i am notoriously bad at remembering how much things cost but i did get an email today with a number that seemed quite low

yes, I had the same thought!

I’m just going to choose to not post about that clips/thunder video because it was posted here only to hurt me!

well there it is

Exclusive: NBA League Pass is getting a lot cheaper this season.

thats super cool

sold

nice, was totally expecting an email today saying that the summer intern had sent out an email with a typo in it

if bronny is looking like an nba player by that point its no prob but 40 y/o bron trying to bully you into waisting a pick on his son idk, do you have to play him too

Did he learn nothing from his role in Space Jam?

He learned it from watching Doc Rivers.

what the hell happened to dudes knee

very weird. feels like he got caught in this weird place between requiring surgery and not and for whatever reason his body just hasn't healed on its own

he's a clear above average NBA player to me, can ball handle, score, and shoot. they could really use him

one year for a 3-4 week injury doesnt make sense.

ummm what???

The Cleveland Cavaliers have acquired Donovan Mitchell in a trade, sources tell ESPN.

yes!!!!!!!!!!! this is amazing lol

someone get a camera on Stephen A Smith pronto

Cleveland will send three unprotected first round picks and two pick swaps as part of the deal to Utah for Mitchell, sources tell ESPN. https://t.co/vfphmFMIAf

amazing work everyone

Cleveland will send Lauri Markkanen, Colin Sexton and Ochai Agbaji to Utah in the package for Donovan Mitchell, league sources tell @YahooSports.

Full trade: Utah is trading Donovan Mitchell to Cleveland for Lauri Markkanen, Ochair Agbaji, Collin Sexton, three unprotected first-round picks and two pick swaps, sources tell ESPN.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) September 1, 2022

Sexton has agreed to a sign-and-trade deal to join Utah, sources said.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) September 1, 2022

yeah lauri had a good year but is very shaky and they didnt care about sexton at all. the picks are whatever. really interested to see how donovan and garland look together. two undersized guards who need the ball to work, whos gonna play off ball?

seems kinda like a light price for the cavs? at least based on what was being tossed around

idk having all the picks/swaps unprotected is pretty rich

having two ball handlers is good and even nearly a prerequisite in todays game, not that theres no risk their theyre both going to have to adjust, but where id worry about that backcourt is on defense xp

yes both of them are 6'1"

they can stagger with rubio theoretically, not sure how much left he has on D going forward tho

guess they figured they can make up for it with their twin towers, also maybe thinking mitchell can improve, theres no reason he shouldnt be a good defender hes super strong and athletic with cartoon wings

Levert moves to the three i guess? prob makes more sense to bring him off the bench and start a shooter at the three.

yeah they’re obv thinking that allen & mobley can make up for whatever defensive issues the backcourt has. seems a bit simplistic to me but hey

fascinating the knicks wouldn’t match three unprotected firsts. that was supposed to be nothing to them

nba twitter seems to think knicks fans should be upset about this outcome

that team is really intriguing now. if mobley and garland both take a leap this year they could be pretty dangerous

seems clear that the jazz wouldn't make a deal with the knicks without getting barrett in return

judging from this deal the jazz wouldve done it if the quality picks were there

that team is really intriguing now. if mobley and garland both take a leap this year they could be pretty dangerous

i think theyre both going to be really good, maybe not quite this year but eventually

had to look up who cle's coach is

pretty huge deal for a guy who hasnt played since he blew out his knee and who also wasnt that good anyway

Sexton’s new $72M deal is fully guaranteed, sources said. https://t.co/V0w6X7WVM2

— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) September 1, 2022

guess they figured itll be a deal if it pans out and if not who cares

yeah they’ll prob be reaching just to hit the salary flood

sexton is a weirdly efficient gunner that everyone hates. seems like he could work on the right team/situation (not the knicks)

he clearly has a role in the NBA, on a good team it would be as sixth man

ainge going to try to pump n dump him

i refuse to believe the cavs without lebron will ever be actually threatening but congrats to them, this is a fun outcome. they may have the least line up flexibility of any team in the NBA. they only have point guards, centers, and caris levert

hes got 6moy potential for sure

cavs have plenty of time to fill in their roster gaps, bunch of teams in their primes ahead of them now anyway

they need okoro to be a rotation level player

also mobely at the 4 and mitchell at 2 is fine really

yeah this years goal is not be in the play in i would think

also mobely at the 4 and mitchell at 2 is fine really

garland is a great shooter tho so i bet he'll end up off ball more. not having any shooting at the 4/5 positions is not modern ball.

mobely could develop as a shooter hes showed some touch

non zero chance he turns into an mvp level player, felt like he was just casually doing things no one knew he could do last year
