Powell decided to be Steph Curry the last few games

 

[stickty111]

Umm not sure what that was in the last few minutes, but we win.

Nurse's love affair with McCaw needs to end.

 

[Cloned]

Has Powell turned into a legit #2 scoring option?

Seems like Masai’s teams always have these things come out of nowhere.

 

[trellaine201]

I was taking a quick look at Norms offence and he looks pretty good so far.

How has his defence been or how good or bad a defender?

It looks this might be his best year offensively.

He’s a back to back to back champion!

Soon to be

back to back to back to back champion....

In the closing moments of Kansas State vs. Kansas, the Jayhawks' Silvio De Sousa stares down the Wildcats' DaJuan Gordon after a block, and the two teams break out in a fight.

Do the Raps with all their players back have enough to make another deal for an elite player? What would it take to extract a player like Beal for Washington? Or Kevin Love from Cleveland? Or D. Russell from Golden State?

Do any of these players make the team better and what would we need to give up without hindering too much of our top 8 players on the roster.


Would a deal like this work for Beal:

1st Round Pick
OG
Hernandez
Davis

for

Beal


Unit 1

PG- Lowry
SG- Beal
SF- Hollis-Jefferson
C- Gasol
PF- Siakam

Unit 2

PG- McCaw
SG- FVV
SF- Powell
C - Ibaka
PF- Boucher

Not sure what OG provides on this team. Nothing on offense and his defence isn't anything special.

 

[stickty111]

OG shouldn't be allowed to touch the ball.

 

[stickty111]

Freddy is awesome.

 

[Cloned]

LOL

“That IS Star Trek”

 

[stickty111]

Raps win. They took the game in the 4th. Sixers are overrated

 

[A1LeafNation]

Boom

 

[Cloned]

Zion looks like he could be Lebron with better perimeter shooting, damn.

He said he wasn’t able to do any athletic movements during his rehab so he just spent the time practicing spot up jumpers lol. Practice makes perfect I guess.

His perimeter shooting isn't close to being at that level lol. Spurs were baiting him into shooting wide open 3s and he took full advantage.

I dunno, you spend a few months practicing that muscle memory and it probably improves your shooting at least a little bit. Besides, it gives other teams something to think about so they can’t just build the wall when he gets the ball.

OG will be dealt as part of a deal to bring in another piece for this playoff drive. Bank on it.

Outside of a December slump OG's a 40%+ shooter from the arc and he has roughly as many steals as he has turnovers. His value is obvious. An above average spot up shooter with the flexibility to guard multiple positions. Plus his splits suggest he's kind of a road warrior for the team.

Yeah, not sure why the hate on OG. Hes an above average defender, and for the most part a good shooter. Not sure what people are expecting from him.

Spicy P is a All-Star starter

Spicy P is a All-Star starter

Never seen someone improve as much as he did in 2 years, amazing development for someone who started to play basketball only 8 years ago.

 

[stickty111]

Congrats to Siakam.

31-14 after tonight's win in New York. Remarkable considering all of the injuries to key players throughout the season.

Nurse deserves a ton of credit for the way the team has competed. If we stay healthy, we can be a number 2 seed in the East.
