The Official Off-Season NBA Thread

[Mark Antony]

Wait a minute didn't know this was a known thing till now. Was watching this Malcolm Gladwell talk where he mentioned his Indian friend who coached his girls basketball team despite no knowledge and decided the way Americans did it was stupid (sorry no timestamp).



Ya'll bringing this up made me realize it's Vivek and he totally thinks he can do this with the Kings.

How David Beats Goliath

When underdogs choose not to play by the rules, they can win, even when everything we think we know about power says they shouldn’t.

I'm out the loop but **** I don't watch the Kings.

 

[CJMcfly26]

Portland going after Jeremy Grant. So leave Detroit to put yourself in a worst situation. Yeah makes sense. I’d tell the blazers go to hell.

 

[rolaholic]

Beal really packing it up to be a family man

 

[Mark Antony]

Hope he does his research before letting those quacks touch him.

[T0INE]

The WNBA disrespect.

They have had some of the most highly sports entertaining Finals in recent years.

 

[iheartboost]

More old geezers for the retirement arena.

 

[abubakr shaheed]

gaaat damn the kings man..i have no ties to sacramento other than i loved white chocolate and bobby jackson growing up... this trade hurts

 

[Coupé It]

Hope he does his research before letting those quacks touch him.

Who's been more beloved by Wiz fans, Wall or Beal?

 

[had pants]

 

[pmatic]

Wizards, woof.

Either have him walk or hand him $200M. They should've traded him three years ago.

 

[pmatic]

Who's been more beloved by Wiz fans, Wall or Beal?

Wall, and by a pretty decent margin.

 

[Moheezy]

Another player past his prime. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over again expecting different results. This is year three of their GM doing this.

 

[coldcity]

Portland & the wiz should’ve traded their respective stars at least 3 years ago.

 

[Mister Meaner]

step 1: both 3rd options need new homes & Grant’s defense is all 👁 want really

 

[coldcity]

Jesus losing quigley & Julius gets you 3 more losses

 

[storm2006]

Morey must be stopped

Morey

Why the hell are the 76ers so confident in this happening

Is Morey meeting Lil Baby for chardonnay and charcuterie to get inside info?

Because Tad Brown who is the CEO of the Sixers is closer to Harden than Morey is

I know Rusty was semi-joking but, in all seriousness, we also can't forget that Michael Rubin (CEO of Fanatics, 76ers part-owner and Hank Scorpio client) is tight with Lil Baby so that could also be a legitimate pathway for Harden intel from Lil Baby to Morey

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Is sabonis that bad?

 

[iheartboost]

Who's been more beloved by Wiz fans, Wall or Beal?

Nick Young.

 

[CJMcfly26]

I know Marvin Bagley pissed. Definitely not getting minutes now with Sabonis. Kings really the worst management in Sports bruh.

 

[T0INE]

Is sabonis that bad?

Yeah, EYE get the uproar about trading a young promising player like Haliburton but Sabonis is a GOODT! player as well.

 

[pmatic]

Is sabonis that bad?

It's not that, as much as he's flawed defensively, needs to have ball on offense and will be a free agency in two years. And the Kings now only have one shooter around Sabonis (Barnes).

 

[tomdiginson]

Whoa.

Didn't see this one happening at all. Bradley Beal They should have traded him at the latest last year.

 

[tay1]

4 games in 5 days and off of playing yesterday, I expect the Suns to lose to the 76ers tonight
