Austin Reaves is decent but appears allergic to shooting. Bradley at least theoretically can knock down 3s.

Reaves will get more confident and he's a fine enough shooter for a rookie. I like his basketball IQ from what I've seen so far.

Looks like a different kind of bullshit. The EPL ones, while of dubious legality and morality, aren�t really �scams�. People are getting exactly what they think they are, it�s just advertising something lovely. The whole point of advertising illegal gambling is driving people to your betting site so they�re clearly trying for a different play since people can�t figure out what (if anything) they actually do.

I think along with what everyone said, Reaves got hurt after his early nice run of a couple games, and then entered protocols after that big game he had a couple weeks ago.

Although Bradley might be cut today depending on how much stock you put into Eric Picnus's capology. I guess midnight is when his deal becomes guaranteed.

I mean, if Zion's weight is a legitimate concern for the Pels, having him rehabbing as far away from New Orleans as possible is probably a good idea.

Only if it means his mother isn't coming with him or is prohibited from making Zion his favorite meals. IIRC, Zion even said that she makes him his favorite comfort foods when he is feeling down. And he has been feeling down a lot since his injury and all the subsequent blasting media and fans have put on him. Especially with the photoshops making him appear significantly heavier/bigger than he really is and a large number of people taking it as fact.

If someone doesn�t like creole food you don�t want them on your team anyway

I don't think the rehabbing is really about "losing weight" anyway. While thats probably a bonus, foot injuries are bad news regardless and take forever to heal. Unlike an ACL or MCL where you hit a point where its just "You'll suck but you're not really in much danger of further damage", foot injuries need to be healed right or you start over.
