It'd be funny if the Warriors just sent like, Matt Barnes to the White House.

To fight Jared.

Also so far the only source of that WH snub rumor is the tweet saying it.

"Warriors Expected To Decline Possible White House Invitation" is the headline on RealGM, Trump should be smart and not invite them.

Either way this goes, it's going to ruin the NBA part of the internet for like two weeks.

So if the Sixers end up with Fultz, who do they play at the 1?

zoux
Apr 28, 2006

Sure, but I thought the plan was to develop Ben Simmons to run the point? Do they move him to the 3 then?

Brett Brown:

quote:

When I say “point guard,” I mean “point guard.” You know, who takes the ball out of bounds, who receives the ball when the ball goes in the basket, who brings it up the floor after a free throw. I’m not talking about Draymond, I’m not talking about LeBron, you know, I’m talking about a point guard. And so I intend on trying this. You always get into conversations, “well that’s fine, who does he guard?” I don’t see him guarding the opposition’s point guard. It could end up he guards who guards him, so you’re not cross-matched in transition defense. Having said that, I expect that other teams aren’t gonna go put Chris Paul on Ben Simmons, or Isaiah Thomas on Ben Simmons. And so I feel like it’s gonna be interesting, it is a challenge, it is ambitious. But my starting point is where I end up, he’s got a quality that he wants the ball and he loves to pass. And so we’re gonna persevere, and see where this plays out.
