That Clippers trade is horrendous if they don’t win it all


The trade got them George and Kawhi, I think the Clips made the right decision.

Agree about Ingram, he's been impressive for NO. Maybe my Laker-hatervision blocked it out but he's looking like a nice piece if he can stay healthy, hopefully Zion can come back healthy.

My Ingram over Ben Simmons hot take from the 2016 draft finally not looking so hot after all.

It got them those two for 2 years. It’s definitely worth it if they win it all, if they don’t it’s going to blow up in their face. That was a massive haul they gave up for George who has one of the lengthiest injury histories in the league.

It was a massive risk/reward power play

Oh I don't think that take was that hot after all. When evaluating draft prospects one should argue who becomes the better player on average (and by how much) but if anyone was saying that Ingram couldn't ever become better than Simmons they were lying to themselves.

The moral high ground of 'tanking is not what we believe in'. Clearly, they must have forgotten the year they purposely sunk down the stretch for a better lottery player...Barnes says hello. Trading your leading scorer for an injured Bogut. Just some moves that helped propel you to your years of prosperity. "Mother Fakers".
Go Bucks!

This Houston-Nets game is so visually interesting. it's like Pleasantville, where the Rockets are the people busting out of a black-and-white world.

So Harden was bitching about Giannis MVP and he is playing some horrible basketball,he gets bailed out by FTs efficiency but holy **** the guy is just a volume shooter at this point in the season

James Harden: 10/31 (FGM/FGA) and -14 in the floor but he had 36 points, so he definitely deserves MVP according to some.

Let's see Porzingis vs AD. That will be interesting.

Bron just crossed up Luka, drove baseline, and missed a layup instead of obliterating the rim.

Father time, undefeated.

We can all bitch about Bledsoe over Brogdon, but not giving up everything for a Giannis/KP unicorn frontcore is where we screwed up.
