    Never right; never lacking in conviction or condescending tone.

    Go Jopatmc. Go away.

    he self banned himself from the D&D as @jopatmc after the 08 election. Wiggled around it by making a new moniker....holic is nobody. He pretends to have inside info for attention and CF gives it to him

    Honestly Jopat, do your crazy predictions and analysis. Just drop the condescending I’m-smarter-than-you tone, and the fake insider crap, and I think you’d be fine. I for one wouldn’t bother you one bit, and frankly I’d commend you for recognizing the flaws in your inter web ways.

    Bye Bye Butler

    Good riddance and avoidance. Don't want. Too short- sighted. The second he didn't opt in we were done. Next.....

    So we're holding and i like it. I ain't nervous at all. We are going to come out great. I know it looks bad right now. But we're going to come out great.

    Teams have extremely overpaid. Indy for instance. $85 million gor Malcolm Brogdon AND a first and a second. .?!?! That's insane. Brogdon is a nice player. But a first, a second, and $85 million is nuts.

    Ego is better than Brogdon.

    It appears to me like there are 3 teams vying for Capela. Boston, Atlanta, and possibly Sacramento. Although Sac did go ahead and sign Dedmon. So they may be out.

    But they're is great opportunity. OKC and Miami are stuck. And i think we're going to be the cleaner. Especially if we can move Capela into another Atlanta cap space and garner a couple picks for him....

    Kawhi is still out there. TBD. But berri little cap space left. Miami is jammed up now trying to move out salary so they can finish Butler deal. That could easily.... easily play our way with Capela going to Atlanta or Sac for draft picks.

    I originally stated over a year ago that our small forward targets were

    Kawhi
    Butler
    Winslow
    Oubre Jr

    Im revising that list to

    Winslow
    Oubre
    Jaylen
    George
    Otto

    Yes, possibly George. OKC HAS to get out of the tax. With their first rounder theyre at 147 million with 9 players. They have to shed around 20 million. With cap space clamming up..... they are up a creek. They may be forced to monetize Paul George.

    Miami is similar. They need to get below 138 with the Butler sign- and- trade. Maybe Kawhi stays on Toronto and they can give away Goran to the Lakers... but if that happens... what are the Thunder going to do.


    Remember..... we are after two guys.



    PS: A quick aside on Philly and Elton Brand. Elton Brand is the next league stool pigeon. What he did was foolish. First of all he overpaid Horford. As did a lot of teams for their acquisitions. And then here's the lineup

    Simmons Richardson backcourt
    Tobias Embiid Horford frontcourt

    That makes zero sense. And them when he tries to trade somebody because they done mesh well he's going to have to take back a bad contract. Wiggins or something like that.

    Brand just locked up that franchise. Big time. Whst a disaster. You guys that want to trash me about Philly Horford, enjoy it. Brand just ruined them. Let it burn.

    Thanks for the insight

    Gotta say I do like this Paul George theory. Not that I think it's realistic...but I like it. You heard it here first folks.

    My favorite part of a Holic prediction thread is when he flames out spectacularly, then merely quadruples down in a new essay.

    Holic gonna Holic, after all.

    You really think @basketballholic that anyone will read your nonsense as if you're an insider or top knowledge guy? TWO stars, who were and are you kidding?
