The West is so stacked this year. Who do you think the worst team in the West will be? I think it’s the Pelicans, Blazers, or Rockets

      They’re never healthy, in fact the season hasn’t started yet and they’re already the most injured team in the league.

      Man a couple years ago they gave us a run for our money. I think Brandon Ingram is underrated. Jonas and Jose are excellent. They got some dudes. There is just the big pink Zion in the room.

      Zion and BI missed a ton of games last year and they still ended up around .500

        They were competing near the top of the west before Zion got injured. I thought (perhaps foolishly) that they’d be a 50 win team last season, and I think they really were with a little better injury luck. They’re deep, have a youth movement, and have some top tier non-overlapping star power

          Man early season was so great, Suns and Pels battling for the top seed in the West. Booker and Zion in MVP talks, honestly was an all around great and competitive beginning to the season. Then the injury bug just wiped out the league 😿

            Nuggets were only losing cause we actually were giving heavy minutes to DJ it hurt to watch. As soon as he was perma benched we went on huge WS

              Remember the Spurs? Now, I don’t even want to think about how much of a hot streak they’re going to go on this season.

      Yeah imo it’s the Rockets, if not them then they Blazers

      personally i’m just glad we aren’t in the running anymore :D even if the worst happened, we still have enough good young talent to win some games
