players crumpled by the winds and lost in time, no longer sure which team they've been traded to, weeping under a flag formed by a torn phoenix suns jersey

BillSimmons: And hello to the Miami fans who think they can get Dragic for Mario Chalmers, Danny Granger and a protected 1st in 2017

This is the move that makes the least sense to me today isn't McDaniels kinda good or is this just a they don't want to have to pay him for overperforming as a second round pick thing
― we just form a f#!king wall (agent hibachi), Thursday, 19 February 2015 20:25 (nine years ago) link
they don't want to pay for him because theyre the worst

the real KJ mcdaniels story is that hinkie tries to fuck second round picks over on their contracts so mcdaniels took a one year deal that makes him a RFA this summer and the sixers don't wanna pay him
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 19 February 2015 20:27 (nine years ago) link
putting people in the stocks should be revived for sixers management. they could be pelted with rotten produce by passersby.

WHY

Why do teams keep giving him work
― pursuit of happiness (art), Thursday, 19 February 2015 21:43 (nine years ago) link
He is not good at any facet of basketball
clippers glue factory makes sense, bc that's just a thing they do (see "turkoglu, hedo") but idk what the cavs think he can do

Cenk Akyol a 6'5 guard from Turkey, was drafted 59th in 2005 by Atlanta but has been traded 3 times within the last year.
Currently listed as the fourth-string SF for Anadolu Efes!
― polyphonic, Thursday, 19 February 2015 23:23 (nine years ago) link
this is pretty disastrous for the suns obviously, but my feeling is that once they knew goran was gone for sure they realized they would have to start isiaih thomas, which isn't a great idea long-term, so they figured why not get rid of him too. you wonder whether if they had more time they could have gotten more for him, or if it would have been smarter to just wait until the offseason

i am just going by what i heard on the radio today so i'm sure i will change my opinions but quick impressions:
winners:heatokcphilly
losers:knicks (dragic was their only shot at a star for next year)suns
― k3vin k., Friday, 20 February 2015 00:36 (nine years ago) link
Okc set to go on that playoff push now
― Steph def def (Spottie), Friday, 20 February 2015 00:49 (nine years ago) link
won't be tough to get in now that the suns are out of the picture, but it'll be interesting how high they can climb
― k3vin k., Friday, 20 February 2015 00:51 (nine years ago) link
btw i haven't even seen this whiteside guy play yet but if he's actually good the heat are probably the 4th best team in the east now easily
― k3vin k., Friday, 20 February 2015 00:52 (nine years ago) link
He's on some linsanity light action rn, seems good tho
― Steph def def (Spottie), Friday, 20 February 2015 00:53 (nine years ago) link
yeah guys who blow up like this out of nowhere always seem like fools gold to me but who knows
― Clay, Friday, 20 February 2015 00:54 (nine years ago) link
i've avoided watching him because i'm skeptical of big guys who suddenly learn how to play basketball and because the heat are (were!) depressing, but i guess if it's gone on for this long i'll have to
― k3vin k., Friday, 20 February 2015 00:56 (nine years ago) link
His timing on blocking shots is perfect

Maybe add him to the roids thread tho

re: phoenix, they went all in on bledsoe contract-wise so i'm not sure you'd have kept dragic happy under any set of circumstances, so they needed to move him for whatever and miami offered some whatever so they took it. the thomas deal gets them a first rd pick plus a decent guard in replacement. brandon knight is having a solid year, and supposedly can play the 2 so maybe there'll be less difficulty distributing time and positional role among 3 point guards.
maybe phoenix isn't getting hosed in all of this
