What they've done to Wall should be addressed in the next contract.

I am still laughing at Wiggins statements "I always knew I was elite". Bitch everyone knew you had the talent, what they doubted was your heart. The fact that you had to be the 4th option to shine proved everyone else right. Not you.

Oh that's a good laugh. Yeah no shit he's elite. He's playing in the NBA. Not many get that chance. But he's thinking about himself in the wrong way.

So he could be dancing the dougie outta town before next season?



Makes sense. He's just taking up a roster spot sitting on the bench.

Getting a big head there. He literally had zero pressure on him playing with 3 or 4 future HOFr’s LOL

 

[DJ]

The C's should do that.

 

[DJ]

Just trade them both to the Spurs for....

Everyone and all their picks.

Pop's retirement timeline would speed up...

..at warp speed.

Pop would retire the day after.

LOL.

Dude got trashed. His title is less than 2 weeks old or something like that. He has earned the right to flex a little bit.

 

[DJ]

Brown and Tatum are on the same timeline.

So, I definitely see your point.

But, it's KD.

Don't care who your 2nd best player is.

There are 2 guys I'm not even pausing to trade them to get...

Giannis and KD.

Anthony Davis, George......IDGAF

Dueces.

Yeah, Boston would trade Brown in a heartbeat (as the centerpiece) to land KD.

 

[DJ]

I haven't read thru all the comments so I may have missed your thoughts, but would you give up Bam in a KD trade?

On one hand, you're pretty close to being a team that can win the Finals. Literally a piece a way say if you could pull of a trade for Beal or another type of all star (Dejounte Murray, Donovan Mitchell, etc) and still keep Bam in place. But on the other, there's a good argument that you didn't get there this year because Bam underperformed. KD+Jimmy Butler would be a tough pairing to pass up. Getting a serviceable center to make up for Bam's loss shouldn't be too hard.

They should be willing to do so.....Bam, Robinson, a couple picks, and a couple pick swaps would give them KD and Butler with Lowry to run the show if he can stay healthy. Bring Herro off the bench as the 6th man.

I don’t see KD wanting to play in Boston.

But his statement is stupid. He was a #1 pick that didn’t live up to the hype. He wasn’t the same player in Minny. He got questioned about his work ethic but for good reason. I get it he’s pissed off

 

[DJ]

I don’t see KD wanting to play in Boston.

Why?

I think he just wants to win at this point.

 

[DJ]

Why is Philly trying to land Gordon?

I thought their offseason moves would be to try and address a wing defender and a backup big?

 

[Mecca]

He said he was elite?

Player or defender?

I need some context... Lol

 

[Mecca]

What they've done to Wall should be addressed in the next contract.

Absolutely.

Can't have it both ways.

 

[Mecca]

PJ Tucker and Gordon.

 

[thunderc]

Why?

Maybe, but Kyries thoughts on how he was treated will have an effect. I could be wrong but Durant is a different dude.

 

[Mecca]

Durant will be 34 at the time of next season. I will gladly take that trade if im Boston. He got 3-4 seasons left of playing superstar quality basketball

....all that bick dick pressure off of Tatum.

 

[DJ]

Melton was a really good get though.

Forgot about him for a second.
