I think it’s pretty obvious he is on that path. Don’t know why this bothers you, he’s as good of a dude as there is out there.

We know you think this, we know lol. It's not him, is the constant fellation. The fanboy worship could be contained on say, a team page?

Hey dickhead, I’ll say what I want. You do the same. Deal? Man if the Lakers had anything close to what the Thunder do can you imagine what it would be like around here?

Don't get your panties in a twist, lol. You dish it out but can't take it. You know its all shit-talking here, right? Check the emotions at the door lol.

The Lakers have had that frequently in the past. Maybe with some familiarity to winning you'll calm down a bit. It's like watching this year's world series, with Raptors fans losing their shit over every mundane detail. Teams used to winning typically have more relaxed fans, a been there - done that situation. Of course, there are always the overzealous super fans, but they usually fade away when the team takes a down turn.

Just saying in this instance the only reason Jdub came up was someone else. I’m not apologizing, I’ll stand behind anything I say and besides, this is my time damnit!!!

I think it's time to drop the Kawhi comparisons for the sake of Jdub. Don't jinx him like that.

Don't worry, Excremento will trade for Morant soon enough and screw up the roster even more.

They actually need a pg

The question is what would Memphis want

I’m not really sure what Memphis needs tbh

If they trade morant tbey also need to trade JJ so I guess it’s just filler

But kings don’t have many expiring deals so it’s tough and probably need a third team

It’s already way out there and I didn’t start it, though I do think I pointed it out before I started seeing it nationally.

Who said Kawhi is his floor besides you?
I’ll own that. Like I have said once he is the same or better 2 way player that one can be checked off. Thats how it was meant.

I have to question how valuable a 6'2" guy that can't create in the half court is in the modern NBA, especially if he can't defend.
I did not say he couldn't, I said he is not Mike Conley at 18. He needs to grow into yhat player, you do that by putting him on the court to learn. Maximize his skills while he learns the rest.

On a young team that is trying to grow, sure that is the route you take. Minnesota has WCF or Championship aspirations in a competitive West.
He’s 6’2”, already small for a modern PG and tiny for a SG. If he’s not adept at running the half court offense it is going to be hard to find minutes outside of junk time in Minnesota.

The Sixers with 3 road games in 4 days seems a little ridiculous.
It’s why they want their own arena. The Sixers aren’t even the 2nd priority in their arena. The Flyers first and then concerts and events take precedence over the Sixers.

Fun story about Kobe promising Trevor Ariza that he'd make sure the Rockets got to the playoffs by beating the Jazz...

"I'm going to take care of that for y'all" - Ariza reveals Kobe vowed to beat Jazz in his last game to help Rockets get in the playoffs​
