Thought this interesting from a gambling site.
I don't have an opinion nor a full grasp on the methodology used other than:
Highlights from our predictive power ratings and simulations of currently scheduled games.
Can't argue with it other than they not really looking at rosters? I mean, yeah, Pistons beat us, but we beat SAS (twice) so perhpas it adds up to us above Pistons? Or is it looking at its lack of experience?
Clev odds not including Harden or they just looking at results vs other teams. If so That will take time to equate if they continue to succeed. To that degree does it adjust for Tatum returning?
This season pretty much going as I thought or hoped. Sure there was the 2-9 stretch but maybe a team has to falter to know what to correct, It also has to succeed. While we can guess a lot I'd think Brown and Co. know a hell of a lot more than we do.
That Jalen is as PhilC says being his better "Baron Davis" self (more dishing then swishing) and KAT now a vastly improved defense center the team is rounding out. OG Toe looked pretty good the last game and inflicting demonic influences on opponents.
Be nice if Josh snapped out of his funk and never goes back!
It’s like Brunson and Kat made a deal - ok bruh, if you pass the ball once in awhile I’ll play defense. I have no clue how betting works, I suck at it.
I think someone got it thru their thick skulls that if a chip is the goal they need to adhere to what coach wants.
If I had to guess, They wanted it to do it their way as best they know how. But neitehr have achieved the ultimate. Brown has knocked on the door and has a ring with Warriors as Assistant.
KAT has the money. He does not have the legacy.
Brunson is two years away from next olympics and In my opinion Mr Illionis, state HS chip, Two chips with 'Nova with a National player of the year gets him not far away from HOF. Olympic gold might get him there. A finals MVP or just a chip would complete a very winning resume. its not the NBA HOF, its "Basketball HOF". Allstars and All NBA gets you close but he needs a either a longer resume all NBA or some finals glory.
The aggregate of it all is impressive.
My take is They are figuring shit out with new coach and they both have to figure out that attacking the basket is not always the best course. Its not about "Selfish" or not, its about instinct and that which go them to where they are today. THey have the career/Money, now they need the legacy. MIke brown is here for a reason. Question is about execution of the ideal.

I've always assumed it would come down to the coach getting through to those two. Brown's tenure depended on it.
It appears he got them to listen and take action on it finally, because there is no doubt several games ago Brunson made a decisive switch to prioritize facilitating over his own scoring and KAT has been a very good boy.

You right. And I wouldn’t be surprised if it didn’t happen in some similar fashion

I still ascribe to the theory that Brunson conveniently forgets how to pass when allstar voting begins each year
