2021-2022 NBA Season

Westbrook is amongst the best athletes ever to play the game, I’m talking the ultra elite level.

Likely a bit to blame for some of weaknesses too. He's just wound too tight to have enough touch on his shot.

They seem to have a lot of wings just not that pure SG. Stevens and Okoro are damn good wing defenders, Okoro has the size to be a 2. He was in a great rhythm before he went protocol but he at his best when he is aggressive like today. I would love if they got Gordon somehow

sure wouldn't mind someone else, but don't forget Okoro still not even 21 (close).

 

[dtgold88]

Not as easy to get those slower prospects playing time to develop when you're ahead of schedule and winning unfortunately. Good problem to have though.

Very true but with so many guys out (Stevens hurt now, too) might be able to work him in...looked decent yesterday.

No. Get the damn shot.

Saw a short clip on sportscenter a couple of minutes ago about Kyrie. He was asked about his vaccine status. And said he doesn't want to bring science into the topic. He's put himself above the organization and his teammates. Proof he thinks he's more important than anyone else.

The Lakers came to play last night, especially on defense.

Take it 1 game at a time.

LeBron's having a helluva season. Really impressive considering he was past his prime the moment he joined the Lakers.

 

[Wamu]

Boston can't be at all satisfied with 6th though. They need a major move of some sort.

Trade Jaylen & Marcus to the Mavs for Luka.

If someone gave me these 2 options for the heat season then im choosing option A. Giannis do a lot of talking for a team that was kyrie not turning his ankle away from getting the floor wiped in 5 by the Nets last year

A) Beat the Bucks but don't make the finals

B) Avoid the Bucks and make the finals

You might be right Wiggy but I also think that Pelinka can manipulate some things to make "room" for Monk so that everybody is happy. But yea, it'll depend on what other teams' offer.

Yeah, for him to stay, he'll probably have to be willing to take less. The question is, how much less? He might be willing to stay for a little less if he thinks he can get a ring...but even then, it would likely only be on a 1, maybe 2 year deal.

 

[trojanfan12]

Considering that it was the Heat and the Lakers that made it...I'd say "built for the playoffs"...especially since it was basically the playoffs that happened in the bubble.

Trade Jaylen & Marcus to the Mavs for Luka.

Kemba Randle toppin for Luca

 

[trojanfan12]

The Lakers could offer a first round pick and THT. The question would be if another team would offer a young player with more upside than THT and how much upside the Pistons think (or can be convinced) that THT has.

 

[Wamu]

Kemba Randle toppin for Luca

And I thought my trade idea was crazy.

 

[tlance]

Kemba Randle toppin for Luca

I really hope you are joking.

 

[Retroram52]

Or since the Lakers are going to have some trouble retaining Monk, the Lakers could send Monk and the 2027 First Round pick for Grant.

 

[Retroram52]

Great, the Lakers could send Bazemore, Ellington, and Jordon for a second try with Montrezel!
