2021 - 2022 Dallas Mavericks: The Vibes are Immaculate
Mavs need to keep Brunson, jettison Hardaway, and pick up a stretch big that can contribute on defense. Bonus points if they can find a Derrick Jones Jr type guy with mad athleticism and reasonable defensive effort on a cheap deal. Montrezl Harrell would be a great pickup for the Mavs and should be their primary offseason target, imo. As for unrestricted free agent centers, as listed by Spotrac, Nurkic, Drummond, Tristan Thompson, and maybe Mitchell Robinson would be the "headliners". Looking at restricted free agents and guys with player options who might opt out, you've got Ayton, Mo Bamba, and the rapidly fading mirage of potential for Bol Bol. I don't really know why Spotrac lists Bol Bol as a center as I don't believe he's ever actually manned the 5 spot, but whatever. Valenciunas already signed an extension through 2024.

Ben Simmons has gotten a lot of shit, and rightfully so. I'm on record as saying I don't think his basketball skills are good enough to put up with his bitchassery. I do have to give him credit in one thing though. He has not popped off in the media about this shit. You never hear Embiid or Doc's names come out of his mouth.

Yeah that was entirely on Lue. He bet that Luka would not aggressively try to consume Zubac's soul, but he lost that bet. By a lot.

San Antonio Spurs 2021-22 Season Thread - Let's get this play-in shitshiw rolling
Forgot he was on an expiring contract. Which I guess was the point for Portland as they've entered the tank race. FWIW, I don't think the trade does anything of value for the Spurs. I guess they might turn Satoransky into something or just free up cap space next year by letting him walk, but they have a roster full of late-first and second round talent. The only way for them to advance the team is to move into top 10 talent. Not sure anything they've done gets them closer to that goal.

I get it's a business but fuck Utah for trading Ingles after he gets hurt like this. Not like the pieces they're getting are going to move the needle for their playoff run.

All these moves so far just feel like GMs mistaking movement for progress.

One late round first and two seconds for the Spurs best player? Are you high? I know you said some other players but they were all trash filler and not worth discussing.

Houston is not playing wall because they want to lose. The Lakers are benching Russ because they want to win. If they can swing it the Lakers should definitely make that deal.

Memphis has a championship core in place. Rather than rolling the dice on draft picks I'd like to see them focus on keeping Ja, Jaren Jackson, and Clarke together for the next 2-4 years. If I'm the Memphis GM I see if I can send #12 and filler to Portland for Dame. If he gets healthy and regains his scoring form you've got a guy that can lead the team when Ja is resting and keep heat off him when they play together. Doesn't do much for you on defense but if he is nothing more than a rich man's Lou Williams it could be enough to get this team to the next level.

All due respect to Dominique, but Ja truly deserves the Human Highlight Reel moniker. Dude is unreal.

People not caring about the Suns is not equivalent to underrating them. I mean, fuck Chris Paul and Devin Booker has a punchable face are about the only things I care to say about them. They're a great team and have a legit shot at the trophy. What else is there to say?

Yeah, it's hard to blame Nash right now. The nets have 1 top-10, 2 top-20, and 4 top 80 or so players on their roster (LMA has been that good for them). After that they have nothing. Blake Griffin is like a pair of $250 Chinese chest high waders that you only need to use four times a year but they leak every single time and have no warranty. Joe Harris is like the $250 chest high waders you order from Amazon, made in America but you had a coupon, but the package never showed up. They've gotten surprising production from Olympics brand Patty Mills, like they ordered a pair of $250 Chinese chest high waders but the box contained a pair of $800 American chest high waders with a lifetime warranty. The rest of the roster just sucks. So then you get KD injured, Kyrie only available part time, Harden either in permanent decline or playing through injury, and LMA getting dinged up and the result is like a pair of $100 Malaysian chest high waders with no warranty that you could use as coffee filters they leak so much.

Seriously? The preceding discussion was guys shooting the shit about Kevin Love's relative value to the Cavs and whether their management was making a mistake not unloading him. It wasn't about the fishing waders in the slightest.

"Worth" is not an objective calculation. He is worth what someone will pay him, which is apparently twenty-eight million American dollars.
