Isn’t there a kid on here who CONSTANTLY posts how “old” Lebron looks… been posting that horse shit for YEARS.

Lebron resigned for a 2 year extension 97.1 million with player option in year 2
 
Blazers are given +1000 odds to win the NW division by DraftKings.

Overall it seems that Denver are the odds favorite, followed by Minnesota, and then Portland.

I think that those odds underrate the Blazers. I think we will finish second if we don’t finish first.

I think a lot of Denver’s high value comes
solely from Jokic’s last two seasons. That the Wolves are rated highly because of the Gobert trade. But Anthony Edwards contributes to that a lot as well, even though he’s young. Someone just posted a list of of top 10 players who draw the best defenders, and Edwards was justifiably on it.

Still, Portland is often slept on. Dame missing last season and not being 100% is overlooked. And I think the CJ trade is looked at as a - for us, when really it might not be that much of a difference between him and Anfernee.

Honest question, you look at these 3 teams rosters and think WE have the most talent?

Yes

And even if one were to say we don’t, it’s not like any of the 3 teams are greatly superior to the others in terms of talent.

This is true for the entire NBA. The talent level from team to team is actually very close. It's pretty obvious on any given night a team can have a good game and beat pretty much any team. The 7 game series does a bunch to show the better team. Sometimes "They made a bunch of good shots" really is what happened. "Shots didn't fall" happens as well.
