he was also good in detroit once they finally played him

Even when he wasn't starting he was putting up great +/- and stats per 100p. But when you can get a plumlee for 2m less per year, you've got to do it

Rajon had some very positive things to say about old young D-Rose. you think Rondo is on Team D-Rose is BACK?

quote:

Appearing on the "ALL THE SMOKE" podcast hosted by former NBA players Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes, Rondo paid perhaps the ultimate compliment to Derrick Rose.

"No, man, nobody," Rondo responded when Barnes asked if prime Rose compared to any player he had faced.
...
"Seven-game series when he was out there? Boy, he put your (expletive) in trouble," Rondo said. "You're on your heels the whole game."
...
"You got a whole scouting report on him for sure," Rondo said on the podcast.

To which co-host Jackson talked about packing the paint.

"And he still getting in there and jumping over everybody," Rondo said. "He was too explosive. He was for sure a one-man fast break every night."

He's gonna be an all star this year (Davis, Jokic, Wood). Luke Kennard is going to be a dark horse candidate for MIP but won't put up good enough numbers to compete with the actual MIP.

Such is the tank. What little vestiges of appreciable NBA talent your team had are thrown to the wind, allowing them to blossom into the talented players they could have always been. Assuming they don't end up on the Knicks.

Bulls could beat a couple of bad teams on that list, but would still need to get lucky. They'll also beat at least one of the good teams and cause everyone to overreact about what it means.

Sounds like a low grade sprain, which usually isn't a big deal to play through. KAT is super tough though so I hope they sit him for this game if the swelling doesn't go down. He'd probably try to power through a broken wrist if it were up to him.

I am chalking it up to weirdness to start the season. Training camp is important.

The extra win is clearly better, however this is a team that had chemistry issues off the court last season. A loss like this could (unrightfully) cause a lot of finger pointing in the locker room that could cause bad vibes for the season.

I think it's safe to say any weird results from the first couple of weeks of the season should be ignored and just be blamed on the lack of a real offseason/training camp/preseason.
