Pistons & the Craptors are 1 & 2 in the East

[KD7]

I think this is the weakest eastern conference I have seen in my entire life

I remember the days from 04-18 when the East used to be an absolute bloodbath

Well then what does that say for the West?

The Hawks went 5-0 out west before coming home and losing to Detroit.

Celtics got hit with a nuke, Cleveland is underperformed (and I think Garland has been hurt). Knicks should probably also have a better record but I'm not sure what's up with them.

They took a voluntary downgrade at Head Coach.

Thibs may be better but he gets regilar season success by wearing out his team's core players. Woodson likely won't gameplan defense as well but having fresher players in postseason could make a positive difference.

Nah. The grit won't be there.

Similar situation to when Flip Saunders took over for Larry Brown in Detroit. Folks were excited at the thought that the offense would open up. And they did score more. But when it came time to buckle down & strap up, their edge was lost and they grew soft.

LB led the Pistons to a chanpionship. Thibs got the Knicks to the conference finals. Good year and Im sure that upsetting the celtics was a high but losing to the Pacers showed they have a ways to go. And that was with Brunson bailing them out frequently. I am sure that Brown is also capable of riding Brunson.

Kobe led the pistons to a championship. Larry got them to the finals

Larry Brown’s fraudulent, fickle, demanding mania …
… does not equal Thibbs defensive genius and genuine coffin nail grit.

Terrible comparison personally between the two men, albeit fair in terms of what occurred to the team itself.

Knicks did voluntarily downgrade, and it’s showing.

I guess fully healthy Brandon Ingram is the final piece of this contending Raptors.

Masai (forever may he be remembered) and Bobby built up a nice team



team has perfect talent and chemistry. 4th pick scottie barnes playing like an allstar best all-around game and ingram one of the most underrated scorers aka kd-lite mesh perfectly.


role-players are very good too and everyone on the team can defend.




its gonna be a fun season.
