    What makes Chicago a great city? I'm obviously not from the US, so I don't know much about Chicago as a city itself. Lately (the last few years), all I hear about Chicago is gangs and shootings.
    Great food, everything is closeby, you can get around by taxi, some of the best music in the world, great museums. There's a ton to do. You hear about shootings because Chicago has strict gun laws and really bad ghettos, which is a dangerous mix for the folks unfortunate enough to be stuck in that area without a gun. Pau probably won't be spending a lot of time on the south side.

    Chicago isn't the dangerous city it's claimed to be, in fact violent crimes have declined in the last two decades, even the last few years. It's a right wing effort to make them look bad, primarily because they've tried to enact gun control measures. That's a big no no in some quarters here and deserves lies to be told in retaliation. Certain parts are bad, to be sure, but nowhere as bad as in these fantasies.
    I wish those right wingers would stop shooting all those people. Funny how gun violence is so predominant in places where only people who don't give a about the law have guns.

    I'm hoping the Spurs give Andrew Bynum a training camp invite. I strongly doubt anyone who ill sign him during free agency.
    After torpedoing three teams in two seasons like he has, I'd be pissed at PATFO if they went after this guy.

    Wall Beal Pierce Nene & Gortat... Nice 5.
    They played beautiful team basketball for much of the playoffs. That broke down a few times which is why they didn't beat Indiana. I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see them as the top team in the east next year.

    The Wiz are an interesting team. Pierce is a downgrade from last year's Ariza but the rest of the East has gotten weaker at the top. WAS definitely has the talent to win the ECF but they need Wall to make another leap tbh.
    They don't beat the Cavs.

    the Cavs have nobody on the interior that can bang with Nene/Gortat outside of the oft-injured Varejao. If CLE can get Love then they should be able to outscore the Wizards.

    But as presently constructed, i like the Wizards in a close series especially with the Pierce addition.

    I think just having Prime Lebron in today's East makes you a lock to win the conference imho. Wizards definitely are improving but up to what extent? I can't see a fully-matured Wall next season.

    Wall looked great in the playoffs. If he and Beal don't get derailed in their development they could be a top backcourt in the league.

    ESPN writers expecting Lebron to teach Wiggins?

    He will get Wiggins open looks, he will settle the rookie down, but actually teach him...
    Why is it always assumed that great players with ungodly athletic prowess can teach?


    Kobe, MJ, Wilt... Teachers?
    Nope.

    It worked so well with Mario Chalmers and Norris Cole.

    I wonder if the Spurs approached Deng with their MLE? He wants a lot more, naturally, but you never know what exactly he wants and what he will accept until you inquire.

    I don't think Deng has been about anything but the money for a while now. He got overlooked too long financially. I think it ruined him. I don't blame him for it.

    I agree with your 'it never hurts to ask' premise, but there's a less than zero percent chance that Deng is going to agree to come off of somebody's bench (even a contender) for 50 cents on the dollar.

    Pop has way more Balls than this joker and makes half that for those very things.

    Pretty much this guy is trying to spin this so he can feel good about it. Reminds of the guys in the NBA forum here.
