Miami better get an A+ 🤷🏽♂️ Edit: and of course, over looking key role players like Omer Yurtseven and Caleb Martin we signed who have helped Miami stay at the top of the East while Lowry, Butler, and Bam missed 10+ games
Im sorry but chris paul is absolutely playing at a 30 mil contract level. Kid is averaging 14 and 10 and 2 steals a game with grat field goal percentages and is the closer in the 4th quarter. Granted i am a suns fan, I do think that his value comes from much more than just scoring. He helped ayton improve defensively and just does not need to score the ball. Just last night he had 27 and 13. Booker had 33 and went cold in the second half, and chris took it upon himself to seal the game and take home the dub. Book is the scorer, but chris is the facilitator. It's just different with him on the court imo.
I'd grade New Orleans lower at mid season. Zion hasn't stepped on the court at all and the people they let go was to focus more on centering everything on Zion. Can't do that if he's not on the court. If he doesn't play at all this season or plays less than 15 games (31 games left as of 2/2/22) then I'd be looking at other options if I was New Orleans. This KID has had too many injuries already, even dating back to college, and the league is not kind to big men. Either go all in with Ingram, which I don't think is that kind of player or you cut your loses with Zion and trade him while his value is still good.
@@RemyKingKen Steph wasn't constantly injured early in his career. Even though it took him a few years to become the best 3 pt shooter in the game, he was still able to play. Zion can't even get on the court right now.
Westbrook is averaging 19 8 8 and only averages half a turnover more then lebron he averages more rebounds and assists then lebron bron is also taking the 4th most shots in the NBA while being a terrible defender the problem is lebron dominates the ball and plays for stats
I can agree on miami heat starting off on B-, however miami heat has been doing way better than expected with their starting 5 and their talented bench players. Erik Spolestra's coaching while a majority of their starting 5 were facing injuries that let them away for weeks on end has lead to their bench players to stand up and take over the spotlight. Max struss, caleb martin, gabe vincent, omar yurtseven, all bench players has been playing exponentially. Kyle lowry trade was the jack of all trades because he was the missing piece for miami heat on ball handling, passes, rebounds, assists, and giving his fellow teammates open shots from inside and outside the paint. I agree on ducan robinson in having a huge 5 year 90 million contract as his productivity is low, but not a lost cause. His recent game against lakers has shown that he can still shine on the court but he needs to do it constantly. To me, and this is my opinion since i am biased with my favorite team, i would give them an A in the middle of the season.
He doesn’t understand that players Jimmy’s and Lowry’s age are looking for financial stability for when they retire. If Miami didn’t pay Lowry and Jimmy that money then someone else was, Miami learned that the hard way by losing D Wade a few years back. Duncan hasn’t been horrible all season either, just inconsistent but when he’s hitting his shots he’s a top 3 shooter in the world and a shooter of Duncan’s caliber gets the big bucks. On top of that their future looks great with Bam and Herro and being a free agent hotspot making it easier to get a 3rd star in the future to pair along side with Bam and Herro. And then the front office have done nothing but good this season picking up role players and letting go of role players, on top of that the Heat are the 1 seed with the lineup of Lowry-Herro-Jimmy-PJ-Bam only playing 17 minutes all season
Hasn't Dunc been shooting 40% from 3 since December? In the last 23 games he's only had like 7 bad shooting games (8 if you think going 3/8 from 3 against Portland was bad). He's hasn't been that inconsistent.
The heat had a better off-season than the bulls if we’re being honest, bulls are pretenders in my book while the heat are legitimate contenders in the east.
