Im sorry but how is it even remotely reasonable to have like the warriors over the magic. This seems like so much cope trying not to seem wrong about your preseason predictions.
I am shocked that we are number 1, usually after the trades it was always Boston or Milwaukee
Well we are the defending champs lol. Before this, the Nuggets didnt have the playoff success that the Celtics and Bucks had, but now they are the defending champs and havent lost a game at home and only lost 1 in total before the Jamal injury
Defending champs are usually given the benefit of the doubt even though repeating a championship hasn’t happened in a long time
