Memphis is a franchise that is thrilled just to have a star player and win 50 .

Memphis should be one of the teams active for Star power with some offense. They should use some of that draft capital... Maybe for James? :nod:


With Steven Adams out, I could see MEM flipping him plus a protected 1st for Zubac? That could help get a Harden deal done.

Man, Springers former running mate at UT, Keon Johnson, must really suck if he can't even make it to the end of his rookie deal, lol.

That Okongwu deal is a steal

Played really well when Capela was out. Hawks doing it right with replacing Collins with Jalen then Capela with Okongwu. But that Dejounte trade has to hurt. They’d better off with Bogdanovic with Trae.

Open up the bidding! 2 potentially great young players, 4-5 1sts, 2-3 swaps to open.

Now that Giannis is off the market I expect Joel's name to come up every other day in a possible trade to a destination / major market team. These sites have to generate views somehow.
You want it to be one way....but it's the other way.

Kinda funny the Lakers are the all-“**** the bed with your first team” and LeBron. DLO, Jaxson Hayes, Rui, Reddish, Wood… I suppose AD was very good with the Pelicans.

Lakers and Nuggets are same

Suns’ depth is a suspect

I like the Warriors squad this season, I have them as my pick to win it. That means they wont win it this year lol

New York media are desperate. Mets and Yankees were massive disappointments, Giants and Jets suck, Brooklyn is rebuilding and the Knicks have that fake aura playing in crappy old MSG. If the Knicks team full of mediocre players (other than Brunson) that collected some teens or worse draft picks thanks to protections on them was out there craving a superstar nobody would pay them any attention, buts it’s NY so the fake stories and trades are all passing as news.

7 game series for Suns and Warriors would be closest thing to those Heat vs Spurs finals series. GSW would need CP3 and Klay to not suck for them to beat the Suns

Eubanks looked good from what I saw last night. Good big man depth for Phoenix. Sad no Bol Bol sighting, though.