Even though LOW is right about the Duncan Robinson contract he is still dissing the Heat by giving a B- when they are the 1ST SEED in the east. They should have an A- at the BARE MINIMUM
Lol you guys know suns are overpaying there players right same for the bulls yes bulls also and the bucks and nets and they all get a better grade then the heat smh
Confirmed LOW hates the Miami Heat, the only point he really had was the Duncan Robinson Contract. We didn’t overreact and we brought in Lowry, Tucker and Morris and as of today we are the #1 team in the East and we don’t even have Morris and Oladipo back… and don’t even get me started on how GOOD Caleb Martin is for being on the contract that he’s on. Rare miss LOW
I think you're being wayy too harsh on the heat. For starters Nunn hasn't played at all and Ariza is "virtually unplayable" according to you so calling them important lost pieces is rather hypocritical. Also they're not just top 4 in the east they're currently 1st and have a really good record against all other contending teams. They didn't overreact after an underperforming season, upgraded in multiple positions, pulled a couple more players out of nowhere like Straus and Calleb Martin and are in a position to be a top contender while also having a young team with a lot of future easily an A in my book. I understand there are some concerns with the Long term contracts of Lowry and Robinson combined with the Free Agency of Herro after next season but I don't consider neither of these contracts anywhere close to untradable. If the Heat decide to trade these 2 for a large contract that expires next season (big examples are Westbrook and Wall ) they could easily do it, hell the Lakers would probably give you picks assets and BJ to make the trade happen
People old enough to remember teams like 99 Rockets and 04 Lakers knew this Westbrook thing was doomed from the start. But even some of the newer fans are old enough to have seen 13 Lakers… sometimes the team just doesn’t make sense. You can’t go by names, you have to think about how it all fits together with both personalities and play style
Miami stays getting disrespected crazy asf 😂😂 B- as the 1st seed and the two main stars missed 10+ games is wild to me and the Max, Gabe, Yurt weren’t even mentioned 😭😭
The heat may have overpaid Duncan, but they put themselves in a position to win now this year and at least next year, what more could you want in a free agency? They got rid of all the dead weight and reinforced themselves with guys who fit the system better A- at least in my book.
Not to mention that half of the rotation guys they signed/converted to actual NBA contacts were from the G-League, except Caleb Martin who's still on a two-way contract. Talk about getting bang for your buck.
yeah that was my only argument with the vid when he said they didnt make a clear direction but its really easy to see they are contender if fully healthy with the new additions of a great 3 and d player in Pj a good vet pg in Lowry and with all the virus stuff going on alot of other players are stepping up and earning a good amount of minutes
Demar derozan to the bulls definitely an A man I laughed a article when they say one of the worse signing in free agency was demar derozan. I liked the bulls moves because they finally give zach lavine some help even though I thought he was going leave in the offseason maybe he stays maybe he dont but heres the thing the bulls can make some noise in the playoffs when everyone is healthy
@@josh8404a we aren’t even getting talked about how is that possible, we are the 1 seed with multiple injuries and beat all the teams in the east including the bucks bulls nets, we are underrated
The suns payed Chris Paul a 4 year contract because he'll at least have 2 dominant seasons left (counting this season) So they payed Chris Paul that much to help them now, about the same thing with the Kyle Lowry signing
Yeah knocking off points for signing CP3/Lowry and extending Jimmy didn't sit right with me. It was "win now" moves for both the Suns and Heat and we've recently seen that large contracts are still moveable so it's not like they have no way out. Not to mention that both teams still have players primed to take over in the future for when those guys decline.
@@wnc2004 I think heat will keep strus and Martin and Omer and try to improve those 3 guys I love Gabe but he probably getting traded same for kz and Duncan
Pelicans need to fire David Griffin and begin to look at possibly trading away Ingram or Zion just to see what they could get back for them. I love Zion and Ingram, but holy shit are the pelicans doing WORSE in the front office than the KINGS lately
Ingram and zion weren't a good fit and they barely did good moves during the off season. Trading lonzo and getting nothing in return also getting rid of their 10th pick in the draft
Inferring that Lonzo Ball wanted to go back to the pelicans and only thing stopping it from happen was proper pay is beyond DISHONEST. There’s nothing the trash pelicans could’ve done to keep Lonzo Ball period
I love these type of videos. LOW is probably one of the most insightful ball channels out there and this just shows a wide variety of knowledge and helps catch up on teams I don’t pay much attention to
He’s not very smart lol from a NBA standpoint. He said Luka and Trae would be “busts” giving them a low grade back in 2018. He’s made countless horrible analysis.
@@lukadoncic9085 you’re bringing up shi from 4 years ago☠️ 1. You’re a Luka fanboy ur opinion isn’t serious 2. I’m not saying he’s great, i’m saying he does a lot of research with the on-court play
Pelicans deserve a B- The draft compensation they lost they got back in another trade. Drafted two good two-way wings that fit wonderfully Let lonzo walk which wasnt the best of fits, but replaced him with as good of a 3 point shooter. (In terms of difficulty not percentage rn) Got rid of a big that was severely overpaid, and replaced with one that fits much better Pelican would be playoff team or knocking on door with the Zion we saw last year
Comparing Zo’s contract with Eric Bledsoe in the video isn’t saying anything lol everyone knows he’s washed, if he stuck around Zo would likely be the 2nd option this season without Zion which is very different from his 4th option role with a flatly more talented team around him
The fact you didn’t bump up the Suns grade smh. I disagree that CP3 isn’t playing like a 30 mil PG, he’s averaging a double double and playing mistake free on the best team in the league. That’s worth 30 mil.
