Disagree. They were old and kind of screwed before the trade. Giannis didn’t want to extend. The made the trade. Giannis extend. Now they are still old and kind of screwed. If it all goes to hell, they trade Giannis and Dame and get stuff back. Still screwed but slightly less so than before the trade for Dame.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Firing Bud was the bucks biggest mistake. It’s coming back to haunt them.

Could probably say the same about Nurse. Except the players quit on Bud and both Nurse and the players quit on everyone lol.

This is the Celtics year. The East is just not going to have any resistance for them. West is going to be super competitive and grueling. If the Celtics don’t win then I don’t know what else Stevens can do. Their team is stacked.

Funny how the Knicks can play with two non-"shooters" on the floor and succeed but the Raps couldn't.

As long as he's ok for the playoffs. Will be really fun to watch the Knicks in a 7 game series against a healthy Philly/NY/Milwaukee.

They've turned the east into a 4 dog race which is cool.

IN Luca's defence, he probably still holds to a traditional interpretation of the gather rule.

The Knicks just play hard. They remind me of the Lowry/DeRozan Raptors who overachieved for years or the Miami Heat from a couple of season ago.
