    Which is a better team in 2 years time?

    Keyonte would need to become 80% as good as SGA and the refs would need to stop falling for it every time SGA flops. I could see Ace becoming good enough to counter Jalen Williams. OKC might start Jared McCain over Lu Dort. Jazz need one more guy from this draft plus another couple moves to...

    Grade the Jazz’s Trade Deadline

    They made an opportunistic trade to get a significant two-way player who fits with Walker and Lauri, and they didn't give up too much. The Lakers '27 pick is probably going to end up around 20. The Jazz's '27 pick will end up late teens or later (e.g., Jazz win ~45 games). The Suns pick in '31...

    Following Potential 2026 Draftees

    Teams with small lead initiators and small #1 options don't win championships. There are too many examples. The problem is that they can be slowed down by bigger, more athletic defenders. The one exception is Steph Curry, but look at all the running and shenanigans he goes through to get...

    Aside from Cody having 3 blocks and a steal, he also drew at least 2 offensive fouls on the Hawks in that half. That's 6 forced turnovers.
