Youd be drunk not to choose him 1
As high as JR Smith 5
Id let Luka bend me over a slushie machine 2
Did you ever watch Mark Eaton? 2
Dont judge a player just on stats. There is more to blocking shots than being tall. Knowing where to be on the court, timing when going for a block, not fouling... These are all skills you dont just acquire by being tall 1
I dont really know how to respond 1
Dikembe Mutombo my man 4
No 6
Thats fair 2
Hyland is his first name lmao 3
Thats a $25,000 fine 1
I actually like it OP assuming Philly could get a commitment from Durant. This props the Warriors window open with Simmons running point and surrounded by shooters, plus they might be able to keep Redick around. For Philly, their depth takes another hug 2
One is still broken 3
I hate you 3
Why would you say that 4
You gotta leave her man,you deserve to be treated better. 1
This more just sounds like youre a Steph fan that isnt pleased with the narrative that could be created by Steph not winning finals MVP 23
no its not 2
This only took me two hours of company time, its good. 10
Id like to read that. 1
What? Theyre all incredibly accurate and realistic. 1
Zach Lavine, I think I could fit his dong in my mouth a little easier while hes up there 13
PER is a flawed stat that should not be used 1
Oh well then nevermind the stat works fine 19
Can we not do this today 19
Travis Schlenk 3

Who was picked after Thabeet that year? 1
Sam Presti 2
At least he got great value back 3
Steve Mills 1
Elton Brand 1
John Hammond 1
Vlade Divac 1
At least he was able to get his prize free agent, Kosta Koufos 2
Scott Layden 1

Idk I think Sweaty Morpheus starts over Payton 1
Completely bald man. Just how I like it. 4
Lol Clippers dont want anything Houston could offer 21
Dont even need to include Rivers tbh 1
Marcus Camby is pretty old now tbh 1
Theyre good now wtf 29
Some say hes still having gay sex to this day 10
Lets just ignore the fact that hes a really, really good defender and is only 20 years old 3
Dunn is a significant upgrade defensively over any point guard we have and he is on a rookie contract still. -2
Is it no for the reasons I laid out above? Just curious why. 1
You dont have to be a dick I was just asking a question 1
It was James Posey 2
Soft yes. 7
No my man. Luka is the next Larry Bird/James Harden hybrid 7
97 Thats how many free throws he took in six games 7
Three of those last 4 games were decided by three points or less. When the other team shoots 52 more free throws than you it can add up Edit: Im not making that number up, they literally shot 52 more free throws than us per basketballreference 3
Is it a porn 1
Off to a great start here 1
I agree 2
I agree 2
Dont think its enough. If we had a first to throw in maybe but we cant really do anything until this Atlanta pick conveys 1
I want so badly for Melo to be relevant in this years playoffs 5
*Jason Bateman 3
Pretty sure Ramon Sessions is a free agent still 15
If Knicks get AD then they win more games this year and that pick becomes worse Edit: If they trade for AD midseason 6
East schedule vs West schedule 3
Which is solid! But not nearly as valuable as a top-3 pick would be to New Orleans 3
Not in front of the trade machine, but Knox/Mitch Robinson/Trier/1st plus some cap filler might be interesting to New Orleans Then you roll out AD, Kristaps, and hopefully free agent superstar x (Kevin Durant ) and someones really cooking pasta then 1
Probably not but lets let this guy have this today 2
Dont think its worth it. Denver is so balanced right now. And so young. Just build. 8
Wizards say no but this isnt as outlandish as some people are going to make it out to be 26
I mean, in this scenario, Wiz are probably shopping the shit out of Wall also. I just think Beal is worth more than Ingram/Ball 5
No one is entirely untradeable though. Its a bitch of a contract to move but someone will take him on if he can prove hes healthy 1
Its Sam fucking Presti Anything is possible 9
Lol as a fan id be salty too I think its fair. But maybe tweeting it isnt a bright idea 2
Nah its the R.L. Stein rule 5
Not inevitable at all, Pels could simply hate the Lakers and refuse to trade with them 1
No loves contract is arguably even worse 0
I mean, its Conley, Green, and DeAndre. Gets them in the playoffs this year and Conley is locked in with Griffin. And you guys get off Reggie Jacksons god-awful contract. 0
At least I know neither he or I will defend our holes 4
Yes. Source: I am Mike Conley 19
Because my team doesnt want to acquire Harrison Barnes that dude is shit Source: I am Mike Conley 2
Eat my ass bro 2
Jerry West could convince me to eat my own shit 21
- Fans: Pelicans - Stadium: Sonics - Food: Indiana - Weather: Minnesota - Activities: Minnesota - Front Office: Washington - Thots: Minnesota 8
Horrible for Phoenix 2
