Luckily I was able to sell, although not for a very good price.

The Lakers win straight up bet cool, @WiggyRuss?

I was wondering what I was going to be thankful for this year. This is it.

You can bold comments on here?


Learned something today.....

LOL This is US is the best show on TV by far and it is a family show. Not sure why anyone is acting like it is a female show

If you're not a family man then it isn't for you.

I have heard it is a good show- have not watched but have heard it is good.

Right now I have been running through "The Handmaid's Tale". Pretty fucking creepy let me tell ya- really good though.

As for your Heat- you were right on McGruder. Really nice low-cost, efficient player that the Heat have the knack for finding.

Whiteside with a huge statistical game in a home loss to the Nets. I feel like that kind of shit happens all the time.

Said it on the Heat board the other day. The only 3 players I care to have on the roster after this year are McGruder, Richardson, and Bam

Pelicans struck out on Butler; now eyeing Wizards’ Porter

Porter would be an interesting low-cost (in talent, not $) option for the Pelicans- a team that badly needs a wing.

If Porter played well, and hit the 3 well with the Pelicans, it would really help them.

Holliday and Payton are a very solid PG combo (yes I know payton is not healthy right now). Mirotic, Randle are great complimentary bigs with Davis.

Porter makes a lot of sense for them if they think he cna play at a high level and would be worth the $.

 

[thunderc]

Porter is one of the more overpaid players in the league, not a good contract.

And so is Wall, sadly for them.

 

[thunderc]

Yeah Wall definitely seems past his prime already.

 

[tlance]

Yeah Wall definitely seems past his prime already.

I would not say he is past his prime, but he isn't a leader and he has bad knees that will be a huge factor by the time his current mega contract is up.

The Wizards really need to move him for whatever they can get now while teams still see a disgruntled allstar PG and not a horrendously bad contract. Because 2-3 years from now that is what it will be, IMO.

I don't think they can get anything for Wall. IMO, their best case scenario is being able to dump off Wall and taking back some bad contracts to replace him.

Maybe the Suns could get really creative and find a 3rd trade partner looking to dump salary that they could then hand to the Wizards.

Handmaid's Tale is def one of the most fucked up things I have ever seen. Love it.
I watched both seasons within a few sittings.
Did you know it was based off of a book, and a movie (which I need to see)?

Don't blame Whiteside. Without him they lose by 30.
It's not his fault the team has a ton of injuries which forces them to play with different rotations every night.
Plus, their outside shooting has been horrific. Again, not his fault at all.

Handmade's Tale the book is ok. It is pretty messed up but more of a political message than a compelling story.

You might be right, but I hope you aren't!

I would love something like Josh Jackson, Ryan Anderson and a 1st for Wall and Rivers

How many points do you want on this Lakers-Cavs game, @WiggyRuss?

Does that work within trade rules? Thought contracts had to match within 75%.....
