The thing with Rudy is you don't trade someone with such high value for Doncic unless you're going to tear the whole thing down, if it's only Rudy to be traded, Rudy's more valuable for a contending/pretending team. If you trade Rudy it's gonna be really hard to add more rotation players since...

A lot can surpass him, season is young, let's see how Doncic looks in May/June when GMs have to make decisions. I was rather thinking about the potential of the bigs. As a big if you dominate 2 facets of the game you're nearly always outperforming a max salary. If you're awesome in 3 or 4 ways...

The thing is if he keeps trashing EuroLeague competition even to a lesser degree, no NCAA player can compete with that unless you see some surprising developments and gamble on those traits being more useful 5 years down the road. If he hits a slump and regresses the other players will enter the...

I think his 3 point shot is so good that he'll be efficient no matter what and he'll make everyone better because he's a primary ball handler who's a dead-eye shooter(ok, i'm exaggerating)

His Euro League play will obvi go down(He's PER 39.2 right now), but after the first good game the opponent's coach MUST try to find defensive assignments that work especially against Doncic and apparently they couldn't. His Domestic league performance is still really good. He's more of a...

I guess everyone has seen the unprecedented damage that Doncic deals in Europe at his age. I doubt Dirk could've done anything close to that...His draft status will be so interesting when you consider how rare it is for Euros to be drafted #1 - but his performance and production are something else!

Bonga is getting playing time, early in the season his production looks like he's improving in the areas where he's perceived to be weak at and I doubt he'll declare for the '18 draft.

Over the course of the season he should find time, especially because the spacing at times is really clunky right now. As soon as Rubio gives the ball away, the lanes are super crowded, sometimes even before that. Jerebko could help in this regard. Most likely scenario IMO is that over the...

Embiid's humour is made to mess with the twitter victims

In Germany general usage of mobile phones while driving is forbidden. It's probably not enforced all that much, but in theory it's not allowed.

For me the big difference in those scenarios are two sided: While a typical alcoholic usually kills himself by drinking, a gun can be directed at others. I do not know how many of those listed in your quote are intended suicides, but it's a big deal for me. Liberty means you have the right to...

I think most of Dante's minutes will go to Burks

The main question that will remain unanswered is: How many politicians did you have to pay off directly or indirectly to earn their trust...

A rule that isn't enforced is in my opinion no rule. What you describe are societal ripple effects in my opinion. If certain benchmarks were more tolerant, a wider spectrum, ppl wouldn't feel forced to prove themselves to others, but could rather explore what they'd do so they like themselves...

Usually those parties that were involved in the Kuzma draft discussion are really quick to point out that they're right and be petty about it.

This is something that I see a lot when talking to Americans or reading content. Exaggeration, polarizing statements and "either you're with me or against me" are positions that come up a lot. In your last response you moan about a narrow spectrum of responses, but yet you condemn OP for...

Surprised to not see any Kuzma hype here yet, as far as I remember he was heavily debated in the draft thread.

Because the world is not black + white. Statistically speaking though if working doesn't give ppl what they want from work, or they can't find work in the first place then they're more likely to explore other avenues to make a living. It's not the same for everyone obviously, there are even...

Those racial discussions are not exclusive to America. In Germany it's similar mainly with Turks and Germans of Turkish descent. In France you'll find conversations regarding ppl originally from Marocco, Algeria and Tunesia. In Germany though researches have shown that if you analyze wealth...

I think the depth and lack of predetermined rotation mean two things: 1) Whoever is playing with less than 100% intensity could be sent to the bench within a blink 2) If you're playing within the system and make sound decisions in plays is going to get more opportunities to flow into a groove...
