Look at Russ up there with some other superstars.

THEY are trying to run the hometown kid out of town; saying he's washed or what not. Westbrook Revenge Tour 2K23.

Garland the 2nd best PG in the East

Garland the 2nd best PG in the East

Must be 2 East because he isn’t better than Trae, harden, or LaMelo. Haliburton might be better as well.

Trae
Garland

Everyone else. 1000% better than lamelo and Haliburton

Legit nothing he does on the floor better than LaMelo, he just plays more minutes. Harden had the worst year of his career and still was clearly better than garland. There’s also nothing he’s doing better than healthy jimbo.

Haliburton I reached a little but if he replicates his ending to the season after he was traded to Indiana he also clears garland.

More efficient than lamelo. Better in pick and roll. Don’t mention minutes when the hornets placed at a top 5 pace and the Cavs played at a bottom 5 pace. More minutes also because lamelo was getting benched at times (not saying it’s right but it happened.) we saw lamelo do what in the play in game?

Can’t take Haliburton’s production 100% serious, they were on the April stimulus package plan. He’s legit good. Not taking him over garland though

The Cavs had HC much of the year until their front court fell apart.

im buying all haliburton stock this season
word to george dubya

No lamelo hate from me- after all he’s 2 years younger than garland

But

As of now it seems like garland is better attacking defenses off the dribble. Better shot off the bounce. Are there stats in iso that can be posted to deny or confirm

Garland is definitely more efficient so idk how anyone can say garland does nothing better

Idk I feel like garland was clearly the better player than lamelo last season. Lamelo was getting benched at the end of close games

Maybe I’m tripping but who first?


Oh ok I see trae


Yea melo def ain’t with Garland yet.

And with these bozos hiring Clifford back and miles nowhere to be see. It’s gonna be a tricky year for Melo.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Sounds about right

Lamelo said he wanted the trae young heliocentric role but idk if he’s ready for that yet

He better find that foul line if he wants that

 

[toneboi76]

This page is pretty dope. Some of my favorite pg’s. S/O Mark Jackson tho I didn’t know he was getting busy like that

 

[DLF]

Kind of sickening to see how the latest KD news has been handled by media.

ESPN, which is mostly CAA clients (like Sean Marks) either ignore it or keep saying nothing has changed.

FS1 and independent podcasters say “well…no way you can bring KD back now given that the entire team knows he hates coach and GM and that’s untenable for all parties”

Media is trash.


Obviously the news changes everything. Even if KD comes to camp, the awkwardness/toxicity levels will be astronomical

I still rather have Melo but I’ll give you that.

Garland not leap frogging Harden based off what you’ve presented for him though.
