@HeadPho27321020 @TheHoopCentral Nah I wish I was here again. Mfs literally couldn't fit the city.

NYC mid for not being like this.

@HeadPho27321020 @TheHoopCentral "At least 5 Million" within a 10 block radius? 😂

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@HeadPho27321020 @TheHoopCentral Still havent a pic that looks any different. Even the areas near the players look pretty mid.

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@Novig New York City population: 8.4 Million
Oklahoma City population: 719,849

@FirstTake @Keefmorris I mean, it's facts. A healthy Jalen Williams and Spurs don't make it out the west.

Knicks fans gonna act like they're a lock to repeat, when a team hasn't repeated since KD & Steph built a super team.

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@YANGS1K @BiggLynch @statmuse So did Raptors. Plus Raptors were deeper.

Total accolades of players:
Raptors:
22x All-Star
2x Finals MVP
2x* ECF MVP (Kawhi would have one for 2019)
12x All-NBA
13x All-Defense
3x DPOY
1x MIP

Celtics:
19x All-Star
1x Finals MVP
1x ECF MVP
8x All-NBA
10x All-Defense
1x 6th Man

@27willbarb @scottie2hotti4 @GhostofQuincy @statmuse 2019 Steph and Klay would sweep all these teams but the Raptors and Thunder. Competition aint the same.

@bdd_83 @statmuse 2019 Steph and Klay would sweep all these teams but the Raptors and Thunder.

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@joelwhite94 @statmuse Let me guess, you put the Raptors at the bottom bc of injuries? But put Bucks at the top despite having an entire run based on injuries?

Bucks are 2nd Rd exits if Nets were healthy, struggled in the ECF despite Trae injured, & played PHX bc half the west was injured.

Stop it.

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@statmuse Ranking based on the prowess of the opponents during playoff run:
1) 2019 Raptors
2) 2025 Thunder
3) 2022 Warriors
4) 2026 Knicks
5) 2024 Celtics
6) 2023 Nuggets
7) 2020 Lakers
8) 2021 Bucks

I think 2019 Steph & Klay would SWEEP every team on this list BUT the Raptors & Thunder

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@YANGS1K @BiggLynch @statmuse 19 Raptors would probably sweep 24 Celtics. Dont compare "Super Team Era" teams to teams now.

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@GiantzCards @PlayersChoice_ 1) That's literally what the post is about 😂
2) And? Best summer as a Raptors fan.

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@ImDanD4 @Official414 Dumb asl. Compare Raptors roster to any roster on here and Raptors should be #3

The only team that COULD beat them was healthy KD-Warriors.

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@Pilay_PNF1017 They literally had this PLUS Harden on the Clippers and the team was weak asl. Clippers are gonna set back generations for all the picks they gave away (+SGA).

More importantly, the shit wasnt real. Just a way to bargain Kawhi price higher in LA.

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@MildDriver @TheNBACentel No blue check so you just crying like a bitch for real.

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@techsleyt @CenturyOG @BetMGM Bro, tell me who beating the 2019 Raptors outside of KD Warriors?

Like, compare the roster and tell me.

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@BeanieShai2 @BetMGM People need to sit back and simply compare rosters.

I don't understand how people can look at the 2019 Raptors roster and even fathom putting them last. 😂

OG (All-Def, 2nd best player on the Knicks)
Ibaka (All-Def)
VanVleet (All-Star)
Norm (All-Star)

This was their bench.

[1stRdDraftPick Dark Nowitzki @1stRdDraftPick]

@El_Wscieklizna @Novig No. It means that if he faced competition like the "2026 Spurs" in 2016 and 2019 he'd be a 6x NBA Champion with 2 more MVPs. Prime 73-9 Warriors would sweep these teams.
