I predict that lebron finally gets to chapter 2 of his malcom x book

[@Venom272X]

no shot

[@ezraprzytyk]

​@@Venom272Xits the boldest prediction ive ever made

[@coopervalentine21]

Clearly you didn’t read the second half of the title

😂😂

[@d3va383]

Unrealistic, at most he’s getting to the 2nd page

[@buusa]

the fact that lebron kd and steph are so far into their careers and top 15 players in the league is something i feel like we take for granted, really hope the next generation can match that

[@chauvintookaknee4blm268]

There's no interesting freak like LBJ on the up tho. We got goats like joker and Luka but where's the athletic anomaly. Mind you I prefer skilled guys. Hope to see a lil more Russ LBJ kd archetypes

[@hmmmmmm6901]

Newer players just not as skilled fr like a prime Lebron with similar usage rate averaged 26ppg cause the players could bang with him back then(pause) you put that Lebron in todays games he’s averaging 35 easy cause he mastered his skill of going to the rim rn who gone stop that? Jaren Jackson?

[@leovillarreal3972]

Top 15, in my opinion they are both top 5

[@ZayAgka]

@@chauvintookaknee4blm268I really think Zion could have been that next generational “Lebron” type player. I still have high hopes for him, but the injuries have truly tarnished his career and possibly his future

[@rohangupte3545]

Not too much of a bold prediction but this is the last year of the Joel Embiid era in Philly . He requests a trade after this season

[@navonmyhand7999]

I think so too. Gonna ask for Golden State too I think. Maybe Cleveland, New York or Memphis though.

[@HailThyself666]

He will be really hard to move though, the team he lands in will be left depleted of assets

[@HailThyself666]

Either that or the sixers get fleeced

[@inmune2004]

I disagree on Chet winning ROTY, they are going to give that to Victor just because of the hype, don’t get me wrong, he is going to be good, but I think this is like a LeBron, Carmelo scenario in 2004

[@SuckOnYakuzA]

Thinking he will win because of hype is delusional. He will win because he will have better numbers because he will have more touches. Their teams are not in the same timeframe.

[@SWISHOUT]

I just think OKC is gonna win a lot so that should factor. But damn your point is great, didn’t even think about that

[@thelawyer95]

Victor will probably load manage a lot. He won't even get to play the necessary amount of games to be eligible.

[@e17395]

thats exactly what i think will happen. chet might have to play twice as good in order to win

[@justnahayo8490]

That made 0 sense lmao

[@jamescordero9]

I predict Jokic will get his 3rd MVP he was robbed for

[@HailThyself666]

Probably, but Giannis won't make it easy for him, the Bucks will have a really good record and his stats will look great, specially efficiency wise

[@brome42]

yeah its either jokic or giannis aint nobody coming close yet

[@jamescordero9]

@@brome42 I don't like Giannis too much but I would've prefer for him to win the MVP last time than Embiid. This is coming from a sixers fan. I live in Philly but Embiid did not earn that. He cried about too much.

[@mareklame8589]

i don't know US journalists are biased. They would probably look for homegrown MVP like Tatum.

[@theindigokid9632]

It's not Jokic fault he got robbed honestly Giannis was robbed first when Jokic got his first mvp and the reason they gave was "voter fatigue" and "he can't have 3" so it only stands that Joker shouldn't have 3 as well

[@calvin7978]

I’d love to see Fox bloom and take a huge step this year. He’s improving each year

[@puta1082]

I just want to recap last season. The Nuggets coasted the last quarter of the season and still took 1st place in the West. The went 16 and 4 to win it all. Lost no Starters in the offseason. All starters are 30 or under. The Nuggets are going to walk to another ring. The complete lack of respect for team play is amazing. Edit Also how many Rookies had an actual impact in the playoffs? One did and he will be back and even better this year. Christian Braun.

[@essameewane6519]

The nuggets has lost key players during the offseason but let wait and see

[@vvslaysnoobs9595]

No way you think they’ll walk their way to another championship, they could very well win, but if they do it will be very hard, I think the bucks will win the championship personally because I’m a bucks fan

[@puta1082]

@@vvslaysnoobs9595 I with my obvious bias recognize your obvious bias. I think Dame is a great player and if not for the Nuggets I would root for him.

[@Tain950]

If Zion gets an early injury again he’ll officially be considered a Bust.

I hope ad stay healthy and win dpi he clearly been the best defender in the since 2020 and showing it in the outplaying draymond and jjj dpoy candadits in the playoff

I feel like the suns will be incredibly underwhelming

[@MarClipz]

They got the best offense in the world probably history but they defense terrible whole starting 5 plays 0 Defense

[@rohangupte3545]

They have the offense to win a lot of regular season games but I think there at best a second round exit

[@starvvoy]

@@MarClipztheir offense is not even half as good as prime GSW’s offense with pre injury prime KD, prime pre injury Klay and prime unanimous mvp steph curry. it’s insulting to even insinuate the suns are anywhere close

Even if James Harden does force his way to the Clippers, they won't win a championship even if Kawhi plays a majority of the games since we all know what Harden's playoff history is now.

