Bam's their anchor and they're loyal to guys. I don't really get it, think he's overrated a bit but he's their guy.

19/10/4 and all defensive team is overrated? Hate to hear what you think about Ayton 😂

His numbers are decent but he never really pops out when I watch. Doesn't take over games, offense is iffy, isn't overly physical as a big. Really, really solid but I think he's a product of that Heat system.

Bam is 2nd team All-NBA. He's not overrated or overpaid at all.

This. He may not put up 25 ppg when his team needs him, but he offers so much more than just scoring.

There’s an elite tier of role players(I don’t know how else to describe it) and Bam is in there for me. Maybe it would be like an All-3rd piece team…the guys who just can fit anywhere and are absolutely elite as your 3rd best player and can pass as your #2.

Jrue Holiday, Derrick White, Mikal Bridges, Paul George, Bam Adebayo…that would be my starting lineup.

This one kinda hurts...imagine the Knicks being a savvy and fiscally responsible organization.

Deni Avdija going to Portland for Brogdon, #14 and a 2029 pick.

I like Avdija…pretty good return for Washington too. I think Deni fits well with those guards in Portland.

Blazers really have to trade Jerami Grant for me to take them seriously.

Right now, their best lineup is probably Scoot-Simons-Avdija-Grant-Ayton. I don't like that fit at all.

Or they are just gonna play Ayton where he wants, at PF away from the basket.

As much as it pains me (as you can clearly see from my avatar), I would be willing to give them Nurkic.

His own ideal role -- doesn't have to touch anyone or the rim.

Yep, dude has KAT syndrome but isn't nearly as good a shooter.

Isn't Mitchell Robinson a FA this offseason ? Or have an option to be a free agent ?

Ayton would get eaten alive in New York.
