It will be better as a whole because we will be acting with empathy towards others, even if we dont agree with their opinion. Who are we to think we have the absolute truth in our hands? our own opinions are based on what? numbers? what we sometimes call facts? sometimes numbers do not give you an accurate picture on a player, this is just an example. As per a chamber of emotional grievances, i just dont see it that way, everybody is pretty cool here and even if some comments might sound a little crazy its all good at the end.

I am an adult and operate with respect and identify the difference between the two
Calling an opinion nonsensical, is basically calling the poster ridicuolously impractical ( as per the dictionary ) I am not here to judge as you conduct yourself here, in fact this will be my last post regarding this. But i wanted to make an observation and bring it up to you.

Wow my use of the word "nonsensical" with regards to people misplacing their frustration really triggered you.

I'd be disingenuous if I apologized, because I don't see how I did anything wrong. I appreciate all your sentiments about empathy.

But put on your damn big boy pants on a sports forum.

Have a great day, my friend. This is all in good fun.

Not triggered Greg, if that is the way you see more power to you.

You just made my day with this one, especially coming from you.
No further comments.

Days is very intriguing. I wish there were more cutups highlighting his defense. How switchable is he really? Does he have the feet to consistently switch on the perimeter? If he can hone in on that, I think there's plenty to work with on all other fronts. As much as I despise Grant Williams, that is the comparison I can come up with for him. Solid frontcourt depth piece for playoff ball if he can fill that role.

I still very much think that he may be our best offensive player next season. He will be motivated and healthy. He is a better all around shooter than Jimmy and more explosive. Jimmy is better at drawing fouls. I think if he isn't above Jimmy offensively, he will be right there with him. This is assuming he actually gets a role in our offense.

I don't know if Brooklyn would, but I would do that.

Brooklyn trying to drive up the price for KD. Boston trying to make we don’t get KD discounted. Win Win for both conference rivals

Going a little further on Days, I'm hopeful that his spot 3 point shooting is legit. He actually was the primary source of 3-point shooting for his LSU squad this past season. He averaged 6 3PA per game and the next highest after him was Brandon Murray at 3.6 3PA per game.

52% of Days' FGA this past season were 3s.

The prior season 54% of his FGAs were 3s and he shot them at a great 40% clip. He had more NBA level talent around him that season and wasn't relied upon to be the team's source of spacing.

I'd have to imagine that this past season Days was the recipient of quite a few hot-potato sequences where he's forced to serve as the offense's release valve and put up a 3 when they weren't generating offense.

Id add all picks available if boston is crazy enough to deal with us. Nets receive six total

Just got off the phone Saucess, quick update.

Brooklyn is using the Boston offer as the best standing offer to beat, however this offer does not include Smart, looks like Boston has yet to give in Brooklyns request. Miami on the other hand, has not given in to giving up Bam as well. Instead they had a deal in place to give up struss for an added pick not previously shown to brooklyn, which is the current offer in place as of this afternoon. At this point Miami is at an end for adding any further picks or assets, management feels this is the best they can do. They will not gut the available depth to get Durant. If Boston gives in they could take Durant which is why Miami went to their last avenue. Bam is a hard no, from our top executive, they will bypass Durant trade before getting rid of Bam.

So KD to Boston is going to happen

Thanks for the update ICC. ...Good news and bad news here, IMO. No way I would part with Bam either, and it is good to know team is for certain not going to do so for Durant. Bad news is Durant is headed elsewhere now unless he comes out and says he explicitly wants Miami only which he obviously does not. So Boston already tops our best offer, so we are now unofficially out.

yeah seems kd to Boston is likely

So Boston got KD. I hope this org pivots to Kyrie.