Im stunned it hasnt already happened 1
Seems like an overpay to give a first for Vonleh. Two seconds seem much more likely 3
Fucking deal 1
Beal > Butler and also Beal is under contract longer 0
Lol everyone realizes this 13
Never count out Presti... But this seems like a reach 9
Megathread for AD who says no? 20
Lol right I barely have 25$ 4
Alohalhololololololhollaa 3
Its LeBron fucking James dude 7
If this is true Ill give you Silver 3
And thank God he isnt. 10
Not particularly. Find young pieces that fit around Doncic. Im ecstatic, actually. 39
/thread 2
Lets chill for a sec 0
Luka, big big fan! What has been the most difficult part of your transition from living overseas to being in America full-time? 1
Danny Ainge is nice but does he have a whiteboard? 1
Ill gladly beta that shit! 2
I want to get comfortable with his butt 1
Yes they could trade Ayton or Booker for any pick besides #1. I think a team would take Zion over either of them though 2
Lol no 3
Her second choice was Frank Ntilikina and her last choice was Kevin Knox 1
Ill have sex with u bro 7
In a fucking heartbeat 20
> Ron Artest All the kids having flashbacks to the Malice at the Palace 11
Yeah I posted it yesterday and it was up for a bit but a mod removed it. Not sure why but I put some effort into it so thought Id try one more time before calling it quits 1
My off-season started after the trade deadline 14
Steve Jobs killed it in the iSlam 5
Just look at Zion, hes built like the fucking Hulk 5
Simmons career field goal percentage from 16ft-3pt line is 2.4% which means hes made at least a couple from farther than the dunk 1
> yoffs What the fuck 1
Imagine thinking you know more than Gregg Popovich 1
Michael Jeffrey Jordan 11
Remember the We Believe Warriors? Yeah, shit like that doesnt happen if we eliminate the first round. And thatd be a damn shame. 32
The point is the more playoff teams there are, the more fan bases get to participate. It drives interest. Because for the fan bases that do pull off upsets, its a memory that will last a long time. Whens the last time the top 4 seeds advanced in both conf 14
Dont do this to yourself 8
Yeah it changes their game plan from guarding the three pointer to sagging back behind the free throw line 3
Its getting deleted because its getting inflammatory 1
Ah fuck man 1
No, because its not going to do anything for me. Just like the last two minute reports, all Im getting out of it is "we fucked up this, this, and this" but nothing is done about it 1
Skip Bayless doesnt know shit about shit 19
Unbiased but #1 and its not close 3
That is the hottest take to ever exist 6
Kelvin Benjamins head just shot up 3
Oh dearest Anfernee And Meyers And former first round pick Qyntel Woods Take us to thy land of gold Deliver us from evil And shine brightly on the faces of those who blaze trails For we believe in good In purity In the wholesome spirit of Dr. Jack 1
Thanks! I live in San Jose and dont want to relocate so I hope theyre okay with that. 55
Can you look over my resume and give me some tips? http://imgur.com/gallery/wInxJs1 6
Ok here ya go https://imgur.com/T0hoVjA 11
This aint the place for this, chief 1
This makes it sound like Kobe got a gig at Chinese Radio Shack 1
Fuck why do I sort by /new 8
This post gave me cancer 4
DJ Mbenga hands down 1
If you could guarantee me Id get Portland or Denver in the NBA finals, then Id love to watch Steph light shit up for a night 1
Lol I get being disappointed but they got #1 last year, and blew top 4 picks on Josh Jackson and Dragan Bender just before that 23
> Must have been off the court Good work Sherlock 8
I think its crack, PEDs, or little Debbie cakes 9
Giannis is awesome. He had a bad game. It happens. 7
I think the top three are Denver > Clippers > Raptors for me 3
If my girl and my giannis are both drowning and I could only save one️you can catch me eating a gyro at my girls funeral cause id rather freak the greek 6
Have you seen Windhorst? Hes close to everybody at any given time 8
I agree that I still rank Magic ahead of Curry but I dont understand your title at all 16
Mavericks 2
Of course. Some teams have to overpay to get the players they want. You really think Nicolas Batum has ever played like a max guy? 5
Hes making 25 and 27 million the next two seasons lol thats close enough for me 3
Uncle send this kid to his room 9
I can enjoy Kawhi while still missing watching LeBron in the playoffs. Kawhi has been a destroyer of worlds and Ive loved watching it. 4
These playoffs have been great! Definitely not saying I havent enjoyed them. Just also miss Playoff Bron, thats all 2
Kawhi Leonard vs ? 2
Eh Id rank Jeff Teague up there ahead of Gobert -1
Kinda hoping the Mavs nab him so he can help protect kristaps in the paint! 1
Not in your lifetime, bucko. *zing* 1
