Is it too late to make the "Magic are now the third best nba team in Florida" joke or is there still time? :(

https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/raptors-will-open-2020-21-nba-season-in-tampa-after-canada-denies-request-to-play-home-games-in-toronto/

Anyway I'm not sure if the measures are gonna get to the point where a limited amount of fans will be allowed into arenas over there, but could be an interesting option for some of you guys to watch some (cheap?) extra nba basketball if there's a period where it's possible to go to games before the Raps return to Toronto.

BOS just took a shot. IF Nesmith is a stud starter, they'll be okay but, otherwise Smart or Langford will be starting and depth is zilch.

I got some good new folks!

We're no longer the 5th highest team in the NBA in team salary!

WE'RE 6TH AND THE 9TH SEED APPEARS TO BE OURS FOR THE TAKING!!!

That Atlanta Dunn signing looks pretty good for them. If we passed on MCW, I thought Dunn would have made a lot sense here.

He would, but in the end Dunn is 6'3 guarding 1-2 (dont know about 3), while MCW is 6'6 guarding 1-3 while annoying 4-5 :)

I am perfectly fine with MCW, I like him a lot, he was cheaper, and I he is clearly the better offensive player too. Dunn is smaller, I have seen him manning up 4s. He is probably the best defensive guard in the league. It's a shame his offense keeps him off the court. If they could play him next to Trae, it would help them out a lot. I just don't think he sends Reddish/Huerter to the bench. The Hawks are deep all of a sudden.

You should not be surprised, the Hornets have sucked since Jordan has taken over with stupid contracts like this

There goes the Westbrook trade fantasy some of our posters have. Lol

Yeah... lets tank this season with the way other East teams have reloaded.
