That's all on the Hawks lol. They could've and should've had him.

I suspect in a few years everyone will he saying Phoenix (and Sacto) could have and should have had him.

No doubt Ayton will be good. I have to echo @Mecca.

But Luka?

Yes well done. Your team who had minimal changes from last year played a solid game against a team who are just getting to know each other and featured a second half of G League players.

Have you written a blog about it yet?

Well you could always look for yourself...You know where to find me on the web/

He looked good I expect him to have a great year.

But, Luka....
I said all along I thought Luka was the best player in the draft. Hes unreal.

The Hawks had him fall in their lap and traded down. So dumb.

Cedi is gonna have a good year for the Cavs- maybe not right away since they have too many guys that deserve minutes on that team and need to clear out some of the rabble, but i think its clear he will be a legit NBA player.

I'm so glad I have a team to root for whom the sky is the limit so that I don't have to actively root against other teams like some schmucks here (Celtics are the exception, but that's a deep rivalry-based hate).

Yep.

You have been on the Luka train much longer than I.

But, I'm a believer.

I should get a pass too.

I have suffered greatly at the hands of the Lakers.

So, fuck y'all!!!

it will be fun to watch the Nuggets be better than the Lakers this year that is for sure.
They could be better.

The Nugz look to have the better offense between the two.

But, can they stop anyone?

It's your own fault. Get your own arena, lol. Should've stayed in San Diego.

The only thing that San Diego has been able to hold on to is the Padres and that is because no one would want them.
Move to Vegas, baby!

'Nobody really offered' Looney a contract in free agency


You guys can keep complaining about the Warriors taking guys, but it's crazy to me that none of your GM's offered Looney a deal. I mean he couldn't accept more than a 2.2M deal with the Warriors. If any team just gave him 3M, they would have easily gotten him. Not saying Looney is a star or anything like that, but he's most certainly a quality 8th man off any teams bench as a defensive big.

In fairness, it was against the Beijeng Ducks...lol


Doncic, the No. 3 pick in the draft, scored 16 points on 5-of-7 shooting in 30 minutes during a 116-63 victory Saturday night over the Beijing Ducks.


The 6-foot-7 Doncic made a few dazzling plays off the dribble, something the Mavs are expecting on a consistent basis as he serves as one of their primary ball handlers despite playing mainly power forward

Can you guys sign J Crossover and just be done with this Pat Mccaw clusterfuck?

I mean, who's minutes does he believe he deserves to take?

Another dumb as kid listening to his dumb ass dad.
