Give it a couple years when most of these teams all have 2-3 guys taking up 70% of the cap space and the rest of the roster on minimum deals. That’s going to be a competitive tournament
Stat inflation?

Dwyane Wade Says He’s Been Approached by Florida Democrats About Running for Office
Dwyane Wade, who was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame this weekend, confirmed that the topic of his potential candidacy in a Florida Senate race has been brought up in 'conversation' to him
Three months after reports surfaced that Florida Democrats were eyeing NBA legends Wade, 41, and Grant Hill, 50, as possible candidates for a U.S. Senate run in 2024, the former Miami Heat point guard has shared his reaction to the news.
When asked by The New York Times about the reports — which circled in May after an NBC News story reported that both of the former basketball players had been named by Democratic donor groups — Wade said he “heard” about the discussions.
He then confirmed that he has been approached about running for political office — but laughed off any questioning about whether he would actually consider launching a campaign.
“I mean, it’s just conversation,” Wade said. “‘Hey, you would be good for,’ ‘Hey, we can see you in,’ ‘We would love to have you in.’”
He continued, “It’s things that I’m passionate about that I will speak out on and speak up for. And so I don’t play the politician games. I don’t know a lot about it.”

Saw their teammate get hurt
Fuck Kanter but fuck Musk more.
Community notes is a terrible idea. The context there— how he performed in the NBA— has nothing to do with his point!
I personally think his point is stupid but it’s just an egregious personal attack— it is meant as a put-down but it actually reinforces his point. If he was great against men, of course he would be great against women. If he was a scrub, performing as he claims he would actually would make the hypothetical stronger!
Dame about to put 50 on the Heat. Not FOR the Heat but ON the Heat cuz he’ll steal be in wack ass Beaver Country
Who didn’t A.I. influence? After all the criticism he won in the end.
Kawhi will probably have him up there when he’s inducted.
That part about what he came in thinking with three championships followed by that 95% line is the strongest testament to Heat culture I have ever heard.
Laughing because he knows MJ is a shit business man who gambled away his ownership as only Black male majority owner in major American professional sports.
"Without KD!"
I think maybe a guaranteed appearance as the lowest ranked play-in team might be appropriate.
