Going to be a fun season, I think the Timberwolves could be a surprise team this year as well.

Surprise in terms of what? Win total or how far they get in the playoffs?

Not really. With the moves they've made half the league expect them to win at least 50 this year

Suspended Jemele for two weeks. Fucking joke.
Really?

Wow.....hasn't it been like a fricking month?

Eta: Well, she brought that shit on herself.

They told her to tow the line and then she went after Jerry Jones.

I have no issue with what she said.

But, if her boss said to stop using that platform that is company property, she should have.

“Change happens when advertisers are impacted,” she tweeted. “If you feel strongly about JJ’s statement, boycott his advertisers.”

So far, I am going with Kyle Kuzma as the steal of the draft and to be the biggest surprise. Some commentators have said that Utah didn't utilize his talents well and had he been on a better team - would have drafted about tenth.

If he's healthy, great deal.

If he blows another tire and only plays half a Season?

This is about as bad as the Clippers giving Blake a 5 year max.

At least Embiid is still young.

But, 31 games in 3 years is tough to swallow.

Only way this is a bad deal is if Embiid suffers a career ending injury this year. Even if he gets hurt again (season ending, not career) the Sixers were going to pay him because they don't have a choice. With Embiid they have the start to a possible contending caliber nucleus. Without him, they will be lucky to be Trail Blazers East.
