I know it's early, but it's almost NBA season so I had to post pre season pics. I'm not usually a fan of the same team winning every year, but the Warriors have been a fun team to watch. One of the best teams to ever been assembled, when they are on they are as close to unbeatable as Alabama.


That being said....I like the direction the Lakers are going, because we can't count out one of the best, LeBron. Thoughts?

They are an even bigger favorite than last year, they are a better team.

Lebron is 1 great player on a team with some good players

Golden State is almost Team USA at this point.

The Warriors starting 5 is literally an all-star team.

If they brought it with the same intensity every single night (which of course won’t happen) they could win 75-80 games.

Their competition got worse this year, so if course they are heavy favorites.

Lakers are going to be above average in my opinion. The Rockets and Celtics will be better than last season, so the Warriors have more competition there. And will complacency finally set in with the Warriors? We’ll have to see.

What do you mean it finally set in P? How many games did they win last year in regular season? And keep in mind they are GOAT. They were complacent as all get out last season. Until the playoffs. Then they got very lucky to still hold GOAT status after WCF, without Chris getting hurt there could very well be a new team in the conversation when we talk about GOAT... CC.

My family are warrior fans.

The team had some guys not taking care of ball and handing big leads to everybody.

They stopped that soon after they benched zaza who had been passing behind his back.

They had injuries the last 3rd.
They had 2 injuries to younger players who were just getting serious pt.
They were missed v cc.
They can't beat Boston or Houston without a great effort and a full compliment.

its been a while since you've seen Hayward.

Kahwi will make Toronto better.

Onward. This reminds me of when Boston with Larry kept both Isaiah and mj from the finals.

I confer favorite status on Celtics over all but warriors.

That includes your fragile cc.

I've seen Chris Paul v warriors forever. Once ever, did he stay healthy for a series and beat them. Once, out of 4 or 5.

It ain't happening Mr boom.
To be more specific, due to reality, I get both warriors and then Celtics.
You get cc, and raptors.

Hayward become overrated due to being out and being on the Celtics. Kawhi is easily the best player between those two squads. And Toronto is deeeep deep. Just like Boston.

I agree with most of it.
Hayward is the sticking point.
He might never be the man again if his body is over bball.
Or he might score at will over kahwi.

Only person I seen score at will on kawhi is hardwn. Safe to say ol’ gordon is not on that level.
