Really interesting off-season and I think next season will be way more exciting. The Cavs, Celtics, Rockets, OKC, and to a lesser extent MN, could make for a really exciting post-season. I think Spurs will be gunning extra hard for the Ws, so that's a factor is well. I don't think I'm going out on a limb by saying the Ws are still heavy favorites, but we shall see.

I think Silver just forced the anthem conversation to really take place. On one hand, he's a total moron for trying to force the issue on athletes who are generally pissed about Trump. But part of me thinks it's just for ratings and to actually bring the issues to light, so I'm not so sure.

Convince me the acquisition of Chris Paul makes the rockets a contender. I feel like Harden's rise to MVP level play had a lot to do with him playing point guard.

I know the west is loaded, but if CP3 can't at least make the Western Conference semifinals competitive, will people stop acting like he's such an elite player?

Elite nut puncher. Top 3 all time.

he’d been a MVP-caliber player before moving to the point
