Luka needs Giannis, Jokic, KD and Embiid to go with Kyrie OR....OR....the mavs need a coach....not someone watching from the best seats in the arena. Move Kidd please -


He had kp who Rick misused but not thriving and healthy in Washington and the mavs cheaped out and let Jalen go and now they will do the same with wood

Does Silver need one last run by old man Lebron for ratings?


Cranjis McBasketball (Lakers exceptionalism podcast 27 Mar 2023) just went through this.

Lakers' offence utilises mostly offensive sets that (league-wide) result in a lot of FTs (postups, isos and other sets that result in shots at the rim), and mostly don't use sets that don't (drives, spot up jumpers, floaters).

Lakers defense also gives up offence that results in fewer foul shots (turning layups/dunks into floaters, fewer postups and isos)

It's part of the game plan

Harden is 33 going on 43...at least at times. Harden isn’t bad but he ain’t anywhere near a max player anymore-

His outshape ways caught up to him

He is younger than Curry, KD and LBJ and is closer to Westbrook than he is to those 3

I wanna visit Arkansas just to see what kind of cloth Reaves is cut from.
