2023 offseason thread

Thank god. I hate greeny

I bet they put Perk in to replace Jalen Rose. So whatever gain we get going from Greeny to Malika, we still end up with a net negative

Confirms what i knew already. Tyler is better than Simons

Today?

For sure.

But if you had Simons and weren’t going to be very good…

Would you want Herro?

Probably not.

Easy...JJJ

Only 2 have won defensive player of the year, I have to throw out one that hasn’t. It’s AD for me if we are just talking defense.

Eh…

That doesn’t always tell the whole story.

AD might be the best defender in that group when he is fully engaged.

Just doesn’t always happen.

definitely factored into my decision. Actually if we are talking current abilities only I’m throwing out Draymond and it’s not close.

It's Dray. He still good (o longer elite) but not better than any of the other 3.

He's overrated as a defender imo Yeah he's good at shot blocking but what else? I think the other 3 are actually good at on the ball defense and AD isn't bad at blocking either

That is my take also.

Just saw a local report on how Presti is likely nervous at the moment. It hadn’t dawned on me that all 5 Thunder starters are tied up with FIBA. SGA and Dort start for Canada, Giddey for Australia and Holmgren and Jdub are on the U.S.A. Select team. Be glad when it’s over.

Just doesn’t always happen.

...and he's often on an island without much help from his teammates

And Maxey is the better former Kentucky guard.

 

[DJ Fieri]

LOL at AD is overrated as a defender.

Stupidest post in a while on here and that is saying something.

@thunderc literally never said this. You need to stop lying on posters. It is ridiculous

 

[fightinfunbags]

Booker

I said better not best. A whole bunch of guys on Heat Twitter have been talking that nonsense that Herro is better.

Surely he wasn’t talking about me. That would be, well stupid.

 

[bksballer89]

So pay him the bag

 

[fightinfunbags]

So pay him the bag

If I had that power, I’d probably find a way to pay myself first. His deal is coming next summer.
