Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 1 News Thread

I don't think any team would give up valuable assets for decrepit CP3. They'd have to bundle a decade's worth of picks with him like we love to do. IMO like Split T said they'll just let his contract run out so they can reap the salary savings. He didn't add much value for them this year and isn't ...

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.
If Giannis isn’t available, that might get him a reprieve.

Re: Israel / Palestine

They are trying to bring attention to their cause and it worked. Sure it also pissed off a lot of people trying to get to whatever it is they are trying to get to. I think people like me in America are sympathetic to both sides and blame both sides. America is caught trying to split the difference ...

Four picks and three swaps for KD, five picks for Brad, three picks for Royce, one for Drew, plus whatever the players we traded were worth.

I remember dominating the Mavs in the regular season not so long ago. Can’t put any stock in that. Playoffs are a new game.

The Suns are clear favorites to win the series by the bookmakers so far.
Just checked DraftKings; they have us at -115 and Minny at -105. That makes us the technical favorites but not “clear” favorites.

FanDuel is similar: PHX -120, MIN -102.

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Suns-Timberwolves Round 1 News Thread

I'm sure we'll hear plenty about it for the next week, but this is a huge series for Anthony Edwards. In a bizarre way, it seems the Wolves are under more pressure than the Suns to win the series. How is that bizarre? The Wolves are favored. They went into the last day of the season tied for #1. Th...

Not that crazy of an idea. It’s all about saving face.
I doubt a Netanyahu government would perceive an ineffective attack as “saving face,” even if it’s in retaliation for an ineffective attack.

Suns in 5
Let's take it one game at a time.
Suns in 1. Timberwolves so utterly humiliated that they forfeit the series rather than subject themselves to it again.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft

Gobert would be awesome on this team tbh…you can’t use him as connector much, but he’d help the defense so much and he’d give us a real lob threat. I’d love to find someone in that mold. I don’t follow college basketball, but Yves Messi seems like the closest to that based on what I’ve read. Maybe ...

Re: Around the NBA: Week 25 (4/8 - 4/14)

It’s crazy to win 46 games and your reward is the 9-10 game. I guess that’s better than winning 46 games and not having a chance at all (or winning 48 and not having a chance at all, as happened to us about a decade ago), so kudos to the league for coming up with the PIT. As for the up and comers, d...
