The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

I would be devastated if my team got the 3rd overall pick and wasted it on a Reed Sheppard talent

Houston's interesting. They blew three top-3 picks on Jalen Green, Jabari Smith and Reed Sheppard. They hit paydirt with Sengun and Thompson. Then they were able to trade for Durant. They need a competent guard. They're a Jrue Holiday away from being a real title threat.

FWIW, Cam Boozer would be able to do a lot of stuff Sengun is doing and is a more natural 4.

I'd feel comfortable predicting that Brice Sensabaugh can be as good as Buddy Hield.

The Lakers look like a 10th team at best without LeBron

It’s always a good day when the Lakers lose.

Jabari is good. Was quite helpful tonight.

I’m shocked Ayton wasn’t the answer.

I watched the whole game and I'm not sure what was worse, his play or his hair?

Caruso almost had a crazy poster because Sheppard ole'd him to the rim

Got fouled on that btw.

Game one was a banger

Think HOU definitely has a PG problem. Sengun can do a lot of the heavy lifting but they will miss FVV dearly. They have a ton of assets and so much talent….if I were them I wouldn’t wait and I’d make a trade this season. Only so many good KD years left.

Who you targeting though?

Off the top of my head…Jrue, Garland, IQ.

McCollum should be cheap from the Wizards. I guess it would be tough to match salary though.

HOU has all their picks, two additional good picks, and a 2027 swap with BKN. I can see why they’re angling for Giannis/other mega star. But I still think that they shouldn’t toss away this season.
