2022 NBA Offseason thread

[tlance]

This last part is where I might disagree with you.

If you're blowing it up like Hiroshima, getting 6 firsts for Beal is a good start. But I don't think the Wiz are blowing it up since they could've gotten firsts for KCP and Kuz at the TD and didnt' do either.

Yeah, they aren’t smart enough to do that.

But you might be right about the latter.

 

[tlance]

Thought it was obvious bs.



Really, when was that?



And?

Do you think this proves something?

Well, when these crazy trade ideas are posted about the Lakers, you say it is a “long shot”.

When posted about another team, you are much more likely to come out and say it is total BS.

So there is that.

Where kawhi at?

Probably San Diego or with Jack Harlow...lol

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

BS.

Please find 1 occasion of me posting a ridiculous trade idea as a suggestion for an actual deal.

You won’t.

And most people on here don’t do that.

Don’t post someone else’s idea when you know full well it is total BS.

Yeah, you don't do that.

Lol makes one look forward to NBA Summer league...

I am to see how Wiseman looks. It'll be his first time playing in it.

 

[trojanfan12]

Then why all the back and forth on your end about it?

I was answering questions, trying to explain what the article said about it and trying to clarify for a couple of folks who, like yourself, jumped to the ''Lakers fans always'' narrative.

You do.

So when you don’t immediately shut down these outlandish ideas @Shanemansj13 is posting to troll people, it encourages the people who don’t know any better.

If I shut down everyone who made outlandish statements etc. There wouldn't be many left posting. lol

I'm not looking to shut down anything. The folks who don't know better can learn, the ones who don't learn provide entertainment by getting clowned. It's how it's always worked.

Who are those people?

Preston, Mann, Boston, PG, Ugly Reggie, Covington and Hartenstein.

That will be interesting for sure. I'm with CL...summer league just got a little more interesting.

People forget how much upside he has.

Prototype modern day big.

 

[trojanfan12]

Preston, Mann, Boston, PG, Ugly Reggie, Covington and Hartenstein.

Are they supposed to be well known or something?

A new boy band maybe?

Lol the athleticism of bigs these days and versatility is a definite change from the bruisers of the past...

Oh no one has forgotten around these parts. He showed flashes when he played, heck his per 36 was 18 and 10 his rookie year. He's going to be really good I think. LOL @WiggyRuss for his usual dumb takes about the Warriors...

Wiggy said his career is over and he can't improve

To me, the two way deals have made it much more interesting and competitive.

Going in drafted is no longer a one-way trip to Lithuania.

You can actually find guys that can crack your rotation , at least for injury purposes, if nothing else.

Look at Austin Reaves.

I already know one guy you guys will land after the draft....

Kai Sotto.

It is written .

The whole sport really. Today's players are all on average much better conditioned and more athletic than in the old days. That's sort of how sports work, humans get better at them over time. Especially ones where the financial rewards go from very little to the enormous sums involved now.

Him and HurricaneFatAss' hate takes are still entertainment all these years...

His floor is Myles Turner.

I expect him to be well above his floor.

It's funny because they both obsess about the NBA as much as we do so it's not like they are casuals that don't know the game. They just start with their feelings about a team/player then make their takes from that instead of being objective.

Oh well, fuck. If WIGGY said it...
