levine still has some —upside— but hes never really put it together, has been majorly injured, doesnt seem like a good risk

lavine is super fun to watch, I kinda miss him on the Wolves even if I don't think he's ever gonna be part of a good team

i’d rather have lavine on that contract then wiggins on his max

xpost yeah I probably would too, barring some huge breakthrough wigs is gonna be one of the most untradeable contacts in the league

if i was in wolves management that contract would keep me up at night

Nurkic 4/48 to stay in PDX
― Hall of Fam (Spottie), Saturday, 7 July 2018 04:36 (five years ago) link
I don’t hate that
― Clay, Saturday, 7 July 2018 04:40 (five years ago) link
4/48 sounds fine to me. Nurkic is young. he shows flashes of excellence, but he's unreliable. compared to the Meyers Leonard contract, this is sober good sense.
― A is for (Aimless), Saturday, 7 July 2018 04:45 (five years ago) link
that seems like a great price
― k3vin k., Saturday, 7 July 2018 05:04 (five years ago) link
esp considering he’ll be only 27 in that fourth year
― Clay, Saturday, 7 July 2018 05:14 (five years ago) link
I’m seeing 4/53 but it’s negligible
yeah
― k3vin k., Saturday, 7 July 2018 05:15 (five years ago) link
krokmaz is the next peja
― 龜, Saturday, 7 July 2018 13:54 (five years ago) link
nurk prob not a guy who will be able to play much in the playoffs as the league is currently constructed unless a match up really falls portland’s way but he’s a really good regular season player
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 7 July 2018 14:25 (five years ago) link
its weird how smallball just trumps trad centers theres got to be a counter there somewhere idk
― sprout god (lag∞n), Saturday, 7 July 2018 14:37 (five years ago) link
dunk shld be worth 2.3-2.7 points

its cool there are so many guns any mental breakdown can easily be turned into a police execution
― sprout god (lag∞n), Saturday, 7 July 2018 15:51 (five years ago) link
the counter in theory should be posting up idk how it works in practice though. you can't score 3 points in the post in the offs because the refs don't call fouls
― ciderpress, Saturday, 7 July 2018 16:05 (five years ago) link
rebounding too shd work but the problem is if u crash the glass that just increases the smallball fastbreak advantage, i think the whole thing basically comes down to that its so much easier to score in transition than the halfcourt these days
― sprout god (lag∞n), Saturday, 7 July 2018 16:11 (five years ago) link
also feel like scoring in the post takes lots of skill, prob just easier to try and teach players jump shots
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 7 July 2018 16:34 (five years ago) link
tim kawakami on zach lowe pod was talking about how the warriors really want post scoring and are using boogie as a sort of test run/proof of concept for future bigs they may want to sign (brow) but aside from someone like brow it just seems like post scoring in the offs is gonna be such a specialized skill, something that is done in 2 min spurts if a match up falls a certain way this is my prob with a team built around joel embiid that nobody really talks about
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 7 July 2018 16:36 (five years ago) link
If the NBA used FIBA goaltending rules it'd change things for the better. Ball is live when it hits the rim and either team can go get it without worrying about "in the cylinder" bullshit. Make your bigs matter.

I personally like drive and kick basketball a lot more than post up basketball and don't really care if big men are important or not

i hope hes good enough to be a true nba heel, two incidents in two games, off to a sterling start

Source close to Chris Paul tells me that CP3 is advocating for the #Rockets to acquire his good friend, Carmelo Anthony. Melo, 34, made a career-high 169 3-pointers last season on a career-high 474 attempts (35.7 percent). https://t.co/C8LT4rSpFF— Jordan Schultz (@Schultz_Report) July 8, 2018
