Pritchard asking for a trade is hilarious. Didn't some Bucks benchwarmer years ago ask for a trade? Was it Jake Voskuhl?

I believe you're thinking of Thon Maker.

Just saw Spurs players got an extra 700k since they didn't hit the salary floor. That's life changing money for a guy like Mamu who only has made 2 league money and only gotten real NBA money for a quarter of a season.

The difference is Pritchard can actually play. He should have been getting 20 mpg as the primary backup PG for some team this year and last. He's IMO a prime candidate to have a nice year next season and we should 100% be trying to trade for him considering his skillset is completely absent on this roster and we have really no avenues to address that issue.

Pritchard was always a pretty obvious contributor on some level even despite his lack of athleticism/size.

My guess is that the Grizz organization knew a ton of info going back to last year that they were withholding until the league stepped in to investigate now and threatened them with huge consequences. My guess is definitive proof that guns were on NBA premises, that Ja has a very serious alcohol addiction/dependency, and even potentially that Ja is involved with actual criminal activity off the court.

I'm anticipating a full year suspension potentially with stipulations to be reinstated. If that's the case it makes sense not to announce now as it'd be the biggest NBA story in so long. Crazy stuff.

Jokic is towering over the Heat. Heat may lose 0-4.

Only hope is to get Jokic in foul trouble.

Aaron Gordon looks like Shaq against this Heat defense.

I hated how the Bucks never took advantage of size mismatches like this. Lopez could have a guy like Gordon Hayward on him and they wouldn’t exploit like Denver has here with Aaron Gordon.

The taller players of the Heat are Zeller and Jovic. Soon Spo may be forced to play them to single team Jokic. Now Denver players are wide open as the Hest are scared of Jokic and are double teaming him.

The swings Bam has as an offensive player are pretty crazy.

Heat have finally run into a team who can match their BBIQ. This should be a great series.

Struss looks like he's turning into Grayson Allen though, bricking great looks in a big game.
