      Look at what his workload has been in past regular szns and playoffs… He now has 2 co-stars to do a lot of heavy lifting , & a 2 guard who can go off for 15-25 on any night (Oubre) & finally a backup big (Drummond) that can provide valuable minutes of defense & rebounding when Embiid is on the bench

    CP3 would rather go to San Antonio than team up with LeBron…😂 Bronny would rob CP3 of minutes. Then CP3’s former teammate happens to be his head coach. CP3 and JJ used to hate each other before becoming teammates. People easily forget how hated Redick was in college.
    I figure CP3 went to San Antonio for a few reasons…
    - Gets to play with Wemby
    - Gets to play under Pop
    - No state income taxes
    - Has a more meaningful role
    I thought CP3 should’ve returned to Phoenix. But since he spent years in Houston, he didn’t mind living in Texas again. I figure it’s his last year as he turns 40 next year in Year 20. He usually thrives as a mentor and not when other stars with big egos are around. One of his best seasons was his lone year in OKC mentoring Shai and other kids. Then his first season in Phoenix making the Finals.
    I don’t think the Atlantic division has the three best teams. NYC and Philly are still a bit unproven. Boston or Miami has won the East four of the last five years with the lone one by Milwaukee in 2021. NYC is extremely beatable and they did lose Hartenstein. While Philly has never made it passed the second round in two decades.
    From the free agency I’ve seen so far, Skip Bayless’ OKC looks like a dark horse and looks improved. Dallas and OKC improved but Denver and Minny didn’t.
    1. Boston Celtics
    2. Dallas Mavericks
    3. Oklahoma City Thunder
    4. Minnesota Timberwolves
    5. Denver Nuggets
    6. New York Knicks
    7. Philadelphia 76ers
    Paul George is NOT a winner. Similar to Kawhi, Embiid is not always healthy. Nothing really changes for Philly. They’re just as cursed as the Clippers.

    A big reason why there hasn’t been a back to back champ since the ‘18 Warriors is because the defending champ has been hit with an injury to one of their top 2 players since then which has led to some teams being out of sync by the time the playoffs roll around.

    I don't understand why folks are still so high on the Nuggets. They won a chip with a relatively easy road and playing out of their minds. Last season they lost key role players that contributed to their title run. And now they've lost another key player in kcp. Seems like they are banking on the young guys ballin next season. But what you saw against the Wolves was jokic defense being exposed. They are good but they aren't some dominant team.
