It’s being reported that the Heat might be willing to trade Jimmy Butler and the Rockets are being prominently mentioned as a destination. Thoughts?

Exporting our shitty food to Italy, nice! USA! USA!

Being both a GM and an Ambassador didn't work out well for Woody Johnson's team.  Hopefully UH suffers more than the Rockets.

Would have to be something like:

Green
Brooks
Whitmore
+ picks

No thanks, he’s had a good start to the season but hasn’t had his inevitable 20-30 games of injury and he’s not the floor spacer a Green replacement needs to be.  Keep holding out for Booker and a Suns collapse in ‘26 or the Pacers get dumb and want to move on from Halliburton.

So I just truly don’t understand this NBA Cup stuff.
So it’s a tournament within the season?
Yes.

Quick rundown....each conference drawn into 3 groups those groups play each other on tuesdays and fridays.....top records within those 6 groups move on to this round....one wild card from each conference moves on (whoever has next best record then highest pt differential....there are more tiebreakers but not needed)

Now it is 4 teams each conference with 2 best seeds hosting.....winners of the 4 games go to Vegas where 2 winners from West play and the 2 from East play. Then those winners play for the nba cup title.

Players who win the cup get like 500K bonus. Then it goes down from there for everyone else.

Unique opinion: the NBA is unbearable, even when my team is winning. Pro basketball lost me. It’s probably keeping them up at night.

Lemme guess - you think compared to the glory days of the 80s nobody plays defense and fundamentals like ball handling and free throw shooting are way worse than they used to be…

I’m only speaking from a subjective judgement of entertainment vale, nothing more. Also, high.
