My heart is still cheering for Minny.

You have a kind soul..

Welp, now that rooting against the Wolves pick is over.. it should be fun rooting for Gobert against Jokic.

I think they’re a good matchup against Denver.

I'd love Demar on Utah

Me too

NAW has played well in both play-in games.

Oddly enough, he was the one in the trade that I wanted to keep most. Which is weird considering Beasley, conley, and vando were all starter'ish and NAW was mostly riding pine. He looked so so good for a few short stretches though. And it was kind of entertaining to watch him shoot the highest arching shot that the nba has ever seen

His defensive hands are pretty elite. He’s just a really good defender. But man is his shot high arching. Lol. More than even Boozer’s.

Man this singer at Nets vs Sixers game is amazing.

Lordy Bridges is a player! Man… maybe the suns should’ve kept him instead of selling the farm for an old and injury prone Douche?

It's the same situation as Markkanen. Since he's been in the role of 1st option he's flourished.

Hunter might be the most fraudulent defender in the league.

I still have no idea why Quin took the Hawks job, feels like this team is headed toward a blow up and a rebuild in a year or two.

Well he’s experienced with that.

It's a grift. He knows at worst he gets fired years in advance of his contract expiring, so he'll just be stacking cash even higher in those situations.

This is what 5-out is supposed to look like. Just look at the acres of space. There's no hope to contain an athletic wing with a good first step.

It's a great job and he has full control

 

[MT Steve]

My first impression of this game is thank god we didn't trade for Barrett.

 

[Jingled]

I disagree that it's a great job, but I'm sure having so much control over personnel moves was very appealing to him.

They got a nice amount of assets, good players, good city to attract talent, and a very good star

Mitchell is such an entertaining player. Not having more playoff success while he was here is such a bummer.

Who’s the star?

Trae Young
