Amazing article on Podz.

"Kevon Looney remembers the new rookie guard bashing into him and clawing over rebounds. He initially told Podziemski to quit stealing them away. Then he realized it was part of his game and attitude."

Draymond: "He talk **** all day, that's all he do" :lol: :lol: :lol:

Removing 3 second defense rule will be on the table if not already. Adjust accordingly.

Somewhere Zach Edey and his agent have their fingers crossed on removing defensive 3 second.

That would radically change nba

He must be trying to get fired

JJ Redick rant today totally on point.

He was acting as Griffin “advisor” and communicating with management and ownership. He’s trying to shed the totally justified snake label

Yikes feel for the guy but the game ain’t in him no more.


Klay pre-injuries (knee & then achilles) and post, are just two different players.

I think the interest in LeBron is real, and I would not be shocked if GSW lets both Klay and CP3 walk, and then trades a FRP with the contracts of Wiggins, Looney & GP2 to a team like the Raps for BB and the room they have to absorb to the contracts.

GSW could then free up like $40M in room to sign LeBron, while still holding onto Kuminga, Podz and Moody.

Looney and GP2's contracts only have one year left after this season, so not a huge burden.

Wiggins is the interesting one. He is still owed a decent amount for the next 3 seasons, after this season, but he is potentially the only asset (outside of the FRP) that GSW would be moving off.

Klay is 34, and after what the injuries have already taken away from him, will only get worse. Wiggins is 5 years younger, has his physical health, and the potential to rebound from this down year, whereas Klay is probably on a steady decline, with expectations of a decent contract (if Klay were to be offered next season what Wiggins will be making next season, that would still only be 60% of what Klay earned this year). At least Wiggins salary is covering his remaining prime years. Any team paying for Klay, is paying for years 34, 35, 36 and possibly 37.

Doc totally stabbed Griffin in the back to take that job. He is full of crap here. He wanted one last large payday before no team hires him again (a point I thought we had already reached).

Then you have their GM going out of his way to say Giannis didn't know about Jrue being traded because he didn't want to put him in that position. LOL, as if Giannis didn't sign off on that deal. Lots of BS coming out of Milwaukee lately.

Knicks up 69-46 at half on Sixers and Brunson has only 9 points. Bogdanovic 19. Precious 11 and 9 in 20 minutes.

I can't see game but apparently Kyle took an elbow from Sims and got hurt, not sure how bad.
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Podz just took a charge from AD and then next play AD fouled to pick up his 2nd. Now he sits his arse on the bench. The Podz effect.