I love when people mention my dad 3
Tbf Jason Terry was a really good offensive player 3
Depends who joins him on the clippers 2
People can crap on us striking out on big FAs after our title, but I am perfectly happy and content with Donnie Nelson as our gm 1
Mods! 2
You obviously want us to say the Warriors things 5
Celtics trade for AD. Bring back Rondo. Hire Paul Pierce as coach. 17
You might be onto something. Seasons Paul Pierce pooped his pants: 1 title Seasons Paul Pierce didnt (possibly) poop his pants: 0 titles 6
I was talking about seasons Paul Pierce played with celtics 1
Daryl Morey to his wife: "hey baby wanna watch a scary movie?" Wife: "oh yes I love scary movies and having you hold me." Morey: *youtubes "andrew wiggins 2019 highlights"* 1
What are you even trying to say? 16
Or he wants his free $4 million? 26
DeMar DeRozan is literally Daryl Moreys boogeyman 53
Barcelona Jazz 2
Darius Garland bby and more cap space too 3
Ew thats a no if they arent freeing up more cap space too 5
Or they can just roll with Sabonis as their center moving forward and get more wing depth in free agency 2
Sabo is cheaper which is the only reason why theyre even considering this probably. Plug greater holes with more money elsewhere Edit: not saying thats the right move, but why else would they be looking at moving Myles -1
Saving one flat earth at a time 1
That was with a different regime and a completely different roster. Its not insane to think hed be down to go back to LA and play w/ LeBron + AD 12
Magic was the one who forced him out and publicly humiliated him 3
Harden might actually be closer than I once thought http://imgur.com/gallery/NEXXgYM 40
> All jokes aside, Oliver could ~~flat out~~ flatten a ball. 27
I thought I was allowed to shitpost now wtf 7
I see this discussed a lot. But the answer has pretty clearly been former forward Oliver Miller. Miller ballooned to nearly 380lbs later in his playing career, and was reported to have a 56B bra size. Darkhorse would have to be James Harde 1
According to his IG story, hes currently on a yacht or near a beach. 2
If my girl and Patrick McCaw were drowning and I could only save one , catch me at Threepeat Offenders funeral eating my girls ass 1
We arent signing Vucevic^(or) ^(Ill) ^(quit) ^(being) ^(a) ^(fan) 6
Peja 5
Hell be 24 before the season starts though 6
Thats a fair point too 1
Theyre already dead man 1
East is more top heavy, west is deeper 1
No 0
F5 season never stops bitch 2
Then go sign Magic or something 0
Watch it take Kawhi like three years to decide 1
Whenever I play 2k Kawhi fucks off to the Indiana Fever 1
Excuse me Ryan Hollins is the unquestioned dipshit 12
He has 34 boards through two games, next closest has 24 lmao 1
*Bye Felicio 1
Serge Ibaka has the biggest banana in the league 3
Steph Curry is mashing his balls to this 4
Because its an amazing fit Both shoot Both play defense Both create offense Both can defer 6
Theyre both way better shooters than Wade and LeBron, for instance, who had to do the my-turn-your-turn thing. Neither has a dominant personality. That Clippers offense runs a lot of pick and roll and both can operate out of that. Plus, having one spottin -3
Facts, theyre actually pretty solid and have good depth 6
The Vucevic, Westbrook, Galloway and Capela stats all were with the minutes cutoff, as well as the TS% leaderboard. 1
I suppose thats true. I just see stats thrown around on here all the time that are so obviously framed to fit a certain, narrow perspective. A lot of times without even knowing what the stat really is 1
Thats point, I can take any of these stats and use them out of context to perpetuate whatever narrative Im trying to run with. See it on Reddit all the time. 2
I made that joke post lmao 1
Never would have guessed Vince Carter was going to be the player to do this 24
Switch Culver with a lotto protected first and then maybe theres a deal there 3
To get a wing they really really need and a good big man 1
To the guy who made the fruit post... I blame you for this shit 2
Shed get her shit wrecked 2
I like Jeremy Lin a lot But fuck no 4
Shit take and backwards thinking. The fans were as much to blame as the players were. 5
My poppy leaving for cigarettes twelve years ago has left me skeptical of that seed ever moving up 3
Fair, considered including him in the title but felt dirty because *technically* I wouldnt be correct 2
I didnt count Yao because he was technically on a roster the season he missed due to injury, but I guess the way I phrased the title opened myself up to that. Didnt know about the military service for Arizin. West I just flat out missed :( 3
Cant tell if you realized midway through your comment or are trying to trash your own player 2
I like cum ~~jokes.~~ 1
