2018 NBA OFFSEASON

boogie slows teams down for sure. he was always crossing the halfcourt like with like 16 on the clock

yeah wld think its mostly about proving he can be a good teammate and that hes healthy (and getting a ring lol), hed prob be most valuable basketballwise in just extending the warriors very thin roster/a hedge against injury

i think all it would take is one playoff round with a great matchup for him and he could really rehab his value

not to beat a dead horse but lonzo had to like get to his stepback or be wide open to have a prayer with his goofy shot. jackson is out there with all sorts of crazy shit going on and he can hit it.

lonzo's value is tied to pretty much everything except scoring

lonzos value is tied to a piece of poop

i like the idea of bron and lonzo together even tho he can’t shoot for shit... they see the game similarly

haha i was just making a shooting mechanics comment but if we want to talk about how lonzo isn't very valuable that's fine

why do the lakers have seven point guards?

magics quixotic quest for "a leader"

lonzo rondo bronjo

how long before rondo and lonzo get into a fight over a game of connect 4

otoh this might be the only thing that could’ve made the warriors interesting

Who's ready for the Kawhi Leonard trade to the Warriors tomorrow night?

if spurs get klay, yeah im down

the only thing that could’ve made the warriors interesting

We won't be seeing hide nor hair of boogie for quite a few months, yet. He'll be rehabbing, attending team meetings, watching practices, hanging out with assistant coaches. But he won't be visible in an NBA game until much, much later. They'll have to limp along without him (see what I did there).

how did no one call boog? didnt even get an offer from the team he was on eesh

Boogie Cousins said he got ZERO OFFERS (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) in free agency and decided to make a call to Warriors GM Bob Myers.

avery bradely 2/25 clippers

well boogie should certainly be motivated...

it’s such a weird summer. the only teams with cap space are bad and we know the last thing you wanna do with boogie is put him on a bad team.

imo a lot of good players grow up on school, aau and college teams that are all obscenely stacked and playing in the nba is their first experience of parity. its not surprising that they go on to join superteams to dunk on punks

lonzo is good

wait so the clippers dumped austin rivers and drafted two guards so they could overpay avery bradley?

here's a fun fact--paul george, julius randle, and deangelo russell all share an agent! i wonder what else they have in common?

ha

woww

Jimmy Butler and Kyrie Irving are "still trying to figure out a way to play together," per the Chicago Sun-Times. Butler is sick of "the nonchalant attitude of his younger teammates, specifically KAT." Says they wanna team up in the East (maybe in Boston): https://t.co/xMn3PjrQzM

oh hmmmmmm

yikes KAT already pushing away stars.

butler and a bad contract for hayward, who says no

Jimmy is probably also like "get me the hell out of the western conference"

lol right?

no doubt.

celts already passed on a jimmy trade at least once

NBA has to go to top 16 win/loss records for playoff seeding now right?

yeah they have to

the whole thing w/ the wolves is very weird... they would've been a top 4 seed had jimmy not gotten hurt and yet everyone seems to hate it there

MCW to the Rockets who somehow have managed to get worse. And they still havent locked up Capella.

wolves thing is sad, they seemed to be on a perfect trajectory. blame thibs i guess

i don't get defaulting to blame thibs at all. their good players (non-butler division) should consider, like, trying more often

Looks like Cleveland is going to have to find a new basketball player

KAT seems like a pretty immature kid for sure. Wiggins just doesnt seem to care much about hoops?

giving thibs personnel powers was really dumb

They should have player captains and let them pick teams every year

Butler and Kylie on the Knicks next year

I’m...not sold on boogie being terribly important

He is an outrageous talent but also a guy who spends entire defensive possessions not crossing halfcourt trying to come back from an often career destroying injury

I will happily eat this post in June 2019 when the box score of gm 4 wcf Rockets vs warrior reads curry (dnp- sprain) Thompson (dnp- nut punched by cp3) Durant (dnp- flu) green (dnp- suspension, 15th technical) cousins- 45pt 23rb 9ast 5stl and they win

was mostly of a timing issue iirc, butler if anything is a prototypical ainge type

tho on the other hand this prob makes it more likely that the celtics trade kyrie, if its more important to him to be with jimmy than be on the celtics obvs thats gotta give them pause
