    The Jazz ought to trade for Zion Williamson

    Again, his contract is not guaranteed. Not this year, not any years left on it.

    The Jazz ought to trade for Zion Williamson

    This is like asking me to do three long jumps and then saying the very last one is the best predictor of what my 4th one will look like. My whole idea of trading for Zion is predicated on us being able to restore him to his best. His best was 3.5 years ago and not a year ago. It's all...

    The Jazz ought to trade for Zion Williamson

    He was 11th in the league in BPM in 2021, before the wheels fell off the whole thing. Seeing as none of his injuries have been career-jeopardizing, I would take that season as the benchmark for how good he could be if things work out, rather than the last one.

    The Jazz ought to trade for Zion Williamson

    Everything coming out of NOLA suggests that Zion doesn't wanna be there and the team don't want him anymore. He seems unlikely to be on the Pelicans come February, and almost certainly won't be there come October. The Jazz FO should make every effort to grab him from the Pelicans. This may be...

    What's messed up is that while the NBA now has rules about having to let a jump shooter land, those rules don't seem to apply to guys at the rim. I know the Dunn video is old, but Steph isn't even contesting. He just runs under the hoop after the dunk so there is no place for Dunn to come...

    There were guys on our team tonight I didn't know, let alone the Nets. When Harkless came in, I thought it was Mo.

    After watching a game of this caliber, I can not in good conscience search for quotes

    This was basically a G-League showcase game.

    Man, Cody's just clueless on offense.

    According to basketball-ref, he's 8% on shots from beyond half way line for his career. He's also a significantly worse career 3P shooter than Bryon Russell. Then again, not the first scrub to light us up, either.

    Mind you, who'd have expected our generation's Sam Bowie to actually hit that? Dude has more luck than brains, talent, and looks combined.

    Kessler's girlfriend is the new Miss America

    Imagine the pressure, though. I'm already worried I'm not good enough for my wife.

    My TV Really Did Break!

    It feels like every entertainment delivery system is antiquated. The whole industry wishes it was 1995. From sports, to music, to movies, you name it. It's 2024 and labels still can't figure out a better way to deliver music to you than....radio. It's just called Spotify now. Artists are...

    Sorry, there are basically zero quotes from the Brooklyn Nets’ forums

    I mean, if someone's doing this kind of a thing on another's team forum, they probably wouldn't have a lot of quotes after beating us this season, either.

    As so often happens in life, people advocating for something aren't really interested in its consequences. The few people posting in this thread do not appear to be those who shrieked and clamored for a tank.

    This version of Ben Simmons and the corpse of Zion Williamson should be on our opening day roster next year.

    Should the NBA abolish the 3 point line?

    And yes. Hard yes. I can't believe a stupid gimmick has lasted 45 years. It boggles the mind.

    Should the NBA abolish the 3 point line?

    That's like me asking you if your favourite player 2 decades ago was Antoine Walker because you like the three-point line. You can't take bad(Burke) to middling(DeMar) players and use them as your example.

    There's an urban legend Carlsberg hooked up a beer pipe to Niels Bohr's house after he won the Nobel prize. Maybe you just gotta do that.
