Herro to me has always been east coast Kuzma. Way more hype than substance.

Well, you might be proven right in the long run, and he certainly doesn't look like much right now, but I watched every minute of Miami playoff ball last season, and that dude was OWNING it at the time. Kuzma has never even dreamt of playing as well as Herro was in the bubble.
Bucks did what they were suppose to do, protect home court. But I didn't expect them to make a franchise record 22 3's either, in a 132-98 waxing of Miami. This Bucks team may actually be better this year.

Imagine them not screwing up in the offseason. Would have Bogdanovic as well. 16/4/3 43.8% from 3.

Barkley said post game he thinks Bucks are built for Playoffs with additions of Tucker and Holiday.   Regular season doesnt mean anything

Time will tell.

If Mavs would be looking to buy a pick I am sure NO, OKC and especially BKN have very little use of their gazillion second round picks.

I think it's safe to say the Knicks are having a renaissance.
Joe Harris is hotter than fish grease. 8/11 6/8 from 3. 22 pts with 3 mins to go from halftime. Nets are shooting 60% from the field as a team. If they just play a little defense,  when they are clicking, who's gonna beat them? Who do you double team?  They have elite scorers.
The Celtics are a disaster of a team. Soooooo glad the Mavs aren't in their situation.

Could be worse. Brown and Tatum are both legit, and both young. There's something wrong in their locker room, and has been for a while, I think, but if they fix that and unload some money...you know, just reset a bit, they can be right back in the mix.

I think Tatum and Brown both fall into the not good enough to win a championship as a first option category. Also a badly constructed roster. Great guard/wing rotation but not even rotation player quality in the front court. Giving up the only legit big on the roster to avoid the luxury tax was an epic failure.