This is more in the spirit of that "greatest power forward of all time" argument we get ourselves into frequently. Though I do agree, when ranking these guys itd be easier to just rank "bigs" 1
Sure. But if hes considered a center does that change the argument at all? Like is 30% of the time Tim Duncan played powerforward historically better than 70% of the time Kevin Garnett played powerforward (per bballref)? I also know this literally means 0
The Charlotte Hornets 5
Takes all of one shit break at work my man 10
LeBron James is Wayne Brady 5
Lmao I swear that wasnt me, Im being framed Edit: stop giving me silver lol 13
I think its more likely Jordan suits up for Charlotte and wins than Udonis Haslem winning 10
Trae Young 7
The 7-win Charlotte Bobcats had a better lineup than that 1
Holy shit nevermind lmao 5
Patricia Pills 1
Get you a custom Smarf jersey 1
Id rather have Anthony Davis unibrow run all the way into a chinstrap 0
One of those is not new to me 1
Is Sam Cassell listed here because hes ugly or 2
u/kevinoconnor 2
Yeah, its not like theyre Steve Blake or something 2
Jesus is your dad okay? 1
What a gigantic piece of shit 1
The camera adds ten pounds and Kyles ass couldnt take it 2
Justice League had a budget of $300million and didnt even make its money back 3
~~ClipShow~~ great clips 3
The Pelicans didnt exist in 2012-13 2
They all *techincally* fit the criteria lol 1
For a few games in Miami that first Heatles year 6
Mo Williams is the only one, and Ilgauskas made one of his all-star games before LeBron so I think he was established enough already. But yes, points are valid. 1
The US Virgin Islands are considered a United States territory (i.e. dont need a passport to get there) 3
All were born outside of the United States, I consider them international since they were born outside of a United States province 1
Who would you put him over? 1
He was born in Philly and never had to become a naturalized american 2
Except that they were born overseas. You can count them however you want but Im not wrong if I want to consider them international since they were born outside of the United States. -1
I dont think DeRozan has very much trade value as an expiring, and Aldridge has 3 years left at 90million and hes 34. If San Antonio wanted a hard reset and to lean into their youth movement, not sure how much more than two firsts and good young prospect -5
Im surprised at the responses here. If anything, I felt like this would be a harder sell for Blazers fans for this exact reason. Having Carroll come back in the trade would hopefully negate some if that is a versatile wing defender when Aldridge slides to 0
I dont think they will be either but the west is incredibly deep and injuries can happen -2
I keep repeating that I think the Spurs will make the playoffs but we cant see the future so this is a hypothetical if things get wonky and they arent where they want to be at the trade deadline. I think San Antonio is more likely to win 50 games than mis 1
Sleeping on Collins. Hes looked really good defensively and is really young. 1
I think the context is important, Bronny is a cost-controlled eight year lottery ticket essentially in the scenario I layed out. John Wall is terrific but we have no idea how he will come back from his Achilles and the additional cost-controlled years of -2
Some awful ones for sure - Moses Malone at 23 is disrespectful - Jerry West behind Dirk is wild and Id jump in front of a bus for Dirk - David Robinson at 11 is nutty - hell, even having Pau Gasol above Isiah Thomas blows my mind Classic bleacher re 1
Theyre both incredible. Im glad we have Luka and Hawks fan are glad they have Trae. Win-win. We can let it rest 2
Appreciate the Doncic love. 2
Agreed. 0
Thanks for the ptsd! 6
Im so curious how James Hardens career will be viewed when its all said and done. 0
I would agree with that. If he doesnt it seems like people will remember him as some super-charged Dominique. Even without a title he has to be a top-30 guy. 0
Id argue we have shit on Carmelo Anthony over his career way more than James Harden. Everybody knows hes an incredible scorer and everyone agrees hes an MVP candidate 1
Hes already one of the best defensive players in the league imo Hes just been a dud on offense. His spacing has helped Luka though. 2
Man I love KP Hes been such a professional too since hes gotten here 7
Nah Giannis being a fucking monster is what is hurting Lukas MVP chances 34
Giannis is running away with it, the only guy who is kinda close is Harden but I dont think he has a chance unless Giannis gets hurt 10
Russell Westbrook would lead the league in scoring 10

Says the guy behind the keyboard 9
You think you want this But you dont want this 23
Portland and the Lakers - Dame - CJ - LeBron - AD - Nurk 1
