2019-20 NBA Regular Degular Season thread

love to fixate on hiring someone who already has a better job

imagine if the knicks identified and developed young talent

wonder if anyone wants horf on that contract with how hes played this year

mb they cld get back a perimeter player in a similar situation

celtics going all in on the 6-8 concept

The Boston Celtics reportedly have strong trade interest in Davis Bertans, per @SIChrisMannix.

my big chance

lol

kyrie-brown-hayward-tatum-bertans smallball lineup is plainly unguardable

i mean kemba!

sorry kemba!

lol they both have cute 5 letter k names and are small point guards and have played for the celtics

i don't think he's getting traded but bertans would shred on the celtics

wolves being an offensive juggernaut that sometimes makes the playoffs wld be a pretty strong upgrade tbh

it's funny because in this situation the wolves could actually be preying on the desperation of two other teams, by essentially turning robert covington into multiple first round picks. but of course in actuality the wolves are the most desperate of them all.

idk know about you guys but i think its time for the sixers to make a panic trade

I would trade Horford to the Knicks for whatever combination of trash they have on short term deals.

I think in the offseason, Brown needs to go, Elton Brand definitely needs to go, and one of Simmons/Embiid needs to go.

also isn't gersson rosas supposed to be pretty respected? is this a thing ownership is making him to do to make KAT happy?

bertans trade prob looks like romeo + filler + low first (celtics have their own and bucks picks iirc)

which is a lot for what cld be a rental of a guy who cld just be on a heater

cld also turn the celtics into a contender

aww dont do that to horf he deserves better

seems like you take the could be a contender gamble every time in a chaos season

yeah prob true

wld be super interesting to see the celtics just try to out score / swarm giannis brow et al instead of guard them

is this a thing ownership is making him to do to make KAT happy?

seems clear to me

poor brown, has never had a roster to work with that makes sense. probably still the right move tho

hell get another job whenever he wants

knicks are usually hiring it’s a fun place to live

knicks is more of a 4th job

btw firing yr gm two days before the trade deadline is legit funny kudos

It still baffles me that Iguodala doesn't want to play with the Grizzlies. That's a fiesty team and he could really help them. He'd really rather get a cheap ring and hang out in LA? It just makes me sad.

he is a tech investor

yeah I don't know about this Wolves stuff, obv don't trust them

I don't see how it works without shedding Wiggins which I don't know what team would do that

Dieng is low key having a good season and I think only has next season left on his deal so he might be a part of a deal, he's probably more palatable in some ways just because of the deal and he plays hard

really don't want to lose RoCo but I hope he ends up someplace that is a contender.

I haven't really seen him play as much but Dlo worries me from what I've read, I dunno...I guess being the Wolves if we don't land him he will turn into a star and if we do get him he will flame out

95% of the sixers problems are coaching imo

cmon their roster makes no sense

bertans trade prob looks like romeo + filler + low first (celtics have their own and bucks picks iirc)

zach lowe said the wizards are asking for multiple firsts for bertans

yeah that's insane, ive been criticizing their roster balance since the offseason, there's not some magical way to get offense out of it that brown didn't find

guess they were willing to trade bertans after all

romeo + a first is like two firsts

celtics wld prob rather give up their and bucks picks this year than trade romeo but it wld mean sending kanter and they just dont have the center depth to do that

tho whether kanter actually fulfills their center needs is debatable

i think it's more that he doesn't want to move from the west coast than anything about the basketball situation

Yah both parties agreed to this approach I don’t see the issue.

he seems like a good guy but I’m still bitter about him leaving the nuggets after one year so fuck him

im sure iggy didnt feel like his body cld take a whole season and that the grizz were gonna suck and then once they started being feisty the plan was already in place

they acquired him strictly to flip him and none of these contenders are in a hurry to trade for him. if they wanted him to play or not pay him then they could have forced him to report at any time. he's not a distraction cos he's not even around the team.
