Make your take
In context
GriffinI mean, like there's, I can't remember a year where it's like kind of this wide open, but also like there's so many question marks about so many different teams. We have 11 teams in the East.
BillI think they can make the playoffs like for real. Yeah.
BillAnd then you have the OKC versus San Antonio thing. Where are you on Charlotte?
Billbut I was in and I didn't like the injuries to start the year because it felt like, although I apparently con and Kobe white and those guys, so I started practicing again, but I feel like somebody in the East is going to go two and nine to start the year and be like, Oh my God, we're two and nine.
BillAnd then you like almost can't climb out of it. Cause you're going to need 46 wins. I'm higher on them the most though. Cause the three point shooting, are you high on
Griffinthem or no? I am. I also, I like, I just like everything they kind of have going. Like they're, They've really made it clear that they're getting a certain type of guy and they are setting a foundation.
GriffinBut it is just with the East being the way it is this year, you're just like, that's the thought. It's like, man, if they start out slow, that's the difference in being.
