Random NBA Observations 2019 - 2020

Griz team is fun good win against Denver

I'm loving how Ja has learned to just pick his spots. He seems unstoppable when he decides he does want to score but if the team is rolling he just stays working as a facilitator.

Inside the NBA is wild tonight.

The league is covering their eyes as if this team isn't going on a CLASSIC run.


An eastern conference Spurs-esque run is forming in real-time.

Yeah, it's amazing, but we've been flying under the radar all year, and will continue to do so with what happened this weekend. Everyone gonna be rooting for the Lakers to win the title, but I don't see how they beat us 4 out of 7. Of course I said the same about teams last year too, but there's something different about the team and Giannis this year. Who the hell is gonna stop us?

Booker is easily my favroite player besides Trae right now.

No flaws in his offensive game.

4th fastest player to reach 7,000 points...Only Bron, KD, and Melo above him.

Also shooting over 50% from the field & 92% from the FT line.Once his 3pt

shot comes back around, it's going to get real scary.He'll probably average

30 a game in the next few years.

Spirit of Kobe possessing every damn 2-guard in the league right now.

Giannis is better. He's hitting shots from mid and 3. His ability to find open men when the defense collapses (the whole reason we lost last year) has improved big time. The one area that can hurt us is his free throw shooting. I don't know how, but it just keeps getting worse. He used to be pretty good. Now, not so much. Gonna see plenty of Hack-A-Giannis in the playoffs. He's gonna have to make them.

And as far as the team: nevermind the 3pt shooting, the elite interior defense, the historic net rating we're working on, hell Middleton and Bledsoe playing great; the main difference IMO is Donte. For a team full of guys rigid in their roles, he's out there flying around like a maniac. He causes so much havoc on defense, and his off-ball cutting is very good for a young guy already. He plays with so much confidence. I look at him as a 'bright lights' kind of player. The kind of guy that's gonna shine when the stakes are highest. I believe he's gonna have some moments in May and June where folks are wondering where the hell he came from.

They will have a better record but theyre doing the same they did last year in the regular season...blowing teams out.

Wont really know til the 2nd round...

And we were good in the playoffs too. I don't understand why ppl say we choked. We were a shot away from taking a 3-0 lead (and basically ending that series) against y'all. One shot, and we're champs instead. Instead we have to listen to all this nonsense about 'getting it done' in the playoffs. Gimme a break.

why folks act like the Bucks didn't get to the ECF last year & lose to the eventual champions sure they didn't go out looking the best but they didn't lose in a first round upset either You build on that which it looks like they did & now we wait to see

Cant keep looking at 2000's shortcomings and blame it on LeBron. I lived through it
