    Last night Vic was out dnp - knee I wonder if that was real or he knew a trade was coming do they sat him. It would be crazy if this deal blows up because of a failed physical.

    I’m honestly just hoping we tank and the future BK picks end up being really good...that’s all there is to really look forward to

    I’m just waiting for the Rockets to get rid of all these mediocre players and rev up the tank

    You cannot say the Lakers are unbeatable. They look strong and will most likely win the west, but a lot can happen. Lebron is 36, so I doubt he can perform at the top of his game all season. If Davis gets injured, I think they'll struggle an awful lot. Schröder is a decent point guard, but even he isn't that big of a scorer.

    They've also struggled in half their games this season. The only times where they've looked dominant is against us twice, the Mavs and maybe the Timberwolves. And... we're probably the worst team in the league at the moment.

    That MSN article was a joke lmao. The trade is bad for the nets because they might be bad in 2024 after they win 3 championships together. Lmao.

    We move him and picks and/or PJ to Denver for MPJ+Others.

    MPJ is a marked man for Rafael Stone.

    Different bodies, Durant is long and tall

    Watch Harden get in to shape now. Usually Harden is a hard worker off the court

    Oladipo can take the Nuggets to the next level. Harris + MPJ for Dipo works salary wise, but doubt Denver gives MPJ away even if we add picks.

    We needed those pics. We had 0 assets and no hope. I like the move. I'd rather have a team who's willing to play together. All good things come to an end. So, we have to let things go so we can get even greater things.

    Oladipo before the injury was in the mvp conversation.

    will he be eligible to play against the spurs?

    You really think they're gonna beat Lebron and AD? lulz

    Also Rox got all their picks till 2027 if they're bad in 2024 onwards that 3 top picks going Rockets way.

    A Wood MPJ front court jsut doesn’t work in the west defensively. Wood is already underwhelming. MPJ is even worst.

    let’s just hope 1 of those picks ends up being a blessing and we get a player that we can build around who can carry the franchise for a decade

    I am sad that Paul Shirley and Chris Lavert never got to play in the same era and on the same team.
