i don't know that they'll win but they'll probably be there. durant was our chance and we almost had him. might be another decade or 2 before we find another guy like that who wants to come. steve mills blew it.


Durant is great, but lawd it would have been excruciating trying to root for Kyrie. Even if they went all the way here it wouldn't feel like a Knicks championship to me, just a rented monstrosity.


It couldn’t be any worse than rooting for elfrid Payton!!!!!!!!!!

You might be onto something. Is that sustainable or an empty stats guy though?

I don’t really see him as an empty stats guy. The Bulls outside of him is just very bad. He’s doing a great job carrying them the best he can imo. I think Thibs can turn him into a winner.

I’m sold on Lonzo jumper and think it’s get better next season. I’m still on board with him as a FA target.

Elfrid Payton is a saint compared to Kryie Irving

Coby white is 4-9 but it feels like he’s 4/15. I can’t stand his game

I respect Philly for keeping both homegrown stars as this how I want teams to build but I think passing on Harden will be remembered as a massive blunder.

Not only would he have elevated their ceiling, Harden has now turned a direct Eastern Conference rival into the favorites to make the Finals, and it's not even close anymore.

Philly's mistake isn't that they could've been better as much as they allowed their competition to get significantly better.

When Embiid is locked in, he’s the best center in the league imo

Seeing Lavine's trade value go up and up makes me sad.

It was obvious he was gonna become a star.

Guys who improve year after year are dangerous. I guess Randle fits that description too, minus the Fizz hell.

Lavine took off after they got rid of Boylen. Same way with Randle and Fizdale. Boylen and Fiz were the worst coaches in the league by far. The crazy part is that Billy Donovan isn’t that good of a coach either. It just shows how bad Boylen was :lol:
