Orlando is a good test. They are above .500 and on that list. Hope we get to 4-4 by the end of tomorrow.
I don't mind this sort of approach to analysis. I extremely mind it with these samples.
Yes, we need to be better against top teams. No, the record against .500+ teams 15 games into the season is not remotely indicative of whether we are performing better against top teams this year versus last.

It wasn't until he went through the Kings (which he called hell) that he learned to be humble enough to accept a supporting role, even before he got hurt. Now Pop is making it work for him and DeMar (and DeMar also learned how to be less selfish on the court).

Sources on @TheAthleticNBA @WatchStadium: The Washington Wizards had a volatile practice within recent days, with verbal altercations among players and an exasperated Bradley Beal saying toward team officials: "I've been dealing with this for seven years."

"On Tuesday the Raptors are in Orlando against the 9-8 Magic, who are playing well — thanks in small part to a good stretch of ball from Terrence Ross — but still present a very winnable matchup. The following night they are in Atlanta to face Trae Young, Vince Carter, and the 3-13 Hawks. On Friday the Raptors return home to face the dumpster fire otherwise known as the 5-11 Washington Wizards."
Should be 2 W and could be three but Orlando has been playing bettter than their record so you never know. Kawhi should be good to go for games 1 & 3 but let's hope Lowry is healthy but still gets some rest during these garbage time potential games.Last edited by G__Deane; Mon Nov 19, 2018, 06:08 PM.

Ingram, Kuzma, Ball, it doesn't matter, they all suck. They're all overrated. The funny thing about the Lakers is, i think their best young player is Hart but no one ever talks about him lol.

This year Wall makes $20M....and next year he is making north of 40$M for the next 4.
Hard...very hard...incredibly fuckin hard to make salary work for any of these guys as the raps salary grid is now constructed. Especially Wall who puts the Raps in tax Hell for a while for a guy who has a perceived attitude problem.
Porter and Beal ..sure...but the whiz are going to want draft picks and sure thing younger guys and expirings to make the salary work. Not seeing it.There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.
