Let's be real...
GS, PHX, Utah and Memphis are legit.
Covid has affected this season and team gave won some games they probably shouldn't have.
If we didn't have Russ, I'd agree with you.
But we will see.

Side note, but this is what I mean when I try to talk to people about large market areas and small market areas, like Milwaukee. They are the reigning NBA champs, with no major changes, 4th in the conference, just 2 games behind #1 in the conference, and no one ever mentions them in title talks.

WORRIED
ONCE WESTBROOK RAISES HIS IQ, improves his shooting, changes his attitude. Once AD gets healthy and starts shooting like ADisney again. Once Melos feet get loose and he can stay with defenders. Once at least 2 of our 6’2 guards grow another 6 inches…
The league shall be in ruin

Any shot depends on AD and him not playing soft.
If we don't get bubble AD there is no shot.

AD is getting into my nerves now
Chuck makes me believe now and question his OFF-Season training
He should train with Lebron

I think he bulked up and it messed up his shot. Prolly to play more center to handle the banging and strengthen his brittleness if thats a word. Well, it back fired, cus when he does play, he's relatively trash.

Look at Giannis the rookie Buck.
Look at Giannis now.
Determination and wanting to be IT won't fade w/ bulk, and All Done ain't got that. That's the problem.

Maybe Austin Reaves is smashing AD's wife a la Shannon brown and Pau? Did anyone ever stop to think about that?

And yet a lot of Lakers fans were baggin when I kept saying in 2019 that Javale was an ultra important piece starting at the 5 next to AD even though he only played 10-12 min a game. It's beyond me how one would think Javale wasn't a key contributor
Folks failed to realize that's a quarter of impact basketball from a battle tested veteran who can still ball and provides the much needed length and paint presence that's important against the playoff teams.
The Eye test.
