Masai woulda been the goat if he got us the pacers pick this year

pacers couldnt trade it bc they gave us their pick last draft.

Keegan Murray is looking like a bust these days while Sacramento sits in 12th place. You guys remember when they refused to include him in a Siakam trade?

Haliburton should be getting torn to shreds in the media. What a collapse.

Are the Pacers really paying this dude $50 million???? wow

I don't want to hear that he's injured either. He got his All-NBA and money, and he's out there playing so we can assume he's fine. He doesn't seem injured when he has time for that show, and WWE. He also looks pretty spry and nimble when he prances around after making a big 3 (although that has happened very few times this season).

The injury excuse is comical. He's had two minor muscle strains in the past twelve months. Neither one required surgery or significant time off. It's literally the most common sports injury. That should not be throwing off his game.

Supermax for 17 pts, 8 assists, 3 rebounds and 42% shooting...that's rough.

Yup he was deemed untouchable lol. Clowns

Suggs going off on the Bucks....

Yea man this Magic team is extremely set for the future they'll take bostons place in the east

They look great but, I still think they need more shooting... Not being able to hit the 3 ball in the playoffs is a death kneel

They should be able to make some trades for all that if needed

That Wagner pick was masterful. Obviously not even Weltman expected him to be this good, or he would have taken him with the fifth pick. But it was a fantastic pick nonetheless. He's easily the best player from the draft class and a legitimate superstar talent. Weltman outmaneuvered both Masai and Presti, who are among the best drafters in the NBA.

I mean for now he's in the lead but it's still up for debate on who's really the best but he's clearly a star and to have that while also having Paolo is a team set to be great

Yeah, I'm not counting Scottie, or even Sengun and Cade, out just yet. But Wagner has been playing like a top-10 player this season. That's a tall mountain to climb.

This year he is looking like the best. In other years it was others. Barnes was ROTY and the only All Star so far.

That draft will likely keep yo-yoing on what guy has the best year each year. Lots of great players, glad we got one.

I mean, you want the guy who is going to be the best player entering his prime. What Scottie has done for stretches in the past is irrelevant if he can't build on that.

Scottie had a stretch of about a month and a half last year where he played at a top-10 level. But he hasn't shown the ability to return to that level for more than a handful of games since then. Maybe Wagner's early run this season was also a flash in the pan, but I don't think it was as he hasn't been riding an unsustainable shooting stretch to produce at this level.

Barnes has been hurt has he not? And christ, he was deemed the "long term project". To say he hasn't built on things is laughable.

And his stats are up this year vs last year. I am simply saying don't be surprised if next year it's a different guy that looks the best from that draft year.

Shai making Luka look like he isn’t even on his level.

[Brinbe]

OKC doing all this without Chet should be a scary sign to the rest of the association.

I’m so impressed with how many amazing players are on this OKC team.

They’re a clear favourite and they’re so young!

Shai making Luka look like he isn’t even on his level.

Shai is the most underrated player in the NBA. He's easily a top-3 player, maybe even top-2 (Giannis hasn't been particularly great for a while now). If he wasn't a quiet Canadian kid playing for the NBA's smallest market, ESPN would be talking about him 24/7.

It'll be an absolute crime if he doesn't win the MVP this season.