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa, that's disrespectful to us got them disrespect to the Miami Heats, just like Milwaukee, Brooklyn and Chicago, instead you get them A or B+ I would rather you give them a B-, they were going through injuries and sickness and still they fight the battles Has any team in the Eastern Conference.. I swear bro you got some little hate on us
Bruh kcp hield and derozan(handling the ball most of the time between him and brown) would be way better than they have right now, caruso as 6th man or they should’ve went for Lowry and Hield
I’m not a lakers fan but with all do respect, I expected Kuzma to play better in Washington, especially since nobody is watching and it also proves my point that he is only good on a bad team🤷♂️.
If you seriously think Miami is a B- you dont know ball. Not even being a prisoner of the moment but they brought in guys who know what it takes to win a ring in PJ and Kyle, if youre argument is money its pointless because you pay for winners, and they are currently winning. They brought in Caleb Martin who has been a dog all year, and Duncan’s contract is still movable at only 18 million a year.. poor take. I agree with the rest id the video.
Yo when did you make this video because Rondo isn't on the Lakers anymore 😂🤣🤣 (posting this after hearing the Lakers part) if he talks about Rondo when he gets to the Cavs my fault, but still.
Lol the people that thought that Westbrook would make the Lakers a super team, must clearly never have even watched a minute of Westbrook playing basketball the man has a very limited BBall IQ, Westbrook is good at getting nice stats at inefficient rate
suns have the best record in the league and you don’t even acknowledge how great CP3 has been in the clutch. the suns identified the weakness of the backup center position. i know we can’t throw in mid season signings but the biyombo signing is OD as well. Suns and heat deserve A+ lmfao.
The Heat are FIRST IN THE EAST because of the moves they made this offseason. Lowry and tucker have been a perfect fits, they had to gove Jimmy that extension that will probably not look that bad in a couple of years, and very sneaky gave Strus and Vincent (who have been great this year) very cheap two year contracts. Duncan hasnt been great but hes heating up and thats what snipers command in the open market. Instead of just bullsh*tting, try to make a video with actual analysis and watch some damn games. This video is quite literally one of the worst ive seen on youtube. Im unsubscribing after this because im honestly shocked how stupid this was lol
I like Randle more than the average non-NY fan, don't get me wrong....but this season is just more proof that Tatum should've gotten the All NBA selection last season....just saying.
As much as I don’t like CP3s contract, he (right now) is worth that money. His impact is on the level of guys like Embiid, he just doesn’t have the off the chart stats or flashiness to back it up. Though the Suns wouldn’t be a contender without him, he is their most important player. Obviously, in the future he might now be worth the money since he is gonna be paid that when he is near 40 but right now he is 200% worth that money.
Heat have to get at least A- Kyle Lowry has been a massive positive for the team, big upgrade from what Dragic would of been. Robinson by has been terrible I agree but recently he has picked it up and has been playing great over the last week or 2. Tyler Herro and Jimmy Butler have both been amazing, despite Jimmy missing a few games. Then you got the fact that they haven’t even had Bam for 60% of the games and they are first in the East right now.
You horribly overrated Lakers. Miami should get at least B+. Lowry is not, Duncan has slump, but still they got contender team. CHI are clear winner of the offseason.
If the Lakers were able to stay healthy, they would be a top 4 team in the West this season. LeBron and AD are too good of a duo to have Westbrook being that down to Play/In level. Yes Westbrook has been struggling so far this season (like every other starts to a new team he has been on) but he will turn it around, he always does. Last season is the perfect example of that. And even then, Westbrook hasn’t even been that bad this season, like AD has been worse than him this season (and last season too might I add). The Lakers just need to keep LeBron and AD healthy and healthy at the same time. I remember looking at a page, LeBron and AD have both missed heaps of time but there has not been a single game where both of them were out of playing at the same time. It’s always one of them is injured. Pretty much the 2019 Warriors with Steph and KD.
