Shumpert has been a good defender here and there but he has a hard time staying consistent with it. I guess as pickups go that's probably one of the better ones unless some people we don't expect get bought out in a month or two.

I have always been on the record that Luka has never been great at basketball between the second half of January until June and so far, for various reasons, I have yet to have this ridiculous statement proven wrong.

The nets should’ve kept david nwaba, even if he is injured currently. Or maybe they could give up a couple picks for Xavier tillman (sorry grizz)

You are right. If I'm going to have someone play designated defender Nwaba is pretty close to the best you can get there.

It should have been Kareem or Wilt but mostly Magic/Bird and then some people would say Russell because of all the titles. Like someone else said the league mostly did not exist in the public consciousness until Magic and Bird.

If you want to feel better New Yorker Twitter is still trying to insert him into the ROTY argument so if LaMelo gets hurt or something you may end up right.

Both Kawhi and Giannis have spoken out against holding the ASG. There has to be a cancellation being announced soon.

Draymond talks about being surprised that a superstar's out of shape, and it's not Harden or Doncic. I suspect he's referring to AD.

Why in the world would you suspect that? The Lakers hit training camp a month and a half after winning the title and then basically played four games a week until this week. When did he even have time to get out of shape?

Dort was in the lottery on some boards but he was really misused at ASU so not surprisingly it was pretty difficult for non-regular Pac-12 watchers to have eyes on him. I definitely thought he'd get drafted though.

On Monday's game in that same situation, Lebron pivoted like he was going to go left, then went right and got an easy bucket. I just think last night he thought hitting a fade anyway would've been cooler.
