Kind of interesting because he's so young. I don't think this is typically a treatment you get early on.

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/2376 ... rt-1-month
Lonzo Ball had a platelet-rich plasma shot to treat and strengthen his left knee and the Los Angeles Lakers point guard said he was able to resume basketball-related activities on the court last week.

Ball underwent the PRP shot and stayed off his left knee for about a month to let it heal after missing the final eight games of the regular season due to a left knee contusion.
Go Suns!

I would be so pissed at this if it were true. I was practically yelling for the Suns to take Bell last year, instead of Reed.

I think everyone who followed the prospects closely around here was saying the same thing.

Reed would've likely went undrafted if McD didn't do a ridiculous reach for him.

This is clearly Warriors GM Bob Meyers burner account. He’s trying to speak things into existence.

I can't remember what podcast I was listening too, but I think it was Ethan Strauss suggesting that it would be something like Klay & Draymond and a pick or two for AD. But he did say that it's one of those deals you have to make the call about not that it was happening.

I find it amazing how good this Warriors team seems to be, and almost unbeatable. Four years ago, LeBron decided to go back to Cleveland and thought they could build a super team to win multiple titles there after winning the lottery 3 times, building young talent, in the years he was gone. There was no impending unbeatable, all-time great Warriors squad at the time. It's going to be interesting how this goes.

You can thank the players union opposing to a gradual increase of the cap. No doubt this peak LeBron beats the Warriors without Durant.

Exactly. But honestly, if you are the players union why would you agree to let the owners keep more of their profits instead of sharing it with workers?

No doubt? Like there's no doubt at all? Even with just Curry, Klay, Draymond and whoever else they would have signed instead of Durant they are better than a Cavs team with Love as 2nd best player.

Agreed. There would be doubt. Much doubt.

Chandler and Knight for Noah and either Frankie N or the #9. Would you do it?

What if it's Chandler and Dudley?

Absolutely. Then you could use #9 to move into the top 5.
