Well, hopefully no guards means we are expecting Shamet and ZPayne back after all star break

So after this season, Irving may look to join Durant here! How pissed would Dallas be then IF he left to join a conference rival they clearly despise!! Just to possibly see the level of meltdown from Diva Dallas fans and Doncic nut huggers would be so epic!! The icing on the cake though would be Doncbi*** getting really frustrated and leaving Dallas!....... :lol: :lol: :lol:

That would be hilarious :lol:


We will probably trade Ayton for a S&T'd Kyrie and a washed McGee in the offseason.

well, if I understand it correctly, Warriors rerouted Bey and got 5 2nd round picks back for 2nd pick overall in Wiseman? is it really good?


Traded for Bey then flipped him for 5 seconds lol

You think Raps would want to pair Ayton and Poeltl? All signs point to Raps wanting to keep Siakam.The guys they will likely trade are OG and GTJr..maybe VanVleet.

Par for the course to keep Durant happy as well as solve our PGOTF dilemma? :-?

CP3 played with Bazley in his rookie season, pretty sure that James Jones has asked about him as a fit on the team.

This is a wild number. I guess we finally witnessed the Warriors breaking point when it comes to spending.

True Shooting
Career - .565
This year - .576

Wasn't he a fan favorite like Mikal and Cam at one point?

If somehow, we can have them all available and healthy, we are going to be very difficult to beat. Damn

That is if we make the playoffs.



Warren is a good player that can fill the point hole easily when healthy, but he has been out for two years. We need him to go back to his ancient level.
He can play SF, PF and even SG for us coming off the bench, which could really be a luxury.

Bazley was posting near 14 points, 7 rebounds 2 seasons ago at age 20. Sure he had terrible efficiency, but I'll take him. :lol:

TBH, 5 2nd round picks is a good price for $130M. Wiseman is worthless on the court.
