I’m already over Durving

were not gonna even get to see them at full strength for two years if ever really whole sitch cld easily bust

Very high bust potential but maybe they’ll find inner peace and everyone else will be the losers in this scenario.

oden is 31 crazy to think abt

he’s a guy I’ll never stop worrying about

he's the saddest and worst of my many sons and yet blood is thick u kno

i understand

Kinda incredible that the big 3 is working.

its a great idea, i wld murder a randomly selected person to get a 3on3 league of current nba stars

or even better it cld be a mix of 3on3 2on2 1on1 horse 21 etc

with the players betting each other obscene amounts of money too

wld be interested in watching fullcourt 4on4 on a short court too

1 on 1 tourney would be so fun but none of the players would agree to it or try hard.

thats why u need the betting

post play thriving in the big 3

Oklahoma City Is trading F Jerami Grant to Denver for a 2020 first-round pick, league sources tell ESPN. Deal brings OKC it’s sixth future first in past week and saves Thunder $39M in salary and luxury tax.

Great move for okc.

the thing about asset collection is that the nba is prob the one sport where there's such a thing as too many picks, and i wonder how OKC will feel about the picks-for-player trades down the line given how PG just did them

i'm confused about what denver plans on doing w all these bigs

Definitely, okc is gonna have to avoid what ainge did and remember to cash in on a big name.

pfft

Kyrie didn't count?

nuggets just rescinded Trey Lyles offer so he is out.

jamychel green 2/10 to stay with clippers. another solid player for them

i'm confused about what denver plans on doing w all these bigs

they just let trey lyles walk, so they seem to have a stable 4-man rotation of jokic-millsap-plumlee-grant with bol bol sitting on the bench.

just seems weird to me to give up a first for a guy who might play crunch time for you... but maybe they feel like they don't need that pick at this point

they also have juancho hernangomez... idk jerami grant is more established but i feel like the trey lyles experiment was a lesson in having too many bigs in this day and age

if you assume murray-harris-millsap-jokic are locked into denver's crunch time 5 barring injury, i'd have been looking to deal a first for someone who could upgrade on that will barton spot but maybe they think grant can play enough wing to do that. he is good i just think the fit is odd

juancho is a wing, isn't he?

maybe the same deal as grant, on the 3/4 line

if denver was willing to trade this pick i'm not sure grant is so compelling that i would do that now over waiting to see team needs and who might be available after december 15.

jabari 2/13 to the ... hawks

avery bradley 2/10 to lakers

good pick up

has he been good at all post celtics

no

but he may play better on a good team.

I'll take Jerami Grant over the 27th pick in the draft any day.

feel like the nuggs prob made that move to add athleticism/length/flying aroundness

bradley seems like a fine pickup at $5m lord knows the lakers need bodies

it's always good when your players can fly around

its one of those tangible intangibles

not a ton of ballhandling/playmaking here

Lebron gotta play 40 mins per night

Lakers better hope Danny Green doesn't go into the same kind of funk he just experienced in this year's playoffs. Any team with Bron and Brow is obviously going to be able to create a lot of open shots but somebody has to actually be able to make them. maybe Quinn Cook?

Danny had a bounce back year in the reg season but his shot disappearing is very on brand for him. there’s a reason we called him icyhot in SA.

way overrated plain 3&d guy imho

Report: After talking to him, Thunder open to trading Russell Westbrook https://t.co/xTfChtwFV5
