You can have one of these power forwards in their prime for the next 15 years on your team. Who are you taking? Tell me now please.

Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Dirk Nowitzki, Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Anthony Davis. Pau Gasol. Kevin Love, Al Horford...
Shawn Kemp, Kevin McHale, Dennis Rodman, Draymond Green, Chris Webber, LaMarcus Aldridge, Elvin Hayes, Chris Bosh, Zach Randolph, Jabari Smith Jr.

I should also include LeBron James or Magic Johnson because technically those two GOATS can play all five positions so I guess power forward is okay.



I posted this video because if the Rockets end up drafting Bronny James in a couple years I could see LeBron coming to Houston to end his career.
Bronny James (18) is only two years younger than Jabari Smith Jr. (just turned 20). Neither is of the legal age to drink a beer in the state of Texas (21).

Do you guys feel old yet? :love:

Lakers need to trade for Dame Lillard or sign Kyrie and draft Bronny

Last Dance of Lebron career in LA would be

Starting 5- Lebron/AD/ Kyrie or Lillard/ Reaves/ Hachimura
Bench unit - Bronny/ Schroeder/Lonnie Walker/Bamba/Vanderbilt

I forgot to mention Blake Griffin. A 6x NBA all-star. Still 34 years old now but injuries really derailed what could've been a Hall of Fame career...
His first two healthy years in the NBA he was a 22-12 and 20-10 player. His rebound totals never got higher unfortunately. He was fun to watch.
He sort of reminds me of the power forward version of Dwight Howard. That elite athleticism was critical. Once it went the skills weren't there.

Can Boston come alive tonight and keep extending the series? I may be wrong but I think it's a bad look for the current NBA if both conference finals end up in a sweep.

I'd have been back to 0.00 Forum Gold if I had bet on the Lakers. Tempted to bet on the Celtics (they got this!), but I'm trying to slowly work my way up grinding on Ladder Slasher and D2R on the side (but mostly LS). Also I don't think Proint will jinx it. The Celtics have to come through and win tonight. I'm 100% positive the Boston Celtics will win tonight. I just read that former NFL player and wrestling superstar Goldberg was injured in a tractor accident? Hmm. He's 56 years old. Looks like his face was all gashed up with bloody marks all over (New York Post posted a photo). Not as serious as it could've been though.
