ahh, listening to Linkin Park on a Saturday...

so, what have i been missing...?

 

[Black Adam]

Nah, never watched Manga.

btw Manga would be Japanese comics, and Anime is Japanese cartoon movies essentially...

Were the police trying to get you to confess to something?

I'm really not sure if they make it. We're obviously a bad team without Waiters in the lineup. Schedule isn't very easy

I'm assuming Cavs sit Big 3 again, and Wiz are also resting for at least the last game of not both.
Big game tomorrow vs Denver.
Pacers next game at Cavs.

Really could come down to tiebreakers.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

I think the market comes down a little
I think less teams will have money then last offseason
I think Waiters would only have 1 year in the last few where he was better than mediocre- a year where he sat out extended games twice with injuries.

Hopefully you're right.
Regardless of cap space, teams really need to consider the player and % of cap space his salary will occupy.
Last summer was ridiculous.

nah, they'd have force me to listen to Country and Western for THAT to happen...

Forgot to tell you guys that former Knick Kurt Thomas was sitting across from me yesterday as I was having lunch

 

[Bolts]

Kings tank took a wrong turn today. Now alone in 7th and close to both 8th and 9th place. I'll be happy with the 6th/7th and 10th/11th picks.

Led the NCAA in scoring and rebounding the last season he played in college hoops.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Worst loss of season.
I guess it was better to beat Pistons and blow this one then the other way around, but we really should have seperated from Pacers tonite.

Porzingis is def. better and DEFINITELY more valuable then anyone on the Heat.

lmfao just gotta take a jab at the Heat, huh...?

 

[bksballer89]

Porzingis is def. better and DEFINITELY more valuable then anyone on the Heat.

But yet he can't lead his more talented team to 35 wins in the sorry eastern conference?

 

[Black Adam]

Porzingis is definitely better than i first thought, but to say he'd be more valuable than anyone on the Heat roster is way off...

what you dont agree with me?

 

[Black Adam]

what you dont agree with me?

would you trade him for say, Whiteside...?

wait, knowing you, you would...

no one sane would. Porzingis is a 21 years old - is 7' 3"- is a great kid- and has the potential to be a multi time all star. He is freaking 7'3" and shooting 36% from 3 at 21 years old- thats bonkers. He can pass, shoot, block shots.

If there was a re-draft of the NBA today- Porzingis goes REALLY high.

Being 7'3" and that athletic is unbelievable.

Didn't answer my question ma'am

eh maybe. if memory serves he was drafted at 10 by the Knicks and was skinny as a rail. the Heat took Justise Winslow that draft at #8...

Justise does ok, but yeah MAYBE i would've taken Kristaps, but in reality i doubt too many people knew he'd develop like this...
