That would suck for him if his stuff is getting shipped to the East coast...

I’ve decided to adopt a positive attitude towards Cody going into the new season hoping and perhaps even expecting a little to see a much improved player. Partly because there are some glimpses here and there but mostly because I’m tired of all the negativity towards him here. He’s had a rough...

It's not about willingness to work hard, it's about Thibs playing a short rotation very heavy minutes throughout the regular season.

Perhaps just sign Chris Paul to shore up the backcourt and we wouldn't be too far off the play-ins.

To be fair, Cody could use some of Danny's temperament. Unfortunately the clip of him biting Tree Rollins is rated 18+

It took me way too long to figure out what the logo farthest left was. Not used to the Clippers rebrand yet.

I knew the 1983 Sixers lost 1 game and went 12-1 (almost living up to Moses Malone’s fo fo fo prediction). Turns out the record is shared with the 2001 Lakers (15-1) and the 2017 Warriors (16-1).

A day late, but this is one of the best recovery blocks I've ever seen

It's especially clear in this series, because SGA and Jalen Williams can and do operate in the mid range. Even Cason Wallace hit a couple of mid range jumpers that turned out to be very important in the end. It's a big weapon when games get scrappy or your offense is getting bogged down. Kawhi I...

I'm unenthusiastic by nature about swaps for the simple reason that they may turn out to be nothing. More of a bird in the hand kind of guy.

Taking on Lillard's contract and giving up Collins and Sexton for a pick swap seems light to me. I'd want that pick outright.

If none of them are available at 5, either Flagg or Harper is. So that would be a pretty decent outcome. 0% of that happening ofcourse. And I'm ok with drafting for need at 21, but at 5 you have to take the best available player.

That's fair. When it comes to the draft I do have a tendency to favor the best outcome for rookies, whilst turning a bit of a blind eye to the downsides.

Really hope we can get him, but we'll probably have to move up from 21 to do so. I'm a firm believer in taking a chance on players that can bring something special despite having some drawbacks and who wouldn't want a 6'9'' playmaker? Obviously he comes with question marks about shooting...

Same here. I've gone from disappointed we'd have to make do with a 5th pick and Tre Johnson to being afraid he might already be gone before 5. Actually think I prefer him over Ace, but I'd be fine with any of VJ/Tre/Ace.

Except that none of the Washington guys can shoot with anything near acceptable efficiency.

If you don't like that, then don't look at The Ringer's latest mock https://nbadraft.theringer.com/mock-draft

That’s fair. And I’d be happy with Harper. But for once I’d like the Jazz to win big.

Ordinarily I’d say take 2nd and run, but this year I’m all in on Flagg. Let the chips fall where they may.