[@navonmyhand7999]

Feels like the Clippers are stuck in a limbo repeating the same season over and over

[@hmmmmmm6901]

He got two games on the Celtics by himself last year… Kawhi is literally the best player in the world when he plays they definitely could win if they get a PF that grabs boards

Yeah Playoff Westbrook + Playoff Harden + Playoff P? That’s Kawhi’s nightmare.

[@aryanparikh6714]

We need a award prediction vid or like players with the most pressure

[@enzodapan5016]

Kings can be the new Warriors if they will continue to improve. They even have the same style of playing where they nearly beat them last Playoffs. The championship is still a question yet I have high hopes for this team.

[@tyhamell5425]

well mike brown(kings) uses gsw system and since he was gsw assistant coach he knew the team plays and weaknesses

[@sadoubarry7150]

Maybe offensively but the Warriors had draymond who was always a top 3 defender and klay who was a top 5 perimeter defender and an overall top 5 defense every year. Kings dont have that.

[@gonzalo4658]

Yup maybe not warriors but their offense is great enough that they will beat enough teams to reach top 3. Like OKC with durant and westbrook. They win in clutch time, or when they lead by the 3rd quarter, etc

[@cameronmilhouse740]

@@sadoubarry7150 they not no more klay is not the same and draymond is still draymond they need to develop something else on that team bc they can’t contend with bigger teams in the west if they got no size.

[@user-md8ir6hh1j]

my guy the is type to get his analysis from mainstream media, instead of actually watching games

[@themyyth5419]

One seed is questionable (because of health) but I agree the Lakers disrespect is crazy. People expect them to barely win 45+ games when they won 43 last year with a 13 seed level team for half the year and Lebron injured for like two months after that. Unless someone gets a season ending injury 50 wins is probably the minimum.

[@SayjbeeMOB21]

Bro said Zion gon be, “Hungry”… we definitely know big dawg is capable in that regard 🤣💀

[@kennethxu1789]

On the bucks defense: Yeah, it’ll be alright. But the cavs comparison is actually a negative in my opinion. The cavs lost in the first round for a readon.

[@greco3751]

Yeah, they got destroyed in the perimeter which negated what Swish said, Bucks got destroyed on the perimeter by the heat and boston.

[@panotrading]

@@greco3751that was cuz of their defensive playing style not really the players. I think with the new coach they will work better for dames lack of defense

[@sarc4sm68]

OKC will surprise us this year as long as Chet is healthy, they're definitely good. They even have a greater chemistry and balance roster than the pels.

[@David-nd7rp]

Honestly, my bold prediction is that when Ja comes back, the Grizzlies are going to be a great team and possibly finish 3rd like they did last year. With D Rose's leadership, I honestly believe that Ja prolly won't miss that many more games after he comes back from his suspension. And overall, this Grizzlies team is still looking hella scary.

[@timmytheinventor4746]

I somewhat agree with this, I have them finishing 5th.

[@rohangupte3545]

They will probably finish 4th or 5th the West is much more healthier this year

[@chauvintookaknee4blm268]

As a rose guy stop. When he ever been a leader bro, it's smart and Adams imo

[@navonmyhand7999]

[@a2k.prod.]

Love the D Fox take. He has the potential to be better than Ja. Maybe not now but in 3 years he can be on a SGA/Luka level. (My Nuggets are going Back 2 Back btw 🏆)

[@rb-xr6zp]

“potential” he’s already arguably better and the gap between him and shai isn’t that far off imo

[@rabeechowdhury]

​@@rb-xr6zpnot just yet. We need to see more. This is turning out like the jaylen brown vs pg argument

[@BwGamekilla14]

Knicks will have a top-3 seed in the East & Jalen Brunson will be all-NBA 🏀

you made me a Kings fan! theyre going to be so fun to watch

[@Jaykerz]

I feel like people forgot about Chet until this year

[@garynicolas]

This is gonna aged well. I will visit you at the end of the season.

[@maartenvz]

Those takes are pretty safe besides the Fox one. Bold would be to predict that this season the young teams take over: Memphis plays okc in the wcf and in the east its Cleveland against Atlanta

[@TheFlurre]

I predict Wemby playes 60games or less, dont think he has the strength to play more in the NBA yet. Also for your takes, i dont think Zion plays 50 games and dont think the Suns 40/50/90 will hit, the others are all more likely imo.

[@tylerr6618]

Hopefully my Knicks Can get A 4th or 5th seed Again this year and make the playoffs

[@clampgod4900]

I said this before but I think the Kings with their GSW style sistem will be top 3-4 seed this season. They also signed one of the best offball players and shooter in the world the euroleague MVP Sasha Vezenkov and if they use him they gonna be a problem.

