Nuggets.
lol
Might as well use them before Jokic decides to take a night off and the coach decides to attend a volleyball game. Although it is a different coach now so maybe he will expect them to care about the Cup.
Ultimately, I found your case persuasive. Also, I looked at who's in their group and it's insane.
I haven't even looked at the groupings yet.

Portland
Group of death
Wow. Portland is going 0-4.
Clippers
just need your pick, @Coinsreporter
Thanks. What's the difference between emirates cup and NBA?
Emirates Air paid the NBA for the naming rights over this tournament.
Ok. so it's just a sponsor thing. I was thinking that it's like a mid tournament similar to MLB All Star games.
It is a midseason tournament, but the games count as part of the regular season too.
Great. I've found some info on it on ESPN, just going through it. What about the knockout games? Do they also include in regular season?
Yes. The only game that isn't a regular season game is the championship game.
Amazing! I wish we ever had such long tournaments for Cricket as well.
Scratch that. I'm taking the Nuggets.
Oh wow, is everyone getting eliminated in the first round?
Edit: Kawhi!!!
That was something. Good thing I included rebuys.
I thought I was getting eliminated too when the Pels tied the game and gained all the momentum going into the end of that game. Kawhi bailed me out with that buzzer beater.
Kawhi seems completely immune to momentum. He just goes his own speed.
Man, so many people got taken down by the Knicks.
Including Coins, who never made his pick
Just got home from trick or treating with kids. Missed out on all the games tonight. Was just checking scores while I walked. Very surprised the Knicks got beat. Hopefully my Clippers hang on to their lead. Halftime for Nuggets Blazers. Seems like Blazers also hanging on, not far behind.
Not making my pick yet, but can I change my season prediction pick for rookie of the year here? I don't want to spend time looking for the previous post. I want to change my ROTY pick to Dylan Harper.
Will make my NBA Cup pick later this week before Friday.
Of course, I'm going to put the prediction contest post up today.
Thanks. Thought I'll change it up before November. But it will probably keep getting changed as season progresses.

The Knicks were the heaviest favorite this evening, so any missed picks will automatically receive the Knicks.
