Nah, at least he's not a flat earther like kyrie

True, but he is a whole bitch.

Cole Anthony showed Lamelo how to play basketball tonight

All I saw was a highlight where lamelo smothered him at the rim and then dropped a sick cross court bounce pass dime.

Edit: yikes 1-10

Rudy Gobert goes from most hated man in the association to the highest paid center in association history. What a year.

It's going to be a long year for the Celtics. Until the playoffs then it will be short.

Really curious to watch the Nets this year. On paper their roster is one of the best in the league. I could easily see a first or second round exit though, similar to the Clippers last year.

I want Durant and Kyrie injured and out for the year.

I am not, but I don't want guys to get injured.

You might have gathered by now that verb is a total psycho.

Win totals odds way down due to all the uncertainty this season. Even considering a 72 game schedule, Bucks 49.5 and Lakers 46.5 seem low.

I think they are factoring in that guys are just going to sit constantly. Especially aging stars like Lebron who had a deep bubble run.

absolutely. guys out for covid too, since no bubble.

then there's weird stuff like this they're factoring:

In a normal season, teams would play around 63 percent of their games against teams in their own conference. This season, that falls to around 58 percent. That should help teams in the West as they now play a greater proportion of their games against the cellar dwellers in the East. Conversely, the best teams in the East now have fewer chances to feast on the weak teams at the bottom of their own conference.

Have you guys looked at the schedule for your teams? It's definitely abnormal. The Heat have a bunch of back to backs against the same opponent, but not like the typical home-and-home, both games at the same arena. In one 8 game stretch Miami plays 4 back to backs in a row, @Philly, vs Detroit, @ Toronto, @ Brooklyn. It makes sense to do it this way but I'm sure that introduces a greater potential for more randomness into outcomes.
