I wouldn’t be surprised if you are right about the Celtics.

What does this have to do with the NBA season? Go back to the grading thread if you want to yell at clouds

Its happening in the NBA season.

I already said that, but then I realized its dumb to predict anything this early in the season. For example, if Hauser emerges as a true sniper or Brogden complements the team really well, that changes the whole equation.

gameissued · 10-12-2022, 11:57 AM

I predict Bol Bol gets a triple double! And then another team gets broken up and will go after him after all the hype. The Orlando Magic will finally land an All-Star caliber player. Luka Magic!

Mmmm maybe not Luka, but I could see someone like Domantas Sabonis returning to the team that originally drafted him.

msink28 · 10-12-2022, 12:02 PM

Yes, my favorite time of the year, the baseless hot takes time!

Warm:
The Bulls won't make the playoffs. Clock struck midnight on Demar last year.
Ben Simmons makes it most of the way back and is a borderline All-Star.
Kyrie and KD have a public fight of some sort.

Warmer:
Lillard demands out within first 20 games of the year.
Draymond gets suspended within first 30 games of the year.
Phoenix is in the play-in. So is Miami.

HOT:
Dallas implodes. Luka asks out.
Minnesota makes the Western Conference Finals.
Clippers win the title. Paul George spends whole year in MVP conversation.

amg2002 · 10-12-2022, 12:16 PM

Warriors go 75-7. Curry and Thompson take significant minutes off

Nets barely above .500 at 42-40. Play in game loss. KD starts to look old

LeBron and AD play less than 50% of their games.

Evan Mobley is the MVP as the Cavs finish 1st in the East. Bounced in round 1

Pelicans make the conference finals - swept by the Warriors

Smostyjitty · 10-12-2022, 01:26 PM

Wolves and Pelicans in WCF. Zion and Edwards put on an epic dunk show.

Giannis unleashes a reign of terror on the Eastern Conference but still not enough to defeat Embiid and suddenly Big Game James Harden.

Warm: Nets finish top 3 in East
