So, did Jalen not want to be apart of Team USA?

what a bummer for GSW. they played a great second half of the season, just to completely stink it up in the play-in game.
at least I don't have to watch OKC-NO/Sac now. was already worried how to watch so many playoff games coming up :lol:

Maybe Steph will demand to be traded, not gonna be surprised his wish list would include Hornets and Knicks... he'd be the Dame of this summer.


Steph can still have productive years well past Dame's expiration date

Gotta pick the Kings over NO

SAC/OKC could be a good series

LAL/DEN also could be pretty entertaining

Playoffs this year feel like most series are going to be up for grabs unless there is a team that shows dominance. I don't expect it from the Celtics like some do. Even if they go to the Finals they're going to be tested. I also think the Nuggets are going to have to fight hard to repeat

I did jump the gun a bit, but keep your eyes peeled for the the official press release announcing TheBuzzardMan's acquisition of and merging with Besart. No cash was exchanged, just a pure equity swap with Besart getting a fistful of feathers and apocalyptic one-liners.

Zion was killing the Lakers until he got injured. Lakers were on the ropes and that's with Zion's teammates playing (mostly) like trash.

I'd still consider Randle for Zion... That boy wants to come home and, perhaps, he'll shed some more weight in NY.

No way Pels would consider that trade though tbh.

Availability is greater then ability. Which is why I will pass on Zion.

I think they trade Zion within the next 2-24 months. Not sure to where though.

on the zion front.. i was on board with gambling on him for the longest but now it kind of feels we’re in a position of strength where we can somewhat be choosy about who to pursue..he wouldn’t be my first choice

Yup... great position to be in. Maybe Spida, Giannis, Booker, Mikal, or Zion will shake free... we just stand by and watch.

I think GSW should below it up completely this off-season but somehow I doubt they will...
