    Randle would've been an awkward fit with Zion, plus he's definitely going to make more than $9 million next year, so a smart move. Brooklyn would definitely be a good fit, depending on what else they do.

    Yea, idk how they play lonzo and jrue together. Probably trade jrue for 6 and take Hayes at 4 or 6. Have a ridiculous amount of cap space and sign more scorers.


    And boban.

    League pass on fleek

    I think Lonzo/Jrue would be fine. The shooting would be a problem but the defense would be nice

    Maybe they let jrue mentor lonzo for a few months and wait until the trade deadline

    Toronto is in pandemonium and the parade is already like an hour behind schedule because there are so many people in the way the floats can't even get out of the "X" (not sure what that is, i've never been in Toronto). amazing videos on Twitter.

    lol good for them. Parades are a lot of fun. One big fucking party. I went to the Sox 2013 one, and i was stationed directly over the marathon finish line. When they put the trophy down on the line it was pandemonium. It was a cool moment.

    Cavs parade was delayed for hours due to them not being able to clear a pathway for the parade. I stood in the same spot for probably 7-8 hours waiting.

    Jrue is more of a 2 so most likely it will be Lonzo and Jrue starting together

  14. It definitely makes a ton of sense to take tweets by Bill Simmons, GM and President of Basketball Operations for the Boston Celtics, and say that they are indicative of the Celtics' organizational philosophy

    They have the potential to be a formidable pairing on the defensive side, too. New Orleans probably won't make the playoffs this season, but I like what they're starting to build.
     
  16. It was like two weeks ago he was saying that Lakers package was like the 4th best one available. :crylaugh:

    Bill Simmons would have said it was the worst trade of all time no matter what happened since it was the Lakers. He also would've said it was stupid for them not to trade. This is Bill Simmons being Bill Simmons.

    I still enjoy his podcasts, but that's just a ridiculous take. AD is a top 5 player in the NBA.
     
  19. damn....good point

    serious question - what did you do for bathroom purposes? Toronto radio was just talking about it and hoping people were wearing diapers (like people legit do for New Year's Even in NYC) since you can't leave and come back (if you could even get out if you wanted).

  23. Rockets' Morey addresses Paul, Harden tension
    "We have two high-level competitors, Chris and James, who their only goal in life at this point is to win the title. They've accomplished everything else, they are both going to be first-ballot Hall of Famers. Two competitive superstars at that level, there's going to be times when they are extremely competitive, extremely focused on how do we get to that next level, and when we don't there's going to be frustration," Morey said. "I'm frustrated, our top players are frustrated, Mike D'Antoni is frustrated. We want to take the last step and be the champion and I think it's good that there is tension in the sense that we all want to win."
    :eyes:
     
  24. I read a post on a Bucks forum about trying to trade for Chris Paul and I would just want to die if that happened.
