Oh man the poor Trailblazers had to play at Minny tonight.

Hawks just need to blow it up

They’ll move some pieces to get below the tax line for next year

You old guys also have trouble sleeping? Last few months been waking up earlier and earlier.

I'm not really a good one to ask. I haven't slept past 6am since February 14, 1991. That's because that evening was when my wife told me she was pregnant with our 1st kid. I guess something in me knew that my days of sleeping in were going to be over.

Unfortunately, it never adjusted back. lol

Hard fought win for Miami vs Orlando without Herro or Butler

Really bush league that fans booed Jerry Krause's name tonight. The guy won 6 titles. Booing his widow is just classless by the fans.

You guys will make a deal.

Memphis might decide to have a fire sale

Not for Ja , JJJ, Bane…

But a guy like Luke Kennard?

Get Him and Olynyk.

Or Olynyk and Brogdon…

Lakers would be in decent shape.

Buddy still out there too.

Eric Pincus had a deal the other day that I liked but obviously you can scrap it now that Smart is hurt for 6 weeks

Grizzlies get: Rui Hachimura, Gabe Vincent, Jaxson Hayes, Harry Giles III, Top-10 protected 2029 first-rounder (via LAL), Trade exceptions ($8.3 million, $2.4 million and $1.9 million)


Lakers get: Marcus Smart, Luke Kennard, John Konchar, Xavier Tillman Sr., Dorian Finney-Smith, Trade exception ($10.5 million)


Nets get: D'Angelo Russell, Jalen Hood-Schifino, Trade exceptions ($14 million, $2 million)

I don't see why the Nets would do it though. Trade exception is nice but you'd think they'd want some picks (either a 1st round swap or some 2nds) because DFS should fetch than something (though JHS could be a nice piece if he pans out). Only issue for the Lakers is it basically leaves them with zero front court scoring other than AD, but they'd greatly increase their defense with Smart and DFS while also getting some shooting.

Those were some trash ass people. Yeah, Krause kinda sucked. But he still put together a dynasty that won 6 rings and its his fucking widow right there. I could maybe, maaaaybe see them booing if it was just a title card on the big screen with no family there, but this was just straight up garbage behavior. That franchise deserves a curse.

Chicago teams and their curses...took 71 years for the Cubs to break the Billy Goat Curse

Now the Bulls are at 36 years and counting of their Krause Curse

This is a perfect example where MJ displays his not such a good person nature

I fully expect ups and downs, but I’m not listening to bs from jealous Laker fans that know nothing about statistics.

Jealous?

Remind me who won the Lakers vs Thunder game again?

LOL.

76ers, Pacers the prime teams to look out for in Pascal Siakam trade

Dave Early: “The people I’ve spoken to, rival executives, all of the above, they believe that they, Pascal Siakam and the #Raptors are on the verge of parting ways….Philly, Indian…

If this happens the Sixers are sacrificing fit for a name.

We did win Dec 23. The last time we played the Thunder.

I guess you don’t mean the first time they played this year when the Thunder won by 23.

Wife's daughter brought over some moonshine when she picked up little Demetrius last night....
