Top Hats Monthly posted:4 wins I'm looking forward to Zach LaVine vs MCW, personally. If this was in Philly I would peg the Sixers as favorites in this game but I think it's a coin flip instead.

"Thus far in the NBA season, 140 players have started ten or more games. Of those 140, 139 of them have posted at least one game where they’ve shot over 50% from the field." Josh Smith stars as Mr. 140

If the Sixers didn't tank and we're say 35-45 last year what nba superstar fa could they have signed. That's my question.

None of those guys are superstars except LeBron and he isn't coming to philadelphia even if they were 72-10.

Unless you're talking nonbasketball related superstardom. Butler and Kawhi are cusp type guys that you could sign cross your fingers. I can't remember the last time the Spurs had a great FA coup, so I'm not really sure what winning has to do with it. Maybe I'm just forgetting something.

Intruder posted:Why do I keep hyping myself up for the possibility of LMA to the Rockets I've legitimately sold myself on Gasol replacing Duncan after this year so I feel you there. I'm not sure the Rockets need much more. As long as Dwight is okay being second to Harden and plays with effort if he's not getting fed the ball I think the Rockets won't need to add a piece to be a contender.

I'm not sure they've really made much of an attempt though. And while winning doesn't necessarily make you a great FA destination, losing a lot can make you a lot less attractive, even to more mid-tier guys. And I think the way they're losing would be a particular turn off since I would think a subset of people who tends to be highly competitive by nature would likely be turned off by a franchise who is fine with essentially throwing games.

The last time the Spurs had a bunch of money and everyone was hyped for a FA coup they ended up with Rasho Nestrovic instead of Alonzo Mourning, Jermaine O'Neal, or Jason Kidd. Oh and I think they traded for Ron Mercer and Hedo Turkoglu before he was good After that, SA probably thought trading or signing talent was overrated and decided to just do it all themselves WhyteRyce fucked around with this message at 00:41 on Dec 4, 2014 |

Intruder posted:Why do I keep hyping myself up for the possibility of LMA to the Rockets Because there's a very good chance he wants to go back to Texas? I hope he stays though, he'll probably never be as beloved as Drexler but he could easily end up retiring as the best Blazer of all time. Which is really weird to think about considering where he was 9 years ago.

Joel Embiid is going to be so good if he isn't an Odenesque glass giant. Everyone is going to forget about the 7 or 8 disgraceful years it took for him to become the best player in the year.

I'm pretty glad we didn't get Kidd actually. That whole deal was pretty silly. I'm glad it didn't sour things with Parker.

Are you sure it was a weakness he fixed, or him forcing the ball because his other teammates are really bad and Evan Turner?

The Spurs aren't big players in free agency because their best players were drafted by them and taking up the biggest chunk of the cap. Teams with cap room are often teams that haven't drafted well. I'm fairly optimistic the Bulls will match any offer on Butler.
