who are the snubs cant think of them off the top? whoever they are in the west theyll probably get in cos dray/rudy/dono are out?
― Spottie, Friday, 4 February 2022 00:54 (two years ago) link
middleton is the big surprise i think. pretty mediocre year by his standards. garland got in over jarrett allen. harden and middleton both got in over jrue.
west went complete chalk i think? wiggins getting in prob cost dejounte murray a spot tho i guess draymond will need an injury replacement so maybe it comes out in the wash. but the 7 guys they named 100% needed to be on there
― J0rdan S., Friday, 4 February 2022 00:55 (two years ago) link
feel like jrue has missed half the season. i like the garland pick.

lamelo and jaylen both having pretty ridiculous seasons, middleton harden not so much

someone else will get in from the east bcuz of KD
― J0rdan S., Friday, 4 February 2022 01:17 (two years ago) link
yeah kd and draymond not playing at the very least
― lag∞n, Friday, 4 February 2022 01:18 (two years ago) link
lamelo should get in for entertainment purposes
― J0rdan S., Friday, 4 February 2022 01:20 (two years ago) link
yeah the league needs to start pumping him up

FVV’s deep three range is insane, dude has basically turned into damian lillard on offense
― J0rdan S., Friday, 4 February 2022 02:34 (two years ago) link
the bar in the east is insanely low lmao
― auld gang syne (k3vin k.), Friday, 4 February 2022 02:37 (two years ago) link
the west reserves are better but i don’t think anyone who was left off the west team would get in over anyone on the east reserve list

out of nowhere incredible final minutes in the lakers-clippers game

i think if you combined both these teams you’d definitely hehe the 7th best team in the west
remember when russ and harden were teammates recentlyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9D93WiYp6KM
― Spottie, Friday, 4 February 2022 17:49 (two years ago) link
you know its bad when melo is calling you out for defense
― Spottie, Friday, 4 February 2022 17:50 (two years ago) link
Westbrook is so over being a Laker. Or an NBA player for that matter. He just wants to chill out and spend all day enhancing his wardrobe. He needs to retire and do just that. It would make him happy and his teammates, too.

TRADES
The Clippers are trading Eric Bledsoe, Justise Winslow, Keon Johnson and future second-round pick to the Trail Blazers for Norman Powell and Robert Covington, sources tell ESPN.— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) February 4, 2022
― Spottie, Friday, 4 February 2022 19:55 (two years ago) link
just a pure salary dump for the blazers huh
― J0rdan S., Friday, 4 February 2022 19:57 (two years ago) link
either covington didn't have that much value in the end or they really wanted to get off that powell contract, which seems prudent
― J0rdan S., Friday, 4 February 2022 19:58 (two years ago) link
clippers just picking up rotation players for free
― call all destroyer, Friday, 4 February 2022 20:01 (two years ago) link
The trade will put Portland under the luxury tax.The Clippers tax bill increases from $93.9M to $112.9M (+$19M). https://t.co/ZpEJfML8XM— Bobby Marks (@BobbyMarks42) February 4, 2022

Balmer can afford it
― sknybrg, Friday, 4 February 2022 20:22 (two years ago) link
my guess is they know pg and kawhi are coming back this season and want to make a push
― Spottie, Friday, 4 February 2022 20:23 (two years ago) link
that's the type of trade you can only do with a guy like ballmer signing the checks
― call all destroyer, Friday, 4 February 2022 20:28 (two years ago) link
ty lue actually said last night they’re not expecting kawhi back but both norm & covington do fit into their small ball switch everything style
Ty Lue said when asked about his stars being out, “We know Kawhi's probably not gonna come back.” Asked to clarify later, Lue said he hopes every day Kawhi will return and then reiterated his phrase tonight that was used about PG’s MRI: “Hope is stronger than fear.”— Ohm Youngmisuk (@NotoriousOHM) February 4, 2022
― J0rdan S., Friday, 4 February 2022 20:30 (two years ago) link
yeah, this seems more like getting your christmas shopping done early. they could re-sign convington for a lower number i bet. both those guys are good fits.

hm ok xp

Jackson/Powell/Coffey/Covington/Zubac is a fun league pass team
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Friday, 4 February 2022 20:50 (two years ago) link
the clippers are pretty fun in the same way that the raptors are pretty fun, tho they're less fun than the raptors. the win ceiling on a team like that still seems pretty low -- you need elite players and you need at least some sort of big man -- but it does make for fun basketball
― J0rdan S., Friday, 4 February 2022 20:56 (two years ago) link
raps have an all star at least, and siakim mighta been one too if hed been healthy to start the season.
― Spottie, Friday, 4 February 2022 21:03 (two years ago) link
I feel like the blazers didn’t get enough salary relief here, but they did get a guy who was picked 21st and maybe they really like him
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 4 February 2022 21:23 (two years ago) link
bcuz bledsoe has another year left the salary relief isn’t immediate tho per bobby marks it does get them under the tax this year. but longterm in shedding powell’s contract they’re getting off $60 million in the final three years which feels fairly significant
― J0rdan S., Friday, 4 February 2022 21:31 (two years ago) link
also i bet they feel like they can move bledsoe again in the offseason
Yeah I guess it’s good enough.
