On many nights, he was the Pistons 2nd best player.

Knows hill role, doesn't try to upset the apple cart.

He can chip in more than Svi....

Toronto?

I think they were better than Philly. I don't think they'd keep up with them today but who knows. I like Philly's chances a lot more now than I did...what, 10 hours ago?

Bucks have Toronto's number. Toss up with Boston. Something's happening today or tomorrow because standing pat isn't an option with the moves they've already made.

@flyerhawk , @Sparhawk , @knowyourenemy , @Taddy Mason ....

Congrats, Fellas.

I can't wait to see your team once guys settle into their roles.

 

[DJ]

He's been living the Highlife in Phoenix.

Got dealt for Anderson.

I gotta believe Anderson gets bought out at some point and I can't believe he forgot how to shoot.

Would you have liked the Conley Gasol trade?

Toronto is trying to improve.

Still got a day and a half to make moves.

He went full on Nick Anderson.

So, how are we ranking the East?

Call it trade induced psychosis...

But, I have it....

1. Philly

2. Raptors

3. Bucks

4. Celtics

I'm not a Lowry fan at all so, yeah, I'd take him over Lowry.

All things honest, and I don't even know if there's a player out there like this for them to chase, I would probably want someone younger than Conley but regardless I don't have much faith in Lowry carrying this team anywhere and I thought he should've been moved at the same time Derozan was.

Freak is on a mission.

Bledsoe and Middleton are on a mission......to get paid...lol

But, I mostly like the way BRO-pez fits with Giannis.

All that being said.....

You are likely right.

Celtics are better than their record.

Ps. Did you know 4 of the 5 Bucks starters are free agents this Summer?

Yikes!

The Bucks better handle their business to prevent The Freak from engaging in Pre-agency.

Next summer has some free agent Pg's.

Collison, Rubio, Geordge Hill, Pat Beverley, Bledsoe and a restricted Deangelo Russell of the top of my head.

Not sure how interested you'd be in those guys.

Getting Tobias was a huge get certainly. But Boban was a really important piece for the Sixers to get as well. Backup C and backup PG were our most pressing needs.

 

[dtgold88]

Reporter just asked Lebron if the kids being the subject of trade rumors affected them tonight:

"I don't know. I've never been a part of that."

why I was always glad to have him on my team but thought he was such a dick.

 

[DJ]

I believe Philly tries to keep Harris....

 

[shopson67]

This will go over the heads of most in this group who would think more of him if he get a dozen techs a year and was a fake toughguy.

Nobody here is doubting he can play or his toughness. His issues are availability and pay scale vs the cap. $30M per is a lot to invest in a 3rd option on a good team if that player isn't really in their physical prime any longer.

He can play.

Some people just see him as a novelty.

That couldn't be further from the truth.

He's not a starter.

He's best as a situational backup.

But, he can give you quality minutes.

 

[shopson67]

Yeah, Walton didn't seem to trust Svi much. Some games he would get in the game early, other games not at all.

 

[Mecca]

No doubt.

That is a terrific core four.

Giannis and James would fit well together.


Maybe.

 

[dtgold88]

Magic Johnson strikes again!!! BOOO YAAAAAAAHHHH

who says this guy cant do it all? GM FUCKING EXTRAORDINAIRE

Can you imagine the crap Gilbert and their FO would get if they had Lebron and this was their big move?

I know..I know. Still time.
