love that price

 

ESPN put out a bubble ranking of players and it's as absurd as you'd imagine

 

link or perish

 

also I hope everything is okay with Zion and his family - that's first and foremost.

also shows that adding a bunch of extra teams to an already precarious situation just to highlight one player was always foolish at best - if Zion is missing some re-seeding games then there is especially zero reason to have teams like the Suns Wizards Spurs Kings and Pelicans down there.

 

Middleton is ranked 17th behind Simmons and Tatum lol

 

Jimmy Butler at 10....????
Paul George at 8??????!!!
Embiid at 6?!?!

Cmon man

 

I'd have Simmons ahead of Middleton tbh.

 

All of these are laughable.

 

Notorious postseason king Playoff P

 

there is nothing Simmons does better than Middleton

 

I can post the full top 50 later when I get home since I have ESPN+

 

just hilarious that Lebron is #1 - I don't even know if he's the best player on his own team.

 

Okay, chill lol. He’s 100% been the best player on that team. Teams numbers are not great when he goes off the floor

I know this is bait but still

 

Of course Iggy chose group economics lol

 

lol fuck all the way off iggy fuckin vulture

 

do you honestly think middleton is better than either of them

not if the others would be better on the bucks/fit better with giannis. but like if middleton played them 1v1

 

so basically every player in the bubble is gonna have a message on their jersey except Butler Lebron and AD?

 

he certainly dunks better lol. arguably a better defender though that’s close.

 

I mean if we go by 1v1 then Russell Westbrook is probably the best player in the NBA

but in the standard 5v5 I do believe Middleton is better in all aspects - with or without Giannis

 

woozy emoji

 

Middleton is so underrated defensively but I would concede the defense ability

 

guys this is also my bubble pre-season - just practicing and perfecting the takes

 

okay fair point. 1v1 was dumb.

i love khris but do not under any circumstances think he’s better than simmons. i think he’s better than tatum but tatum has a higher ceiling and even then it’s a toss up
