Magic needs to steer that thing into a nosedive. I want #4 or #5.

Jim Buss getting replaced and Lou Will traded means Lakers will tank hard.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

If they don't want to max him then obviously you wait and give him a max offer sheet in offseason.

It looks to me like the lotto rig is officially on with Silver, Magic, and Jeanie just like it was last year with Silver, Harris and the Colangelos.

Similar coin, if the Wiz are going after Shabazz hard, I could see them not trying to resign Porter to a max deal.

I'd take either. Like them both a lot.

Anyone worried about Tyreke Evans affecting the Kings tank? I know they said he's going to be release, but what if he's not...

He is on a minutes restriction now, but I'm not sure if that'll be lifted. If he is, he could average between 16-18 ppg with 5-6 rpg and 5-7 apg...Remember he was a 20/5/5 guy his first year in the league... Evans has been riddled with injuries though...

I just don't want someone else messing up the tank, now that Boogie has been traded.

Thoughts?

Not overly concerned.

Even with the pick swap it's still in their best interest to tank, as they might not "catch" us in the race to the bottom (especially if Embiid and Simmons don't play the rest of the year), or we might have a better record but end up moving up to a top 3 via our own ping pong balls.

They also want to keep their top ten protected pick, and while that's achievable without going full on tank, better safe than sorry.

I wouldn't be surprised if they did. Teams that lose a big player often do play well right away, but reality will soon set in, and they will drop like a stone.

Kings are finishing bottom 5 now. They have no chance. Denver needs to beat them tonight for sure.

Would be good for us. The Rockets are an extremely dangerous team with Lou Will. It's a constant onslaught on the offensive end.

Jokic is an embarrassingly bad defender, but I know I'm not breaking news here.

The Kings seem reinvigorated, ball movement and energy are at maximum levels.

Even Skal Labissiere is playing well. What is going on?
