Wonder if Pop actually sticks around long enough to reach the top. If he stays another three seasons he'll definitely surpass Don Nelson, but it's tough to see him coaching in the league beyond 2020.
I seriously doubt he'll finish with the most ever. He wont stick around that long imo. He only needs 20 wins to pass George Karl though and 55 wins to pass Pat Riley for #4 all-time. He should surpass Riley in this year's playoffs, barring a surprisingly early exit (knock on wood). Then he'd surpass Jerry Sloan for #3 all-time sometime early next season if all goes according to plan. I think that's as far as he'd get though. He's walking after after two more years imo.
He looked like an All Time Center because Clips had a PG throwing good lobs...They're a whole different team now.
I watched them against Pistons and Grizz...I say it's a very, VERY winnable game for Spurs.
We all know your game is the low expectations but the schedule is on our side again.
2 games vs Negative Record-Mavs, Baby-Bulls, Tanking-Atlanta, Melo-OKC...Spurs already beat Wolves...Pels? Nah.
I say Spurs lose just one game. Grizz on the road.
11-1
I'm so optimistic this morning. I had a dream about a Warriors-Spurs game where Matt Bonner dunks over Dray and KD...Don't ask why but it happened...I woke up laughing.

That's one ing horrible contract
Only one of those players doesn't belong.
Think he would still be serviceable somewhere, but he looked bad the one game he played with the Lakers. Who needs a three or small ball four?That's one ing horrible contract
Pelicans! They are starting Cunningham at the 3.
After December 15th, Deng and Clarkson for Mills and Gasol.
Just ing around, Deng's contract and diminishing skills makes me want to throw up to the point that I would rather keep Gasol.
And you say the Pelicans, but who would NO give up and the Lakers even want back in return. The corpse of Asik + filler?
Agree - I think the Lakers will have to give up Randle or similar value to move Deng. If he had one year after this it'd be different.After December 15th, Deng and Clarkson for Mills and Gasol.

I was thinking after buyout. I think it's almost impossible to move that contract. One of the worst of all time imoAfter December 15th, Deng and Clarkson for Mills and Gasol.

It cost them D'Bust to get rid of Mozgov's contract. This one is a bit worse but I think the Lakers buy Deng out before attaching an asset to dump him.
I think if they can't get a buyout done, they just waive and stretch him. But even then will take a chunk of cap. But dang though what a time to be an NBA player that year. Mozgov and Deng both made like bandits and on one team no less.
But the Lakers got a draft pick that turned into Kuzma and Brook Lopez for Mozgov and Russell. So at first it looked like Brooklyn won the deal but the way Kooze been playing it's starting to look like LA got the better deal. Overall it was a pretty good trade for both sides just Mozgov salary dump attached to Russell somehow turned pretty good. Magic doing well so far with what Mitch left him.

I think he's a bad fit in Milwaukee. Good deal for Phoenix though. They have too many centers now and the Bucks have too many PGs.
Good haul considering situation.
If Pau were still an expiring (gonna continue to keep that fantasy alive), I'd love for Monroe to go to SA after being bought out. He's not the passer Gasol is, and he's not a mobile defender. But dude knows how to score and isn't afraid to show that knowledge off. That makes him have a higher floor than Pau with the potential of him being retained. However, with the current roster, I'd rather hold out that David Lee will be back than sign another center.
Where is David Lee? Is he still recovering from his injury or is he done as a player?
Last I saw he got engaged. He might be seriously considering retirement.
Not great, but more often than not, talent trumps fit and these days, if you're serious about winning, you need at least two All-Star caliber or better perimeter players. This is something most relevant or trying to be relevant teams understand, with Spurs being the obvious exception. Also, Bledsoe should shoot slightly better with more spot up looks playing off of Antetokounmpo.
Bucks don't have too many PG's because Brogdon was always more of an SG and Dellavedova is really a combo guard too.
Suns definitely have too many C's, but Monroe likely isn't long for them.
Take it for what it's worth, but someone on reddit in the Bay Area said a local radio personality close to Lee was texting him on the air about his future in the NBA. It seemed like Lee was content moving on with life traveling around the world with his wife, and that he doesn't really have a desire to play anymore. With that, his age, and coming off a serious injury, it would seem that his playing days are over.
Either way, it's time to move on from speculating abour Lee.
