Yeah, I love it.

Before I saw the players included, I assumed Kennard or Ibaka was a goner.

Nope.

All the talking heads said the Clippers would be sellers.

I don't think they are done and they could shed salary.

But, they won't dump guys to just save a buck .

They got value back and a open roster spot.

There is zero incentive to tank.
well shit.....

Ballmer is worth like 70 billion or something - EASILY the richest owner in the NBA

Gilbert is a far-away 2nd at like 35 billion

after that there is another big gap between the 3rd richest owner.

its Ballmer's play-toy. Good for him. I am sure he doesnt give a shit if he takes a 30 mill hit

They’re like 2.5 games out of picking in the 20s

Could easily turn ibaka and some of the young guys into a guy who will actually play

That's the biggest problem I see with him on defense. He's always trying to "make a play". He doesn't understand that playing good, fundamental defense will provide opportunities to make plays. He doesn't need to force it.

I think he understands, he just can’t help himself.

He is like the most impulsive person in the world.

It is a trade off to the boundless energy he plays with.

holy shit that would change the game.

Okoro would prob. have to be in there though huh? Prob. Sexton too and a pick or picks.

I HAVE seen that mentioned though.
Yeah I don't see it happening especially they want to possibly keep Sexton long-term. The offer would probably be Sexton, Okoro and picks.

Josh Giddey was named Westetn Comference rookie of the month for the third straight month. Also he just became the youngest since Lebron to record 500 points, 200 rebounds and 200 assists. Just hope his 3 pt shot improves over time as things slow down for him.

Giddey, Cunningham and Barnes are all right at the heels of Mobley for ROY.

helluva rookie class.

Kuminga looks like a keeper too. This was a GREAT draft to be in the top 8 picks.

you are closer to it- what is the story with Dinwiddie?

how bad is it? Think he will be there in a week?

He's a 19 year old kid. If he puts the right amount of time in during the off season his long distance % will improve. For a teenager he's impressive. Alotta potential.

I have stopped predicting what the Wizards will do.

I think he probably gets traded, but I am hoping he isn’t the only major move.

But he probably will be, and the Wizards will go all out for that 9/10 seed.

is it untenable right now?

he is making 3 years 54 million- wonder if they get rid of him what comes back- itll have to be something unless its like the Thunder that take him- and theyd probably want an asset.

Sounds like it.

But it doesn’t matter. This team has no upside with or without Dinwiddie.

So I would prefer not attach an asset just to move him.