I think you could have talk about the cavs maybe as an honorific mention, cuz at the beginning people thought they had make bad decisions. Lauri, rubio and allen (getting paid a 100M contract) weren't expected to boost this team the way they did, is not onky them Mobley is a prodigy of basketball and has a ceiling way too high and also garland has stepped up with sexton out. Definitely one of the best free agencies in my opinion and cavs close/long future are secured, this guys play hard and are legit on defense
Watch the Lakers win it all, I think they are built for the postseason more for the reg season; almost like the Cavs in '18: trash in the reg season but all those pieces that were traded would've been vital (Crowder, Wade, Frye etc)
CP3 is my MVP this season I disagree on his salary not being justified this season. He is the only superstar on that team and don't you dare bring up Devon Booker the only thing keeping him from being a roll player is shot volume and media hype. If any thing this season has proved that Chris Paul is underpaid. Now that doesn't mean the contract is a good one just that it's justified for this year.
I would have bumped up the heat to an A-, Duncan has been inconsistent yes, but Kyle has made a much bigger difference than most people thought he would and they are the 1st seed. I remember when I was playing pickup and two friends were talking about how the lakers are a super team, something I was never sold on, so I mentioned the heat, and I was met with rolled eyes and my guy telling me Kyle Lowry is old and gonna do terrible, well imo he's been terribly good
In the short term the knicks have had a mediocre season but it’s not like this was a team that was serious about competing for the finals this year. This was and still is a year about finding positives and negatives with the players on the roster. Now yes some of the contracts on the team can be detrimental, I don’t see them as “unmoveable” in the future apart from maybe Kemba or Julius. Regardless this team will have to be very smart with their moves going forward if they wish to compete in the near future.
You should change the title cuz ur not regrading the off-season moves ur grade how they have gon, cuz the knicks moves were great it’s just they havnt planned out like they thought it would
Wow still no balls to address the Warriors? Which was the worst take in the previous video this is related to. I know u hate to admit u were wrong Low but cmon now.
Can we talk about how Zion and his family are so demanding of the pelicans but he has done absolutely nothing for our franchise and has the worst eating habits
Miami is the #1 seed while only having Lowry, Butler, Herro, and Bam play 17 total games together. They are in/near the top 5 for both Offense/Defense rating. Bam has only played 22/47 games. Jimmy has only played 29/47 games. It’s comical how you have Miami at a B- rating purely based off of contract numbers when they’ve beaten Suns, Nets, Bucks, Grizzlies, and Bulls all by double digits. Like the contracts or not, Miami should be at LEAST A-. This is heavily biased.

Got rid of a big that was severely overpaid, and replaced with one that fits much better
Pelican would be playoff team or knocking on door with the Zion we saw last year
Comparing Zo’s contract with Eric Bledsoe in the video isn’t saying anything lol everyone knows he’s washed, if he stuck around Zo would likely be the 2nd option this season without Zion which is very different from his 4th option role with a flatly more talented team around him
@@nineteenct what bro
Caruso a hustler and I respect that
The fact you didn’t bump up the Suns grade smh. I disagree that CP3 isn’t playing like a 30 mil PG, he’s averaging a double double and playing mistake free on the best team in the league. That’s worth 30 mil.
exactly dude is a good basketball channel but is he forgetting without cp3 the suns were a lottery team and he sayin he doesn't deserve 30 mil?????
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa, that's disrespectful to us got them disrespect to the Miami Heats, just like Milwaukee, Brooklyn and Chicago, instead you get them A or B+ I would rather you give them a B-, they were going through injuries and sickness and still they fight the battles Has any team in the Eastern Conference.. I swear bro you got some little hate on us
Shut up they are a first round exit. Wait till play off time
@@josh8404a that goes for you shut the Hell up, your teams are going to make it to the NBA finals, so you just wait about your damn team
@@josh8404a and just because we're in first it doesn't matter, cuz things are going to be a whole level Indus league so you just wait
@@kennyallen6286 your reply makes no sense but heat still gonna lose in the first round. Clown
Bruh kcp hield and derozan(handling the ball most of the time between him and brown) would be way better than they have right now, caruso as 6th man or they should’ve went for Lowry and Hield
Sorry Low but miami a B is crazy at least a A
I’m not a lakers fan but with all do respect, I expected Kuzma to play better in Washington, especially since nobody is watching and it also proves my point that he is only good on a bad team🤷♂️.
SWISHOUT did it first 😉
Low started and popularized this idea😉
@@hlopez990 he does trade deadline videos
Giving Miami a B- while they’re currently the 1st seed is actually disrespectful.
Wait till playoffs they deserve a C+
@@josh8404a Ok buddy
I think we were the 2nd seed when he recorded this. Still feels like a low pretty low grade though.
Man gave the Lakers an A this summer?... For real?
If you asked me before the season I would have given them an F absolutely 0 hesitation.
