NBA Season 2015-2016

Davis with the clutch steal and dunk off the Lebron turnover!

[jpotter33]

Lebron clearly walked on that last basket....

[mr. dee]

Dumb move by Tyreke. Should have give the final possession to Davis.

[Rondo9]

J.R Smith has become a liability now.

You know who would fit OKC perfectly and instantly make them a step or two better than they currently are?

Avery Bradley

Now, realistically, what would you want from the Thunder for him? Can't include KD or Westbrook, or probably even Ibaka. They're lacking a future 1st or two I believe. Is there even a package from that team tofu even consider at this point?

Adams and Waiters for Bradley and Zeller? McGary, Singler and a pick for Bradley and Lee? Idk man. I used to be very interested in going after Adams but the way AB has been playing really makes me reconsider. They may not even have a package of guys they could offer for AB good enough to take considering our super-deep roster.

If rumors about the mutual interest between Waiters and the 76ers is true, then a three-way trade with us, OKC, and Philly would work out pretty well for all involved. Something basically like this:

http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=htm7dzr

Boston: Noel

Philly: Waiters, Huestis

OKC: Bradley

I'm not sure if any picks should be involved. If anything, it's probably OKC owing them a pick. Otherwise, I'd put like a top-3 protection on the Memphis pick and send it to Philly.

That's an idea I can get behind. Though I think it would certainly take Philly getting more than just Waiters and Huestis back in the deal. If we sent out Bradley and took on Noel, I'd at least wanna move a big in the deal and maybe some shooting back. Though I think OKC would be all about that trade, basically swapping Waiters for Bradley. Maybe they could send Singler our way, he's a good shooter ain't he? I think something like this makes some sense for everyone:

Boston: Noel, Covington

Philly: Waiters, McGary, Young, Singler, 2016 BOS 1st (Top-10 pro.)

OKC: Bradley, Zeller, Sampson

Id be happy with that. Would certainly push guys like Lee and Amir to smaller roles if they weren't moved too, but Noel is a defensive monster and combined with Smart, Thomas, Crowder, Sully, KO, etc and his age/hometown it makes too much sense. Imagine this teams defense with Noel on it. Makes me shiver.

Great night for the BKN pick. Pels win and the Nets lost.

Good trade for us and OKC.   Probably not for Philly.  Waiters will be an RFA so the Sixers can just get him in free agency.  OKC is going to be focused on re-signing Durant.  They have 67mil on the books without Durant so I don't think they'll even make Waiters a qualifying offer.  I don't know anything about Huestis but he's already 23 and hasn't played this season. 

Our Memphis pick is already protected so we're not getting it if it is top 3.  It doesn't become unprotected until 2021.  It also doesn't convey until 2 years after Denver gets a Memphis 1st which is heavily protected in 2016 (1-5 and 15-30).   So our Memphis pick will probably convey in 2019 (top 8 protected).

That's an even worse trade for Philly.  My Waiters RFA comments apply.  McGary is a 23 year old big who is in D-League and the Sixers have no use for him.  Young has shown little NBA ability and is in D-League.  The Sixers have no use for Singler and he has 3 more years at 5mil per on his contract.  With Noel and Covington, we're practically guaranteed of a playoff spot so the pick would probably be around 20.   The Sixers could get a lot better deal for Noel and Covington.

I don't understand Steph Curry. How is this possible?

[LarBrd33]

What we are witnessing out of Steph Curry over this stretch the most incredible individual basketball played since Michael Jordan.   It's unbelievable. 

[Vox_Populi]

Looks like it'll be up to the Celtics to stop the Warriors.

[Rondo9]

Looks like it'll be up to the Celtics to stop the Warriors.

You mean the Nets. 

[LarBrd33]

Looks like it'll be up to the Celtics to stop the Warriors.

If Steph Curry keeps playing like this... they'll go 82-0.  Lol.  They are unbeatable right now.   He's a real-life character from NBA 2K.  Lowry just had the best game of his career... 41 points on 14-26 shooting...   Steph gets 44 points on 14-24 shooting.  Anytime the Raptors threatened to win, Curry just nailed something.

[MBunge]

We can all probably thank Dellevadova for this.  I don't think any player since Jordan has ever won a title and come back with this much of a drive to still prove himself.

I guess we have as good as shot as most teams ......at least we play defense .

So while we may very well get beat ......

Maybe it will be a respectable game anyways.....
