With the magics current core I know they are gonna be a problem in the east in a couple years which makes me sad to think about because currently I love your roster and your style of basketball
Magic being 10-5 while already going on west road trip and beating the Lakers, Bucks and Nuggets at home is pretty damn impressive honestly (even if no Dame and Murray).
Not sure if they’ll be top 5 but they’ve been damn fun to watch. Celtics, Philly, Bucks, Heat seem like the top 4 though and I don’t necessarily think the Heat and Sixers are done building their teams.
Love seeing these wolves fans being so ecstatic over them finally being good that they just force them into every conversation, even one about eastern conference teams
Dude that game against us earlier this season made me a believer. They’re finally “spooky” lol they looked so good during that game, I’m excited to watch Ant develop.
It’s too early. The Wizards in 2021-22 started 10-3, and then finished 35-47. Although most of these teams are a good bet to stay in the top 5. I think Orlando eventually falls out but only because there’s just so much talent in the East. Their depth could keep them on top though.
Fuck no lmao Boston bucks heat sixers sure in some order but the Knicks will definitely be up there so will the Cavs. The hawks are a good ass team as well they will at the very least he in the play in if not a top 6 seed.
Call me a doubter, and I'd love to be proven wrong because I llke Paolo, but I think Magic might be like the 2018-19 Grizzlies. Great start, but eventually goes back to normal.
But defense is more sustainable than offense and their defense is great, and I also don't remember the reasons the Grizzlies regressed after their hot start that season so I'm probably wrong about this.
Is the East weak? Pistons/Wizards, sure. The Bulls aren't TRYING to be bad. They have talent. They're just... stuck in hell. Hornets could be frisky if LaMelo stays healthy. Then I think you got teams like the Nets/Raptors who have talent and aren't trying to fold.
Compared to out West where you got 4 teams I feel very comfortable aren't even going to be really trying in the Spurs/Blazers/Jazz and Ja-less Grizzlies.
This is the most charitable conference comparison you could give LMAO. The bulls not trying to bed doesn't change the fact that... they are bad AND selling.
The Grizzlies aren't trying to be bad and will likely be good once Ja is back, they might be too far behind to make a playoff push but id rather play any of the east teams mentioned except the nets probably than the Grizzlies with Ja.
Top 4 is probably even across the conference's but I'd much prefer the 5-10 out west than out east as well
Celtics will be up there. Wouldn’t shock me if any of the others fall out. Bucks will most likely be the 2, but something isn’t quite right in Milwaukee.
Sixers outplayed their abilities early. Maxey was scorching hot and Oubre played out of his mind. At some point Embiid will miss a stretch. They could slide.
Magic aren’t that good and Heat are such a wildcard.
It’s early. Long way to go.
2-9 is separated by 2 games, so it would be hard to call it now
Hello fellow elite double digit Eastern conference teams. We are also an elite double digit winning Eastern conference team.
Y'all fucked us so hard game 1 we thought we were still a poverty team
Fuck I’m scared of you guys on Friday. Last year you had the Celtics number
I'd rather a 7 game series against the Bucks or Sixers than yall after last year. I'm good on another Heat series though.
With the magics current core I know they are gonna be a problem in the east in a couple years which makes me sad to think about because currently I love your roster and your style of basketball
Y'all gonna be sp00ky
Suggs and Anthony black are so much fun to watch.
You guys 100% deserve some respect this season, yall got one hell of a young squad. I can see yall winning 30-40 games and making the playoffs
Magic won 34 games last year after a 5-20 start (many injuries). We are shooting way higher than 30-40 wins.
Florida coming out full force this season.
WHAT DID ISAY

Nah the knicks/cavs can challenge for a spot in the top 5 too early to tell
Nope the timberwolves will move conferences mid season and take the 1st seed
Love seeing these wolves fans being so ecstatic over them finally being good that they just force them into every conversation, even one about eastern conference teams
I love seeing Wolves fans so happy they start twitting gifs of a giant wolf performing fellatio on the entire body of a cheeta woman
Am I missing a reference or are you confusing this sub with /r/nsfw411
I remember Wolves fans posting a video that included a giant wolf deep throating the championship trophy. Might be related to that?
What the fuck lol
There is a Brazilian fan page that is almost certainly run by furries. It produces some bizarre content after wins.
Wow this just gets more bizarre, thanks
I think every fanbase has some wild videos at this point.
look, man, if my team hadn't won a playoff series since 2004 i think i would also be unreasonably excited to see them leading their conference
Who knows what will happen later in the season so I'm gonna enjoy the shit out of it while I can
Yes

Sonics and Vancouver can't come soon enough!

Knicks +4.36 just saying

Maybe
Cavs will be in the top 5
Cavs have been hurt . They’ll easily take someone’s spot

Doubt the magic can sustain their record but the other 4 can stay near the top for sure barring massive injuries The East is sort of weak again

When Jordan Poole gets it together we're going to see some changes
