Isn’t Luka playing this much international game would shorten his career?

Yeah, it maybe looks like that atm. But I think if they load manage Harden properly, he will be very dangerous in the playoffs, more so than Haliburton. Haliburton would have been a move for the future (him & Maxey potentially being the franchise cornerstone for many years to come), Harden is a win now move. We'll see what is smarter.

Tari Eason must have bombed his interviews. This guy was so clearly a top 5 pick.

What do u think of Usman Garuba?

I didnt like him when they drafted him but now he seems an intriguing played specially if he can knock down his 3s on a higher volume

12-12-2-2 per 36 numbers.
Can defend 1-5.
Can shoot 3s on low volume.

Jury still out on him for me. Can't be that bad at FT% to be more than a defensive bench player.

Haliburton is a much better fit than Fox. Better shooter. Better defender. All around better player. And I'm a UK guy.

Steal of that draft. He’s going to be a great 2 way player. Jabari is also starting to break out after looking raw and being called a bust. If Rockets get Wemby or Scoot they will be something to watch. I guess you could say that for any team getting Wemby though, he is the real deal.

Everytime Giannis drives it's like 50/50 offensive foul call

Jimmy Butler doesn't get nearly as much flack as we do for the split between us. I know the heat made the finals in a bubble year, but nothing Miami has put together would have been better than embiid+Butler

Clarkson
Beasley
Markanen
THT
Kessler

5 man unit is fun.

Deflections on defense, run and gun in transition, multiple shooters on halfcourt.

Watching how the Wolves team play. I do think a Edwards is a bad fit with their starting unit, unless they swap McDaniels for a combo guard.

IMO trading Ant for Maxey would be great for them in the short term, considering Ant has a higher upside

Maxey (or someone like him but better)
DLo
McDaniels
KAT
Gobert

Thats how their team should be run.

Another trade that may be cheaper for them is to trade for Coby White, Hyland, Cam Thomas,Mann, Bouknight, Grimes or Quickely

RJ Barrett.
Perfect example of https://www.jstor.org/stable/2393794

Such an awful player.

Could just be coincidence. But what if Hornets was tanking for Wembayama to be drafted by MJ and eventually sign with Jordan brand?
