What does that have to do with defense?

Bojan is a very nice add. Burks too but both are awful defensively. I think it works for them bc they have some solid defenders, Thibs will find a way to work them into effective lineups
Yep. OG, Hart, Donte are all plus defenders. Thibs is great at coaching defense. Even guys like Burks and Bogs can play team defense in the right scheme.


They’ll run into a problem with the Celtics though. Celtics will be able to isolate those guys and pick on them. Not many other teams in the East can do that to them though.

Bulls have been super quiet. The calm before the storm or are they really not going to do anything?

Think we still have a Killian trade in us and then we are done.

Yeah this is the trade of the day so far. Knicks got much better. Now factor in the OG trade and I don’t think any team has gotten better since the start of the season to the extent that the Knicks have.

Yep.

Gonna be very dangerous in the playoffs. Rose has done a really good job there.

Yeah it feels like the Knicks made out like bandits here. Depending upon what other people do, I think I’m gonna be putting the Knicks 2nd to the Celtics in my East power rankings.

Weaver held his cards on Bojan too long. Once it was clear the team sucked they should have dealt him.

Regardless they added a guy who has an actual chance to be in the rotation next year and well beyond.

The EC is clearly wide open with the Embiid injury and the Bucks not working out like planned.

Boston vs NY could easily be the ECF.

Surprised we could not sucker the Pistons into a deal.

so we are at

Cade
Ivey
Simone
Stew
Duren

Grimes
Galo
Ausar
Muscala
Brown
Shake
Sasser

as the likely active roster

Wiseman banished to suckville. Killian traded. Harris released. House done. Flynn done. Fournier done. Ryan A as depth.

I feel like I'm forgetting someone.

Going to come down to matchups. Still a long season but if the Cavs can hold down the 2 seed. Hoping Knicks get a 4 or 5. At this point, I will take my chance with MIL rather than NY but a lot of shit can happen till the end. Embiid returns and Philly will be a tough out for anyone. Then you have fucking Miami if they get a 6 or 7 they are dangerous. The East is up for grabs. Only sure thing is Boston with the 1 seed and HC throughout the east playoffs

Sixers could still do this and be out of the luxury tax level

You don't think Gallinari gets bought out?
