I'm surprised Booker didn't get at least some 4th or 5th place votes. His raw numbers may have been down, but even as good as Paul is, we're not the team we are this season without him.
Re: Around the League: Week 14 3/22-3/28
But people see that Book's numbers are down from last year, but we are playing a lot better and think, oh yeah they got Chris Paul. That is why they are good.wpmiller42 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 09, 2021 11:24 amI'm surprised Booker didn't get at least some 4th or 5th place votes.

I bet the Pacers will go after Stotts. He could work there for 20 years.
Re: Around the League: Week 14 3/22-3/28
I'm proud of Book for stepping back and doing what's best for the team. But I do like when he asserts himself now and then like he did in game 6 against the Lakers. That was a big statement that he wasn't afraid of the moment.Indy wrote: ↑Wed Jun 09, 2021 1:14 pmBut people see that Book's numbers are down from last year, but we are playing a lot better and think, oh yeah they got Chris Paul.

Isn't he 70? And after living in NY and LA the last several years, wtf would anyone choose to live out their last good years in Indiana?

Re: Around the League: Week 14 3/22-3/28
Age may be a factor and maybe he doesn't want to be a head coach at this point but he was supposedly at the top of their list last year. I don't think he'd mind Indiana as much since he's more of a laid back country guy anyway.

Might depend on whether the nets can win it all this year...?

Bridges not getting a single vote tells me everything I need to know about DPOY voting. KCP? GTFOH.
Re: Around the League: Week 14 3/22-3/28
Look at those homer-ass votes. KCP? Thybulle? Jrue? GTFOH.
Re: Around the League: Week 14 3/22-3/28
Thybulle and Jrue are very good defenders. I feel like Butler is rep at this point and KCP has no business being on the list.
Re: Around the League: Week 14 3/22-3/28
KCP is more than a stretch to be one of the best 3 defenders in the league. It is crazy.
Re: Around the League: Week 14 3/22-3/28
Yep, he defended Book better than anybody in the L.

NBA likely to add expansion franchises in Seattle, Las Vegas
https://nba.nbcsports.com/2021/05/20/re ... las-vegas/
I'd really like to see this. Seattle is still hurting from losing the Sonics -> Thunder. But they got to retain the team's history, banners, logo, team name. Bringing the Sonics back would be great for the city. And I think the league has enough talent that it could field 2 more teams without the league being too watered down.

I love it for Seattle. They were a great basketball town. I had the opportunity to go to one of their playoff games when I lived there and the fans were great.
