I feel very good that we would be highly competitive w any team

I’m not scared of the cavs heat etc.

It’s pretty simple. The length and talent on the bucks celtics(w jaylen brown)and 76ers is the real question. You can see Brunson can be good but possibly not great. In order to have a chance against these trans it’s imperative grimes and Barrett play at premium levels on both sides of the ball

RIP Crushalot😞

You just couldn't be happy with 1 Jinx thread - you needed another!

I am thinking the same thing. There isn't a juggernaut lead by a franchise player out in the West or the East for that matter.

But I would not sleep on Denver or Memphis.

"I ain't fraid of no ghost"........

Look at the 6 game winning streak and we all embolden with expectations!
This team loses two in a row we gonna **** all over one or two players who are not upholding the high ceiling?
Its like "look at how good we are, wish we had".........

I agree with Briggs and of course we should not be "afraid" of any team! We are balling with the best of them.
PHX has yet to begin its real run with Durant. They might be a bit scary.
I can see top 3 in east realign and load manage its health for playoff run.
If we can get RJ back on track it does raise our ceiling. And stay healthy!!!!!!!!
JHart won't shoot 60% the rest of the way and teams will adjust to our defense.
But its all good!!!!

We have the talent to give any team a headache. The biggest issue IMO will be mental toughness. Playoffs are different. We dont know how players will respond, how the team will respond. This is a new experience for some key players.

Regardless of what happens, this is why Im glad the Knicks didnt tank this season. To give the young players the FO plans on building around, valuable playoff experience. No substitute.

Warriors and lakers falling apart due to age. Clippers are much better than us but I could see us taking it to 6 or 7 games. Grizzlies and Suns unfortunately probably sweep us

Miami scares me. They suck but lead the league in steals and FT’s. Uncanny stats. Their offense is bad.
Yet, they **** teams up in the last 5 minutes.
Riley has made some awful moves yet they made Conf finals last year?
Bill simmons calls them “zombies”. They are dead but keep coming!
