I Graded Every NBA Team’s Season So Far

[@goodvibesgolf3294]

To be fair, as a Wizards fan they are doing exactly as I expected... A+

[@dncsix877]

I agree that they’re doing what they’re supposed to do but I can’t see myself giving an A+ to a 3-20 team

[@Surreal_Bread]

doing as expected is a c+, a+ would be exeeding expectations and doing great. Which the wizards are far from doing

[@goodvibesgolf3294]

​@@Surreal_Bread Oh I know. Just wanted to make a little fun. Although I expected them to be bad and they are definitely exceeding that expectation by being exceedingly bad 😂

[@goodvibesgolf3294]

@@dncsix877 Yeah I get it, but there are definite upsides. Players like B-Cool, Bub, and Kyshawn are showing that they can be big pieces of the puzzle. I would've hated to say it before, but Poole is also finding his footing again and playing like he was on the Warriors. Sarr needs some time, but I think he'll pick it up eventually. Just wish Johnny would've been what he was projected to be.

[@ricter]

exactly.. how is he saying this is not based on their record then proceeds to rank every team based on their record? Jazz too.. theyre not trying to be good right now yet they get F?

[@jman652000]

Aint no way the sixers and raptors are in the same tier. Raptors are trying to tank while sixers are trying to win and are still in the same bracket. Sixers have to be F given the expectations

[@MHO999999]

Sixers are the biggest disappointment this season, by far. The Lakers are probably the next biggest let down.

[@urbaindelva7869]

​@@MHO999999The Lakers started the season strongly, at least. The Sixers have not been fully healthy.

[@CrocodilePilot]

Raps deserve higher, they're pulling off a tanking masterclass rn. You said it yourself, they're playing winning basketball but still losing games, it's incredible.

[@urbaindelva7869]

If you're playing winning basketball but still losing games, is it really winning basketball? Are they simply not closing out games, or are they playing well for the first 3 quarters then deliberately throwing the games?

[@nabeelkhan1699]

raptors might be up there with most ethical tank ever, but I still wish there was some other solution.

Ethical tank? You mean that they're trying to lose but not making it obvious? How does that work?

[@brown3261]

@@urbaindelva7869basically they keep the game super close and competitive up until the 4th quarter. then with game on the line, they use a timeout, then come out and just chuck the ball. so I guess for 3.5 quarters you got exciting real ball and then watch them throw it away in the last 5 minutes. gun to your head and you had to tank, this is prolly the way.

[@NvFranco]

@@urbaindelva7869 Pretty much exactly what it means lol. They're competitive in almost every game and it's entertaining but they still lose, but on top of that you can see their core players making improvements in their games.

[@RedTopSports]

D tier for the Raptors? Young guys taking huge leaps, staying close in every game but losing which helps the rebuild. Terrible take dude.

[@MedicinalBlood]

Pretty sure the raptors have won more quarters in general but lose in the 4th.

[@firestar9650]

I wouldn't say it's that bad of a take because no one REALLY knew what we wanted to do at the beginning of the season, whether it was compete for a play-in or tank, and only because of injuries we seem to be tanking. We are the worst team in the east (wizards don't count) so a D tier seems fitting because its kinda shown that Barnes might not be that guy due to frequency of injury. (Even if those injuries are not self-inflicted)

[@firestar9650]

Yeah Kenny says that it's really because our "big 3" haven't played together at all. We have no clue how good we can be because of this. So a D tier is fitting.

one of his points being the guys we payed haven’t played is crazy especially when the bulls are paying lonzo

[@Rehnaldo]

he’s also a bulls fan

[@Goxilla]

Orlando's real star is coach Mosley. He implemented a defensive culture which isn't easy to do with such a young team. The players seem to like playing for him and their flow on offense is fun to watch. He should be considered as coach of the year if the Magic can land a top 3 spot at the end

[@NakoTheNacho]

Considering the raptors goals they deserve a B, considering the team they're building they had a pretty good draft. Would be a playoff team if healthy

[@levyyy9478]

Scottie was an all star when he was playing. we are very injured and we lose but we fight.

