Happy for Charlotte for finally landing another star for the city. Lamelo will attract players to play there.

He is a STUD. He’s already so good and it’s scary to think what his ceiling even his. 6’8 point guards don’t grow on trees. His brother (my favourite ball brother) has also been coming along recently. I love Lonzo but he lacks the fire that melo plays with, but seems like having his little bro lighting up the league has lit a little spark in zo as well.

I’m going to forever wonder what a lineup of steph melo and klay could’ve looked like.

We would need to get wing defenders for our bench for sure, but Warriors would have to elite play makers in Green & Lamelo paired with the greatest shooting backcourt in the history of the NBA. Melo would be aggressive enough to keep the defense honest.

We saw Melo's defense when Charlotte played at Chase.

Something like 18 Oubre dunks with Lamelo following him and taking the ball out lol

But seriously I’m loving watching Ball play. He’s fun as heck. Can’t stand those uni’s though.

It’s been fun watching Seth Curry develop into an elite 3pt shooter and reliable guard.

I remember thinking he could be a Eddie House type scorer off the bench early in his career. Happy to see him find his way.

He still struggles against complicated offenses like our's, but he is not that bad at all against most teams defensively. He has very good off-ball awareness for his age, and as he fills out his frame I expect him to become adequate enough on-ball as well.

[code][/code]How’s Gallanari with the Hawks? Never seen the Hawks play this season. He’s avg 21mpg and 11 points on 38% from 3.

Seems underwhelming stat line for $20mil a year, but like I said I haven’t watched the games.

If Blake Griffin is bought out, I'd be very interested in adding him somehow. He's not perfect, but damn he'd be a huge playmaking forward upgrade from everything we got. Imagine him coming off the bench next season to run a high post playmaking role to help lead the 2nd unit around. It'd be good for him and keep his body fairly fresh as opposed to a heavy starters role. Shooters working off him could be great.

Curry / Poole / Mannion
Klay / Lee / Jessup / Mulder
Wiggins / Oubre / JTA / Bazemore
Green / Griffin / Paschall
Wiseman / Looney

+ draft picks if we get em.

I have no idea how he gets bought out and what he might be wanting for his next move. We could be a really good landing spot for him to take the Paschall role though.

Nets are grabbing him.

I really want the Nets to win the Championship and run through the playoffs.

Griffin & Jordan back together haha.

He got robbed first round and then stupidly stopped trying his good dunk in round 2. Such an underwhelming performance lol.

yeah his performance was no bueno! Glad he got his name out there even if it was for that. I think his future can be bright in the league

I blame Cdubbz....He already got Cole Anthony injured....and now this for Stanley.

Hopefully you can rescind your love for Nico before it’s to late!

Dang! I guess this is the price to pay for being in the Lamelo cult. All my other favorite guards get injured.

I hereby riscind my fandom for Nico Mannion! My fandom now has moved to Brad Wanamaker.

Meyers Leonard getting cancelled. Used a racist word on live twitch stream.

how do you feel about this?

I think it's a jump to say he's cancelled. He's getting rightly condemned. It's very possible he'll get suspended, if not get cut. Mind you, the Heat owner is Israeli-American and it's not like Leonard is an indispensable piece for the Heat.

But even if he does get cut or disciplined in some significant way, I assure you he won't be "cancelled." The joke of all the cancel culture stuff that conservatives whip up a frenzy about is that the "cancelled" almost always have a very large platform and get an even bigger one after they say whatever abhorrent thing they said. So if Leonard gets cut, you can expect he'll have plenty of people on his side after an appearance on Tucker Carlson or a podcast with Ben Shapiro or Candace Owens.

As for his actions. Well, all he had to do was... not use a slur against Jews in a livestream. If my job required me to be good at basketball and also keep my public image clean by avoiding the use of offensive slurs against marginalized communities, I think it would be pretty easy for me to not go around calling people k*kes on a live stream of me playing a video game.

Amen to this. And to all the "OMG cancel culture" arguments. People don't get cancelled, they get judged and called out for doing something or saying something. If enough people are upset, it has an impact on the careers and lives of the people called out. We've been doing it for centuries, it just happens faster now.
