Our Formula has a Shot (Slim). Our 2 Studs will be matchup problems for other Super Teams

Is it a good shot no but we are definitely a different mold than GSW. It appears the 2 new super teams (Hou and OKC)are trying to assemble lesser versions of what GS already has. They will not compete w/ GS unless GS suffers an injury.
Pels at least went a different route by assembling a couple studs that GS will have trouble guarding. I know it's a long shot and I will require Pels to surround them with some good 3pt shooting and defense but I give it to Dell for at least trying a different formula.

OKC is far from a super team. If they're a super team then the Pels are too.

Pels championship odds jumped from 1/100 to 1/66 this morning.

Wait until we sign Swaggy P.
It'll go at least to 1/65.

Something is going on with the Lakers too. Their odds are way off reality unless a big move is taken into account. Don't get it.

Yea I'd put the Pels and Thunder in the same category
Posted on 7/1/17 at 9:01 am to DeionDeion
Scratch that. Odds updated June 29. So we will see if they drop from 1/66 after free agency.

I bet those Lakers odds were when they were a favorite to land PG

The Thunder are once again the same team they've had for years except it's Paul George instead of Durant. Probably fair.

All the other teams except SA are assembling teams to improve their playoff seed knowing they don't have a shot against GS barring significant injury.
Pels are trying to assemble a team that will be beat GS. It's definitely a long shot.

Russ is a phenomenal talent but he has to learn to work with other players. The fact that OKC had KD, Russ, and Harden in the same roster still blows me away

Well PG is not Durant so I'd say they are a few steps back.

Harden, russ and kd got to finals.
Lost to lebron, dwade, bosh and miller.
4 to 1.

Also the surrounding players and bench is much worse... worse team than with KD overall

just depends if our big men go away from the long jumper/3pt shooting decisions they made last year. That is not winning basketball
Posted on 7/1/17 at 11:11 am to STEVED00
They need to fire Gentry. You've basically got 3-4 years right now to get your shite together and become a threat to at least make the conference finals and keep AD / Boogie. Can you honestly look at Gentry and say this is the guy to do it? I don't know you can. And I have no idea who else to hire.

Vegas doesn't give a shite who is better, or who wins. They care about making money. People are stupid. Give the Lakers better than expected odds, and morons will bet on them even though every rational person on the planet knows they arent making the playoffs much less winning a championship.

I agree on AD, but Cousins' 3pt % was better than a lot of guards.
If he can sustain 37.5% on 3s I'm fine with him shooting 5-6 per game.

I don't think Dell was trying to build a team with a star center and PF. Boogie was who was available and they were able to get him.
I don't think it was some 2-big design that Dell had been trying for. It's just who was obtainable.

It could work, I suppose. Nobody will be able to replicate
Golden State.
