I wasnt sure how the lakers would click but I figured it would be entertaining to watch. I was wrong, this sucks. Might have to just go all in on UCLA to get my basketball kick this year.

Reminds me of an old Larry Bird story. I believe it was Anthony Mason, but basically he was all muscled up and Bird used to make fun of him and tell him muscles don't make baskets. Every time Larry would score he would yell muscles to screw with him.

That said, I wonder how good Luka could be if he took it seriously and was in as good a shape as a guy like Tatum, or Lebron.
 


Just shows the difference of A-level athletes and the tire salesmen level athletes in the UFC.

Yeah but then you had Jordan , and Tim Grover and you realize Luka is leaving a lot on the table by not having that kind of dedication.

Yea, it kinda bothers me the guy is that talented but relies on his skills so heavily that it appears he invests very little in his overall fitness and strength. Last year against the Clippers in the playoffs it was obvious he was exhausted during the 4th Qtr. of almost every game.

lol. Lonzo should pull a GSP. Show up randomly, take some dudes belt, and leave the “sport” forever and continue making more money playing an actual sport.
 
The Cavs might be the most improved team. Evan Mobley is legit.

Him and Jarret Allen are are Effective Big Men Allen is getting big rebounding numbers and Mobley provides outside shooting and great effort on defense. Rubio and Sexton just need to keep hitting their shots and keep the big guys involved.

The two big surprises to me after 10 games is the Milwaukee Bucks and Atlanta Hawks both going 4-6. That's a 33-49 pace. That isn't even playoff pace is it?

Bucks are banged up. Missing Middleton and Divencenzo and have only had Jrue Holiday for a game or two. Lopez is out too.

It's Giannis with George Hill, Portis, Grayson Allen and Pat Connaughton against the world right now

That's a tough spot to be in considering they are defending champions. At 4-6 they are in danger of having to struggle for the rest of the season just to make the playoffs if things don't turn around soon. They play the 8-2 76'ers tomorrow and could easily lose that one too and be 4-7.

I bet most real athletes would clean up in the UFC. Even bjj is way overrated. I just saw a video of Dillon Danis, who is supposedly one of the best bjj players every get choked out by some fat pudgy bouncer not too long ago. Can you imagine any bouncer taken down mike tyson? He would have ate 4 or 5 of them alive.
