I'd rather have Tristan.

for 1 game, I'm taking Whiteside, for the long haul, give me the guy less likely to go to jail...Tristan 100%

I'd rather have Tristan.

If I had a team in place and needed someone to play a role as a 4th man, Tristan would be my guy as well.

If I'm building a team and needed a guy to build a team around, I'm going with Whiteside. Whiteside has much more upside as a #2 on a good team. Tristan is limited in that capacity and is actually best suited in his current role with the Cavs.

That Favors/Gobert combo is going to be a force for years to come. They still need some development, but solid, solid foundation.

Agree.

I was just trolling.

What do you think about Olidipo?

Gosh, that's a lot for a guy who can't shoot.

I guess they can teach him.

But, he's a hell of an athlete.

Can't teach that.

Orlando didn't want to pay him after paying Fournier...guess that's why they shipped him out.

But, Ibaka is a bad trade for that roster.

He is a freak athlete, but I think that's too much. It just doesn't seem like he's a good fit for RW.

Man role players are making 100 mill lol

Steven Adams and the Thunder closing in on a 4 year deal worth 100 million.





WOW!!!

 

[Bolts]

I'm surprised Adams is getting that much, solid role player but shouldn't get $25mil a year. Gobert really helps on defense, which might make him worth his extension. Oladipo has a lot of talent and great athlete, but needs to improve his shooting especially playing with RW. Dieng is another good role player but $36mil cheaper than Adams. Good time to be an NBA player with how much money is being thrown around.

Thunder shook after Durant leaving.

Can't risk it.

If these contracts continue to get out of control.......I may not watch basketball anymore.











It's getting outlandish and a bit ridiculous.

 

[bksballer89]

What does contracts have to do with watching basketball? LOL is it coming out of your pocket?

 

[bksballer89]

Terrible schedule tonight.

 

[Demonjoe93]

Man, Dwight's FT shooting is awful tonight.
