Holy hell did they just come out of nowhere, best off season in any sport in a long time this:

- AD teams up with LeBron
- Kawhi and PG on the Clippers
- KD and Kyrie to the Nets
- Zion drafted into a promising situation
- 76ers signing Horford and Butler going to the Heat.
- Kemba going to the Celtics
- Warriors making the best out of KD leaving by getting Russell in return.

You have 8-10 legit title contenders.

Not really, they signed Danny Green to a 2 year contract so they must have already known he's not joining them.

PG cost 5 unrestricted 1sts. Their own in 2022, 2024 and 2026 plus Miami's 2021 and 2023.

Lakers would’ve loved JJ Reddick/Seth Curry/Bogdanovic as opposed to paying KCP 8 mill/year.

This is just for the regular season standings not who I think wins the title.

I think you are spot on with all of them but I'd swap Indiana and Toronto.

Also interested to see if Westbrook gets traded.

Expecting a Lakers vs Bucks/76ers finals. Whilst Clippers have more quality around their stars I think the big game experience in the Lakers locker room can give them that edge. Also if Boogie returns to even 90% of his former self then its a wrap.

If Russ gets traded to Miami then they automatically become a eastern conference threat.

As for Clippers, great move by them....but it still doesn't put them above Lakers. Lakers are too big for them, particularly if Bron will actually start at PG - their starting 5;
Lebron
Danny Green
Kuzma
AD
Boogie

Wow

Have you seen the latest Boogie video? He's lost a tonne of weight... looks in great shape claiming his injury is 100% healed... LA all Day!!

AD and Boogie banging down low will be a force, Clippers can have all the big two way wings they want but with a 6'8 centre in Harrell they aren't beating the Lakers 4 times out of 7.

Westbrook traded to Houston. CP3 gets the arse and is sent to OKC. Clippers won that trade gloriously.

Pretty crazy how the landscape of the league has changed in 3 years.

Clippers were basically next up with the team they had. Now Clippers are next up with a completely different team LOL

I cant believe Australia are $21 to win the world cup this year, get some of that action ffs because delly, simmons, ingles, mills, baynes all should be involved
I also got on them when they pushed out to $34, with usa now eliminated the draw has opened up very nicely

next time listen to the rodzilla tbh