[@strongmoore5007]

Malcolm Brogdon randomly had a 50-40-90 😱

[@OrnitorrincoSlayer]

W list

[@Aramac12]

To add on the lakers being 1st seed, I think it’s gonna be cause AD plays 65+ games and wins DPOY that’s another bold prediction

[@blablablaa14]

OKC are really interesting but its getting to a point where you have to question is Giddy+SGA+Chet enough for a title, or do you need an upgrade over Giddy to win a title. Not for this year but long term if Giddy isn't pushing into that top 30 NBA player it will be tough to win a title. He basically has to be equal value to Jamal Murray which implies he needs to be a top 5 PG probably

[@Wrestle_Kingdom]

How does Giddey need to get to jamal Murray level when jamal Murray benefits from playing with jokic Also giddey can easily become the thrid or fourth option the team with jdub and chet being scoring threat plus giddey plays the 2 Also okc are not near contention or not okc are the Celtics or grizzles they just made the play in give it time

[@Keegan.999]

I predict DG the PG wins MVP averaging 42 and 17 while leading the Cavs to a 77-5 record (I’m def not biased)

[@av8erznation635]

In before I watch.. Lemme see what Swish on.. I know its a banger Edit: Lakers is bold.. Top 4 tho Okc is for sure going playoffs Bucks.. Its a solid take.. Zion HAS to play 50 games.. It's been long enough Fox.. Naaah Swish.. I like Fox but I think that roster is riding a high and it may be too much to sustain. Hope you're right tho.. I like the competitiveness of them guys.. 50-40-90 is possible but Phoenix has shown they gone mess it up somehow when they should have it locked Good list my guy

[@yuhhtempo]

Damn I said we (Los Angeles Lakers) would be a Top 4 Seed & I get called a delusional fan every day but I am hoping you’re right. Was thinking about the longevity & versatility of the team & this CAN be a team, in fact a dynasty which would make them better than the 2020 Lakers, but maybe that’s just me🤷🏾‍♂️

[@kstiemsma]

you guys will easily be a top 4 team in the west but you're in the same boat as golden state where you're just coasting through the regular season. its hard to imagine AD playing more than 50 games and lebron isnt getting any younger. theres a lot of teams in the west better equipped to win during the regular season like phoenix, minny, sacramento

[@jahblemanuel7733]

As a Bucks fan, we need to prove first we can beat Miami and Boston in a 7 game series. The past 2 years we’ve always been respected as favorites to win the championship and we havent made the conference finals in those 2 years.

[@jamaaldavis6243]

My bold prediction: Webanyama will make the all-star team in his rookie campaign. Much like Tim Duncan did.

[@KingFR23]

no disrespect to the Suns or anything but 90-50-40 prtgs or any reg. season stat just aint it for them. Like that aint supposed to be their focus at all, they're supposed to think of how KD will return to being that 1st option or whos gonna be the alpha to lead that team. I agree with the Lakers and Bucks takes fo sho

[@TheEliWay]

I predict that the Orlando Magic, Utah Jazz and the Indiana Pacers make it to the play in tournament. And also the Knicks will go all the way to the ECF. And the three MVP contenders outside of Joker, Embiid, Giannis: SGA, Tatum and ANT

[@manlikezi]

I predict that Victor Wembanyama will be a rookie all star

[@DreSocial888]

Nice

[@StaylowDame]

That Lakers take was VERY nasty looking back on this….

[@MusicLover-my6fo]

My prediction is that the Grizzlies are going to be scary when Ja comes back, they won't win a championship this year, but the Marcus Smart signing is going to prove to be problematic for other teams going forward.

[@hl3508]

My. thoughts exactly Lakers gave up 2 games to them and they still hung in there with an injured Ja and other injured starters. Plus their bench stepped up big (idk his name but the guy was draining 3s like crazy). The only issue i can see is Ja. If he keeps flying to the basket no shot hes gonna make it to playoffs healthy

[@TheHonestTeaPodcast]

My prediction is that the miami heat wins the nba championship

[@lorenzojohnson5073]

I keep forgetting you're a Lakers fan and then I remember

[@clickbait3753]

with the health issues the lakers have had, their goal should definitly just be to lock up a top 6 seed and be at full force for the playoffs. One seed isnt really that realisitc.

[@i_l96]

Al Horford and Jrue Holiday will be the answer for the Bucks' new lineup

[@fullcourtjunky9530]

Anthony Davis plays 60 plus games this year (my bold prediction)

[@BretSilverberg]

Why is everyone so high on the Lakers this year? Lebron and AD are one year older and they have to go through probably Phoenix, definitely Denver and maybe GSW again. I don't see it.

[@ThecrazyGaer]

It's insane how when grayson allen was in Milwuakee everyone was saying he is a bum and now all of a sudden people are saying he is a good ass defender and that we will miss him LOL

[@jitterbug5630]

I can't see the Lakers being the 1 seed because of the age of lebron and AD, I think they'll be 3rd to 5th, but can very well make a deep run cause of their skill and playoff experience

[@loseyourself6881]

Hm surprised u didnt mention anything about the warriors

[@littlesmallworld123]

My bold prediction is the Maverick's duo of Doncic and Kyrie actually figure it out and make a deep playoff run, both buying into the defensive side more as well.

[@FinGunn]

A team with 48 wins in the west will miss the playoffs. The west is so heavily stacked this would not surprise me in the slightest

My bold prediction ben Simmons will actually play games this year my reasoning is because dude has 2 years on his contract and its obvious he wants to play ball he just doesnt want to change to much so we might see ben change things up these next two years and once he has that new contract we'll see the old ben again
