Random NBA Observations 2021 - 2022

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

They were for real last season and season before that

Who said that?

I didn't think they were, and nobody else did, in general, either. Folks don't even watch Jazz games nor do they like them, so you've got take those opinions with a grain of salt. They've got a proper second-unit now and have enough playoff experience. This is the best chance they'll get, probably, in our lifetime.

They were reg season bullies… flamed in the bubble and last season

Don't be surprised if the Jazz don't sneak in there.



I know folks don't rate them, but I think they're for real this season.

I'm not gonna say they're real just yet but I could definitely see them being like OKC was when GS won 73 and Spurs had 68 wins or something like that...they'll be breathing down both their necks throughout the season

I've watched nearly every single game of theirs this season, and they're playing with a different confidence. As I said above, their second unit is now one of the best in the league, which was previously their Achilles' heel. Now, that doesn't mean I'm saying that's automatically going to translate to the postseason, but I wouldn't be so quick to disregard their chances as if a GS/Phoenix WCF is a sure thing.

We're on in December so nothing really means a whole lot right now.

Dinwiddie is being way too passive though

He averaged 17 drives per game two years ago with the Nets.

He’s averaging 7 drives per game over the last 10 games.

Teams know the Bullets can’t make 3s and their PG is zero threat to attack paint, so teams crowed Beal and that’s it!

He's coming off major knee injury

As long as Gobert is a non factor on offense and food for quick shifty guards like Steph and CP3 they won’t be a serious factor

@Flight we need this one for Wiggins all-star season highlight reel

Yes. Something psychological is going on there. Understandable… but they ain’t paying him $18M per year to be a passive role player.

Fun fact of the night:

Warriors blew out the Suns by 20+ points
Suns had 35 free-throw attempts; Warriors had 12 free throw attempts.

Now how could the Warriors possibly blow out the Suns when they had 23 fewer free throws?

I wonder if EJ would be able to answer that. He might need the robots to work that out for him.
