You got C, D, and E. Murray is on there, but not F. Didn’t include Fox or SGA.
Though SGA has real similar numbers to A...just looked them up
19.6/6.1/3.1/1.2/.5 .46/.34/.82 .556/3.9/-.37

Agree, partially why I wanted to do this. Also because of how similar C and D look on paper and how different their reputations are.

Josh Jackson sighting tonight in Memphis! Maybe my bet isn't lost yet re: JJ vs Portzingis.

This one tweet encapsulates what I think of the Jazz.

Olidipo is back for the pacers. Curious to see how far they can go this year. They were already playing well before his return

Ha,I thought it ended on Jan 1st 2020. but happy to let it ride out the rest of the season. Josh has a long way to go considering he was sent to the G-league all year and even got suspended by his team there. And considering how bad KP has been all year, that says a lot.

You knew the Knicks were in trouble when they brought Morris in for "veteran leadership". The BS was flowing in NY in the summertime. I love seeing them just crash further and further down.

I bristle at nearly every tweet from espo due to his forced pop-culture narratives, but that one is perfect.

Woj reporting that the salary cap and luxury tax threshold are likely to be lower in 2020-2021 due to loss of revenue from China. This suddenly makes Tyler Johnson WAY more valuable as a trade chip.

I don’t actually know if Jones knows what a trade chip is. I have a sneaking suspicion he just thinks every team is charged a 2nd round penalty by the league to complete a trade.

I can't imagine how he would have gotten on in SA.
