Only thing that really jumps out is Miami/Phi play the 1st 2 games in Philly in the first 3 days of the playoffs. Possible Embiid misses both games and then the series goes back to Miami. I think Miami is the worst team in the east and thus the playoffs but if Embiid is out then they are certainly live.
It's always fun to see which team's fans whine about getting one of their games relegated to NBATV.

Raptors -450

Phi -200 (not really sure as Embiid said he is out gm 1, no clue how much longer he could miss but I'm sure there will be clarity on that in the next 3-4 days)
Cavs -450
Houston -2000 or something huge
GS -400...Could be higher, they've been so abysmal lately but can't see SA getting much respect here
Por -180
OKC -150...Books have given OKC a lot of respect all year but seems hard for them to be a bigger fav than homecourt when playing a team that's like 30-7 in their last 37

Raps a little higher than I thought, was way off on Bucks as they are +125, Cavs was close, GS a little low on but acknowledged it could be higher, Por I was right, OKC close to right, Phi higher than I thought but said I wasn't sure cause of Embiid's issues.

The long comment at the bottom of the Backpicks profile on KAJ is amusingly bat****. The guy drops his own top 50 and his methodology. My favorites are 27. KG, 31. David Robinson, and the fitting error of 24. Paul Paul. I think even twog's list might be better.

I hated the trade at the time but I have to say he looks way more explosive than I ever expected.

Blatt will never get another NBA gig. His one strength is the ability to scream at and bench Euro-scrubs when they don't bow to him enough. That's not worth anything in the NBA. If you remember:

1) Every player, janitor, ball boy, and beat reporter hated the guy
2) He had no use for Kevin Love other than to have him stand in the corner. He got furious when Love suggested plays.
3) Incredibly arrogant despite being a dunce
4) Drew up an out-of-bounds play with 1 second left in a playoff game sans Kyrie and Love that had Lebron inbounding the ball. Luckily Lebron scratched the play and hit the shot like a boss.

Noob question here( as always when I wonder into this thread):
Why does the market have Celtics vs Bucks so close? Irving injury?

Think he’s asking why Celtics aren’t bigger favorites. I don’t understand either. Bucks are a mess and the coaching advantage is just huge.

Outputting Kareem #1 seems fine for career impact ranking. But I can't take any supposed numbers based algo that has Rodman at #86 or w/e as something interesting to read.
