Exactly, which is why they should be all in on this:



There's just no reason to prolong this roster. If they want to try to build around VV Boucher and Siakam that's fine, although I don't see that working out all that great either, but they might as well cash in on Lowry while they can.

Not sure Miami makes much sense though - seems risky for them when they could realistically stay outside the playoff picture. Wonder if Boston doesn't try to get out from under Kemba and make a play for Kyle.

There are quite a few bad teams ahead of Miami in the East standings. I would be shocked if they don’t make the playoffs this year.

Harden is who I'm talking about. I don't like him and the only difference between him and World B. Flat is WBF is legit crazy while Harden is just petulant and selfish.

I don't see Harden adjusting his game much, if at all. Maybe he's learned and will do what's necessary to win. But past behavior is a very good predictor of future behavior and his past behavior gives zero indication that he will adjust his game.
Since the trade....

Harden is averaging 23.6ppg (on 49% and 38%), 12apg, and 8.1rpg.

I agree with most of what you said but I still like the Harden-KD duo.

KD's averaging almost 6apg and I think Harden could average 10apg if he decides to change his game and play the role of PG.
BOOM.

They could very easily shit the bed on their upcoming western road trip and find themselves a few more games outside the playoff picture. Wouldn't say them missing would be shocking at this point. And then if they do think they're gonna make it but only as a 7 or 8 is it really worth laying out the kind of package it would take to get Lowry?

Just like James will pass MJ one day.
Brady and Lebron are different. Brady (along with Bellichick) established a dynasty that's hard to replicate in football given the parity that exists. Lebron has hopped from team to team not really establishing a dynasty like Jordan had (where in basketball you have greater control). Skillset wise, I don't think Brady's the best, but his ability to win in Tampa this year gives me very little argument going forward against him.

DJ once again spouting bs from his warped memory with no backup.
FACT. We all know it.

Like....

"Butler was a horrible acquistion."

"Riley has lost his fastball."

"The Cavs will get back to the Finals before the Lakers with a broken down James."

Etc, the list is endless.
