You're making an *** of yourself, and in turn it's going to lead people to push back, how is this hard to understand? Or we have a top 2 team in the league and FF is just hating.

I don't think the Lakers are out of the running, but they probably prefer Andre Iguodala to Kyle Korver but they can create a second FA slot by making THT a 2-way contract. They both fit in LeBron’s culture. Get as many guys on their last legs as possible so he can cry about not having enough help when he falls short in the postseason.

Meanwhile LeBron has what 8 finals appearances and 3 titles? Don't talk about falling short LMAO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could use VORP, and here is their rankings: Mike Conley Jr.: 74th Donovan Mitchell: 30th Rudy Gobert: 4th Now I don't subscribe too heavily to those advanced statistics, but the notion the Jazz have 3 top 25 players is a bit of a stretch IMO.

According to the FF poll they were all top 30. But to suggest they’re all not in that range is also a joke. Mitchell was elite the second half of last season carrying a terrible offensive team. Conley is one of the best two way players in the league. And Rudy is obviously the most dominant defensive player and an elite pick n roll big in the league.

There's like a total of 8 votes casted in each poll and anyone who gets a vote gets put up on the list. I could just vote for Robert Covington in the poll for #6, and then he'd wind up being like #9. Look how many votes were casted. It's a terrible poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champ11 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Utah has a good shot at being a top 2 seed in the west. My tiers as far as championship contenders right now is probably: Tier 1: Clippers, Bucks, Sixers Tier 2: Nuggets, Lakers, Rockets, Jazz, Warriors 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On FF where posters don’t even think defense, shooting, depth, or coaching are important in the NBA, they’re top 30... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danger Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Look at that you voted for your boy Mike Conley at #30, and only one other person voted for him. Poll is absolute trash this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
