I agree and have to say Steph is truly a snake in the grass that most people don't see. Him and Draymond are both linked together but the media always believes Draymond is a rogue actor in all of his actions, but Steph approves of everything he does and protects him. The reason I bring this up is...

For the record, I can also see the Mavs winning it all. Them, Denver and Boston are the only teams I see with a chance of going all the way.

When did they get Wemby?

:lol Clippers doing what they do best

I'm not saying Mitchell will re-sign, I'm saying one way or another it'll be sorted out this off season. Markkanen supposedly does too, which is not surprising. It's the first time he's got to be "the man", a role he wouldn't play on many other teams. No, as in not making a no brainer trade...

Clippers shitting their pants :lol Also, lol Nephew being out again.

:lol Clippers gonna Clip

Golden boy made the ultimate "super team" by being part of a contingent that begged the then consensus second best player in the league to join his already young, well fitting, consensus best team in the league because he had no interest in competing to earn his hardware.

All of them except Curry tried to make superteams to compensate for their age and it backfired. Being taken care of by homegrown, young teams. Poetic justice, tbh.

And that's how the "cool kids" end up freezing in Milwaukee rather than sipping margaritas in Miami, maybe Donovan learned a lesson (already got burned when he was sent to Cleveland rather than NY). Randle, Sabonis, Murray, Holiday wanted to remain in their teams long term at the time of their...

He's still #1 on my BB and top 3 on my Spurs BB.

they played Paris, currently the number two in the French league. They lost the Eurocup finals against the two weeks ago, with Risacher struggeling, especially in the second of two lost games. So it was kind of a nice comeback for him I guess. it went unnoticed, that Risacher had a 14 points, 10...

These old stars are about to a point where they're going to take smaller contracts and join the next generation if they're going to compete and extend their legacy.

so tired of watching Embiid's mangled corpse out there injured/ill during a playoff series hurts to look at him dragging lol

Sure, but I'm not talking about a straight up deal for him. I'm talking about a 3 team deal where we have to provide something for a deal to get done and it gives us leverage. As for Mcbride himself, a 3D PG would fit nicely if we bring in a SF that can facilitate. I'm not saying he's a...

I wasn’t a fan of the Primo pick at the time but the Spurs have had some hits over the years too operating with the same MO. With a supposed flat draft, I’m sure players will move up and down draft boards through workouts and the combine process. Carlton feels like one of those guys to me.

Mitchell is an All-NBA player and what the cool kids nowadays do if they can't get where they want to immediately, is take the money, give the incumbent team an opportunity to reorient the team so that it fits better and in a few years when it fails to yield the results he seeks, force a trade to a...

no timetable for return

I was just making the point that guard is the easiest position to get good players. With patience you will end up with a good one without having to overpay for an extremely expensive and flawed one.

There's reasons to believe each and every player I mentioned could get to free agency: Donovan Mitchell's future in Cleveland looks murky as he might not want to remain there long term and signing an extension gives him much less control over where he lands. Markkanen's max extension is less than...

Understood but I just ignore that kind of stuff.

No, he won't. He'll either extend (fellow fringe All-Stars such as Randle, Sabonis, Murray, Holiday have done so recently) or if the Jazz aren't all but certain he'll re-sign in free agency, he'll be traded to a team that's confident he will, like Anunoby, Siakam, etc. Only the Craptors (Van...

There's no way he makes it past the deadline without an extension or a trade, Ainge isn't that stupid. They'll either offer him the max or trade him, depending on their future plans. I'm sure Ainge would like to blow it up and start over, but Jazz never tanks. The only franchise in the league...

Seeing a generation of old stars getting smacked forcibly to the ground -- Harden, Westbrook, Curry, Durant, LeBron, all getting dumped hard this year.

Salaun - I'd be very surprised if the Spurs pick a player who is several years away from being able to contribute. They have a roster jam as it is and then six potential lottery picks in the next three years.

Opinions are like assholes.

No, but Haliburton may be the worst defender in the league and the whole Pacers team is pretty bad on that end. They may be already sticking them on a treadmill. I haven't looked at their pick assets, but how much better can they get from here? If Vassell can slot into more of a 3rd scoring...
