Atlanta seems like a good 3rd team to get involved. Could see them wanting to speed up their timeline, selling their young wings for a proven Middleton. Some combination of Hunter, Reddish, Donte, picks and Parsons to make money work. Still unlikely, but that's the route we'd have to take.

If you were the Hawks, would you want to go all-in on a Middleton/Young kind of team?

If the Bucks were in that position, this board would implode if we sold our young talent for a Middleton-level player.

I mean, no, but Schlenk did choose Trae over Doncic so :dontknow:

Which also makes Orlando a solid option if they're ready to bail on Bamba or something, Weltman/Hammond's seat has got to be starting to warm up a bit and could be motivated to make a splash.

Spurs are going through a brutal stretch of basketball (they've lost 7 straight). Hopefully Pop and his squad can grind one out in Philly tonight.

Watching Aldridge go up against Embiid is good viewing.

Bill Simmons may have jumped the gun on his Celtics/Clippers finals

direct competitor for playoff seeing or not, you never want to see that.

Hopefully he is OK and wont be out too long.
Why should you go to jail for a crime someone else noticed? You don't need double talk... You need Bob Loblaw.

The fact that nobody has leaked any news on Kemba yet is terrifying. One of the most well liked guys around the league. Love Kemba

Hopefully that's just a jar, but maybe it could be a fractured transverse process too. Hopefully hear something soon.

Pat Beverly flopping all over the place. NBA really needs to start fining flops more often and increase the fine to ~50K.

Nuggets meltdown while Boston has Wanamaker/Tatum/Javonte Green (who?)/G. Williams/R. Williams on the floor.

That Kemba injury scared me
In Greek basketball we've seen a player (Boban Jankovic) paralyzed for life from a head butt not much worse than Kemba's
