2025-2026: Around the League

[GelbeWand09]

Victor start of a season:

33,3 ppg
13,3 rpg
2,3 apg
6,0 bpg
1,7 steals
0,7 TOs

64% TS
16,1 BPM

He’s insane.

And I’ve been saying now that the Spurs are 3 steps above Orlando in terms of potential and prospects. The rich get richer.

Wemby was 4 days to young to be in the Paolo draft.

When it it’s time for the League to expand and if they do add two new teams to Vegas and Seattle that means two Western Conference teams will become Eastern Conference teams to balance out the conferences.

I know geographically New Orleans and Memphis make the most sense BUT is that in the best interest of the League and/or competitive balance?


Would a more attractive option be Oklahoma City becoming an Eastern Conference power so the League can promote Spurs VS Thunder in the NBA Finals? Those two franchises seem to be on a collision course no matter what for the Finals so would they want just one of those teams in or both in together.

Wemby was 4 days to young to be in the Paolo draft.

And we had 9% chance to land Wemby in 2023. Not really much lower than the Spurs. Certainly higher than the Spurs chance to also land Harper this year Harper had 20-6-8 on 11 shots yesterday and was +33.

I think Paolo can be very good still, some people think he will be elite, but to me it seems like a longshot he becomes a Luka/Wemby type franchise changing player. Weltman has done a lot wrong, but sometimes that's just the luck of things, we are capped if Paolo doesn't improve a lot and I don't feel like there is much you can do about it.

Also ready for lottery conspiracies next year with what looks to be a top 3 for the ages for anyone keeping up with what Boozer, Peterson and Dybantsa have shown in exhibition games. Celtics 0-3 right now.... Pacers 0-3 traded a late pick last year to get their pick back this year.. Pelicans man... They could have had two cracks at top 3, instead they will have none.
