We need a Gradey “Big D Energy” vs Ausar “Working the D” matchup for the sickos

It’s the Atlantic. Boston is the best team in the league, Philly is top 5, the Knicks are a playoff lock IMO, and the Raptors and Nets are solid but more likely playin contenders. No bad teams in the Atlantic.

When the Leafs play here the ice fucking sucks, when they go to Sweden they give the Raptors a proper ice rink to play on. Go figure.

His house is in Burlington, which is definitely NOT Toronto lol

Pascal Siakam never gets tired

They haven’t played much yet, but realistically I think Booker is the best #2

Boston has the best 3/4/5

It’s the same type of defense the Raptors kept playing last year, switch heavy and aggressive defense that leaves a shitload of open corner 3’s. It maybe made some sense when they were playing without a real center, but they kept doing the same shit even after trading for Poeltl. This yeah the defense is so much better because you’re actually letting good defenders stay in front of their man without scrambling around switching everything. Scottie in particular looks way better defensively now that they aren’t switching him onto faster guards out on the perimeter every possession.

I know the Bucks have some poor defenders, but switching and scrambling around when you have Brook and Giannis to anchor the paint is so stupid. Asking Beasley to be your POA defender is braindead.

Always grossed me out when guys licked their fingers before shooting the FT (Nash and Carmelo come to mind)

Shit is nasty

Is Ben Taylor Chris Broussard’s cousin?

Maxey has been a superstar against the Raps for a while now

No luck? I think it’s mostly incompetence and not luck that’s the issue. Let’s not forget they drafted TWO point guards 5th and 6th overall in 2009 when Steph Curry went 7th.

Any team with Kyrie on it is a contender for this
