2018 NBA OFFSEASON

we're either getting kawhi trade news or a supermax extension in the next 48 hours

he gone

ESPN Sources: Kawhi Leonard was not alone in his meeting with Gregg Popovich today in San Diego.

yep

the third party was lagoon

the shelburne/woj article was basically like "yeah no for real he only wants to go to LA" and im like ://////////// we're really gonna get tobias harris and some late lottery picks arent we fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

how has tobias harris been traded so many times already, he's not even bad

i guess he's in that narrow hot potato zone where he's good enough to get paid but not good enough to pay

so im gonna guess that by playing hardball and saying "LA only", spurs recognize they have LESS incentive to trade him right away bc lakers and clippers current assets arent good enough for the spurs to jump right away. then the spurs think they have time to do some mending of fences because at this point a 10% chance of kashi getting over it is better than what lakers and clippers have to offer.

Charlotte is finalizing a deal to send Dwight Howard to the Brooklyn Nets for Timofey Mozgov, league sources tell ESPN. Nets will save 7M on deal in 2019-20 season, allowing them to create two max salary slots.

dwight on the move again.

Unless I'm missing something, Charlotte took on an extra year of Moz salary (19-20) and two seconds to maybe make sure they duck the tax in 18-19? (Nets have a bunch of extra 2nds). Absolutely brutal. Great deal for the Nets. https://t.co/anvtsRGR8F

sean marks is wicked smaht

the nets are too bad to care about the Dwight curse, reasonable

his deal expires after this year, too, so he's free to sign a terrible deal with some other hapless team

I would kill a man for us to get Tobias Harris back.

what's his defense like

It’s been team dependent. He was fine on the Pistons and better on the Clippers. He’d be good on the Spurs. Dude is VERY Spursy. But obviously not Kawhi. :/

It’s funny how perfect Kawhi is for the current (or even past) Spurs systems. He’s so dumb.

*sigh* yeah...

at this point, if the spurs can be competitive while they develop young talent, im cool. kawhi is special tho. not often you find a guy like that at #15.

harris would immediately become the spurs 2nd best player if he got traded here tho.

haha dwight. what a career

Did he ever do it?

his statistical consistency is extremely impressive but he truly must be the one weird friend everyone has who doesn't mix well with others.

i mean in each time he's been traded he's been or become the best player in the deal. i think because he's not a guy you build a team around but is v productive he's a popular trade piece.

He has all nearly all the skills and nearly none of the brain of an elite NBA player.

oof

"The (Hornets) locker room did not like Dwight Howard," @bwood_33 says on @SiriusXMNBA "Guys were just sick and tired of his act."

dwight playing in china by 2020

the chinese deserve better than that

He can star in the Big3.

It's actually impressive that everything he does is a parody of himself.

I thought Lowe’s piece on Jaylen and Kawhi was good

Lol the hawks’ locker room apparently broke out in cheers when they heard Dwight was traded

lmbo. have any of those teams when the magic were good ever spoke to those days with him?

btw thank you to whoever changed the board descrip

man, giving up the #4 to shed parsons is rouuggggggh

Ian's report is accurate. The Knicks are reportedly exploring the option of trading up to the #4 spot in the draft, currently owned by Memphis. The Grizzlies have been adamant about shedding Chandler Parsons' contract in any deal. https://t.co/z4Yp0w6hfq

they want to trade up for.....bamba??

para bailar la bamba

gracias

dwight was the clear second best player in the nba for a few years, weird career, just a very annoying guy

he still averaged 16.5-12.5 w/ a block and a half a game last year. it's just that everybody has a bone-deep hatred for him.

lol wonder if he'll ask stan van to do his HoF intro speech

after three days of intermittent film study, podcast listening, and reading, here's a comprehensive list of prospects i like, dislike, and am totally confused by:

LIKE:
doncic
jackson jr.
carter jr.
mikal bridges
gilgeous-alexander

DISLIKE:
bagley
porter jr
young
sexton

CONFUSING:
ayton
bamba
knox
walker

otm with porter imo, he looks like a stiff

do you have an opinion of okobo?

after 15 exhaustive minutes of film study, sure! looks interesting as a classic p n' r guy, maybe a ramon sessions type. good size. seems to be able to both shoot and pass. kevin o'connor likes him (#19 on his board). i like the toothpaste-colored unis of his french team.

also how sick is this shit:

Yessssssss

Trading for Dwight was p smart helps hold them down for half the year when they finally get a pick and maybe could be flipped again in a three teamer at the deadline sincerely he’s an expiring

Also looking forward to the bk crowd booing him

I’m pretty out of the loop on the draft but I’m all in on doncic and possibly Bamba
