I feel ya, and it's a fair observation that stuff like Twitter/insta/tiktok lend themselves to hyperbole

Dejan Bimble posted:Theres no need for hyperbole. Shes very good. Shes not the best drivbler on planet earth. We should respect what things are without having to imagine them as something theyre not. She literally has the world record for simultaneous basketball dribbling. Saying she’s the best at that isn’t hyperbole it’s a statement of fact

Detroit Mercy legend Willie Green could be the Pels next coach. Longtime Bud assistant Charles Lee is also in contention https://lonzowire.usatoday.com/2021/07/05/pelicans-head-coach-rumors-willie-green-charles-lee-fred-vinson/ https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/nba/miami-heat/article252679788.html Just some Duncan Robinson musing, again sourced to JJ Redick's podcast. Why is that the number one soft news destination for nba players? Dejan Bimble fucked around with this message at 16:41 on Jul 12, 2021 |

Pelicans should try and trade for Beal. But if they can’t make it happen, then they should see if they can get Russ for about half the price.

Point Zion cannot be compromised

Why would that compromise point zion? Russ is a power forward

At this point I actually believe the Wizards will never, ever trade Beal

https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1414954477069684737?s=20 Also, the Pels are apparently making it known that they are not going to match a significant contract if one is offered to Lonzo. Which, duh.

Sexton would make a lot of sense for the Knicks, they were the first team that jumped out to me as one who could use him and also might have stuff the Cavs could be interested in getting back. Isaiah Todd only working out for lottery teams is, uh, optimistic though I also have no idea why Utah would be trying to work him out in the first place. Please hire me to run the draft, Ryan Smith.

Colin Sexton does really seem like a Thibs PG.

Kibner posted:https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1414954477069684737?s=20 What would the advantage be for that? Other teams might be more likely to make an offer if they figure he's what they need, but if none do make a sizable offer, it just insults him for no reason. It's essentially telling their player to gently caress off, but in a really passive aggressive way.

The exact quote is: quote:New Orleans is unlikely to match a significant offer sheet on Ball, sources said. Sounds more like it's from the agent than the team.

Kibner posted:Lonzo for Sexton: who says no? Sexton would fit in NO I'd think. Fit between BI, him and Zion would be interesting but I think it would work especially if you had Sexton run the 2nd unit himself a lot more. And if his market rate is higher than you'd like to pay, well you get 1 more year than Lonzo before he walks. I think Lonzo is better than most people on this board do but I don't see what Cleveland would really do with him.

Trading BI for a guard just makes to much sense, so naturally Griffon won’t do it.

https://twitter.com/AmNotEvan/status/1414960205746540545?s=19 okay I don't mind trading Sexton but this cannot possibly be the package lol Obi Toppin is a year older and was terrible last year and Kevin Knox barely qualifies as a NBA player.

he does basically the exact same stuff Ingram does but is also short and worse on defense what is not to like

Oh I wasn’t talking about Sexton. I just like to day dream about Cade + Zion.

Why would Detroit trade the number 1 pick? Isn’t Cade supposed to be a special player?

Isn’t Cade supposed to be a special player? They would not and definitely not for Brandon Ingram and a bunch of picks that may be in the 20s. But writers are bored and need copy so somehow the number 1 pick being on the block has become a thing.
