Russell Westbrook 27 minute triple-double performance last night over the Bucks for a OKC win won the 2016-17 NBA MVP award!!!
OKC without Harden/Ibaka/Durant has a 44-33 record with 5 more games left in the season on the strength, leadership, and creative 2 way performance of Russell Westbrook .. Last night Westbrook tied the performance of the Famous HOF Oscar Roberson by having his 41st triple-double game in a season over the Bucks. Westbrook tied a record i thought no NBA player would have come close to reaching .... Wilt Chamberlain 100 pt game without 3 ball shots are the next record i believe wont be reached.
Lance Stephenson 2 way performance alongside teammate Paul George is back in the Indiana Pacers rotation, Last night the Pacers outscored the Raptors in the 4th quarter 31-15 for a 18 pt win 108-90, which had all the Raptors players wanting to physically fight Lance Stephenson for scoring the Pacers last 2 points LMAO

Cavs look ready despite all the talk about can they turn it on after a mediocre March. They whipped the Celts in their building. Griffin has assembled a deep bench for their defense of their world title, too many shooters and now they're healthy and they even added Larry Sanders for rim protection. I expect them to have another cake walk to the finals. I expect they'll take the Celts in 5 if they meet in the EC finals.
Lakers coach Luke Walton tried everything possible to TANK the Spurs game in San Antonio to stay a tie with the Suns as the 2nd worst team in the league .. but coach Pop has already won 60 games this season .. so Pop rested his top players to beat coach Luke Walton at his own losing game .. Lakers won 102-95 LMFAO
The L.A. Lakers are trying to lose games, which is appropriate because the Lakers have so much to lose by winning games. L.A. owes its pick in the 2017 NBA draft to the 76ers, but it’s protected in the top three. Finishing with as bad a record as possible helps the Lakers keep their pick.

Wow! The season-injured D.Wade coming back to play in the Bulls final 3 games of the regular season .. I believe it was the Knicks win over the Bulls Tuesday night to make the Bulls tied with Wade's ex-Heats team, and the new/old "Lance Stephenson" Pacers for the East 7th seed playoff spot LMAO
7-Chicago Bulls 38-40
8-Miami Heats 38-40
9-Indiana Pacers 38-40
Who's going to be the 9th seed team at the end of the season? LMAO
Pat Riley?
Larry Bird?
Paxon?

If he doesn't win the MVP it'll be a crime.
Too bad it happened to Denver but Denver in a way needed to be knocked out to force them to break the cycle that's hurting their team. I've had enough of their shenanigans. Jokic is the real deal though it's gonna come down to if he wants to be GREAT, he's right there with Towns as of today
Harden has had a historic season himself and should've won MVP 2 yrs ago(I'm still hot about it myself) but as you said Russ stands alone here this yr, he was my pick day 1
In 2008, i wanted us to trade our pick down in the draft to select Westbrook .. the 2016-17 NBA MVP goes to Westbrook hands-down!
The OKC Thunder lineup of "Westbrook/Harden/Durant/Ibaka" those 4 players were going to bring the OKC club a championship .. whomever were the Sonic/Thunder draft-scout from 2007 to 2010 were a B.Ball genius
There have been some flashes in Preseason thus far. What jumps out at me immediately...
Denver Nuggets are going to be scary good this yr
Ben Simmons looks really spry, healthy, athletic, pretty much as advertised
Kyle Kuzma (serious hot take here)...HE WILL BE IN THE RUNNING FOR ROY
Rockets offense will be straight machinery
Malik Monk can flat out shoot the rock
Wolves have a chance to be special
Dante Exum/Mudiay/Hezonja/Russell will have bounce back seasons
Teodosic/Beverly will be one of the best backcourts in the league
Mike James is gonna make you say WHOA!!! a few times this yr

I was looking for a better showing from the Sixers. Pre-season means nothing but with a team like the Sixers, wins can build some confidence but they're 0-2 with so much talent on the team:?. Simmons hasn't shot the ball well but the guy has fascinating prospects, so tall and well built, not the beanpole you might expect for being that young. Lonzo has nothing on the kid as far as passing and ball handling ability but his D and shooting need work. Still a favorite of mine to become ROY.
Bold predictions. Dante Exum now looks like he has a serious/season ending injury. Interesting to see how everyone else pans out.
I agree .. the Nuggets will make some noise this season .. I'm still hoping we make a trade with the Nuggets for Faried strong rebounding at both forward position.
The Utah Jazz look to make some noise this season too.
The new improve Timberwolves has taken off to a winning process in the preseason games with Butler Gibson reuniting with coach Thibs to outscore their opponent for 3 quarters of the game .. Coach Thibs has played a 10 man rotation in both preseason wins .. WHY?
The Mavs coach Carlisle may switch rookie DSJ to the SG position before his rookie season is over.
The Lakers offense/defense look the same as last season having Lonzo at the point .. they should have kept snitching D'Angelo Russell as their SG this season .. D'Angelo Russell has been lighting it up for the Nets as a combo-guard.
I must admit I expected the 76ers roster to take off dominating the preseason games having Fultz n Simmons leading the point. I guess paying Reddick 10 times his worth got teammates wondering bout management in training-camp lol.
I dont like the idea of rookies and 2nd season players missing one preseason game when they had all offseason to work on being NBA-Ready (strong n healthy) for training-camp, preseason games, and the start of the season.
OKC miss Kanter lol
Bum coach Dantoni are off to another winning season for Houston Rockets by adding super star PG CP3 with Harding to lead the team, having frontcourt athleticism from Trevor Ariza, Clint Capela, and big-body Ryan Anderson in the paint will make it difficult to stop these Rocks.
