Fair point about tanking. If we only have one chance to go all in, I would think a perimeter player who can score and get others involved would be the priority, not risking what Wemby is doing well already.

10 years ago I was eating at a restaurant in Santa Monica. We noticed Jerry West and Rod Thorn having drinks at the bar. Then Rambis walked in the door and joined them, then Kupcheck, then Coop, then Byron. Every few minutes another Laker Legend. And finally Magic. Then their party moved to a...

It hurt his stock because he can't shoot. A forward who can shoot, but his ballhandling and playmaking skills are limited to tertiary role is fine. A forward who can't shoot or be a primary/secondary playmaker isn't fine. My actual issue with him is that he has no semblance of a layup package...

The Cavs trying to act like they might keep Garland makes sense. They know they won't get anywhere close to equal value in return if they are forced to deal him. If Mitchell really wants to go to an over-the-cap team the Cavs are better suited by doing a S&T of Mitchell and keeping Garland imo....

Would take Carter over Dillingham because of defensive issues. Same reason I would not want Trae Young on our team (especially for that kind of money).

Yeah. I love playing hands like jack-ten suited, especially from late position. Easy to walk away from and a fairly good chance to win a very large pot. With pocket aces if you don't hit that third ace you might be screwed, if you do hit that third ace you're probably winning a small pot either...

exactly. that's why I'll typically wear a hat and pair of shades and keep my mouth under wraps of my hands the whole time like Phil Hellmuth does.

He moves and plays like Jimmy Butler tbh. Butler looks more muscular and also is more about his tenacity and clutch gene.

Fuck no. Spurs would be getting bent over in that trade. Furthermore, Spurs don’t leak shit like this so you know it’s bullshit.

All in with pocket aces pre flop and you're most likely picking up the fucking blinds and that's it. :lmao Unless you're in late position and you get lucky and someone else shoves or bets or even limps pre flop... but the limpers aren't going to call an all in shove.

1800879942000906677 This reeks of BS tbh :lol Think dude is just looking for clicks.

Yuck. What a horrible trade. That can’t be real

Clingan might be there best bet at improving the team the next 2-3 years when they don't have any draft picks. They are in win-now mode. They will definitely explore trading down a bit because of this.

Derp Nowinzki for all his flaws didn't miss THAT many free throws. His miss in 2006 was painful and probably cost them that championship, going up 3-0 and all, but Luka is literally white Shaq.

Waaaaaaaaaay too big of a package for Trae Young. I want him, but not at that absurd cost.

You have to admit, last season's experiment went so bad that it definitely hurt Sochan's stock. You could tell it really hurt his confidence a bit. Luckily he is still young and this year he needs to bounce back.

That trade looks...not great.... And if someone is tweeting a thing, just post the tweet.

I would not be surprised if they take Carrington at 8 as the 'late riser no one expects so high because we're so so s-m-r-t!" surprise pick He physically looks just like Dejounte did in college body wise plus a big hairstyle On the other hand, if I remember right he has some good analytics to...

I wouldn’t do that trade if I’m the spurs

Sorry bro, you're just straight up wrong.

Dusty Garza is on Twitter saying the Spurs are targeting Zacc in a trade up with the Hawks and later on hints that Trae Young might be included in a mega deal. It would probably looks like this: Spurs get: Trae Young 1st pick Hawks get: Keldon Johnson

1800936391590723960 Clingan going in the top 3 would be so nice for us. Would pretty much guarantee us one of Risacher/Sheppard.

I think it's the other way around. The Spurs couldn't give Sochan away if they tried. He's a tweener forward who can't shoot, can't defend, and generally doesn't make any impact on the floor outside of scoring easy buckets off Wemby double and triple teams. If going from 8 to 5 guarantees me I...

True superstars raise both floor and ceiling. As in they're capable of carrying shit rosters to the playoffs, even winning a series here and there. Solid all-stars and fake superstars like Harden are floor raisers. They're capable of carrying shit rosters, looking good on legit rosters, but...

For me, the target at the end of the first is Tyler Smith or Filipowski.

That's a strange way to look at it. I see superstars as the pieces that make you championship contenders, hence "ceiling raisers". If you have a team full of good role players, you won't be a bad team, but you will never win it all. Hence "floor raisers". I guess one could see it as: "we...

Putler with the look that says "Shit, I am down wind and too close to poopy pants!"

The 3-5 day SMO is going so well that two years later a russian Deputy Defense Minister has been arrest for corruption https://x.com/DefenceHQ/status/1800921690832064877

What do we need the most on PF position? He's an elite shooter, can put the ball on the floor and score in mid range, good around the rim and a solid enough defender when he's got a rim protector next to him. Which part of 23/8 seven footer who's shooting 40% from 3pt on 8 attempts isn't a good...

So I'm sort of curious about Markkannen but doesn't seem to fit what we need most. And why isn't Utah better with him? Curious what I'm missing.
