I'm on mobile and editing would be a pain in the *** but obviously my list was a respnse to Based Jesus' list, not Mamba's. And there's no order.
 
Draymond
Lillard
Butler
Millsap
DeAndre
Giannis
Towns
Horford
Love
Drummond
Hayward
Bosh if he can play
Conley
Isaiah
Dirk even in his old age
LMA
Jokic
Bledsoe if healthy
Favors
Whiteside if his head is on straight
Reggie Jackson
Marc Gasol if healthy

Off the top of my head, there's 20+ more in addition to your list that I'd take over DeRozan. Awwsome is right, he's not top 30.

I really don't like Derozan's game but c'mon man...

38 year old Dirk, Bledsoe, Favors, REGGIE JACKSON and I love him but also Jokic are not better than Derozan in the prime of his career right now. And Bosh can't be put on any active lists right now til he actually shows he's going to be able to play again. Isaiah Thomas and Hayward are a toss-up and it's too hard to really compare a guard like Derozan to some 7'1 centers and say who's better.
 
does nothing but score and his favorite shot is long  twos ,  is a career 27  percent  3 point shooter. ehh. not a fan.

Not a DeRozan fan, but getting to the line frequently and shot creation are huge pluses (in the regular season for him anyways). But yeah, I wouldn't want anything to do with him.
 
I'll take those one by one.

- Dirk: If this is the year his game falls off a cliff then so be it, but I need to see it first. The way he played last year, I'll still take that over DeRozan.

- Bledsoe: His main problem is he's really injury-prone, which is why I wrote if healthy. If healthy he's a real good two-way player and I'll easily take him over DeRozan.

- Favors: Don't see what the problem is, he's better.

- Reggie Jackson: What exactly is DeRozan better at, why the all caps like it's outrageous?

- Jokic: Ok fine, we can wait til he plays more minutes I guess, but it won't be long.

- Bosh: I clearly wrote if he can play. If his career is over, then obviously not.

- Isaiah: Better passer, and shoots threes instead of long twos.

- Hayward: Can actually defend his position.

Nobody likes Demar's game it seems
can't shoot threes and actively hunts for contested off the dribble long twos.

Some people hate watching James Harden play, DeRozan has the most unwatchable game in the league.
 
Speaking of Anthony Bennett that draft is worse than the 2000 draft to me. It legit has one guy who has consistent all star potential in Alphabet, the rookie of the year is a trade chip, and Anthony Bennett is the biggest bust I've ever seen.

Still hard to believe they took games 5 and 7 on the road against the 73 win defending champs.

Coming back from 3-1 with only 1 home game is incredible in any series. Doing it against THAT team?
It's an incredible feat for sure. I sometimes still don't really believe it happened honestly lol

Crazy how so much had to go right for the Cavs to do it though. You had Dray get suspended for Game 5, then Bogut misses game 6-7, then Iggy's back goes out in game 6 I think, it was just a dynamo of things that happened to the Dubs at the worst possible time, who've been the model of great fortune these last two years. All that coincided with Bron and Kyrie reaching god levels and the Dubs still almost pulled it off. Epic series.
 
Very accurate Eastern conference. Yeah, i can't wait to see Indiana.

I'm a Boston fan and lifer but people are really putting my squad up there with high expectations. Y'all really think Boston is THIS good? I'm glad to see that but i don't want to get overhyped and be let down this season. I Hope Boston can nab that no.1 seed or at least run into Cleveland in the ECF's. Not in the first or second round.


Boston is definitely the #1 candidate for a letdown season

I agree, I just want a top 2 seed.


But they got Horford & have the best coach in the league

Still pissed we gave Horford $113 million :x


Yes. They were top 3 last year and added an all-star + a lottery pick.

Toronto was stagnant this year and Cleveland will take a back seat. That being said, I don't see anyone topping them off.

I hope your right dude. I want to avoid Cleveland for the first couple rounds.
 
DeMar makes $139 mil.....

My goodness my life sucks.

Yo but it's surreal to see DeMar be the second best player in his position. I didn't think the kid would last this long in the NBA out of USC. I'd think he'd be a journeyman or overseas right now. Proud of the kid! :smokin
