every player with all-star potential is flawed coming into this draft, gonna be a few teams talking themselves out of certain guys. the knock on paolo is ironically size (arms too short to box out with god) and lack of lateral speed which limits his defensive options. jabari can't self-create or finish inside. chet is the monstar shawn bradley and ppl will have questions (fair or not) about his body in the nba. ivey is gonna confuse ppl that he's the next ja but that's probably not his ceiling.

I can tell the hawks are trying to move Collins by the amount of his highlights they keep posting on twitter

banchero measured 6’10.5 without shoes, which was bigger than teams were expecting, i think

I’m told the Hornets were not aware Kenny Atkinson was not taking the head coaching job until @wojespn tweeted the news. Still working to confirm.— Will Kunkel (@WillKunkelFOX) June 18, 2022

the reporting implies that he and charlotte developed some kind of disconnect after it was announced, which really could be.....any number of things, we're talking about charlotte.
lead assistant for the warriors is a sweet gig to fall back on.

kinda crazy to me that marks & the nets don’t catch more heat for how poorly this whole era has gone. they’re gonna end up having given up everything to acquire kyrie and harden to win a total of a single playoff series and be left as, at best, the 4th best team in the east with no way to meaningfully improve their roster. just a total failure!

yeah but if you have kevin durant on your team basketball should be a rigged game. you shouldn’t be losing to the house.
― J0rdan S., Monday, 20 June 2022 17:10 (one year ago) link
if kyrie walks and the nets get nothing in return its a total disaster, i mean it already is obv but people should be fired at that point.
― Spottie, Monday, 20 June 2022 17:39 (one year ago) link
if they dont want to resign kyrie they shd prob just trade him and kd, theres no future without kyrie and prob theres no future with him anyway

yeah thats the thing, on paper and skill/fit wise it makes sense kyrie/kd/ben but then you look at the personalities..
― Spottie, Monday, 20 June 2022 17:47 (one year ago) link
also kyrie just never plays, has terrible vibes, and talks about managing the team after just not showing up to work because er didnt feel like it for the entire three years hes been with them

Miami’s PJ Tucker will opt out of his $7.4 million player option for the 2022-23 season and enter free agency, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.

Perhaps it's time to acknowledge Durant is not the dynasty creating superstar on his own and requires an environment and leadership culture he can't cultivate on his own to win.

The Hornets are looking to trade one of their two first-round picks alongside Gordon Hayward to clear cap space for retaining Miles Bridges, per @WindhorstESPN.— Evan Sidery (@esidery) June 21, 2022

actually nailing/developing a mid lottery pick but then having to attach a first to your obviously horrible free agent signing simply so that you can dump his salary and give the one good pick you've made his second contract... ladies and gentleman, michael jordan

it just sucks. they're not a serious franchise at all and good players are going to languish there until something changes.

I don't understand the "cap space for retaining Bridges" claim though, can't you still go beyond the cap to re-sign your own guys?
