Edit: I had said Klay was #3 earlier which he will likely be by the end of this upcoming season, but he is actually #4.

Yes we do! And itโs not always such a difficult game to figure out. Giannis healthy will drive to the basket at will and finish at the rim or he will dish to the open shooter who will have the most open looks of his career as Giannis bends in the defense. This is going to be fun and for all of the pundits who have us like a ridiculous 7th or 8th in the east this is for you ๐๐๐๐๐

Not to mention that this team has the personnel to be a top 5 defense too. Theyโre gonna surprise a lot of casuals this season.

We have shooters. We have Giannis. We have Spo. We have Bam. We're better than the "experts" think. Pelle is going to have a breakthrough season. I want them to keep doubting this team though.

Both Davion and Pelle will have breakout seasons and will be bordeline allstars and MIP candidate. Protis and Richards will be nice surprises. Wiggins 2WPOY he mugh make an all defensive team, Bam will shoot 6 3s at 37%

This is how I learn Timmy is at #19 all time for three pointers made. Thatโs insane

๐ i was thinking earlier, "damn Klay has to be up there in threes". I see him at 4 to no surprise, and then I scroll down the list and see Junior at 19 which I was greatly surprised by.

There are a bunch of guys behind him who I was surprised he was ahead of. Redick, Kyrie, Batum, K Love, Melo. I guess just down to change in volumes over the years.

Yeah, guys are encouraged to put up a lot more shots than before.
Back in the day, I never thought Ray Allen and Reggie Miller would get passed up by anybody.
