Had it ever started tho?

 

Kind of, I mean... that one year I think

 

uggggggggggggggggggh

 

seeing the bucks play the wizards on friday. so stoked to see giannis in person finally and make a last trip to BMO before the new stadium.

 

Bradley Beal has been a monster this season and I dont think anyone realizes it but hey "trade John wall" because the rest of their team is trash.

 

What's the price on Noel? Cho needs to be on the phone.

 

Honestly the best fit would be something like Noel/Thompson/pick for MKG. But Colangelo would probably accept Sessions/pick for Noel at this point

 

Would you take crabbe and a protected future 1st?

 

Honestly don't know much about Crabbe, how good is he on defense?

 

Hornets fans are jokingly saying Cho will dupe them with Marco's hot streak to get Noel.

 

Lol gotcha, that's not going to happen.

The ideal semi-realistic return is someone like Denzel Valentine or Patrick Beverley

 

I will say, I have a feeling the team is more willing to let go of MKG now than they ever have been.

 

I've always liked MKG. Reminds me of Iguodala - drafted high because of athleticism and defense, people think he's kind of a bust, but they both can play crucial roles on good teams

 

Not bad, he was much better the last two years though. Plus you have control of him for 4 more years so he cant leave Philly lol

 

He definitely is not a bust. Great defender and slasher to the basket but still hasn't developed a jump shot and won't create his own shot because of that. Cho likely still values him and he wouldn't let him go cheap. So a deal for Noel could make sense. But we'd also have to ship out one of Hibbert or Hawes.

 

I mean, controlling him through 4 years isn't a huge advantage when you have to pay him 18 million per lol

I'm sure he'd start in Philly and that could help, but I feel like the Sixers would rather get a cheap reclamation project like Ben McLemore or someone that can fill the role Jerryd Bayless was supposed to (off-ball guard that can shoot, which is exactly the kind of player you want with Simmons)

 

He wouldn't need to create his own shot with Simmons and Embiid so that sounds great haha. Like I said, I'd give up Noel+ for MKG - if that means taking Hawes or Hibbert back too, that's fine

 

Tonight's gonna be tough. Bucks killed us in the paint last time and we don't have Kev tonight and our depth took a hit with the Birdman injury.

Pumped to get my first real look at the Bucks this season, either way.

 

Pass lavert the damn ball

 

Fuck the Lakers man.

This Hornets game is abhorrent.

 

BATUUUUUMMMM

 

Melo is having a hell of a half, damn

 

Funny, both games Cavs have played at Milwaukee this season, they had a 14-point 1st quarter lead. We obviously know what happened the first time (ended up getting obliterated), this time they built the lead to 17 and still found themselves down in the 3rd quarter. I think we'll finish them off though tonight. Should be fun again tomorrow night.

 

Oh shit
