Bold of you to assume we'll take a 4 seed. It still wouldn't surprise me to see us fall into the play-in.
I think we match up well against the T-Wolves...outside of ANT, they don't have many other playmakers who can takeover the game. If we can get Sengun back in rhythm, we can beat them in a 7-game series...I don't think we matchup well against the Nuggets or Lakers (the refs will favor the Lakers) in a 7-game series.
Everyone team is forcing the ball out KD's hand, its worst than last year with Jalen Green. At we had Dillon Brooks or FVV (unfortunate injury) to hit open 3s or at least drive the ball to the basket. The Lakers have 3 primary ball handlers/playmakers who can counter our so-called superior defense. They will eat us like a snack in a 7 game series. Rafael Stond should've stayed as a lawyer and not play FANTASY Basketball with our team because he's terrible in building rosters! Got lucky last year...hence why we lost in the 1st round. A healthy FVV can't solve our roster issues...they game plan to just gather all the bricks with Steven Adams/Capela, but now Ime has been exposed of his inability to draw up offensive plays. By the way, I was his biggest supporter this season but damn his coaching sucks!!! If we didn't have KD, we'll be a lottery team this year...KD is saving Ime's job
I think we'll likely end up at 6th. Phoenix just have a brutal stretch run schedule. It's very unlikely that they will catch us. But it's very likely that we end up behind Lakers, Nuggets, and Wolves.
