So, Bruce, let's jump right into things with our predictions for the Western Conference.
Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving should work well together because, you know, Flagg is a willing passer and he'll make sure the old man has the ball enough in some sweet spots so he can get his points while also primarily running the offense.
So he may start out a bit slow, but I'm expecting big things from newly acquired Zachary Richachet.
Shouldn't be a problem for Dusty May, who comes off an NCAA championship in Michigan.
Not only is Kyrie Irving back, as you mentioned, but Cooper Flagg now has one full year of NBA experience under his belt.
Additionally, this team is long, lengthy, and athletic with lots of frontcourt players and options for first-year head coach Dusty May to tinker with.
He's got P.J. Washington, Derek Lively, Daniel Gafford, and newly acquired Santi Aldama, who's always been one of my personal favorites.
So this team is eight wins better than last season with Kyrie aboard and what they have going on in
He has under, and he says Cooper Flagg will become an all-star, but will Kyrie be around for the full season? I wish he was here because I'd like to know, is he talking about an injury or a potential trade for Kyrie Irving? So more on that, maybe on a future pod.
hey, they traded Luka Doncic once, so I suppose they could trade another future Hall of Famer.
