This NBA season should be bananas.

Did anyone see Giannis Antetokounmpo for the Bucks? 6-11 ball handler than can play every position. That guy is legit and may be second most talented guy in NBA behind James.

Lavar Ball is a maniac.

LeBron finally has some help*

And what about the big 3 in OKC: Westbrook, Melo and PG13!

I'm sure there's more, but I'm excited for this NBA season for the first time in a while.

Giannis really has his coming out party last season, and should be an MVP candidate this year. Lebron, while still dominant, is leaving or he left his prime.

Wade in Cleveland? I didn’t ever hear anything about that, so I’m guessing he’s an average player now

I'm excited to see the Cavs this year. A few seasons ago Wade, Rose, and Lebron on the same team would of been unstoppable. I just hope Golden State goes down.....they're too cocky.....I'm not a fan.

Below average probably.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

Yeah he's just a shell of his former self.

The Greek Freak....definitely fun to watch.

I'm really excited about this Brooks kid for the Grizzlies, too.

 

[JungRebel]

Wade has good chemistry with LeBron

Below average probably.

They play a great two man game together that can hide some of Wade's diminished athleticism. Wade will be better in Cleveland than anywhere else, and I think the Cavs win the East easily.

Just some other things to watch for this year, regarding the OP: Chris Paul in Houston, the Process in Philly, and Cousins and Davis in Nola. Should be a great year of basketball.

I’m really trying to not jump the gun on him, but Brooks is looking like he may have been the steal of the draft. The kid is aggressive, he gives a lot of effort on defense, and he’s got great range. All good signs for a first year player

Also, I just heard this yesterday... The last time the grizzlies drafted someone that made it to his second NBA contract with the team? Mike Conley. How’s that for absolutely anysmal drafting over the last decade and a half, and the fact that they just release Baldwin didn’t help things.

Everybody is better with lebron, that’s how great a player he is.

Father Time sucks ***. It’s coming for lebron, all those miles are catching up. It’s gonna be like Kobe, where all the sudden he can get any separation from defenders.

 

[Seinfeld]

Much like a professional wrestler, I have a feeling that he’s been playing through a hell of a lot over the years, and eventually his body is gonna give out. When it happens, it probably won’t be a gradual declines be either. It’ll be a pretty sudden stop

 

[TheStateUofMS]

I disagree barring a major injury. I doubt there's anyone who keeps their body in as good of shape as Lebron. Follow him on instagram and you'll see how much work he puts into taking care of himself. He's not as big as he used to be either. He's much more lean now. Probably because carrying all that weigh when he was around 270lbs would be bad for his body over the long term.

Kobe did. Kobe prolly kept in better shape than lebron actually. But those miles add up, when you include age and all the extra minutes he’s played going to 7 straight finals.

History tells us this ends up being a steep drop off, rather than steady decline.

Although lebron has always been a transcendent athlete, he could be the exception.
