  1. The signings of Mo Bamba and James Wiseman proved my daddy’s words of wisdom to be correct. He said “son, if you are 7 feet tall you can get paid to play basketball, even if you can’t play basketball”.
  2. The other 2nd was indeed from charlotte for green.
  3. Jesus will come in the form of a giant asteroid and all the religious crazies will celebrate by driving their f-350s into the Atlantic Ocean in Missouri. All is well.
  4. Lavine and a top 3 protected first in 2027 for Keldon. Would the spurs say no?’ Lavine is technically the better player. The spurs would think they have a couple of chances to flip him for even more assets. If they could rehab his image they should be able to get 1 or 2 more firsts for him. Worst case in 2 years they drop him to someone as an expiring before paying Wemby the super fun max.
  5. Dallas is absolutely killing it. Don’t sleep on Grimes. He is much better than green imo.
  6. It was pretty cheap, maybe they are hoping to rehab his image a bit and flip him at the deadline.
  7. My step father is 6 months younger than Biden and has had his iPad missing for the past 3 months because he forgot where he hid it so the cleaning lady’s kids wouldn’t steal it (note, the cleaning lady hasn’t brought her kids in more than 20 years). Before the iPad it was his wallet which was hidden in the tool chest in the garage. He also tells me the same story almost every time I talk to him, “did you know your brother in law died?” He also sleeps about 20 hours a day.
  8. So in total. For Burke and Bogy the pistons got: THJ, Malachi Flynn and 4 second round picks. Much better than the 1-2 1st rounders they were offered before…
  9. Biden has done a really good job and mostly restored America’s place in the world. But he simply can’t run this time. If he wins, he would be 86 years old at the end of the term. There is no possible way an 86 year old can do the duties he is required. This is just the nature of the human condition. Not one of here would want an 80+ year old boss. And Harris isn’t the answer. 99% of America (and the world) couldn’t pick her out of a lineup. The fate of democracy is at stake. I hope Joe will do the right thing…
  10. We are going to start seeing some 56/44 type polls for Trump in the upcoming weeks. The dems need to get on top of this shit fast.
  11. Tyler Smith seems like a Raptors kind of dude and he’s teed up for them.
  12. He had a 42 inch vertical at the combine and was the best shooter.
  13. Bam getting 55m a year. Do teams not understand the salary cap and aprons? I’m really fucking confused. Who? Only 4 teams have space
  14. 40m a year to be the #4 guy (at best). Am I living in bizzaro world?
  15. Since OG opted out that means he can’t be sign and traded right? That leaves only a few teams that could sign him as a FA. Why would any of those teams with cap space want to pay him $35m to be a number 3 or 4 guy? I could see doing 4 years, $100m. But 4/140? Nah…
  16. I don’t give a fuck about the stats. Jordan was the best defensive guard I’ve ever seen and probably the best defensive player. He literally made dudes cry and ruined careers.
  17. He has a higher ceiling but much lower floor. Donte's floor is already - solid rotation player.
  18. Caruso is also an Aggie. And getting rid of them is never a bad move.
  19. Yeah -- Chicago is under no obligation to pay Giddy a fun max off the rookie deal. If he has a decent year they could go with something like a 3/60m offer. If he has a great year then that is a good problem to have. They can always let him try restricted FA and match or not. They were going to lose Caruso anyway, so even if he walks it's not the end of the world. The more I think about it, the more I like it for the Bulls. Now if they can get rid of Vuch and Lavine, they might be on to something.
  20. You can probably count the number of 21 year olds who have had great playoff performances for a #1 seed on 1 or less fingers. And he was 9-18 from 3 against the Pels in round 1. My math says that is 50%. He was also 37% from 3 over his last 20 games of the season.
  21. Giddy is 21 years old. He shot 80% from the line (meaning he can shoot) and 52% from 2. He is 14/7/6 for his career in heavy minutes. It’s a W for both teams.
  22. Maybe combine the threads NBA 24-25 Off Season (Trades, FA, etc) https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink/topic?share_fid=2053247&share_tid=35750&url=https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/index.php?/topic/35750-NBA-24-25-Off-Season-%28Trades%2C-FA%2C-etc%29&share_type=t&link_source=app
  23. There is only 1 player that the mavs (or any other team) would trade Luka for.
  24. Horford one of the few to win 2 ncaa titles and an NBA ring. Great career
