Man, in that championship, the savage speeders looked VERY fast...like way faster than the other marbles....and then pinkies came out of nowhere. Good race.

But has a ridiculous 7'5 wingspan, and decent mechanics to further develop his shot out to the three. Right now, The bulls are making him play the 5 spot. However, He insists that his natural/ best position is at the 4. He's averaging 11/9/ 2 assists. But I think he could have solid defensive potential in the post. Now he wouldn't be above Markannen and/or Gordon on my list, But if the Bulls are looking to move him, maybe we could snag him on the cheap??

I like WCJ a lot. Loved him in that draft. He's got a lot of Al Horford to him, who has not fit very well next to Embiid, but might fit pretty well next to Ayton. WCJ and Ayton are both pretty decent at defending the perimeter and inside, so shouldn't face any major mismatch problems from teams trying to go big or small. Neither is a floor stretcher yet, so spacing would be an issue at least at first, but both have developing jumpers. What do you all think?

Just checking in... saying hi to all

Stay safe stay healthy

Kind of slow with no sports and only the football draft but who knows what will happen with NBA

When draft and free agency rumors start, will be back

Peace all!

Booker doesn't want to pick the Suns in NBA 2K tourneyWhen choosing teams, Michael Porter Jr. suggests doing Nuggets vs. Suns and Devin Booker isn't having it.

Video of conversation here.. (scroll down) https://www.espn.com/esports/story/_/id/29013831/rating-nba-2k20-tournament-players-gamer-setups

So Booker picks the Mavs and is playing as Doncic.

And he's even arguing with the refs in NB2K....yelling at the screen that he didn't touch it out of bounds.

How does this affect our potential free agency and trade plans?

I know the world is in peril right now BUT THIS A BASKETBALL FOURM!!! LOL That said, with all this idle time, I sure hope Cam is taking the opportunity to clang some IRON in his down time. Would be awesome to see him especially, but also Bridges and Ayton add some man mover in the couple months of interim offseason.

This is comical. Players used to and some still do go out to the dance clubs, strip clubs, parties and get hammered the night before games....and here you are complaining that our guys stay in their hotel playing video games?!?!? You have guys going out and banging every piece of ass that they can and ending up with 7 kids by 6 different baby mamas. You got players that just recently retired talking about how they would drink and smoke pot before games and at halftime.....but NOPE, video games are the problem and at the root of us not winning as many games as you would like.

Seriously, this is a sad hill to see you die upon.

Would you prefer a regular season from Christmas to late June and playoffs late June to late August?
