    its a myth the higher picks are great anyway... best players we have now is from midteen picks

    GMs always get pressurized by public into drafting the flashy hype guys at the top instead of the true talent and potential

    and its not a coincidence last time the top pick won MVP is 10 years ago

    …says the person who’s moniker is based on a number 1 pick, GOAT center who led the team to two championships…

    We went from bums like Furkab Kornmanxhd (sp?, WTF) requesting trades to Kyrie and KD getting traded. I love NBA trading deadline season.

    Who beats a healthy Suns in the playoffs? This isn't 17 Warriors inevitable, but clearly the best roster in the league.

    Suns vs Sixers finals would be the best.

    Better hope KD and CP3 are healthy. They did lose quite a bit of depth as well, so KD will be expected to play heavy minutes. Curious what other moves they may make since they have a few other contracts they could move.

    Booker has Harden hamstrings, too. I don't think they lost depth, though. They lost Bridges and Johnson and got back Durant and Warren. Looks even. I think the key will be health. And how do they give their important players rest while moving up in the standings and building chemistry for the playoffs.

    Does that make it more urgent for Denver to get Gordon?

    Sure he is but for how much longer? Nets are going to get some really good picks with Kd and Paul both almost pushing 40 and not being able to stay healthy.


    Now they have absolute no defense. They shoulda tried their best to include overpaid scrub Ayton.

    I could see Memphis, Dallas, Denver and Clippers all gunning to take them down and CP3 getting injured again.