Do you not follow any NBA news or media outlets? Tons of NBA players have donated to both their communities and to team facility/staff who have been affected by this. Dont be ignorant 9
The entire Hornets team has donated Joel Embiid just donated tons of money Dwight Powell and Kristaps just donated The entire Hawks organization is donating meals Cmon man 4
Lol youre probably right, Im fascinated by how teams evaluate the decision. Like Boston has 23 jerseys retired and the Clippers have 0, even though theyve had some greats like Bob McAdoo and Chris Kaman play for them over the years 1
I debated that one. Do you think even if they dont win a ring and he plays there for four years that theyd retire it still? 2
Damn didnt even realize that. Quite the dilemma actually, id say its pretty likely they end up as two of the five best players in franchise history if they arent already there 2
Nice username, Tim Thomas is also my god 1
Ive met Zion Williamson once he is fat Edit: you were not wrong about his weight 0
Surprised no one took Vassell. This was neat, thanks for sharing! 2
Fuckin formatting 1
Totally fair. 1
A lot of those guys got better because the game changed around them. So you have to really ask yourself "how will the league look five years from now?" I imagine a league where everyone stops shooting threes because they move the line back to 42 feet. Ev 11
Its a small sample, sure. But I dont think we can just deduce that Jackson is an awful rebounder because he grabs less per game when hes sharing the floor with players consistently who grab more rebounds. The griz like the keep JV in drop coverage close 0
Ill take Jaren because I like his advantages offensively more than what Aytons rebounding advantage. Its also important to note that Ayton is usually the only big man on the floor, while Jackson spends most of his minutes playing with either Valanciunas 2
Unbiased Luka/Dirk bby 1
Id actually say its Josh 1
Thats basically what I assumed, thank you. 1
Luka and KP no doubt! 5
Partially. But I also think it makes them better! And I think hed likely re-sign there which is important. 2
I think we could flip it and have Dallas give their first this year and indiana sends a 2nd instead, thatd probably be more fair. 1
Do you think if Dallas gives up the first instead it makes Indy more likely to do it? 2
Edited to have Dallas send a first instead of Indiana. Thanks! 1
Fertitta playing 1D Candyland 3
Very fair and valid critiques, I think those make more sense Of course this will never ever ever happen but itd be fun to see 2
Ill never stop having fun with the trade machine! 3
1. Edwards 2. Wiseman 3. Ball 4. Patrick Williams 5. Okoro 2
Ill take 2018 - Trae - Luka - Shai - JJJ - Ayton 1
What fun is that? 5
Lol whats up your ass bro 9
What does it matter lol its internet karma 15
Ive got nothing but love for Lowry! Its a lot of point guards, I was bound to forget a couple. I think hes anywhere between tier 2-3 for me. Probably should have his own tbh. -2
Fixed sorry man. -1
Theyre not above him, theyre in the same tier 4
I think the only way the nba would have to allow this was if the injured player was on an expiring. The injured player gets traded and misses the year, then re-signs with his original team in free agency. But I had never thought of what you were say 1
Probably not. But anyone saying absolutely not has no idea, Luka is 21 and Giannis is 25 1
Hot take - Bender is gonna get some of that overseas seasoning then come back to the nba and be a productive vet in about five years 0
Hes athletic, and thats all. Has only regressed in new york 2
Fuck that dude 0
Ive never touched a top ten player but I bet Oubre has nice skin 1
Because Im not even sure there is a way around it. People are biased by nature. Unless you want to use robots to officiate games, there is always the risk of bias on any given play, intentional or not. 1
[serious] why wasnt allen iverson a teacher if his nickname was the answer 8
Not an argument Hed absolutely be the GOAT 37
Kd warriors still win 9
He will be going to chicago along with Eric Bledsoe. The pels will receive Otto Porter Jrs expiring along with additional assets 8
Baseball and basketball arent the same 21
There were 7 less teams during his run and some of the remaining 23 teams were expansion teams in 1980 so a lot of teams had a lot of talent back then. Philly had an all-time stacked roster too but only won once in the 80s 2
They still had a team with Malone, erving, cheeks, bobby jones, and Andrew Toney for many years. Thats an incredibly stacked team 1
Ive never been to new Mexico so no 9
Where are you from? 1
Not sure how hes doing over there but Ive thought Jessup could be a contributor since his junior year at BSU. Hes tall and a really good shooter from a variety of set ups (catch and shoot, off the dribble, off a pick). How he defends in the NBA will be wh 2
