I love trae young. Had terrible game yet won it in OT vs Bucks in end.

hawks may have just won that trade after all.   he is a winner period.
Bit early to call, but to say he's a winner because they beat the Bucks without Giannis, Middleton, Brogdon and Blesdoe by one point is a bit weird.

Plus, the Bucks played Tim Frazier 53 minutes.

I bet if Luka Donnic hit that game winner, you'll be calling him a winner. ;)
I'd probably be calling him a winner due to him winning the EuroLeague, EuroBasket and the Spanish Cup twice. Or the fact that his team has more wins in a harder conference. Or maybe the much more considerable amount of clutch moments he has this season compared to Young

Despite the fact that Young picked up his game lately. I know people love Luka here but COME ON give Young some credit. Seeesssssh

He certainly has, but I just can't foresee there being any way Atlanta wins the trade, barring the Dallas pick conveys and they pick some All-Star tier talent.

Kawhi and his wife had a son together in Toronto, so that means the boy is Canadian...

I mean I think it's like 75% chance he takes 190 million from Toronto at this point.

Kawhi's son being born in Canada isn't going to have any bearing on his decision.  What about his daughter, who is an American citizen?

So you mean... he's going to have to make a tough family decision too?

Danny should have offered Tatum and Brown and matched salaries got Kawhi and Kyrie together... two legit superstars who can take turns every game and when both are hot the Celtics would be dam near unbeatable. Had the Celtics not made the conference finals last year I think it would have happened but the media Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline.ed this team up big time pretty much penciling them in the finals

I wouldn't go that far, even though it might be a possibility.

'Nique's parents didn't stay in France cause he was born there.

I'd like him to stay or to go to LAC (my favorite rebuild in the NBA ATM).

Somewhere along the way I've come to really dislike Devin Booker.

When your team is this bad, I don't mind a little stat padding but the losses don't seem to be weighing on him at all. That's bothersome.

He will be missed.....

10 years too late. I can't believe he lasted so long while continually building such flawed teams.

Same here.... You would've thought giving Ian Mahimi that contract would've led to insta-fire.

His teams have been mostly mediocre to bad since Riley decided to go to the Heat in the mid 90's.  I think he had one good Knick team and one good Bucks team after Riley left New York. His teams in Washington have ranged from the dictionary definition of NBA Mediocrity Purgatory to awful.

He had the following coaches

Pat Riley
Jeff Van Gundy
George Karl
Flip Saunders

but not one title and only 2 Finals losses with Ewing as his star and Riley as his coach.

I have no idea how he has lasted this long.

Russell Westbrook with a 20 point 20 rebound and 21 assist triple double! Incredible!  :o
