Whew!!! I'm relieved Ben Simmons won't be on that team.

Pierce in Indy.
Nate in Atlanta.

The NBA gods love some irony; I fully expect us to face Indy in next year's playoffs.

Man, I wish I could've been a fly on the wall to see @jamallo's face when the news broke of Simmons being on the trading block.

Any thoughts on buying low on this kid and seeing if our development program + a more positive locker room can salvage his career?

Call me crazy but I still believe in him. He was one of my guys in that 18 draft with Luka and Mikal.

Milwaukee has set a blueprint for what a team built around Zion should look like.

Can’t wait to see what Memphis does with a top-10 pick.

Great trade for New Orleans.

I'd jump on this deal. If Culver's jumper gets to an even average level of consistency, he's a Ty Haliburton caliber player. Not an All Star, but an effective role player.

His defense and secondary playmaking could be great off the bench next to Trae.

I would too.
A second round pick is a good investment.

Scott Agness: Steve Gansey — the former Mad Ants (and summer Pacers) head coach — is in Atlanta to finalize a deal to become the head coach of the Hawks’ G League team (College Park Skyhawks), league sources said. The job would reunite him with Nate McMillan.
