Re: Around the league 2017-2018
The thing about Ball is his shot is so terrible. Yeah, Fultz form hasn't looked pretty but he's supposedly injured and it came out of nowhere I have no idea why the Lakers drafted Ball with that form 2nd. He should have been drafted much later in the 6-8 range.
His shot needs a ton of work and he doesn't ability to beat his man off the dribble so yeah it was just a bad pick. I'm like the rest of you worried about Fultz but I'm not worried we didn't take Ball.

I'll give Daddy his credit. He pumped his sons tires up so much that he even had Magic deluded into thinking he was the next coming of himself.

Thoughts on Kevin Durant pointing to his ring finger at the crowd as he got ejected?
I think it shows how psychologically weak KD is.

I think it sums up the guy perfectly since he uses a burner account to tweet mean things at people.

My thoughts on KD hasn't changed the color yellow suits him.

Nice GW for Wiggins, can’t believe he’s only 22, and he’s only missed like 1 game since being drafted in the injury draft class of 2014. Feels like 10 years ago.
Hopefully he improves this year on defense and becomes a more all around player.

Butler and Teague should help them a lot.

I love Lavar lol. He knows just how to troll people. He love getting a reaction from fans. I’m sure Wall will try to score 50 though.

This will be Lonzo's worst game. It's going to be amazing.

Re: Around the league 2017-2018
I think they'll put Ball on Porter. Otto has shown an ability to post so I expect Ball to get posted and toasted for a bit. No way they put him on Wall or Beal....not gonna happen.

Re: Around the league 2017-2018
Would be totally like the Cavs to ruin their minute level of flexibility with a trade involving that pick for EB.

Re: Around the league 2017-2018
I wouldn't put it past Colangelo dealing with his former franchise. He's in win now mode and losing these 3 games along with Fultz's shot could make him make a knee jerk trade. I'm not against Bledsoe, but he better not move an important piece for him. Bledsoe does have experience being second fiddle when he was with Wall at UK. Not sure he's going to settle for that.

Re: Around the league 2017-2018
Bledsoe for Okafor is something the Suns can sell to their fans. And if it doesn't work out at all, flip Bledsoe at the deadline for an expiring and a late 1st.

I think Bledsoe will go to Milwaukee. They have the leading MVP who is beasting. You have to get talent around him.

I think he'll push hard for the Pelicans. Loves Boogie and they are obviously needing help on backcourt. I don't think the Suns care about what he wants though.
