2022/23 NBA REGULAR SEASON THREAD "TANKING FOR WEMBANYAMA"

id get what i could for trae now personally im not a believer

there was an interview with huerter a while ago where he was hinting at something like that

backing up the truck for quin snyder and then not even seeing what he could do with trae would be an interesting series of decisions

unless snyder has already decided he doesnt like trae

personally i would want my highly-compensated coach to at least give it a season with my difficult superstar before making that call but i'm not the son of an nba owner

Yeah the only way I see this happening is if Quinn already decided they’d be better off without him

"his day-to-day habits on and off the court"

he's openly clashed w/ two straight coaches & is a ball hog who takes crazy shots while never playing defense. don't think it takes a ton of decoding to come to the conclusion that ppl there prob don't like him

brad beal and 3 firsts maybe

if i'm trading brad beal and 3 first for trae young tony ressler better be wiring me like $50 million to an untraceable offshore account on the side

he's also led the league in assist the last two years and has barely been injured

jordan very low on trae!

i also do not like trae but it doesnt matter what we think

brad beal is a negative contract tho

i’m taking my opinion of trae out of it & just looking at the situation rationally

heh

no but really if anyone can point out the team that’s gonna trade 3 first round picks for trae young i’m all ears

also analytics would tell you that trae young is a positive value contract but i’m not sure the results out in the real world exactly back that up

nets wizards lakers rockets all seem like reasonable trae targets those were just the first four i thought of

pelicans

the nets are a good one i should've had them in there. that would be a pretty ideal situation for him & if the hawks could pry DFS or cam johnson loose it could be a good one for them too

the rockets maybe out of pure desperation i could see it but trae young-josh green is a backcourt pairing directly from the mind of satan

*jalen green, the rockets are satanic like that tho

if this harden reunion doesn't come to fruition i could def see them doing something crazy/reckless

getting harden back would be even crazier

Trae in Houston is too good I need it

hmm klutch trae is klutch too were through the looking glass here people

Sources: Atlanta is promoting its G League College Park GM Tori Miller to a Vice President position with the Hawks; she becomes one of NBA's highest-ranking women in a front office. The agreement was completed by Klutch Sports, marking its first woman basketball executive deal.

bang up job on the background check by the league office

surprise surprise

Laker have D-lo coming off the books next year which should give them some salary cap

And the pick goes to . . . San Antonio. I was kinda hoping Detroit would get it.

check the off-season thread!
