Apparently people were legit concerned he was gonna fall off cause he looked hammered and the guard rail only went up to his knees.

i could see wiggins going to the heat or spurs and learning how to play basketball.

Not a bad idea IMO. Either the Heat continue running on the treadmill or they managed to teach Wiggins a work ethic and he lives up to his potential and plays like he does against OKC every game.

"and we have never planned in any way to ask for permission to speak to him during our process" i.e. we sounded him out via backchannels and he wasn't interested, so we decided not to officially approach the Raptors.

I think so. I'd probably say it was closer to a tie, but it forced to choose I think Siakam's scoring and constant transition threat was more important. I mean, Toronto really got help from a ton of guys on that roster though, so it's kind of an academic-only type argument.

The difference between the Raptors wins and losses were basically if Siakam had a bad shooting night or not.

Are they even going to keep him? I figured they'd let him walk for whatever dumb contract someone will give him (any contract offered to Terry Rozier is by definition dumb), especially if they get another PG.

All I know is Ainge has always spoken highly of Rozier(and he's survived through multiple trades) and Rozier has always been pretty vocal about wanting that starting 1 spot. Maybe someone gives him an offer, who knows

Why would the Rockets be after Butler? Yes he's a plus defender (though for how long as he ages is questionable), but offensively I don't see how he fits with Harden and CP3. Tobias Harris would be a great fit for them at the 4.

I think it's less about fit and just more 'add as much talent as possible' which honestly isn't such a bad strategy. Chemistry wise though, yeah that's seems like a powder keg.

I was sad when PJ Tucker didn't re-sign with Toronto, but I got it because he wanted to win a championship and took a pay cut for a better chance at it.

Hahaha

Yeah I wonder if he regrets that now. Though if we kept Tucker we wouldn't have Kevin Love bodying CJ miles like 6 times in a row and maybe Masai hesitates to fire Casey

Boston turning into a treadmill team after accumulating assets for the whole decade is hilarious

Hindsight is always 20/20 but ending up with none of Jimmy Butler, Paul George, Anthony Davis or Kawhi Leonard when all of them have been available during that period definitely seems like a missed opportunity.

He apparently knew about and leaked the Al Horford to Sixers trade before it happened. How this makes him an insider on Lakers/Kawhi is anyone's guess.
