RMDE:

Rivers' tenure with the Clippers was not spotless.

pretty amazing coach search as they just attached themselves to a fired, high-profile coach until another fired, higher-profile approach came along. making trades and letting embiid play more facing up? oops, nevermind.

really neither of those guys is worth the trouble

budward is juuuuuust about to start his 4 year $94M extension this season which makes him pretty hard to trade

think someone wld take him, one of the best shooters there is, put him on a good team and hed do serious damage

i think he's tradeable, he can go be a pain in the ass somewhere else

Has he ever been in the playoffs?

he's ended every season of his career on the kings, so...

when Davis has his shot going it's so frickin hard to defend

did not know that

Two little remembered facts about Bob Gibson: he played one year with the Globetrotters and was a TV analyst for the ABA Nets when they played at Nassau Coliseum

According to a Serbian friend of mine,

he is at least affiliated, which tbf could be said of many american nba players too

Oh so it’s bad to have friends with legal problems?

Incredible that a scenario that makes him more intimidating has occurred

seems a forgone conclusion that the heat are gonna give dragic a big one year deal

dano hello please come to the boston celtics who play walking distance from the historic north end home to a thriving italian american community you will feel right at home its literally exactly the same thing as italy

seems a forgone conclusion that the heat are gonna give dragic a big one year deal

Danilo going back to the Nuggets does make sense especially if Grant walks

the heat have a ton of money coming off the books after next season. they can extend bam and sign a max player.

hollinger wrote about this yesterday in the athletic... apparently the math w/ bam gets tougher if he makes all NBA next year. that would make him a $35m/y player along w/ jimmy and make it so they couldn't sign another max guy outright. but he goes into the sign and trade permutations that make it seem pretty easy if a star decided he wanted to sign there. bam is one of those guys who is right on the cusp of all NBA so will def be one of the more important storylines on that front heading into the season

as for this offseason they have like a billion dollars in room. they can re-sign dragic and crowder on big one year deals and still use the full mid level. hollinger mentions giving those guys 1 year deals w/ 1 year options to maximize the sign and trade value.

yeah that's interesting, AD and jokic would pretty clearly stay ahead of bam assuming health so he would be in a battle for the 3rd team with guys like embiid and gobert.
