NBA Season 2025-26

It doesn't seem to me that CLE is better for this.  They are saving money with Saric being peeled off and going to CHI.  SAC is pretty much cap neutral with this trade with being able to send out Saric.

I think this is a case of another team being fooled into thinking that Hunter can be an actual good player.  He was never quite that in ATL or CLE.

I look at last year?s No. 1 overall pick in Cooper Flagg,? Mashburn said. ?If I was to put him on that list [of 2026 draftees if Flagg hadn't reclassified] he would be sixth? Just from a skill set and also elevation, a level of where they can get to? I just think this freshman class and you contribute everybody from last year, those guys would still be at the top of the list. Cooper Flagg has some holes in his game.?

Hot take culture, presumably mixed with a healthy dose of racism.

The Atlanta Hawks are trading guard Vit Krejci to the Portland Trail Blazers for Duop Reath and two future second-round picks, sources told ESPN on Sunday.

I'm surprised that Atlanta wanted to trade him.  He's a productive player on a great contract.
