The comments are good, “the spreadsheet dynasty” followed by a graphic with text “The Excel World Championship.”

The Rockets are very much in the Lavar school of speaking something into existence.

They should put the "best post defender in the league" on Giannis when we play them this year.

I really hope Morey wins nothing his entire career, too many pats on their own back from that organization.

I feel like that Rockets owner is the guy who spilled oil all over Zack Morris' duck.

I don't know if that would go well for Giannis tbh.

Would be a real shame to watch Harden foul out in 10 minutes. Reaaaaaal shame

The Hornets have one of the most **** rosters I can recall. Two guys (Monk and Rozier) that I absolutely abhor are going to be running their offense. The only guy I have interest in watching is Bridges. Hope that guy is able to escape that garbage situation.

At least now the Hornets are gonna be so bad that they're bound to get a Top-4 draft pick and have a chance to hop off the treadmill. It's a shame because Borrego seems like he's a good coach, but man, without Kemba, that's some of the worst collection of offensive "talent" that I've ever seen.

How good of a post player do you think Giannis is?

Sefolosha signed with Rockets. I would have liked him on a minimum contract. Shoots 3's at good %, though low frequency. Still an excellent defender.

Good question. The Bucks should post him up a few times so we can find out.

Looking at him you would think he would be good posting up but he has trouble establishing position and backing down a lot of players.Harden for example last year stopped him fairly well or Smart during the WC a few weeks ago but other times he embarrasses the defender(Simmons).

He probably lacks lower body strenght and/or his center of gravity is high so he has trouble with shorter players?Not really sure :dontknow:

Yeah, the Simmons moment was great. Not saying he's Hakeem (he's not) or McHale (he's not) but Giannis could benefit from better footwork in the post, similarly to those two gentlemen.

Interesting.

G League level play is so ugly I wouldn’t mind if it stuck around there. No fan or scout wants to watch Theo Pinson shoot 15 free throws.
