Around the NBA - new season chatter

[NoDopeOnSundays]

Ayton didn’t look great either on defense his first year. If he can figure it out am sure Wiseman can.

Darn would have loved to see Wiseman grow with RJ and IQ.

I think Wiseman is way better as a rim protector than Rookie Ayton. But that foot speed though.. ion know if Wiseman can really improve that much in that aspect. Hopefully he can though. He’s not terrible but he looked slower than I expected

Imagine we got Cade, IQ, RJ, Wiseman. Smh

Mitch is better than Wiseman.

Mitch gotta be better than Nerlens first.

It baffles me that someone thinks George should be handling the ball this much and not spotting up more. I don't get it.

George thinks that too

George thinks that too

He's a player though. At his best he's a decent secondary playmaker at his worst he's a 50/50 decision maker. And as pressure ratchets up he makes even worse decisions.

[ibraheim718]

What I'm saying is is that they don't have one natural playmaker other than Batum. How you going to win a championship like that?

[ibraheim718]

Cp3, George, Leonard and a bunch of sticks wins a chip.

I am telling you guys Clippers are disaster waiting to strike PG forgot how to play basketball and Kawhi is checked out

2021 first round draft pick to New York
New York has the right to swap its 2021 1st round pick for the L.A. Clippers' 2021 1st round pick protected for selections 1-4 (if this pick falls within its protected range and is therefore not conveyable, then the L.A. Clippers' obligation to New York will be extinguished) [L.A. Clippers-New York-Washington, 2/6/2020]

Meh the protection kills any hype

No wonder he had his best ever season next to advanced ball handler like Westbrook

Thats the old Batum this Batum moves around the court like Wiseman

Maybe they’ll be the worst team in the nba but drop to 5th in the lottery. The mavs will win 1st in the lottery, and the Knicks will make the playoffs and do the pick swap to wind up with 1 and 5

[god shammgod]

clippers can't hold a lead for 1 half

This is the only way we will ever win the lottery

Lonzo Ball or Dennis Schroder
Who you picking for the Knicks?

Lonzo Ball or Dennis Schroder
Who you picking for the Knicks?

Lonzo all day everyday and twice on Sunday, and I'm well aware of his flaws.

[BugginOut]

How much would you make the Warriors give up in a Wiggins for Randle swap? I’m thinking two unprotected 1st round picks minimum.

[RHODEY]

Lonzo Ball or Dennis Schroder
Who you picking for the Knicks?

Immanuel Quickley.

[SelbyCobra]

It's more than that, in all likelihood. It's a completely unpalatable contract. At the very least you'd be looking at something like both GSW (unprotected) and MIN (owned via trade) in 2021, and also 2023 unprotected.

You're talking about taking on $75M AND the worse player. I did rough research around draft time, and I believe it was found that the 2nd overall pick in the NBA draft had a net value of around $25M. It's a really, really, really difficult situation to actually balance out (Wiggins for Randle) with picks alone.

Lonzo for the Knicks. Dennis if you got Lebron
