Just saw the highlight of LeBron shooting a 3 in the corner then turn around to talk to his teammates. Now that's cold blooded. Amazing he can do that since his legacy is ruined and his skills have diminished.

Andrew Wiggins has 9 blocks in the last two games. NINE.

He's been the 2nd best defender on the Warriors this year after Draymond. Offensively he'll need to get his percentages up, but mostly it's because he's got the greenest light ever with the 2nd unit on this squad. Still he's 43.1% from the field and 39.3% from 3.

I've probably slandered him the most around here in the past, but he looks like a different player in all honesty. Regression can always happen, but effort thus far has been fantastic.
Who knew he had an account on here seeing us disparage him?

I've seen this movie before.

Shams and Woj are both claiming that a Harden deal is imminent.

After my Seahawks abrupt demise last weekend, this trade is going to be such a kick in the junk.

This trade will take up a lot of chatter on here the rest of the week.

The Warriors are getting the best of the trade with the Wolves.....he's fitting in nicely.

I'm not really arguing about who got the better end of the trade. I'm simply pointing out that Wiggins has had streaks of being really really good in the past.

I think Philly made an offer knowing things in Houston are about to blow the fuck up.

Unless it is a pennies on the dollar deal, which I can't see being possible, I'm going to hate any offer they made for him

Simmons, a contract and a few first rounders.....Harden and Embiid can work.

Houston just needs to get it over with and do that Harden/Simmons swap. Toss in a couple picks too. It's the best deal Houston is gonna get. Playing Simmons as sort of a super version prime Draymond Green with Wall at point, Gordon, Wood and Tucker is a pretty good group. Still have Boogie off the bench.

Houston FO was reading this board last night

Kyrie is going to pull a Ricky Williams and just retire abruptly so he can pursue other things. Except Kyrie is probably going to do something in the advocacy arena, whereas Ricky just wanted to get blunted all day. So kind of the same thing.

If he doesn't really want to play that much, he should at this point. I would respect the hell out of him if he just came out and said he's retiring to pursue advocacy work. But he can't keep doing this stuff of having one foot in, one foot out and not letting anyone that matters (his team, not the media and fans) what he's actually doing
