanish dude is...idek

watch Boris take the vet min to play for GSW

were the mavs considered a top team at the start of the year they won i forget

lol makes a lot of sense actually but iirc they need to trade him

russ to heat, knicks, or lakers next year i bet

Warriors should try to get miles plumlee

celtics shd trade for russ today

Oh wait plumlee has a QO somehow sry

russ to cavs

an extremely beautiful dream tbh

Every gm should be trying to steal Russ right now, give up a few decent assets to lock him in before the feeding frenzy next year

celts really should try to steal russ while presti is in shock

I'm bummed kd didn't show enough Celtic pride but I'm excited about this gsw super death machine, four top-15 guys and a bunch of garbage/rooks, gonna be fun

its not going to be fun!

it may be darkly fascinating tho
