Difference is the Raps have shown to be a top 3 team already in this conference recently...Its an easy conclusion given the top two teams in front of them have dropped off...
When half the conference was injured, yeah they showed they were a top 3 team that eventually lost to a 5 seed If the Bulls are healthy you're not better than them, period, the Cavs will be better and the Wiz/Hawks could be better as well. Come on breh, the Bulls had the same record without Rose or Pau, now they got McBuckets and the best European prospect in the world? Better hope Pooh isn't healthy....
Did you not say as early as THIS upcoming season they would drop off back to mediocrity,back to "reality" back to a bubble team or worse miss the playoffs entirely? Is this not what you said only a few short months ago young Wilt ??
I really do feel like a monetary wager is right around the corner...
One of my last posts from the old thread -
I've always liked Val, me and my breh @Miggs went back and forth over him vs Tristan Thompson earlier in the season, I said he'll be better long term than Thompson since he can play the 5.
I don't like the core because it's reliant on Lowry, just don't see how that's a smart investment moving forward. I'd love to be wrong, cause I think the Raps have great fans in general, but I don't see how this core with Lowry can be good over a long period of time. You need a major upgrade at PF and I don't see where you'll get it from, maybe if that Knicks pick turns out to be gold?

I said LONG TERM, you gave Lowry a disgusting contract for 4 years and drafted a player that wont be ready for a minute. What we betting
