    Give me an example of Bill being very wrong about the inner workings of the salary cap and the CBA. And while you're at it, give me an example of Jalen sorely lacking in basketball analysis.

    Watch any of their videos, including the one in the OP. Bill throws out a lot of trade scenarios that are impossible under the salary cap rules. Jalen always comes unprepared.

    The decision baffled me at the time . It's not like dragon was playing mediocre, he did great while starting. On the premise that the option made him harder to trade they signed a far less proven player to a more toxic contract. Hindsight is 20/20 and this was by far Morey's worst move. We let him go for nothing. At least OKC was able to get something for Harden.

    Already watched it. I can't seem to recall any trades Bill mentioned that were impossible. Besides sometimes when he is throwing out trade ideas it's not all the details, just the main players involved. Bill knows the cap and knows how to balance trades under cap rules.

    The German word for the purpose of the Lin signing is panzer