The heat are actually the number 1 seed
He literally said in the bulls segment the bulls were the one seed this was made a while ago
F is for formally trade westbrook for someone who can help us in any sort of way
You didnt mention that lakers chose THT between him and caruso, so that is another gigantic miss on their part
Feel sorry for low as a “Laker fan” but a at least Lebrun doing great
Keep in mind the bulls have been playing without their best interior defender in Patrick Williams
I know that westbrook A is clickbait😂
Phoenix gets a B+ for not keeping Jalen Smith
They did keep Jalen Smith.......
@@MegaKhalid121 he's a ufa next year because we declined his option...............
@@hitmanx2175 he’s def leaving too…
@@cruzzz5738 unfortunately......
If you seriously think Miami is a B- you dont know ball. Not even being a prisoner of the moment but they brought in guys who know what it takes to win a ring in PJ and Kyle, if youre argument is money its pointless because you pay for winners, and they are currently winning. They brought in Caleb Martin who has been a dog all year, and Duncan’s contract is still movable at only 18 million a year.. poor take. I agree with the rest id the video.
CP3 isnt a championship winner^
At first the Lakers looked like the best with all of trades that were made but it looks like the Lakers “Los” the most out of all of this
Russ trade was bad to begin with.
When in the hell was the Westbrook move an A lmaooooo
YOU SAID JOSH GIDDEY WAS A BAD PICK
Yo when did you make this video because Rondo isn't on the Lakers anymore 😂🤣🤣 (posting this after hearing the Lakers part) if he talks about Rondo when he gets to the Cavs my fault, but still.
First baby
Lol the people that thought that Westbrook would make the Lakers a super team, must clearly never have even watched a minute of Westbrook playing basketball
the man has a very limited BBall IQ, Westbrook is good at getting nice stats at inefficient rate
suns have the best record in the league and you don’t even acknowledge how great CP3 has been in the clutch. the suns identified the weakness of the backup center position. i know we can’t throw in mid season signings but the biyombo signing is OD as well. Suns and heat deserve A+ lmfao.
b- for a 1 seed whose been playing through a crazy amount of injuries? first and last time on this channel 😭🤦🏾♂️
i wish he couldve talked about the grizzlies
The Heat are FIRST IN THE EAST because of the moves they made this offseason. Lowry and tucker have been a perfect fits, they had to gove Jimmy that extension that will probably not look that bad in a couple of years, and very sneaky gave Strus and Vincent (who have been great this year) very cheap two year contracts. Duncan hasnt been great but hes heating up and thats what snipers command in the open market. Instead of just bullsh*tting, try to make a video with actual analysis and watch some damn games. This video is quite literally one of the worst ive seen on youtube. Im unsubscribing after this because im honestly shocked how stupid this was lol
I like Randle more than the average non-NY fan, don't get me wrong....but this season is just more proof that Tatum should've gotten the All NBA selection last season....just saying.
As much as I don’t like CP3s contract, he (right now) is worth that money. His impact is on the level of guys like Embiid, he just doesn’t have the off the chart stats or flashiness to back it up.
Though the Suns wouldn’t be a contender without him, he is their most important player.
Obviously, in the future he might now be worth the money since he is gonna be paid that when he is near 40 but right now he is 200% worth that money.
Heat have to get at least A-
Kyle Lowry has been a massive positive for the team, big upgrade from what Dragic would of been.
Robinson by has been terrible I agree but recently he has picked it up and has been playing great over the last week or 2.
Tyler Herro and Jimmy Butler have both been amazing, despite Jimmy missing a few games.
Then you got the fact that they haven’t even had Bam for 60% of the games and they are first in the East right now.
You horribly overrated Lakers. Miami should get at least B+. Lowry is not, Duncan has slump, but still they got contender team. CHI are clear winner of the offseason.
If the Lakers were able to stay healthy, they would be a top 4 team in the West this season.
LeBron and AD are too good of a duo to have Westbrook being that down to Play/In level.
Yes Westbrook has been struggling so far this season (like every other starts to a new team he has been on) but he will turn it around, he always does. Last season is the perfect example of that.
And even then, Westbrook hasn’t even been that bad this season, like AD has been worse than him this season (and last season too might I add).
The Lakers just need to keep LeBron and AD healthy and healthy at the same time.
I remember looking at a page, LeBron and AD have both missed heaps of time but there has not been a single game where both of them were out of playing at the same time. It’s always one of them is injured. Pretty much the 2019 Warriors with Steph and KD.
