Cousins signs with Golden State.  Not a bad starting lineup 

Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and Cousins.

What the fuck!

EDIT: Forgot he tore his achilies last year. Still, he should be back some time in spring. If he's 70% of what he was last year the Warriors will be unbeatable.

Toronto looks pretty good.  Still early obviously, but a lot to be hopeful about.

No love for the Trailblazers, eh?

They looked damn good.

Still have hope for the Celtics of course, but the Raptors will be a formidable opponent.

Is there a more recent NBA thread?  I tried looking.

I really don't watch or follow the NBA, but that Kawhi Leonard's four-bounce buzzer beater in game 7 was something you'd call hokey and unrealistic if you saw it in a movie.  Amazing.

[jimmy olsen]

Great play, but i don't think anyone in the East is stopping the Bucks this year.

[crazy canuck]

Yeah, the Bucks are going to give the Warriors a good series.  I look forward to watching that.

I'm bumping this thread to try and keep NBA talk out of the NHL thread, but this prediction has not aged well.

Warriors are just too injured this year.

Justice. They have been struck down for their sins.

If karma plays a role in the outcome the Toronto fans did some serious damage with their disgraceful behaviour when KD was injured.

You are overstating it a little there. Basketball players, especially KD, are such cry babies.

Cry baby? He just suffered a career threatening injury and you call him a cry baby?

No, he was a cry baby before the injury, for years now. Altho to be fair to KD, he took the first moments of the injury will perfect stoicism.
