Around the NBA III

[and1GS]

I'd trade both Bogut & Ezeli for Biyombo right now without blinking.

He blocks shots like prime Dikembe. Doesn't play scared. Doesn't pick up dumb fouls. Plays great defense. Plays 40+min a night. People are scared to drive because of him.

Keep in mind that Bismack doesn't need to play any 1:1 defense against the Cavs. Tristan just boards and Kevin is a perimeter player. Phenomenal timing on his blocks (reminds me of Oden in his prime), but as an every day center he's shaky at 6'9" with no discernible offensive skillset.

His responsibilities right now are a lot like what Amare did with the Suns. Roam around. Block shots. Play help defense. Not taking anything away from his incredible play, but it's clearly situation based IMO.

Begs the question...why can't he replicate that situation in GS......**** you might be right hahaha, he could be a great fit for us.

man cleveland's yellow shirts for their fans are getting too similar to the warriors. It's not even the 1st or 2nd main color in their colorway xD. i guess they can't have their fans wearing poo colored shirts.

Seems like "believeland" is getting alittle too much inspiration from the We Believe Warriors.

I wonder what kind of fit D'Antoni is going to be for the Rockets? I really don't see Harden buying in, if it doesn't suit hm, there won't be any respect there.

[Mamba Mentality]

How the **** does D'Antoni keep getting coaching gigs? His brand of basketball no longer works in the NBA.

Still can't figure out what HB was thinking turning down 64 million, to be playing on a team that has a minimum four year window?

There was no reason to take it.

If he's about the money he can make more hitting free agency, if he's about winning taking the extension would have just made him a trade asset for the W's in their hunt for Durant (it was somewhat realistic at the time), by not taking the extension either he secured more money if the former is true or he kept control over his own destiny if the latter was.

I know he is injury prone but id love to see Joel Embiid in a warriors shirt if we can do a deal for him

He's probably still years away IF he ever gets to rotation level. We need win now.

I think if he stays fit he could be a top NBA player in next few years, he will be better than Nerlens Noel imo, but i know what you mean, Myers said we will draft someone who can play next season and expecta Looney to play too

Rose is now a Knick, Teague a Pacer and Hill and Jazz. Already a lot of movement going on. I expect Love and Butler to be moved soon. Love might be delayed, but Boston is still really interested and even after winning the championship, I think the Cavs are willing to move on.

I read this morning that the Cavs weren't interested in moving Love...And considering how far his stock has dropped the last couple years, I doubt we'll see any crazy enough offers to entice Cleveland into trading him. I don't see any major moving parts for them.

They got another easy side to the Finals and NBA has already intervened to help them so they could probably be competitive against any WC team.

Rose to the Knicks is a classic Knickers move. Ho hum.

They might add Dwight to that mix as well.

The NY media will have a field day next season tearing into the Rose and Melo crap fest about to unfold. Add Dwight to that as well? Calamity.

Dwight/Rose/Melo is my dream team. They'll just barely make it to the playoffs, then implode fantastically on a national stage.

BIG APPLE BABY!!!

Don't forget it's the East. And don't forget they'll have Porzingas.

So I think they make the playoffs for sure. But yeah it will be fun to watch it unfold. Even though Rose is a shell of his former self, he is a leader, so who knows.

[kaiballz]

its east so its irrelevant to us as they aren't getting past the cavs anyway. so therefore, i'm all for it, for the added drama. also, its a nice team on paper

Might be good, the Cavs are centered around LeBron attacks and the Knicks would have good interior defense with Dwight. After seeing Biyombo killing Thompson on the boards and switching on everyone I'm amazed were not all in on him.
