If the Bucks lose in the 1st round, do they fire Doc Rivers? His brief tenure there as head coach has been bumpy to say the least.
Be the first team to pay four head coaches concurrently. That’s a record worth breaking for sure.

Where was Ingram and McCollum? Zion carried big time til he went out.
CJ was out there…Not sure why Ingram was on the bench
He was out there, but was a total non factor.

Watching the Kings - Warriors game and I think Alex Len wouldn't be a bad backup big for us. He's sort of a very poor man's version of Nurkic... Plays more under control than Eubanks and passes well. Not sure how things work with the second apron, but I wouldn't mind seeing him back in a Suns uniform cheaply backing up Nurk next year.

It's almost sad how pathetic the Warriors have become and how far some of their stars have fallen. Klay Thompson zero points in a must-win game, and Chris Paul 3 points and 2 assists. Yikes.

Both them dudes gone. It’ll be interesting to see where they go. I have a hard time believing any contending team will pay Paul more than the minimum. I think Klay could get the MLE somewhere although he seems just as washed.

I think Klay still has something left. Getting out of his safe space with the Warriors should help him better adapt to his limitations.

I'd rather have him than Eric Gordon next season.

The Kings were 0-5 against the Pelicans this season and only one of those losses was by fewer than 10 points.

LMAO at Nurkic for this. Presumably directed at Draymond. I love when players talk trash.

I was harsh when I said Klay was washed like CP lol, I think my main point is I just wouldn’t pay any significant money for him. MLE is more than fair, maybe an 2 year deal in the 15-18 deal range if you’re up and coming team looking to add some veteran presence. Any team willing to pay him 25-30 plus is fucking bananas. Warriors tax situation is pretty fucked, makes the most sense to let Klay and CP3 come off the books completely. Podz and Moody seem ready to take all those minutes anyways.

I'd be cautious at anything more than half the MLE on a contender.

And Booker would never air someone out on social media like that.

Well, maybe Jose Alvarado.

Absolutely, I was thinking of a team like the Magic. A young and promising team that could use some veteran presence. Although it takes one dummy. I could see the sixers try and get him with all the cap space they will have.
