Sleeper just looks at box scores and NBA standings and formulates his opinions from that.

Pretty obvious.

People that watch the NBA know that AD is an overrated product. How many years will it take before people admit that I am, once again, 100% correct?

0-7. LOL. Keep defending it though!

Hornets 6-1 and Hawks 6-2 off to surprisingly good starts. Both teams are really moving the ball around as each team had 8 players in double figures their last game.

YEah Mike D'Antoni has been great for him offensively. Will be interesting to see if he can keep this up, the team isn't very deep and he has to play a ton. Still sucks on defense tho. He has to be the happiest person around that vine is going away.

Wonder if sleepers head is gonna explode? He spent so much time saying Harden sucks. But according to his logic, being good depends on your team's wins. Since Houston is doing so well...?!?!

Why would my head explode? I've always said Harden is one of the top players in the league. Top 26.

It's not a moving goalpost; it is the goal post.

Championships aren't the be all end all. MVP is another threshold that I used to have until D.Rose, the player I called absolute trash, won it. I was the only one on this forum that said he'd garbage and sure enough he was traded to rot on the Knicks just a few years later(and did nothing except blow in Chicago).

I also have called AD overrated since Day 1 and people still think he's Mr.Franchise/MVP material. LOL

Dantoni is a pretty good coach. Crazy how we tend to forget this bc of his time in NY.

Offensively, he is one of the best. Defensively, he is one of the worst.

Even in LA, the offense wasn't horrible.
