key word: try

otm. they're going to have to attach a pick or useful player to it or take back some bad contracts. or just dupe the kings.

how about whiteside for tyson chandler and change? feel like that would be good for both teams. whiteside was born to be a sun

reasonable

so the hawks just let bud go. i have no idea why but assume bud wanted to move on. fuck

the true rebuild is on

hey, if pop retires this summer? bud would be top of the list for spurs. just sayinnnnn

uhh

Rumor: 76ers increasingly confident about signing LeBron James https://t.co/gUx5MR5tXN

lol that would be so sick

we cn only pray for a huge personality conflict between bron and ben

im really not enthused abt the carpet bagger lebron james interfering with the celtics rightful 2019 nba championship

sixers need to wait their turn

celtics prob in that second tier even if bron doesn't go to philly tbh

celtics won 55 and have significant improvements baked in already before making any moves

they'll be great in the regular season for sure

they will prob win next year

three allstars + two soon to be allstars + the best coach, the best defensive team, theyre on the verge of winning a playoff series right now without their best two players with a roster of majority under 25 y/o players and u know danny will do some good low key off season moves at the very least

i think this was supposed to be the year they go for brow but the pels didn't crash and burn again

yeah it will be interesting, I think they lack the star power to really be on the houston/GSW level when the playoffs come but they're just below

depends on the leaps the young guys make

generally the nba is about star power but thats not the only way to do it, these celtics are kinda like a detroit style ton of really good players who play well together a, except they have more star power, theyre like detroit with more stars, bout to stomp all over the flawed lakers (rockets, dubs)

brown and tatum are so far ahead of the curve and theyll be better next year, its kinda funny how everyone is just accepting that they shd beat the bucks even tho the celtics are missing their best two players and the bucks have an mvp candidate, what other team wld be in this series w/o their best two players

if bron leaves cleveland and doesn't go to the sixers i still think i'd have boston as the favorites

we also still take embiid's health for granted. if anything happens to him the sixers top out at a second round exit probably.

yeah bron to sixers cld blow up in any number of ways, but cld also be completely unstoppable, i hope it doesnt happen it sounds bad

if bron goes to the sixers they'd be the favorites to make the finals even w/o embiid i think

i still think Bron returns to Cleveland, though it depends on how they exit the playoffs or if they--hear me out--win it all.

in the east or overall? the latter seems premature

praying for the cavs to succeed now

yeah the east obviously xp

this is not directed at anyone here but one thing I think tends to be under appreciated is when teams like boston play well without a superstar player or players, there is only so much improvement possible from re-adding that superstar or superstars. the team dynamics change in ways that compensate for their absence, other players grow into roles, etc. adding these players back is not the same as just adding the value that was missing, it is a proportionately smaller improvement

that said the playoffs is where that will really matter so idk. celtics will def be east favorites next year (pending bron decision part 3) but healthy warriors and rockets teams still seem a cut above to me

we also still take embiid's health for granted. if anything happens to him the sixers top out at a second round exit probably.

yeah for sure

unless they have lebron lol

wow one post the celtics dont have enough star power the next adding a superstar wont do anything

my take adding extremely good players is good, will improve the team a lot, but ill guess well just have to see what the outcome of replacing shane larkin with kyrie irving and marcus morris with gordon hayward is

also replacing all their young guys with one year more experienced versions of themselves

wow one post the celtics dont have enough star power the next adding a superstar wont do anything

― lag∞n, Thursday, April 26, 2018 1:13 PM (five minutes ago

heh that first post was referring to the fact that hayward and irving might not be the sort of superstars necessary to give the big dogs a real run, but we'll see

yeah celtics will be better next year. east this year is also quite weak, as always

This just makes sense to me really.

that would be fine for everyone i think. lakers really need an innings eater at the 5, if they leave the rotation as it is they're adding a ton of unnecessary wear and injury risk to lebron and kuzma and whoever else they use to fill up 26 minutes a nite.
