Around the League: Week 2 (10/24-10/30)

[INFORMER]

Dario is going through the same thing here.

Dario looks fine. He just isn't very good.

Suns Legend




And it looks like the Mavs are happy with their offseason purchase

[Flagrant Fowl]

I thought McGee would be great as a situational third Center when he signed with the Suns. He mostly played well and a bit more than I expected which was great during the regular season, but that somehow convinced the Mavs he's good enough to be a regular starter.

To make matters worse, they guaranteed him $17M over three years. Who were they competing against with that kind of deal?

[Split T]

Ya I’d rather have Landale at this point and he’s making the minimum

[Shabazz]

McGee is a really good backup, because he's massive and often had a physical advantage against second units. It's a different game when you're going up against Jokic, Embiid and Gobert.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Landale might be the best non-rookie minimum contract in the league. Max Strus could be the only combination of player and contract that's better.

[specialsauce]

McGee sucks. I’m glad he’s gone

[Mori Chu]

McGee sucks. I’m glad he’s gone

McGee was fine as a low-priced veteran backup center. As a starter on a multi-year deal, he'll break your heart. I wanted to keep him here in general but not for that money nor that many years. He's another great example how for so many players, the role, the contract, the expectations matter so much.

Pretty sure our guards thought we still had him on the roster for a half last night.

[Split T]

Does KD finish the season in Brooklyn? I’d vote no…they look a mess. Simmons isn’t the same player

[Flagrant Fowl]

It's definitely trending toward a full blowup of their roster and/or staff in a few months.

[Superbone]

Poor Lakers are 0-4. So sad.

[Shabazz]

I love when they suck, but the fact that the Pelicans have their unprotected pick complicates things.

Nah he was ass for us too against teams that were smart.

He’s a third center.

It’s early but from what we’ve seen in preseason and in his 4 games, he is the back up big we have been looking for. You can run offense through, score in multiple ways, plus get defense out of. He moves well, is smart. I hope his confidence grows shooting the 3 ball as well. Fingers crossed. Dario may never see the light of day if he continues.

[Superbone]

Remember when we lost to the Australian team?

[bajanguy008]

Wolves 3-2 record is flattering, don't think they are playing well as they adjust to the big lineup



So I can't call that game but 0-7 is possible with the high scoring Jazz as the last team coming to town in this tweet, that's gonna be a tough game also

This just Wild.....

[Shabazz]

I saw that that’s the worst 4 game 3 point shooting stretch by any team in NBA history.
