Grumpy Old Man @ 30/6/2022 19:13 Pistons looking good i would not have taken on Noel and Burks but YMMV. Knocks im not sure about giving the second year to but it might be an option or something. a bit more money and years then i would have given Bagley too but again details might make it better. there is a real question as to who you were bidding against form him.

Pretty those guys are on 1 year deals and Pistons have the largest amount of money to spend in FA. Could wait till next season and let the young guys play and see what they have. Cade <3

Wolves trading 4 first round picks for Gobert? There is no way this doesn’t blow up in their faces at all.

its not who they took in its only getting lame second round picks for it. when you have lots of cap space and cant get a good free agent you take on a 1 year contract and get a lottery protected 1st round pick for it. for instance would the Lakers have given up the 1 pick they have left to dump Westbrick? what about the Cavs and Kevin Love? that would open up a massive TPE for them they could use to go after any number of players and there ownership is willing to pay big tax if it makes them significantly better.

at least the 4th one is top 5 protected. and its basically 5 1sts since they traded the guy they just drafted too. Danny Ainge will probably flip a few of those guys for more picks and somehow get another 4+ first round picks moving Mitchell well facilitating the Durant trade. Sam Presti is going to start to get jealous at this rate. plus you will have the Thunder, Spurs and maybe Jazz all tanking for the French kid along with teams that are just not that good.

RIP to the great Bill Russel. 11/13 championships in the NBA(8 in a row) plus 2/3 NCAA championships (Freshmen were not eligible to play back then) 1 Olympic gold medal (back when it was amateurs only) and 2 California high school state championships. the greatest winner in team sports. starting with his Junior year in high school he played in 18 seasons and 1 Olympics and won the highest possible level in 16/19 of them. oh yeah and he was player coach in the last 2.

that does not even touch on his work in the civil rights movement

Kyrie drama again. just yesterday i was talking with a friend about who he would sign with this off season.

what is Utah thinking? only getting a single 1st round pick? and well its only top 4 protected; if it does not convey it converts to a single 2nd round pick? Knicks are trading a lottery protected 1st that converts to 4 second round picks if it does not convey.

hot damn Durant trade. Nets swindle the Suns hard. im calling it now for the majority of there respective contracts Bridges will be the more valuable player then Durant, largely due to Durant's lack of durability. and that is a bunch of picks from a Suns team that will have an extra old Chris Paul, broken down Durant and Ayton.

After this year they're def fucked but I just hope they don't have enough juice to grab a championship this year. I hate the Suns so much

oh i kind of forgot about Booker because he is hurt. then again he dropped 70 in a loss the last time i saw him play in person so idk

Shall we petition to rename this thread to just NBA? Unless you guys are time travelers and predicting all this stuff back in 2021.

Pistons need to tank for Wemby

Cunningham has been a huge disappointment

Bucks traded FIVE 2nd round picks for Jae Crowder

I'll take it I guess lol

Was really digging how weak the west was this year and then Kyrie and Durant jump ship. Still feel decent about the Nuggets but its going to be a much tougher road.

He's hurt this year! He was good but not great last year. He definitely isn't the level of talent of Wembanyama but give Cade some time.

4 first round picks for Durant OR 4 first round picks for Gobert...

/facepalm
