Official 2018 NBA Preseason Thread - Jimmy Butler Does Things

The Bottom of the East may be more trash than ever so the Sixers ain't going out first round, They face either Boston or Toronto in the second tho, & it's goodnight for them.

no tellin' who will be the bottom of the East or where Sixers should be seeded, 4/5 match-up for them could be competitive

If Mil, Indy and Heat with possibly a healthier Whiteside and Waiters, is the bottom of the East than it isn't so bad

I like the trade for both teams.

For Houston, they get off Anderson's contract, and they get a legitimate backup guard which will be good for lessening CP3's minutes. Chriss is a moron, but he's a freak athlete, and has landed in the best situation possible for him, playing with 2 of the league's best passers. All he has to do is rim run and attempt to play defense. While he isn't necessarily good at it, he CAN shoot 3s too. They also get to save some lux tax money by the move.

For Phoenix, they basically turn Brandon Knight's contract that expires in 2 years into a bigger contract that expires in 2 years, and they get a talented guard prospect in return. They still need to find a PG somewhere.

I really like the trade for Houston. PHX didn't really benefit much. It's more status quo for them unless they are looking for added veteran presence. Their PG situation will be aweful

So PHX is going to start Booker/Jackson/Ariza/Anderson/Ayton?

Okobe
Book
Ariza
Anderson
Ayton

They’ll probably deal Warren for a PG

I think Okobo is going to be good. Probably not ready to start yet though.

Trade Josh Jackson for Scary Terry.

Thoughts on Jj getting benched in his 2nd year? I seem to remember you having strong feelings about Zo possibly being benched for rondo

JJ and Zo could both end up being benched. I don’t agree with either decision of bringing in Ariza or Rondo.
