i'm sure they dont actually plan for him to be their #1 guy on a contending team but they can't say that while he's listening

could flip all those picks for a player no?

it’s either delusional wishful thinking or more likely posturing intended to increase/maintain mitchell’s trade value

yeah has everyone forgotten how danny ainge messaging works already

was my thought too seems kind of pointless but who knows
― lag∞n, Friday, 1 July 2022 20:48 (one year ago) link
I know
― k3vin k., Friday, 1 July 2022 20:50 (one year ago) link
i do think that danny will simply not trade him until he gets the deal he wants theres no fire sale
― lag∞n, Friday, 1 July 2022 20:50 (one year ago) link
it will be interesting to see how all this plays out, i don’t think ainge has ever been in the position before of having a star trying to force his way out as the clock runs down on his contract. he was on the other side of the table during the star hunting saga in boston

kind of interesting to note that the durant trade request has not frozen league business as was predicted.

most teams prob decided they didnt have or didnt want to part with the assets to get him
― lag∞n, Friday, 1 July 2022 21:13 (one year ago) link
just matching his salary is hard
well i think it’s notable that the suns haven’t made a single move yet aside from extending booker and the only moves the heat have made are resigning oladipo with his bird rights and giving deadmon a tiny contract
― J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2022 21:15 (one year ago) link
i agree, that is notable

tho smart white and brogdon are all kind of same guyish
― lag∞n, Saturday, 2 July 2022 4:00 AM
not really. hes much better at offense than either of those guys and sees himself as a lead scoring guard. and he once took the pacers to the 4th seed as their best player... thats not something smart would ever do. if hes healthy for the playoffs its a total steal

the fit is weird though. brogdog loves to hold the ball and he thinks hes a much better creator than he actually is when he should really stick to scoring. and he's not going to help at all with stopping those faster more mobile guards. will be interesting to see how it plays out

to the other point yeah i suspect if the celtics had brogdon they would have won the nba championship, which is not to say they will win it with him, cause who knows how good the teams will be

the bucks supposedly loved him but cant even wait out an injury instead they trade him for grandpa ibaka, and then the kings wont even give him a look, its weird all im saying i mean maybe he just sucks idk xp
― lag∞n, Friday, 1 July 2022 23:38 (one year ago) link
maybe. this is what the warriors do on the fringes now tho. swing on higher upside guys for cheap who are coming off injuries like otto
― Spottie, Friday, 1 July 2022 23:39 (one year ago) link
yeah i mean it seems like a worthy risk i just dont understand why the kings and bucks werent willing to do

DiVincenzo's potential contribution could be much higher than his recent performance. He is about year removed from surgery to repair a torn ligament in his left ankle. Much like an ACL, it can 12 months to regain strength / confidence in the ankle.— Dr. Nirav Pandya, M.D. (@DrNiravPandya) July 1, 2022

the nets apparently didn’t even offer bruce brown a contract, what in the hell is happening over there?
― in places all over the world, real stuff be happening (voodoo chili), Saturday, 2 July 2022 13:56 (one year ago) link
xp bryn does one thing extremely well and that is shoot 3s, his form is so pure. he can hit runners/floaters if chased off the line. that's about it! he's a turnstile on D and has no playmaking skills to speak of, but if he plays 10 minutes a game and hits a couple of 3's per game, he's valuable in that role.
― terence trent d'ilfer (m bison), Saturday, 2 July 2022 14:52 (one year ago) link
i should say that bryn puts in effort on D, its just hes within the normal range of size for a human man in a league full of human men in the exceptional size range
