Everyone, pick out your next team to root for after you abandon the Knicks after the Westbrook trade

I'm going with the Suns.


I am torn between Hawks, Utah, Denver or Pelicans.

But I dont discard going Miami, LAC or GSW!!! Should be fun winning for a change...


Just start watching hockey or woodworking or something. Carve shore birds.


Sorry. I've been drinking heavily all day. Found out our beloved platoon sgt passed away. Oh well. Anyway:

miami is gonna trade a bunch of those good players for a star first chance they get. they're not a real contender until they do so.


Not a real contender? They made it to the finals , barring injury I say they would have taken the Lakers to the birnk if healthy. But since they built the right way they have talent to spare - even in a trade for the Freak.- they will still have several key pieces remaining- several allstars. Why? Because they took the time to build the correct way.


I agree Miami is a contender.

But they are not a good example of building a team. It's was too difficult and they got lucky.
- a) They got a really good player in Adebayo with a mid pick.
- b) Got a superstar.
- c) Got another really good player with another mid pick who overachieved in his first year.
- d) Got lucky developing 2 undrafted players that overachieved in their first year of serious game time
- e) Traded for good vet help


a) So their scouts were lucky? Maybe they have good scouts? Didn't they also draft Herro,and Duncan...was that luck too?
b)they got a superstar? Butler? :-?
c)got another really good player?? Who and how? Luck again?
d) So developing undrafted players is luck too..
e) trading for good vet help ...doesn't that prove my point?

Okoro was really trash in these Kentucky games. If you ask me I'd say Maxey was easily the more impressive player overall. Okroro was straight up buns offensively. Great defender but oh my he has long ways to go offensively. I think he's a terrible fit on our roster quite honestly

Zach Lavine/Ayo Dosunmu/Corey Kispert

I wonder what the plan is if Okoro gets taken before 8? Does that kick in operation “trade down”?

Yeah, I get it. I found out way after the fact when a couple friends of mine passed without getting the opportunity to say goodbye. Have a great day on the trail tomorrow with your buddy.

#10 - Draft Kira

#15 - Draft RJ Hampton

#21 - Draft Cole Anthony

Kira/Cole/(Anfernee)
Huerter/Terry/Hampton
RJ/Huerter
Oubre/Knox/(Nassir)
NoDopeOnSundays/Randle

From worst backcourt in the league to best young backcourt in history

Would have loved to get #2 by taking on Wiggins and keep Mitch with that beast young backcourt but ofc we dont have enough capspace somehow

Westbrook/Schroeder
RJ Barrett
Gordon Heyward
Julius Randle
Mitch
Bench: Frank/Devin Vessell or Kira/Taj Gibson/Other draft picks
In short, all I am saying is RJ-Brunson-Grimes-Quickley-Randle are the untouchables moving forward.
