Once again, that's his own damn fault.

STAT being one big ass injury was Melo's fault?


Oh yes it is. He looked at Melo's fat ass and said "Yeah, I gotta get an ass like that."

Not athletic as I thought he would be, really not much offensive potential, a broken slow shot but apparently he is a good defender. I would say a slightly better lance thomas

Yeah I think he's not as good as some folks may envision. He is a bit stiff legged. He came in with a reputation as this athletic beast but the reality is he does look a bit stiff. I'm not seeing much upside.

Batman reach the playoffs even if its a low seed on a bad team. I dont want to hear it. He's second tier.



No they don't.

Go talk to Anthony Davis.


The teams Phil assembled were trash. The year that we first missed the playoffs was injury filled a long with a bunch of other nonsense

I want that big rookie they got out of Purdue. He has been averaging a double double in Summer League and looks like he's worked on his conditioning.

It's down to 90 degrees so I'm going to take the dog for a walk. Remember, no Anderson and no Leonard.

I think THJR is the better player and has more upside but KCP for a year is much better than THJR for 4 years at the same price per. No question.


Respectfully, this is where I disagree. If THJ scores 17+ PPG on 45/37, his salary will never be a sore point. If KCP does the same, LAL is either going to lose him or pay more than Knicks did. If he does substantially worse, who really wants him. They will get the benefits of a 1-year bump which could help them move forward, but they'll have to refill the hole.

It comes down to player performance and not precise math. It's why nobody is wowed at Lowry making $30 mil. He's good.
