Shoulda tanked harder in 22. Jazz own damn fault they leaned too heavy on Conley, Clarkson and Olynyk. Coulda, woulda, shoulda. . . but they had a golden opportunity and just played too well to start the season and Ryan wanted an All-Star in Lauri since the game was in SLC that year.

Wemby is insane. I recall reading an article years ago (Simmons I think, back in Grantland days, but possibly Lowe) that indicated one of the reasons the East is perceived as so much weaker than the West is that, beginning with The Decision, NBA GMs in the East basically waived the white flag for years and didn't think they had a legitimate path to the finals. That affected everything from coaching to front office maneuvers, so the ripples of Wemby's gravity will be interesting to watch as well.

I hope he has a long and productive career because it's such a unique experience to watch, almost feels like a gift. That said, and I know this is gauche to mention, but reports that Wemby grew and is now at 7'5" are concerning. I know his team and the Spurs are being careful and mature about this, but between the serious blood clot and historical patterns of players over 7'0" and injuries, he's going to need to be lucky in addition to his discipline and routines. (And I wonder if other front offices - including Ainge the Younger - are banking on that, even though they'd never admit it.)

[On a final note, while I didn't think so at the time, after the entire Luka/Nico/Flagg insanity Conspiracy Flc firmly believes this draft was rigged as well. NBA got their most at-risk and important players to one of the most stable, developmentally-focused franchises. Hope with the gambling scandal people take another look at if Silver is the right choice here.]
 
S/o to Taelin Peter and the Pacers analytics staff. He’s playing opening night and I guarantee the only way he got drafted/scouted was draft models.
 
This has been one of the best opening weeks of basketball in a very long time. I think the new CBA has been awesome at making teams more even across the board. I've never seen the West so loaded ever in 30 years

Not to mention the point shaving and rigged drafts to support the betting side-hustle for the NBA millionaires club.
 
Ok has played 2 games and both were double overtime wins. That has to be the first time in history that has happened.

Everyone go look at Aaron Gordon stat line from last night. Probably the most amazing stat line I have ever seen from a player like him.
