Serious possibility of getting the place at Dural, I feel a bit anxious getting my hopes up so much, but it'd be bloody perfect. Bus stop across the road that would be a one hour door-to-door commute to work, backyard for my dog, virtually walking distance to shops, two bedder, $400 pw. If we don't get it I'm going to be gutted.

Celtics space the floor really well. Need a 2nd option in crunch time to take the pressure of isiaha thomas tho.

Jalen Brown looks like he could be a player too.
yeah if brown can become a very good player (not expecting it to happen this season), it'll be perfect. Still feel we're looking for a big (dare I say it) marquee player

I persisted with Lost for its entirety despite how weird it got at times. The first 2-3 seasons were fantastic but then when it got into vanishing island territory, I felt it went too long.

A bit like the X-Files for me, great at its peak but probably went a few years too long.

The same applies for The Simpsons from about 2002 onwards.

Statistically he is looking like a massive bust. That is according to Kevin Pelton.
Maybe. I don't like stat junkies. Won't be a star. He has some nice attributes but needs to work on a few things at the pro level.

People said d'angelo russell was a bust early last year. Good coaching means a lot for good young players.

Blazers maybe, relies on Lillard being super human all season. Similar with the Rockets and Harden.

Clips should be good - they just never seem to be though. They're frustrating to watch!
Clips are good until the playoffs. Rockets are the hardest team to watch in the NBA.

East is far worse.

Yeah it's not as good. Don't think the gap is as big as you're suggesting though.

Btw, is it not weird to have started a new season on a Tuesday night? Haha. Chicago doesn't play until the 3rd day of the season dammit.

I follow players rather than teams in the NBA. I won't watch much bulls this year. The team dynamic is all wrong imo. All about the fun league pass teams, a bit of spurs and a bit of the celts if I can put up with their dh commentators.

Oh yeah, our front office are morons. Moved on DRose and Noah because we wanted to go younger...and then pick up Rondo and Wade.

Rondo and wade are just playing for $$$ at this stage. Love Butler tho....not sure how he'll feel about Wade making more than him this year....
