Golden State is. Maybe Toronto if their coach isn't trash and Kawhi is back to 2017 form. That's about it.
The ranking remains: Golden State at #1 and Rockets at #2. The only thing is that Bron left so Celtics slid into #3

The Rockets weren't better than the C's last year with Hayward out for the season, and they got worse while the C's young guys will get better. They won't be anywhere close to the C's level this year.

Ahahaha. Welp, can't wait for the season to begin to prove you wrong. No mental gymnastics for any of us if players get hurt.

As I said all season, you got good players and prolly the best coach (or tied with Pop) in the league. We got great players and a mediocre coach.

My rankings remain:yeshrug:

The Lakers have one all star and a bunch of unproven young players who are objectively worse prospects than the guys the Celtics have, and washed up vets. They aren't even on the C's level. And even if they were close, they have a 0% chance of getting to the Finals so we're not worried about them.

:mjlol: Milwaukee. Bro, your basketball knowledge is looking shaky.
yet they beat the celtics who had 2 all stars and now that they got an MVP level talent :mjlol:. Like they said this year your last chance at finals cuz sixers gonna take over the east

When? A regular season game? You're really citing a random ass regular season game as evidence of the Lakers being on the C's level? Stop it.

The Lakers aren't even a factor until they sign another superstar. The Celtics have better young players, a much better team top to bottom, a much better coach, and a much better organization. Nobody with any basketball knowledge has the Lakers on the Celtics level.

The C's are a younger team than Philly and already whooped them without their two best players. They're food.

Tatum is already universally considered better than Kuz, who is 3 years older than him.

Woj said Kyrie is almost certainly staying, but I guess I'll take some random Coli poster's word for it (a bitter Laker fan at that) over the most respected NBA insider. Also, even if he were to leave, they were a game away from the Finals without him, with a rookie Tatum. There is no scenario where the Ron Mercer years come back lol