I think you could have talk about the cavs maybe as an honorific mention, cuz at the beginning people thought they had make bad decisions. Lauri, rubio and allen (getting paid a 100M contract) weren't expected to boost this team the way they did, is not onky them Mobley is a prodigy of basketball and has a ceiling way too high and also garland has stepped up with sexton out. Definitely one of the best free agencies in my opinion and cavs close/long future are secured, this guys play hard and are legit on defense
Watch the Lakers win it all, I think they are built for the postseason more for the reg season; almost like the Cavs in '18: trash in the reg season but all those pieces that were traded would've been vital (Crowder, Wade, Frye etc)
CP3 is my MVP this season I disagree on his salary not being justified this season. He is the only superstar on that team and don't you dare bring up Devon Booker the only thing keeping him from being a roll player is shot volume and media hype. If any thing this season has proved that Chris Paul is underpaid. Now that doesn't mean the contract is a good one just that it's justified for this year.
I would have bumped up the heat to an A-, Duncan has been inconsistent yes, but Kyle has made a much bigger difference than most people thought he would and they are the 1st seed. I remember when I was playing pickup and two friends were talking about how the lakers are a super team, something I was never sold on, so I mentioned the heat, and I was met with rolled eyes and my guy telling me Kyle Lowry is old and gonna do terrible, well imo he's been terribly good
LMFAOO LOW I already know this finna be comedy
B- for being the first seed while the 3top players only played 14 games together ..... Low you tripping
In the short term the knicks have had a mediocre season but it’s not like this was a team that was serious about competing for the finals this year. This was and still is a year about finding positives and negatives with the players on the roster. Now yes some of the contracts on the team can be detrimental, I don’t see them as “unmoveable” in the future apart from maybe Kemba or Julius. Regardless this team will have to be very smart with their moves going forward if they wish to compete in the near future.
You should change the title cuz ur not regrading the off-season moves ur grade how they have gon, cuz the knicks moves were great it’s just they havnt planned out like they thought it would
How is it that Javelle McGee keep finding his easy on contending teams??? This is crazy
Austin Reeves went to the Lebron James school of Harden flops. Plus I think the refs give him the benefit of the doubt because he looks frail too.
Top record in the East despite numerous injuries/Covid. B- lol sounds about right
As a Lakers fan, I gotta give a shoutout to Stanley Johnson. Great defensive player.
Lakers need to make a trade anytime soon. They won't be winning with that roster and that is a fact.
This guy obviously don’t watch Miami games lol. If he says they are a B-
wtf youre talking about cp3. the most productive player so far
Miami first in the east with all the injuries and they stay at a b- because of contracts?
Wow still no balls to address the Warriors? Which was the worst take in the previous video this is related to. I know u hate to admit u were wrong Low but cmon now.
Can we talk about how Zion and his family are so demanding of the pelicans but he has done absolutely nothing for our franchise and has the worst eating habits
Chris Paul been balling, don’t know what games you been watching the old man still got it.
the heat didn't make it obvious that they were trying to win now? you think we signed lowry and PJ tucker for the future?
I can't believe how wrong you were in the beginning of the season. Who would give lakers an A?
This man disrespecting cp3. Dude is the best player on the best team right now.
Not sure what Knick fans were smoking thinking randle was a legitimate 1st option
You went too far going at Westbrook brother, you were disrespectful
Cmon Low, Heat is an A+ for crying out loud we are the 1st seed in the damn conference
We all know what demar can do in the regular season as a spurs fan wait to you see demar in the playoffs he is a way different player
I can’t stand Kyle Lowry but he would be a better fit then Westbrook
don't you worry about them lakers. it's just the preseason bruh
You should’ve gave the Lakers a D- to start as well. The moves never made any sense.
Crazy that ppl still say 2020 referring to stuff like this 😂
We couldve had demar I keep crying about that 😢
No way Miami is still a B- rn 🤣🤣
Dude is super downplaying the heat
Miami is the #1 seed while only having Lowry, Butler, Herro, and Bam play 17 total games together. They are in/near the top 5 for both Offense/Defense rating. Bam has only played 22/47 games. Jimmy has only played 29/47 games. It’s comical how you have Miami at a B- rating purely based off of contract numbers when they’ve beaten Suns, Nets, Bucks, Grizzlies, and Bulls all by double digits. Like the contracts or not, Miami should be at LEAST A-. This is heavily biased.
They’ve played 17 minutes actually not games.
CRAZY
Damn y’all fast
Demar will be dispoining in the playoffs
I feel like u started making this video 3 weeks ago
