Here is how we can start the NBA season now...

Math on tHoop is a bannable offense. Just sayin'.

Do not worry about that - I haven't seen anyone on Thoop using any logic or common sense combined with math any way

Probably because logic and common sense are also bannable offenses.

Well that would explain why so many of them in here a married

not 3 in a row. 3 of 4. Still odds of that wasn't great....especially since, I believe, we had 8th best chance with the pick that got Kyrie and Wiggins.

and one of those was Anthony Bennett in a top 5 that was awful, and the one they missed was Anthony Davis (with Beal going very high too). ugh

 

[WiggyRuss]

this years draft is looking weak too.

I would take Anthony Edwards #1.

Wiseman and Ball both carry huge risks if you ask me. Both have upside but both have huge risks.

if the Cavs do not get #1, theni dont really think it matters much in this draft from 2-6

What do you think of that kid from Dayton, Obi something?

i like his attitude and work ethic and athleticism but i think he is more of a 4 than a 3 and thats a little bit of a problem for him. If he can stay at the 3 and guard 3's that helps his value a lot- but i dont know if he can. he is a swiss-army knife--- i can see him being a very good player, but i dont think he is an ideal top 5 pick i nmost drafts but he very well might be one in this draft.

It's going to be very interesting with Ball, imo. Could see him going real early and could see him fall in the draft.

From everything that's been said, the kid can flat out shoot and folks have said he might he the best overall player of the 3.

But Lonzo got off to a slow start and there's always the loose cannon that is Lavar. Gotta wonder if those will be held against him?

He's also skinny as a rail. Kid is listed at 6'8 181. Skinny ass Brandon Ingram has about 10 pounds on him. lol

LeBron liked and went back - and things can change. They could get lucky like the Warriors did who got Curry and Thompson

Probably gonna take some serious lottery luck but you are right...could get lucky with a later pick.

I would like to say that during the pandemic I'm not as willing to take a ban for the team.

agree, though I would say maybe for a team like GS who has Klay and Curry coming back he might not be a bad pick (though I'm sure not their first choice).

Its the only way it happens though, I already know that. What I am projecting into the future is when the current owner dies and is replaced. They might get an owner with a brain and gives a damn

If you are describing Gilbert hard to take you seriously.

No, but he wont live forever and will die sooner or later. New ownership changed The Warriors

He'll die? Yeah in like 40 years

 

[dtgold88]

but you seemed to imply they might win another title if new owner is smart and gives a damn. Does that mean Gilbert is dumb and doesn't care?
