The Official NBA Season Thread: USA Setting Up for a SFA

[JustBlaze.]

"All-Star potential" is nasty. Giddey is nice but come on, bruh.

 

[nick.]

Moving Coby White off the ball for why?

 

[ballinsam23]

They declined a top 10 pick but traded him for Giddey?

Hell of a come up for OKC

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Good move for OKC, still hope they make a bigger move to add a creator.

What kind of creator? Given how ball dominant Shai is? And JDub has the ball usually when he doesn’t.

 

[tay1]

Damn OKC is building a team that's gon be nice for a while. Hate that we let go of AC.

 

[MVP]

OKC need a sniper and a serviceable big body and I'll feel confident in them going to the finals next season.

 

[arstyle27]

Bulls gonna Bull. Suck for infinity.

 

[pmatic]

The Bulls couldn't even get a measly second rounder for Caruso??

The Thunder only have like 26493 draft picks at their disposal.

 

[ballinsam23]

Does this take OKC out of the iHart sweepstakes

 

[osh kosh bosh]

The perfect person would be Lauri Markkanen. A big who can shoot, and take and can score some in iso to take pressure off of Shai without being ball dominant.

but Im guessing he's not available.

 

[elpablo21]

OKC got better

 

[MVP]

Well at least we're not the Bulls

 

[JMB10215]

Only player to make All NBA (2nd team) and All NBA Defense (1st team).

He had a monster year.

That’s a good argument. I’m not hating on it, I’m just not seeing the impact during the regular season to justify him being that high. But the facts are the facts. 1st on both is impressive

 

[JMB10215]

Idk what the hell the Bulls are doing, and I don’t think they do either

 

[tay1]

Well at least we're not the Bulls

Bulls gotta be top 3 on the incompetent organization list at this point

I think there’s more meat on the bone (pun intended) with Chet than how he’s currently used.

 

[moe200069]

kiddey NEVER beating those allegations

 

[elpablo21]

DDR and Lavine better be gone too.

I hate these half *** steppin franchises

 

[antidope]

I'm sorry there were no picks involved? Josh Giddey for a player that every team would want? The Chicago Bulls man..... 6 fluky championships and ineptitude every time period outside of that

 

[nick.]

Does this take OKC out of the iHart sweepstakes

Are we sure they're even in?

They may want an inside big to give a different look, especially in the playoffs, but to spend $20M+/year on one? I can't see it.

They gotta blow it up I’ve been saying it for a couple years

 

[B Sox]

They’re definitely the ones going for OG if this is true. Or a grandfather offer for Bridges.

 

[OrangeBlueGarden]

He should be. But he isn’t. Can’t stay healthy. Can’t get to the conference finals. Comes up small when you need him. Same thing every year.

You’re right but let’s say Embiid can stay healthy a little longer and 76ers add another player make a big 3 in Philly I would want to see him in the conference finals .. anything can happen they could blow this open (pause) just by drafting someone
