That's some 2 bit logic somebody made up while watching the POTUS speak on the demo flat screen at the local 5 and dime..... :D

Obviously, Durant thinks he's lucky to have been given a max contract to sit a year out without the team even knowing if he ever will perform to the level he once could....If it was me, I'd grab that lucky #7 uniform too! :)

Any "saki bearded boy" with his mouth open at his local hibachi grill who knows fake news when he sees it could tell you that! :D

Perhaps the author of this thread should change the name of it to "Around the NBA 4.0 Nonsense Celtic Talk? :D

Avery Bradley to the Lakers?? Ewww.

I'm convinced that Pelinka and his scouting staff just watch YouTube highlight videos when they do their research, rather than watching recent games. Green and Bradley are both kind of washed.

Ernie D was historically bad. This is unbelievably sad to see in writing though.

What I could see happening with Westbrook. OKlahoma City trades him to Houston for Chris Paul + draft picks. Chris Paul then either gets flipped to Miami for more assets or they keep him a year or two when he's more valuable as a fast expiring contract.

I watched Bradley on the Clippers last year vs the Kings, mid-season and he was washed then. Beat repeatedly, and his 3ball was bad. His numbers ticked-up once he got more burn with MEM. However I'd guess as a low usage player on the Lakers he'll return to pre-trade form.

Cousins injury was worse to recover from and he at least showed some heart in the playoffs


Hayward had to have surgery in May or June. People don’t realize what a setback that was. Hayward basically began his rehab all over again in July. Not fair to compare him to George or others who had injury and 1 surgery.


The second surgery is a bit of a lame excuse to me. It wasn't repairing anything, it wasn't doing anything structurally. It was just removing some hardware in his leg. It's like a 4-6 week setback. It doesnt explain his lack luster season.
