Ill quote my post


Porzingis is a god awful defender (one of the worst in the NBA), he's a shit rebounder, and he has no low post game.

Believing that he's anything more than a #3 on a true contender is crazy talk.

Kendrick Nunn 2 years 10mill with Lakers. Turning down significant money to ring chase.
Ok just give the Lakers a ring next year.


Why, because they're signing a bunch of old and washed up past their prime players? Most of that team is in their mid or late 30's lmao

It'll all come down to the health of LeBron and AD, as it always has. These other signings really aren't making them much better except maybe a better locker room presence with veteran leadership, but i don't think they were lacking that before either way.

There will be so many questions around injuries and load management.

He averages 20 pts a game and 10 rebounds a game..

I believe if Dallas Played him like a Real Center instead of Like Kevin Love his offensive rebounds would go up.

Dallas doesnt even tread Porzinigs like the third best on the team and he still outscores everyone except Luka.

Ill Take a Chris Bosh over a Goran Dragic anyday of the week

meanwhile Phoenix Suns...

jokes aside Chris Paul is still godly


I wasnt happy with the 4 year deal, I heard last year is team option, and third year might be partial, soon we will know. The Suns were pretty much tied to cp3 at this point, since it would be hard to find someone to replace him, maybe Lonzo. Cp3 had wrist surgery after the finals, there are othe things he brings to table.

the Bulls have good name recognition no doubt and they've done well for themselves... but practically speaking how is this going to work?

DeMar, Vooch, Lonzo, and LaVine all need the ball in their hands to be truly effective and only Lonzo sort of excels by deferring, playmaking, or playing off ball

Wolves trade Ricky Rubio to the Cavs for Taurean Prince, a 2nd round pick and cash
:cry:

I don’t like this trade because Rubio was Ant’s best friend on the team and he adored Rubio. Trade wasn’t worth possibly ticking Ant off
