Now am I talking about Luka or Harden???

you forgot to include a key piece of information: are they fun to watch play? but I suppose that would make it obvious

Okay if the Nuggets can't take this home game against Minnesota without Towns/Gobert I'm convinced the Grizz will run away with the West. Lakers looking fraudulent too losing against Sabonisless Kings at home

Lakers are flat out trash without both AD and LeBron healthy

The 13th seed, the Lakers, are currently exactly 2 games behind the 5th seed, the Mavs

At first I thought that spoke to how deep the West is but then I ran the numbers and the East is 137-121 against the West this year. euph has been vindicated

Thomas Bryant had a stretch where he looked like an all star center and Lebron has been playing out of his mind but I guess it's unsustainable

LeBron has been burning both ends of the candle and roleplayers occasionally step up but the team has no genuine defensive identity without AD. It's like the Warriors without Draymond. poo poo gets out of hand quickly.

he’s been complaining to the refs with more energy than he plays defense

I'd say what Luka and the rest of the team did to Phoenix on the road in game 7 last year was a splash imo, although Harden got to the conference finals a couple of times too

i feel like if you are a fan of a team you genuinely have to believe that your team is a team of destiny and the kings are laying the groundwork for that in a way i feel that the sixers only had when they believed in the ben simmons and joel embiid process combo

I used to think euph was right about a lot of stuff while being wrong about the method, like the doctor checking up on everyone in the insane asylum by asking them who the president is. First guy says "Four", second guy says "Tuesday", third says "Biden" and the doctor asks him how he knows and he says "Easy, Four minus Tuesday"

Lately though I wonder whether instead of being the doctor we in the thread are in fact the Four and Tuesday guys.
