The Nets will definitely win more games then the Suns. The Nets play in a easy division. The Suns play in arguably the toughest. We need Knight to comeback.

Okafor is a center and he always chill on the perimeter on defense. Really bad pick and roll defender and just so so rebing for his size. He gives you buckets and nth else.


He really is just an Al Jefferson. Yeah I'm pretty damn happy with Russell and glad the FO knew better than me. That's why I trust them when it comes to drafting.

I had Okafor at #5. he is really similar to Jefferson, you are correct..... With DLO and Myles Turner at 3/4, and Porzingis at #2 with Towns at #1. They should just hire me already....

Nah. I have 1. Towns, 2. Russell, 3. Porzingis, 4. Myles Turner, 5. Stanley Johnson so far.

Although when it's all said and done, it will be Russell 1 and the rest...who cares?

Sure it's definitely possible. Don't hold your breath though, Philly are masters of this stuff.

It's still possible. I mean if we think about it, we are only 3 games behind the Sixers in wins after all. And we got a winless Feburary to look forward too.

I guess it depends on when Okafor feels like trying on defense and when players like Ish Smith don't miss point blank wide open layups.

Ish Smith is a complete scrub. He gets nice numbers because he holds the ball for 20 of the 24 seconds they have to make a play.

Yeah but he's their best scrub and he'll randomly go off for them and win games

Ugh. Durant with that long 3.

Suns actually played hard and tried and kept it pretty close but Durant and Westbrook are too much to overcome.

They didn't play bad this game, just wasn't good enough for obvious reasons. They will get some wins in there.

The ending to the game was comical. I'm convinced now that we've mistaken Kobe as a basketball junkie when he's in fact a hero junkie. I'd be so mad if I wasn't coveting Simmons.

The Suns play the lakers home and away within a few days of each other in middle march, and next week against the nets at home. other than those 3 games they will be hard pressed to win any of them. My guess is they win 3 more at best the rest of the way, perhaps 1 upset and a win against us and another against the Nets. They have 16 to 17 wins written all over them, they are speed free falling....

Prediction for the current week...

30. Suns 16/17 wins
29. Sixers 17/18 wins
28. lakers 18 wins
27. Nets 20 wins

Hope I am wrong and we get at least the 2nd spot for a better chance....

Very winnable games from both Sixers and Nets today.

Grizzlies still have Zach and Conley but with Gasol out, offense should be better for the Nets today. And the Kings are a mess especially with the coaching situation.
