Kind of crazy when you think Wilt scored 50 points 118 times.
Next closest person is Jordan who did it "only" 31 times.

[Cascadia]

Wilt averaged 50 for an entire season.

And added 25 rebounds a game

Not sure if these unis make me think Purple Highness or purple heinous.

tyson chandler is a good pick up. they need another center. they need a level headed veteran. he should help that locker room a lot. Think he is from LA too.

surprising on phoenix's pack. chandler seemed like the perfect mentor for a guy like deandre ayton

Tyson and LeBron can both hang out and joke about how as High Schoolers they drove Escalades and Hummers.

Anybody think before the season started that the Bucks would be 8-1, the Nuggets would be 8-1,
the Kings would be 6-4, and the Jazz, Lakers, and Rockets would all be sub.500 with the Rockets being 3-5? Me either.

I said it 2 years ago, Luke Walton is no better of an NBA coach than 500+ other guys would be.
I'm convinced LeBron wants him to stay around so LeBron can be the real head coach of that team.
Way too much talent to be a sub .500 team.
People like to point out how terrible the Cavs are without LeBron, and they are freaking terrible, but no one likes to point out that the Lakers were better record wise last season after their first 10 games without LeBron.
I know, much tougher schedule this season and I was just pointing out a fact.
I do realize any team is better with LeBron on it.

I'm going to go ahead and make my worthless end of season predictions on 11/05/18

East
1) Celts
2) Raptors
3) Bucks
4) Pistons
5) 76ers
6) Pacers
7) Wizards
8) Hornets

West
1) Warriors
2) Rockets
3) Lakers
4) Spurs
5) Thunder
6) Nuggets
7) Jazz
8) Pelicans


Eastern Finals = Celts/76ers
Western Finals = Warriors/Rockets

Finals = Celts/Warriors

Champs = Warriors

You really think the Lakers will finish 3rd in the West?

It'll be tough, but I'd say 3-5 is a safe range.

Obviously I have no real idea. I figure a few teams will be better than expected and few will be worse so I am saying the Lakers just may finish 3rd. They probably won't and if I had to bet on it I would say they finish worse than 3rd.

I'm just wondering if the Bucks are for real. Hard to say they're not right now.

Sixers are finalizing a deal to acquire Jimmy Butler.

Oh yes. Embiid is going to be on a super team!

[Deleted User 183]

Sixers Super Bowl!

[Deleted User 75]

Saric and Covington part of the deal. Might work out well for both sides.

[Deleted User 183]

Sixers win the championship when KD joins them next season. Enough cap space? Probably not.

[Geezer]

Saric is a damn good player.

[Cascadia]

Ugh, garbage trade for both teams

[Deleted User 183]

Saric is a damn good player.

Sure he is. So are most NBA players.
Got to give something to get something.

[randylahey]

good trade for the timberwolves. covington and saric should fit well with rose/teague wiggins and towns. gives them young versatile players lots of shooting. hell of a defender in covington. got rid of a locker room cancer who didnt want to be there in the last year of his contract.

risky risky risky for the 76ers. will butler cause problems on that team? will he re-sign? its Embiids team. never going to be butlers
