Nice, I love it when something is more than just something else!

Shot looks smooth.

That's his private workout except from :53 to 1:00 which is clearly John Salmons.

I think the Vegas part of it is cool. People will go to watch. I just can’t picture players playing as hard as a playoff game. Probably be more like an all star game where they don’t get serious until the very end.

The Championship is December 9 so before the recently signed restriction ends

Ok so GMs going to be nervously pacing the sideline hoping the guy they want to trade doesn’t get hurt in a meaningless game

But, it still counts as a regular season game.

I was thinking more about KP fitting in with the Celtics today and was reminded of this masterpiece, back when he was on the Knicks:

Best Buck's Shooting Guard for the last 10 years

So Bucks were colossal morons to let him go and he's some star, yet he's played in a total of 11 games the last two seasons since then. Hey late bloomers happen and maybe he'll find a bench niche, and I'm all about shooting but as of now there is no reason to beleive he'll be any kind of meaningful nba contributor, especially on a contending team.

It is not just the Bucks that are *orons,
The hate on Steph Curry and all his shooting skill "ruining" the NBA narrative over the last 10 years has ruined the usage of players like Sam Merrill and Bryn Forbes. Same *orons keep drafting high players that are great athletes and touched the basketball at the age of 16-17 with zero footwork skills and shooting.

I don't believe that the success of Steph Curry has led to a devaluation of shooting.

Yes that is one of the most nonsensical posts I've ever read

How special was Utah State Sam Merrill? 20 ppg in the Mountain West. Not too many can say they did that.

Okay but if we didnt trade Merrill we probably dont sign AJ "future all star" Green, yeah?
