The 2023-2024 NBA Season

[fightinfunbags]

Most if not all those complementary pieces are gone next year in most cases

Depends on the deadline move they make.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Sure

I think they get at least two firsts or an equivalent from another team just for Murray

Ex: lakers


Russell (matching salary)
Christie
JHS (17th pick this year)
Only first they can trade

For

Murray

After what they gave up to get him?

Absolutely

 

[The Q]

After what they gave up to get him?

Absolutely

I am high man on Christie and low man on JHS so I’m curious what atl looks at a deal like that and does

 

[The Q]

Depends on the deadline move they make.

Guys like hunter or grant will do it to some extent

 

[tlance]

They also need to start calling these DHOs what they actually are, moving picks

You really want more whistles on petty stuff like that?

No thanks.

 

[The Q]

No thanks.

Yes

Especially when they’re blatant violations

This attitude is why dudes don’t have to dribble past half court and dunk

Shaq is old school and I loved watching him play. Stupid to not acknowledge the total scope of what Chet is doing though. The crazy thing about Shaq saying that is how much attention he got as a rookie just for being a physical freak.

It is not though.

It is a gray area.

The “screen” is basically being set by the player with the ball.

If he moves into the defender after the handoff!

Call it.

Otherwise no way.

@fightinfunbags ?

Get the College Gang back together?

Not now. At one time, I would have. He’s a bad contract right now with the way he’s playing.

@thunderc

Like I said, he is by no means a Allstar……YET

But, let’s not act like he’s a JAG.

Why does Shaq have to feel threatened every time another Dude gets a compliment?

I miss the old, fun, Shaq.

With hat being said, folks do have a tendency to overhype some of these new guys.

Chet is not one of them.

Here’s my theory on Wiggins…

He is expected to play like the 2nd or 3rd option on a contender and he crumbles under that pressure.

Couldn’t even be relied upon as a #2 on a dogshit Timberpups team.

But, when he came to the Dubs?

He was a 4th, if you count Poole, 5th option on offense.

He fucking flourished and played like the 2nd best player on a championship squad.

That’s what he would be for you.

But I get your point about the contract.

He would chew up a large portion of your open cap space.

I’d be more mad the soft league has dudes that look him playing center

Could you imagine him trying to guard Shaq?

He’d be the 4th option in Philly too.

Maybe 5th if they went and got hield as well.

Guy I’m looking for would have to threaten to be the 3rd offensive option.

Also, dude hasn’t been right since (pick one option)
- he got the bag
- he took that leave of absence
