Jota posted:I think they both just love dribbling the air out of the ball too much and are prone to getting tunnel vision, plus aren't great at consistently getting to the rim and drawing fouls so they rely on having to hit a lot of tough shots too often. They're both really good players but they need a much better playmaker paired with them to get everyone easier looks and control the flow. They overreacted to losing Kyrie. Ainge is good with flexibility. Paying Kemba was the death nell. He could have done(almost done?) so many things if he just paid Scary Terry and waited for his moment again.

euphronius posted:Sixers are toast . I honestly believe they didn't want Simmons. No way Tilman wanted to run out a team deep in the luxury tax the next 3 years waiting for Wall's contract to expire. Think about how everyone was baffled after they traded Oladipo and essentially got nothing but picks for Harden. Could of have had Lavert, maybe Allen it was all a sham. They wanted picks and no salary, they just offered Oladipo a contract to look good. Tl;DR Harden was never going to Philly.

Spacebump posted:lol I couldn't even recognize a picture of Mike Trout. Lot's of baseball names in the NBA thread right now. I think the Wolves going for 1.5 billion is the real story. How long ago was the Clippers sale? Not gonna google it but Balmer throwing money around doubled the value of every north American sports team. Look it up the large majority of teams were still valued in the hundreds of millions with only a few in the billion territory. Now the Cowboys and Yankees of the world are valued in several billions and the lowliest of the low teams are at least 1.5 Billion, no offense. Also Lakers beat the Nets and Ben McLemore shoots 5-10 from 3 and the team shoots 55% from deep. Cue the Lebron tweet.

Vinestalk posted:Isaiah Stewart is quietly having a statistically good defensive rookie year on a dog poo poo team where he's almost exclusively coming off the bench. Detroit had a great draft, although i was disappointed they drafted Hayes instead of Halliburton. Hayes will work out in the long run. If the Magic don't get the lottery balls to get number 1 i hope it's Detroit.

Zogo posted:The Assassination of Zion Williamson by the Coward Dwight Howard Inflation doesn't explain the numbers now. Look at how the stock market has grown since the last recession. Look at the housing market since the last time it went in reverse. 7 years? How does 7 years effect anything unless you love small sample sizes? My God man, Trout is a god and Zion makes Lebron look like an 18 year chump. Shaq should be bowing down now to Zion.

I guess such is life. I for one welcome SA millionaires...wait...I don't.

Katana_Warrior posted:owned or not, let's not start lying during our posting meltdowns now Let's focus on the game. Defending, your defense of millionaires is irrelevant when most people who are trolling are on Twitter. I didn't stop the conversation to insult another poster...I simply said the economics of each franchise is beyond simple mathematics. Players getting paid according to to the total worth of a franchise is separate.

Somewhat Heroic posted:To the single Magic fan in this thread I am so sorry for you. I would be that guy...lol. I mean it's probably true but they really needed to get the guy a few days off. He hates coaching these young guys and had an epic rant the other night. So i'm thinking he doesn't stick around for the rebuild.

The Maestro posted:Everybody should want this man on their team Going to ask a question just like the one above about Wiggins. What's his deal? I never watch the Kings. Is hitting three's all he does? Does Buddy play defense? Do his team mates like him? Was wondering why the Kings are so bad and i never hear about Buddy.
