?? Of course it makes sense. Guards around Booker's level (i.e., peaking around ~15th-20th best player in the league) tend to hit their apex...
The Devin Booker fall off: 2024 vs 2025 Points/36: 27.1 ---> 25.0 FG%: 49.2% ---> 45.7% 2P%: 55.2% ---> 53.4% 3P%:...
If this bothers someone, respectfully I think they have some challenges with critical thinking. It would have zero relationship to the...
I think a lot of fans are a little slow to update to the NBA of 2025, and are mentally stuck on the NBA of 2022 or 2019 or 2016. Outside of a...
Disagree on Jalen, personally. - I think the FO extended Jalen with a plan to trade him, and are motivated to do so before his asset value turns...
When will Stone get his credit as the greatest activist short seller in the NBA. 1. Rockets have Nets picks -> Stone heavily leaks that the...
Jalen would be the obvious main piece in a LaMelo trade construction IMO. Durability / salary matching / age / fan appeal / potential all would...
There's this weird dynamic across all NBA fanbases where fans have this misplaced fear/expectation that their own players will get waaay more...
I’ve been banging the LaMelo drum but I definitely wouldn’t trade Sengun for him straight up, just for value reasons. Would have to be a Jalen +...
Fair, my line would be trading so much for him that we don’t have enough left for the *big* trade down the line. So something less than Fox. IMO...
The “staying on the court” part is the risk for sure (and why he’s attainable). Frequent ankle sprains seems pretty innocuous as far as long term...
People treat it as a joke but I think LaMelo to Houston has legs. I’ve talked about it before from the CHA angle, but from the HOU angle: - You...
Winning this season (beyond just making the postseason) is obviously not their priority. They've made that clear. Contending for a title during a...
IMO Stone and the FO made it as clear as day that pushing to go beyond just making the postseason this year is not the priority. Every team in...
Another rugged 6'4 - 6'8 wing who can't shoot. Stone & Udoka continue to corner the market.
Let's go through your examples (most of whom are in a different age range than Booker, and not comparable for that reason, but still): 1. KD...
Brooklyn is 2.5 games out of the play-in right now while doing everything they can to lose. To me at least, it seems very clear that if Brooklyn...
True. We are a very game plan-able team. We have a lot of guys who only want to do certain things offensively and don't really trust in their...
If Booker is traded he can’t do an extension until Summer 2026, because of the extend and trade rules. If he stays in PHX he could do an extension...
The underdiscussed Booker issue: his looming contract extension. Booker is on a supermax right now, as we all know. But also Booker is extension...