After the hard times of a rebuild and lawless basketball, its so amazing to be playing winning basketball again, and this time around a more together team, rather than hardens hero ball (big harden fan). Very refreshing and beautiful to see the guys really gel and buy in to th e system udoka has set in. A grade so far even with the offensive woes

I'm happy with where the Raps are at right now; they just have to stay healthy! Gradey, Jakob, and RJ have made crazy jumps this year, and I think if they get a better coach, they could be a playoff team within the next two seasons. They should be in the B-Tier.

[@borkishu2984]

raptors in D tier is crazy, they look competitive in their games despite the injuries and are pulling off a tanking masterclass, if you're basing this on expectations for them at the beginning of the year, wins wise theyre about exactly where most fans thought theyd be, and their performances on the court are far better than most thought theyd be.

[@Eggmancan]

Way too harsh on some of these young teams. Piston, Blazers, Raptors, Spurs -- none of these teams were trying to be good this year and all of them have been discovering small things that work and that they can build on in the future, which is a big win for them.

[@austinbender8333]

[@harrislaurent429]

Hawks get an A imo, have a legit shot at top 6 in the East and they have kings and lakers picks (kings is top12 protected) and they got valuable trade pieces if they choose to go that direction

I feel like Warriors should still be a C+. We have some positives like Kuminga and Wiggins improving and returnign to good form. As for the negative it's mainly been Melton, Podz, Steve Kerr and Lindy Waters. Warriors are still the 5th seed and Steph still looks good, we just need to figure out rotations.

[@peterranney9488]

As a Wizards fan, I give them a solid C this year so far. They are playing a roster that can't legally drink, so of course they are losing. The thing that I like is that Sarr looks like an NBA player and Bilal is progressing well, and the rest of the season is just simming until the trade deadline and the draft. My grade could drop very quickly if they can't find any buyers at the deadline, but they have pieces that other teams should want and they can take on contracts in return for compensation.

[@TheMissiIe]

Couldn't be happier as a Hawks fan. Sure our wins aren't crwzy high, but we finally have a defence

no disrespect bur the magic better the the mavs come on man. am a mavs fan , and to me A+ is champs only becz they proven that. mavs ,cavs, rockets and thunders this 4teams are either A or A- depending on the stretch grizlys are A- or B+ depending on health can be even A. but A+ only for champs . my opinion. note : some players are simply a Diff BEAST come playoff time even if their team loses u can still see their imprint on the game. that s why not anyone can get to that pt not alone the finales .

[@Proj3ctX1]

Dallas needs to move up considering the 3 of their starters have missed significant time and they still have a good record. Memphis needs to move to a B+ or A- it just doesn't feel right having them in A+.Other than that, the list is solid.

[@pycobob31]

Celtics are an a+ for me they show shown they got the championship confidence

[@urbaindelva7869]

I would give them A or A-. It doesn't FEEL like they are playing at their best, and they have looked shaky at times. Their 3pt shooting strategy is usually hit or miss, and their defense looks as if it has dipped a bit.

[@Yntag]

I think that the wolves should be higher than a C. They just lost the heart of their team in KAT and now they’re trying to figure things out without him. They were off to a terrible start but in the their defense has been insane. In their past 6 games they’ve held their opponents to 92 pts or less 5 times.

[@mugsby7962]

How are the Warriors a C? Why is everyone overreacting about us? We are still in the top 5 in West, which is EXTREMELY tough this year. We are winning against good teams. We have the least star-studded roster, of the serious teams, in the entire NBA, and we are still right up with everybody. If you told me last year that we would be 5th in the west after that ABYSMAL season last year, I would have laughed in your face. We are doing way better than a C. It should be a B+, considering no one thought that we would be this good, not even Warriors' fans.

Video idea for main KOT4Q channel: randomly trade every starter with the trade finder using a random number generator (1- however many offers you get) . go team by team, even if its a new player, trade them. simulate 1 season. pick the worst team record wise, randomly trade their starters once more, then rebuild them
