    I agree with most of what you said except for the fact that the excitement about Key being irrational. He gets way more stick than carrot around these parts. He is of the age where we should still get excited about "flashes" of potential. Most NBA players dont really put it together in less...

    Lmao. This made me laugh hard... twice. First I laughed at it being a great meme. Second time I laughed when I checked the stats and found out it was true.

    If they feel someone may catch them then I'm sure they can play the contusion game as well. Im pretty sure we have less leeway there.

    Wizards are -12.4 in point differential IN THE EAST. Turn half of our "nice competitive losses" into blowouts and thats who they are. They are so bad the league should force them to replace the W in theur name with L. Lizards.

    Is Isiah Collier finally our new Stockton?

    Quite frankly I like the idea that in 2027 we are able to field a lineup of: Jokic Dirk Jalen Williams Devin Booker Black John Stockton And then we have JJJ, Kessler, Cooper Flagg and AJ Dybantsa coming off the bench.

    Is Isiah Collier finally our new Stockton?

    Also Keyonte is Devin Booker, TH is JJJ and Cody is his brother. Who is Brice though?

    Kyle Filipowski's Road to Being a 7' Playmaker

    It will be interesting to see how Flip develops. Great start to his career to find out that his offensive abilities seem to translate pretty well. Definitely has the tools to become a very good offensive player, but defense is the main questionmark. Can he bulk up to offer some resistance to...

    Following Potential 2025 Draftees

    I'm only wondering if he has turned more clickbaity. Everyone in that industry is measured by reads and likes and it must annoy many of the legit analysts when guys like Draymond and Perkins beat them on those metrics with their absolutely trash takes.

    Following Potential 2025 Draftees

    John Hollinger wrote a piece for Athletic few days ago where he said Flagg is undeniable #1 and #2 is a debate between Harper and VJ. Its also obvious he isnt that high on Bailey and indicated that GMs have to squint hard and project to justify him at #4. Is Hollinger cooked? Is he more of a...

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    And why on earth would you endorse such mental imagery?

    If not Flagg or Harper…

    Yeah BI is probably a bad comp from my side as what Ive seen from Ace in his bad moments is that he looks more lost than unserious. So it may be more of a BBIQ question.

    If not Flagg or Harper…

    Thats perfectly fair, but we cant know whether MPJ ever had more than "role player" in him even if he landed elsewhere.

    Does anyone have (or know where to find) on/off or lineup stats for the Rutgers guys?

    If not Flagg or Harper…

    I'm leaning more towards Edgecombe right now. Consistently high motor and wants to play the right way. If we get Ace I wont complain at all but I also cant really see the "best player in a championship contender" in him like so many others do. Brandon Ingram and MPJ were both highly rated...

    2024-2025 Tank Race

    I think the quality of the draft class = stakes. Some people only focus on the #1 pick in which case its just about amassing as manny lotto balls as possible to hopefully swing for that guy. I dont think any FO in the league thinks about it like that. Thats just fans getting hyped about "a...

    Walker Kessler Hype & Appreciation Thread

    Kudos to @Megadoo1 for keeping this thread alive with these posts, but shame on us others for not helping him out much. Walker has definitely leveled up this season. We have seen him be more physical and actually dunk the ball instead of finessing every rim finish, and he has also improved his...

    Man did JC have a rough game. His shots didnt really even have a chance to go in and some of them were the type of shots he is pretty automatic with. He didnt seem to regonize half the times they doubled him and ended up throwing prayer passes or just straight up turning it over. Dude has had...

    This has been the case in the previous clashes between those two guys, but it seems the tables may have turned. Speaks volumes on Walkers development that he actually looked like the bully this time around. He was dominating Sabonis all game and it also showed up on box score: Walker 25 points...

    My idea on how to fix lottery/tanking

    Generational talents dont come in bunches. We saw that Wemby didnt cause any outrageous tanking around the league despite being probably the most hyped and followed prospect ever. The choice in those very few years such a guy is even available would be 12.5% chance at that guy at the cost of...
