    So, Zion definitely isn't too excited about the prospect of going to New Orleans, and AD still wants to be traded. Honestly, I can't think of too many people who would want to spend their workdays with a Zatarain's logo on their shirt.

    Hoping Portland was just tired which lead to that defense on the Warriors. Looked at least a step slow. Also they're going to have to find a consistent outside shot against Portland because I don't see Kanter playing a quality 25+ minutes against GSW's defense.

    Could be the fact that without Durant, GSW doesn't play iso ball and actually moves the ball on offense which plays to Steph and Klay's strengths off the ball and keeps Klay more in rhythm with the game. Ideally I want Portland to make it close but I think GSW in 4 or 5 unless Portland shows a different defense in game 2 and on and changes their rotations a little bit.

    Feel so bad for Dan Hughes, really hope he kicks this things ass and returns to coaching (if he wants to)

    Seems like morant really might fall to the Knicks because the grizz just really love Barrett? Who the hell is even the grizz gm now?


    Edit: some dude with no bio, forgot they don't have a coach either.

    I could see Grizz passing on Morant simply because they have Conley...however, that'd be really dumb because Conley will be 32 and isn't he injured a ton?

    isn't Morant injury prone too?

    Not that I've heard, but I don't follow college basketball all that closely. He played 32 and 33 games respectively in each of the past two seasons. So I don't even think he's really missed any games.

    How could we even call a 19 year old injury prone lol

    Harry Giles was, unfortunately. Hopefully he stays healthy now.

    Who's the best prospect: DeAndre Hunter, Culver, Reddish or Garland?

    Asking for a team that has the No. 5 pick.

    I think they'll take Morant, and then either trade Conley this summer or at the deadline next year after he's had time to mentor Morant a little bit.

    Ahhh....just read its because of his small frame. Like almost every rookie, he will take a big leap/increase his training and games played drastically within one year. Doing too much too fast increases injury probabilities. Same thing for runners who are trying to increase their weekly mileage and strength training too fast. Really, its a risk for anyone in any sport.

    He would still be a good swap for an aging and expensive Conley, who was also injured a bit.

    Conley for the suns #6 pick and a player or two would be a win/win for both teams imo

    Culver or Hunter. Reddish maybe, but Garland shouldn't even be considered since they already have a scoring PG with little defensive ability.

    It would be cool if the grizzlies somehow traded Conley into having Barrett and Garland or rather morant and reddish

    If they traded the suns for #6 I think it’s a good possibility reddish is there

    Morant/jaren/reddish would be a solid core moving forward
