But also, it's funny to see people make rings the only thing that matters when talking about legacy, then act surprised when players put themselves in the best position to get rings

And then people trying to make excuses why certain rings don't count

Does the Raptors ring not count cause KD missed the whole series and Klay got injured?

Does the Warriors 2015 ring not count cause Kyrie and Love were injured?

Do 3 of Kobe's rings not count cause he played with Shaq?

You can say certain rings mean more than others, I think 2011 is in a class all it's own, and 2016 is more impressive than any other one this decade, but if we're playing the asterisk game, pretty much every championship has an asterisk next to it. It's how sports is, you can't win without luck

he wants the smoke regardless...thats my point...especially when he could just ignore it - and live like a king...

doesnt mean much to me...

yep. They should acquire Drummond. Might be better off trading Glasszingis to Detroit too

Agreed. With the help of Blake Glassin, Detroit could then build an entire house of glass.

The Grizzlies have rebuilt already. Between Morant, Jackson and Clarke, they're set.

Watch them get another first round pick for a trade involving Andre Iguodala.

Dillon Brooks ain’t bad either and they got solid veteran contributors in Crowder and Valanciunas.

And then there is the Knicks, who might have acquired two future bench players, maybe 3, if you like Frank.

I liked the idea of another pick to get Clarke, and so did a lot of others. We also convinced ourselves he wasn't necessary, as the great Mitchell Robinson was on the roster.

That, of course, was before Mitch turned into a punk bitch around game 35 of his second season and starting getting owned by every center in the NBA with a shred of physicality.

At least the Knicks have their backup center of the future. Maybe.

18 points 10 rebounds. Averaging 15 ppg 8 rebounds in his last 10 games. And he’s only 20 years old. Knicks should’ve traded down for him
