Finally PG13 brain chip not acting up

As Lebron spun to the hoop I swore he yelled, "That's how it's done Julius!"

Who you picking for the Knicks?

Immanuel Quickley.

If Quickly continues to improve there is no need for either

Does Kahwi have the best mid-range pull-up shot in the history of the NBA aside from MJ?

Disrespectful to Allan Houston's one step pull-up

In terms of defense he should be fine as a rim protector but he did get blown by a couple of times on the perimeter. Gonna be interesting to see how he does against guards this season

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

Imagine that we
- draft Donovan instead of Frank;
- draft Shai instead of Knox
- gave KP an extension before the feud.

I was with you until you brought up brickstaps

Even then the team would be bad and we would have the brickstaps albatross Max contract and Donovan would be demanding a trade and we wouldn’t have RJ or Toppin because Donovan wins more games and Mills would probably still be the GM

Just trust they’d have still screwed it up and try to enjoy what we got

My ears stood up at attention like Rin Tin Tin, especially with Marv saying it

Now, I'm looking forward to the Henessey Drink-Off at All-Star Weekend. I'm putting money on this guy

I do think so. He is a good player.

Clippers not the better team but definitely the hardest opponent for Lakers still. Just a very bad match up. Now with Ibaka they can even challenge AD to some degree.

Lakers will need another present from Nuggets or Suns if they will repeat.

How about signing Jarrett Allen or John Collins rather than extending Robinson at the same rate? In that case or with that in mind, we could NOW trade Mitch for more picks/players while he has ample value. That's a massive net-gain.

Or we can just extend Mitch?

Collins is Obi who panned out and Allen is just another center who can't defend as well as Mitch. At least we have two years left of Mitch which gives us some flexibility for this upcoming offseason.
