Keyonte George has been a revelation as well. He's what Bouknight could be if the light ever turned on.

Remember when everyone was pissed we didn't take Justise Winslow over Frank Kaminsky?

Turns out both just sucked. Winslow over the last 4 years has shot 44/177 from 3 or 24.8%. Yikes

I never quite understood Winslow for this team since we already had mkg on the roster. The real outrage obviously happened once details of the Boston Godfather offer started to emerge. Ultimately we should have filled a huge need and taken Booker or turner. Sigh.

Boston Celtics and Jaylen Brown just come to terms on a $304m contract over 5 years. Wow, he better show up in the play offs now

Jaylen Brown shot 55% efg in the playoffs, far from struggling IMO.

What happened for Haliburton to become the darling of RealGM?

My buddy tried arguing Haliburton is better than Jaylen Brown with me other day. Haliburton best team has won 35 games, and probably won't make the playoffs again this year. Meanwhile people don't like Jaylen Brown because he isn't elite at going left vs Jimmy Butler in the ECF game 7.

Haliburton meanwhile can fill it up in garbage time vs Hornets and Pistons and he is goated.

Makes no sense to me tbh.

Quick synopsis of Eastern teams, who got better? who got worse?

Bucks- Added (Malik Beasley) Lost (Jevon Carter, Joe Ingles, Wes Matthews)
Celtics- Added (Kristaps Porzingis) Lost (Marcus Smart, Grant Williams)
Sixers- Added (Mo Bamba, Pat Bev) Lost (Georges Niang, Jalen McDaniels, Shake Milton)
Cavs- Added (Max Struss, Georges Niang, Ty Jerome ) Lost (Cedi Osman)
Knicks- Added (Donte Divincezno) Lost (Obi Toppin, Drose)
Nets- Added (Dennis Smith Jr) Lost (Seth Curry, Joe Harris)
Hawks- Added (Kobe Bufkin, Patty Mills) Lost (John Collins, Aaron Holiday)
Heat- Added (Josh Richardson, Thomas Bryant) Lost (Max Struss, Gabe Vincent, Victor Oladipo)
Raptors- Added (Dennis Schroeder, Grady Dick, Jalen McDaniels) Lost (Fred Van Vleet)
Bulls- Added (Jevon Carter, Torrey Craig) Lost (Pat Bev)
Pacers- Added (Bruce Brown, Obi Toppin, Jarrace Walker) Lost ()
Wiz- Added (Jordan Poole, Tyus Jones, Coulibaly) Lost (Beal, Porzingis,Monte Morris)
Magic- Added (Anthony Black, Jett Howard, Joe Ingles) Lost ()
Hornets- Added (Brandon Miller and Miles Bridges) Lost (Dennis Smith Jr) TBD- Oubre and PJW
Pistons- Added (Ausar Thompson, Joes Harris, Monte Morris) Lost ()

Most the playoff teams got worse IMO.
Celtics seems like a wash to me, considering Porzingis health and they lost two key rotation pieces.

How are the Hornets not Green here? Added the #2 pick and get their 2nd best player back with a (for now) healthy Melo and Hayward. Seems obvious they will be better.

I will be in Charlotte to boo him one last time.

OKC just waived TyTy Washington - would give him a look. 22' 1st round pick, 21 years old, good measurables (just under 6'4" in shoes, 6'8" wingspan, 8'3.5" standing reach), Kentucky product, impressed in his G-League stint.
