Lillard better not be robbed again...

Grizzlies now fighting in the locker room. Maybe Fiz wasn’t the problem, after all. Dunno. Just speculating.

Thanks for reminding me about the AS vote. Today and tomorrow votes are worth double. So, ldo, I went ahead and voted Luka and a bunch of random good-but-no-chancers in the West and 4 Knicks and (for some bizarre reason I can't right now reconstruct) JJ Redick in the East. Good times.

Fiz heritage?

I still think Lebron will choose Durant, Curry, Harden and Davis, while Giannis will choose, Leonard, Embiid, Irving and Walker (or Wade just for the sake of his farewell season)

Actually, I wasn't quite accurate above. I also voted Jokic in the West.

Imagine if KP had a passing game like Jokic

Jeremy Lin has more votes than Kant and Tina...

Oh my. In KP's defence I think he is only starting to face being double teamed and the necessity of passing out of the double team better. Seeing whether that was really happening is one of the most frustrating things about his being Giannis-ed. I think it is simply impossible to predict whether he will have worked on that in this last year - or whether everything has been about making his body ready for the demands of the NBA. Again, I don't have the knowledge to have a view about how much weight should be put on one or the other.

As for Jokic ... just mind blowing. A guy I know on another board said:

Jokic doesn't look like he was born like a normal person, more like he slowly emerged out of a milky bowl of cereal left out overnight.

And that makes the water-polo floaters, no look passes, etc, etc, seem all the more unlikely.

For a player that we should’ve re-signed and traded for a package like that.

Post #1055 » by **Thugger HBC** » Fri Jan 4, 2019 1:40 am

Spurs and their fans are really enjoying this one.

Post #1056 » by **dakomish23** » Fri Jan 4, 2019 2:11 am

Some folks m were trashing Holiday on his way out while praising THJ as a core piece.

Now we can’t dump THJ for free and Holiday is getting assets.

:banghead:

we'll probably just sit on our ass through the deadline.

robillionaire · Post #1058 » by **robillionaire** » Fri Jan 4, 2019 2:54 am

Lee should have been gone a year ago at the deadline, this is just front office incompetence

Optimism != Realism

There are no potential landing spots for Lee and/THJ. They are bad contracts that require assets, been saying this since before the summer and everyone thought I was crazy, but proof in puddjng...

Imagine if Jokic played Defense or wasn't afraid to block a shot. :roll:

Imagine if Knicks' fans actually liked their Players. :roll:

Imagine if people didn't treat their Team like NBA2K. :roll:
