So almost every team has played their first game except for Philly and Milwaukee who will play later today. Let’s have this post be a fun artifact we can look back on at the end of the season and see what we were right about and what we were wrong about. here are my overreactions from the limited basketball i’ve watched and yes I am going out of my way to overreact:
- Russell Westbrook is once again That guy
- Anthony Davis can NEVER be the best player on the Lakers
- Brandon Miller > Scoot and Wemby
- Zion Williamson MVP year?
- Ben Simmons career is over
- The Lakers are screwed without Dennis Schroeder
- Cade Cunningham and the Pistons are legit? All-star debut?
- Trae Young can’t shoot anymore
Brandon Miller and Mark Williams really did both look absolutely awesome. Brandon Miller has a really high floor. He can really shoot it, he can legitimately defend, and he is a solid ball mover and has some passing chops. He’s gonna be a solid role player early on. I’m pretty high on the season he’s gonna have this year.
Pistons lost to the defending east champions by 1 point? Well they are surely to win their next 5 games
