Gotta check with the Miami media to see if Joe Cronin still got ripped off
FROM SHAMS:
Portland traded Damian Lillard for Jrue Holiday, Toumani Camara, and assets in 2023 -- then Holiday to Boston for Robert Williams III, Malcolm Brogdon and assets.
Now, the Blazers have both Lillard and Holiday, plus Williams, Camara, a 2029 first-rounder and two Bucks swaps.

Jrue + Dame on the Blazers only after Jrue wins a ring w/ Boston and Dame costs the Bucks $100M+.
A+ stuff.

Love what the Nuggets have done... instantly makes them a serious challenger in the West IMO.
Build as deep a roster around Jokic/Murray as you can of athletic wings who can push pace, defend/switch and hit an open corner 3.

What's the last team to win a title where the general consensus was they were not set up to repeat?
Not saying OKC can't, obviously they can and should be favored, but winning a title requires so much injury luck (on top of being the best team) that just seems rarer and rarer.

I really thought OKC was on a different level than this. I’m certainly being a hater but as someone who deep down thought they’d beat my Cs I have not been impressed.
Their halfcourt offense is atrocious, their rebounding is average, pressure them and they start throwing the ball around.

The lack of NBA basketball the last few days has reminded me how much I love NBA basketball, and that the offseason is rapidly approaching.

Jaylen is even better. He's 33 wins and three Conference Finals before 24 and that's in four seasons because his rookie season was "age 20" and his birthday is late in the year.
His rookie year he started the playoffs as a bit player but his role grew as the playoffs went on.

Tatum is 27 wins and two Conference Finals BUT Ant is in five seasons because his birthday is August and Tatum's is March and the playoffs fall in between.
Tatum is 41 wins and three Conf Finals (and one NBA Finals) if you count through is "age 23" fifth season.
