@NBASupes Toppin vs @Spud2nique’s Okongwu from the 2020 Draft. That should be another fun battle in this war.

Hey, I thought we agreed we're not callin' @NBASupes out on that .... I'm still too busy building a case on him for his Wall v Westbrook slander.  There's just so much evidence here I'm overwhelmed.

Ayo stop .. collaborate and listen, guys.  You may think Tom's screamin' "ICE!" to tell his guys to ice the pick 'n roll.  Nah, he's just shoutin' out his favorite rapper ...

I'm checking out the Knicks RealGM board...

Someone posted this starting lineup:

Capela > Noel
Collin < Randle
Bogdanovic < RJ

Young > Payton
Hill < Bullocks

Figured the media would jump hard on knicks but gotta admit I wasn't expecting THAT lopsided.  A lotta folks in for a rude awakening I think.  And again I'll just say, I don't think people are actually stopping to think about the Hawks being healthy for the first time all season. We've seen all of our guys individually for stretches throughout the season but really never seen them all together.  This could be a fun ride.

Wall was balling before Houston traded everyone and everybody and Westbrook was looking like it was the end. Post ASB Westbrook been a star and Wall been hurt. I'll take that. 

The draft isn't an exact science. I am grown, I can admit when I am wrong. Toppin and Bagley have been players I missed badly.

Nah, you have to consider the source. ESPN, they'd pick the big market team as long even if Julius Randle got COVID before the series (not wishing that on him at all.).

This a kinder gentler Supes than I was expecting, but I like it! 

[Gray Mule]

Wow!  ESPN expects Hawks to win 2!  Wonder which 2?  Let's just win the first 2 and get that part of it over!!

So game is Sunday? So first game in Atlanta will be a week from tomorrow

Yeah, I was expecting more fire.  I'm sorta disappointed, tbh.

I don't follow.  Game 1 Sunday. Game 2 Tuesday. Game 3 in Atlanta would be Thursday or Friday, right?

Yeah I think they do 2 days in between travel in the playoffs. They obviously didn't do that in the bubble last year.

Having very strong sentiments about something so inherently hard to predict never ends well. NBA draft is basically a crap shoot, or at the very least is brutally hard to predict who will pan out.

That's why I love you @NBASupes.  Your meltdowns are epic and glorious
