  1. I know they want to play to the positive but it was wild how they were acting like so many of these kids are stars in waiting. I'm not even sold on Scoot. Not knowing not being impressed by 75% of the kids makes the draft wholly uninteresting to me now. Also I clearly dont know what NBA teams are looking for now other than seemingly skill-less measurables that they can teach to play the way they want them to play. For instance, I know the PG from Kansas St is small but he's a fucking baller but he wasnt even picked yet guys like Jett Howard and Kobe Bufkin who barely know how to play IMO are lottery picks.
  2. My crew and I have a saying for it. "The numbers are there. Someone has to get them" Going to be something like when Jerry Stackhouse avg'd 30 for a 20 win Pistons team
  3. I'm not sure why but the closer we get to the draft the more I feel like Scoot Henderson is just a new version of Eric Bledsoe
  4. If that was the case I'd imagine they could get something better than one of the worst contracts out there. Then again we are getting closer to the point where his contract is not quite that bad considering this is the last guaranteed yr. Still I'd think they could get something better for Poole. Even coming off that shitty postseason.
  5. And I have a feeling he will be just fine with that Holy shit! its done.
  6. Then mission accomplished. This is a full on tank job
  7. One is 25 this yr and they are giving up 35 so they are moving up 10 spots. The 2nd pick is GSW's so it will probably be pretty late next yr too. Still interesting to get picks along with what most would think is the best player in the trade.
  8. It was Brogdon needing elbow surgery.
  9. Wow, I'm thinking they couldnt get Kristaps to opt in without getting an extension.
  10. Well they already told him he was gonna be gone but it is pretty wack to not let him know that they were exploring trade options as well
  11. This is my biggest issue. They lost in very large part because they had no depth at all after the KD trade. Now I will say they really didnt give up anything to get Beal but the larger issue is that Beal takes up 50M of cap space. Book, Beal and KD will take up about 150M right? Add in Ayton's money and they are up around 175M? How can they field any kind of depth with the entire cap tied up in 4 guys and a new CBA that gives them less possibilities to operate over way over the cap
  12. Probably costs him more than that because he'll be ineligible for All NBA. Yep, I'm sure that was a consideration with the new mandate for eligibility for post season awards.
  13. Exactly this. The NBAPA would be all over that shit as they should. Yeah he was stupid as hell. Even moreso when you factor in his team trying to say the gun was a toy but nothing he did was illegal.
  14. Yep, for as stupid as the shit was there is no reason for him to get more than 20. And even that is just because he's fucking stupid not really because the actual action. And now the league has the benefit of the outrage dying down some. Give him 20 gms and this isnt really a story again until the season starts
  15. Correct. They just aint found the person willing to pay them what they want........or they aint missed enough rent payments LOL
  16. He's also the floppingest of flopping bitches
  17. Disagree completely. They dont even use him a PG for one thing but more importantly, he is the heart of that team. And I say that despite hating the guy and pretty much everything he stands for LOL
  18. From what I read, she's "in the business" too. He loves porn chicks apparently.
  19. I truly hope for his sake she just crazying and he wasnt fucking with her. She is all kinds of nasty...........and not in the good way
  20. Most of the time defenders were staying home on shooters and letting Jokic work 1:1 with whoever was guarding him. There were a lot of mismatches where he bullied one of the guards but they only get 2 pts out of those possessions. Almost none of the wide open 3s that they are used to getting. Its a great plan. It helps when you are on fire on the other end too to keep the pressure on them. Will be interesting to see what adjustments DEN makes to get their shooters some looks.
  21. Its pretty amazing how bad he is particularly when you consider it was a major criticism last season. One would hope he would have put in some serious work on his handle and came back much tighter this season but nope
