Irving should be guarding Finney Smith.

That’s what Carlisle is trying to do through switches.

Seriously, if we can get a top 35 pick for the guy, take it right damn now.

A #16 pick, Starting Caliber PG?

I haven't been into the whole prognosticating players thing for a while, and didn't really have an opinion on Doncic. But Trae Young didn't even look like a good shooter. I don't know what the fascination with him was all about.

I miss Larkin. He is such an underrated player. His defense on the smaller faster guards (Bareas, VanFleet etc.) is top notch.

Call me nuts but this seems like prime time to let RW3 take a stab at putting some height and energy out there. I find this perplexing.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

can't help but wonder how nba gm's don't seem to scout any better than the average realgm


I sometimes feel they overthink a lot.

Stevens has exceptional patience. I would have had a couple strokes and be constantantly verbally assaulting guys.

Real smart Tatum. Dončić steals the ball from you, and then you foul him.

Irving, Baynes PnR is hopeless. Can Williams fast forward and become Capela?

Dončić has so far played against our 1-4's.

If he were a starting caliber PG, I'd agree with this.

Tatum got stronger a little bit this offseason but he needs to get even stronger. I believe in Tatum. He will be a great player but he is very weak.
