NBA 2025 Prediction Contest: January Updates
417 sats \ 11 comments \ @Undisciplined 17h Stacker_Sports
I'm finally moving on from Luka, who won't even be eligible for these awards, with how much time he's missed. While I'm at it, I'll also move off of Ant, who just isn't looking like the guy we expected to see this season. Tatum is an easy enough All NBA replacement, but I have not idea who's going to get the final spot, so I picked Wemby, who I at least think the media will be eager to vote for.
I made sure to record @grayruby's switch from the Pacers to the Magic. Boy, that is not aging well.
Remember, older correct predictions are worth more than younger ones, so don't wait too long to get off your bad predictions.

Funny how Wemby starts to kick ass right after I took him off my All NBA list. Now I will look silly if I put Wemby back on my All NBA list again. But Luka needs to go, and I don't know who to replace him with. Maybe Donavan Mitchell? But damn, Wemby is playing lights out. Did you guys sew what he did in Paris?
Hmmm.... I'll need to think about this...
And for those who missed it, Wemby did this in Paris.

I was looking at Mitchell, but it's really not clear who deserves the most credit on the Cavs. They could easily have three All NBA guys, but no first teamers.

I agree their success is because of the Mitchell, Garland, Mobley trio firing on all cylinders. I'll try to get my pick in before the end of January to get that extra point. Leaning on Wemby now, even though it makes me look silly...

It's just chronological. Although, that's about where you'd be on merit, too.

I will change Luka to SGA. I will begrudgingly stick with the Magic for now.

You know, the Cavs are just sitting there waiting for someone to believe in them, as are your Rockets.

I know. I am likely going to make one final switch but I want to see what happens at the trade deadline.
