[The Q]

Your posts are confusing. The one you were questioning was 5th guard, not 5th PG, which I originally pointed out. I believe the original intent was to identify Nunn as the 5th guard depth-wise, not 5th PG.

Schroder is the starting PG. Bev is listed as a PG, but is a combo guard at best (and could be moved in another trade). Russ comes off the bench as the backup PG (could also still be moved). Pippen is a PG that has barely seen game time yet and isn't ready for meaningful minutes yet.

If Russ is moved, Lakers will need to either have a PG included in that move or pick up a free agent. Lakers don't rely heavily on a PG (at least offensively) since Lebron is often the de facto playmaker regardless of position.

I read it as 5th pg

That’s my bad then lol

Who?

I'm just guessing....Christian Braun?

 

[The Q]

Please, no.

I beg of you…lol

Clippers interested in Kyle Lowry, Fred VanVleet

But other teams will pursue Conley too, meaning that the Jazz will likely hold out for the best possible offer until closer to the deadline. So L.A. must scour the rest of the league. League source…

My guess is Jackson wall and roco

But I’m still not sure why miami does that

Lakers could move Walker for Reddish, since they are unlikely to be able to keep him beyond this season depending on their cap situation after the trade deadline. They need to pay Bryant first IMO. Maybe it becomes a 2 for 2 trade, although I'm not sure who else the Lakers would want on the cheap end of the Knicks roster, other than maybe Sims (who likely isn't very available). Quickley has been mentioned as on the block?

Bev's contract would be needed for a potential Richardson trade (or with Walker for a Bog trade).

Quickley has been mentioned and sounds like his price is dropping too.

There were teams with a legitimate interest in Quickley back when the Knicks were listening to offers more intently. I heard multiple decision-makers from other organizations lust over his impressive plus-minus numbers, which they believe paint him as a defensive maestro. But momentum has certainly spun in the opposite direction of a trade — though (and this is always a necessary disclaimer with more than two weeks to go until the deadline), anything can happen.

One team offered three first-round picks for OG Anunoby

At least one team has previously offered three first-round picks for Anunoby, and Siakam is worth more. Trading both would be a near-total reset around Scottie Barnes.

Good.

Why would the Pelicans want Collins?

You paying him that much to be a bench player?

Or, shuffling Ingram to SG?

That would actually be kinda frightening.

Jonas, Zion, Collins, Ingram and CJ…..


Yikes.

You lose defense without Herb.

But, the offense….

Pelicans reach out to Hawks regarding John Collins

The New Orleans Pelicans reached out to the Atlanta Hawks regarding forward John Collins, but talks were merely preliminary, according to league sources.

He does have that frat-boy/douchebag look.

He does have that frat-boy/douchebag look.

And he can really shoot

 

[Shanemansj13]

I disagree because they wouldn’t be sending much back to Miami

Which is why I wonder why Miami would do it

I guess it depends on what his role is in LA. Is backing up Reggie for limited minutes…Conley is better for that role imo. Plus Conley has a ton non-guaranteed for next season. You are stuck with Lowry for two seasons basically

Bro, Reggie is a DNP now.

Well, he plays a little because Wall is injured.

But, the Clippers don’t even start any guards anymore.

T Mann and George start.

Whomever we get will be a starter, which is why it can’t be Lowry.

Im not even saying he’s bad,

But, with that contract….

With the amount of games he misses…

How can they even be considering this shit with Kawhi and George’s part time playing asses?

Conley easily starts in lac

Wall and Reggie suck lol

 

[Mecca]

I’m sorry…

Im still stuck on the fact that Lara Pippen is dating Jordan’s son.

Im not a Scottie fan.

But, this bitch has no respect for him, herself nor her children.

She’s disgusting.

 

[Mecca]

All the reason you should keep him.

Everything I have seen says you will.

Oh yeah. I can't watch Nuggets games because I have comcast and refuse to change because of the sports package I have.

But I have listened to alotta Nuggets games and have seen them on tv a couple of times. Could go to a game or two. But I'm at the point where I don't wanna give owner Stan Kroenke my money. He's the reason that for the 4th season a row can't watch. Just another greedy billionaire.

That shit with Porter Jr little brother is shameful.

He drives drunk, kills a woman, seriously injured her passenger, gets out of jail on 2k bond.

You murder a person with your vehicle and your bail is $2,000?

We aren’t talking manslaughter.

His charge is VEHICULAR HOMICIDE.

2k.

I can afford to pay that EASILY.

So, a guy with a brother making 30 mil?

Sad.

He was out of jail in under 2 hours.

We don’t value human life.

Yep agree. You don’t Lowry starting. Conley is better for that role

Holy shit I hadn't heard that. My cable was out starting yesterday around noon until about a half hour ago.

That's just insane. No way he should be out right now.
