Lauri must be one of the unnamed circles southwest of Montrezl. He's at 62.5 eFG%, but with only 240 shots due to him being out so much.

Thadgic is at 61.4 eFG% with 317 shots, so he also is just southwest of Montrezl.

Wouldn't mind picking up DJ Augustin if he gets waived. We could use a professional PG in the back up PG position.

That’s a great trade for Houston

76ers defense is suffocating. Starting to really think they can win it all. Bucks have 24 points with 5 minutes left in the 2nd

Augustin is under contract through next season with a partial guarantee for 22/23. The Rockets waiving him or buying him out doesn't seem likely right now.

A Jrue/DDV/Middleton/Tucker/Giannis lineup sounds super fun with tons of defensive potential, I hope they try that to go away from the drop defense at times. Adds a lot of flexibility for the postseason for sure.

I still don't think they're quite there yet. They still only have 6 guys I'd trust in the playoffs and could still desperately need someone who can create his own shot off the bench. I hope they're not done yet.

Great deal for Houston though. Rafael Stone is doing a great job considering the circumstances IMO.

Rafael Stone is doing work while AK is Paxson JR sucking on his thumb and doing nothing.

We have to a shock the world type of win at some point. Beating Denver or Utah or both would help put us on the map. If the Wiz could beat Utah, so could we in my opinion.

And I knew that Atlanta would start winning once they got a new coach. They have won 7 straight now.

I find it so unbelievable that we as a team havent even gotten a 4 game win streak in 4 seasons. I mean even the worst teams have managed to stumble onto a 4 game win streak. Cant even do that.

Thank you John Paxson for that wonderful pick! Would love to compare Carter Jr. stats over the last 5 games.

Anthony Edwards has a 40 piece.

As I have said people have zero patience. A month or so ago, people were saying he aint it. Dude has been ballin for the past 2 months

Minnesota needs Edwards to become the face of that franchise. He's got to help elevate them.

They were my biggest surprise this season, along with Phoenix (in the opposite direction). I was a Hawk booster from Day 1, even though some of their vets are washed that team still seemed to have too much talent not to make the Eastern playoffs. Probably directly, as opposed to the play-in.

As you write, Lloyd Pierce has some answering to do. That was one coaching change that was very much due.
