The 2023-2024 NBA Season

he's trying!

I'd almost argue the Pistons would have a decent reason to fire him and then sue him for violation of his contract. I don't know of any precedent though.

Cade Cunningham back tonight

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Can they trade him for Ham?

I'd take that trade

because they can just fire Ham and not owe him 65 million dollars

I'm surprised that Monty has been so bad, I had a pretty good opinion of him prior.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Can they trade him for Ham?

Yes please!!!!

And we will throw in a 2nd rounder!!!!

Clearly I am kidding.

I still have a very high opinion of him as a person, no idea what’s going on at the moment.

D Lo was definitely getting cooked against Denver.

No arguments from me there.

Sizzling like a thick cut piece of bacon

his lineups are intentionally bad and for a guy who came in talking about defense they've been horrendous.

Now a lot of the latter is on the players.

The only tradeable picks they have is 2 seconds one in 2024 and one in 2027. The Raptors take on two years of salary. Maybe Portis fits them as a back up big? Connaughton doesn’t. I think Toronto can do better than Portis and 2 seconds for Brown who likely goes for a first and a useable player. Additionally, Bucks create a hole in their front court depth with no Portis.

Portis would be a big loss. Locker room guy and a big part of that team. Middleton has to be the guy to go but who wants that salary. Not giving him up for Brown. That is definitely interesting. Maybe they need a guard more than a big?...

Lot to like.

The guy lost his wife in 2016 and there were several stories that made him look really good.

He was here in OKC when all that happened, he will always be highly thought of here.

 

[The Q]

It’s really been much more of a “everybody shares the ball” kind of scheme. Especially lately the Sixers have played Maxey more off ball. The recent change over the last two weeks tells me that if the Sixers make a deal it would be to add a starting level combo guard so that player and Maxey can share duties and swap on ball/off ball.

This is why I really liked Dejounte being the add to the Sixers.

I’m hoping nobody else is willing to give ATL two firsts except the Sixers and the choice in front of the Hawks is 1 first and a starter vs 2 firsts and an expiring contract. I think the Hawks would lean toward the two firsts.

Brown or Trent out of Toronto would also work for Philly Imo in different ways

They have the expirings to offer, but not the 1st?

Philly has like 3....or 4 I think.

Philly has 3. A 2026, a 2028 unprotected from the Clippers and their own 2030 first.

Thought so.

Wish they could have waited to change the coach until after we played them back to back. Don't think Doc is a good coach but could see them doing well with the change at first.

Oh well.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Ira Winderman thinks the Heat may deal Martin with the emergence of Highsmith saying he is going to be more cost efficient in FA. And they could add 2 guys in buyout market.

So is it just Giannis' show now? Is he the new King Lebron?
