Wizards won the lottery. So, AJ Dybansta to DC. Jazz got the 2nd pick, id imagine they go with Peterson.

AJ Dybantsa and Anthony Davis? Woah Wizards and their new lineup...

Trae Young
Kyshawn George
AJ Dybantsa
Anthony Davis
Alex Sarr

With some merchants they can pick up that could be a top 5 team in the East

Sixers are actually shooting pretty well at 53% overall and 30% from three? But New York are shooting 56% overall and 63% from three and so they?re leading by 29 with seven minutes ago in the third. I think this game is pretty much done.

Brunson has carved up Embiid in the PnR in this series.

Disappointing that Boston did such a bad job of exploiting Embiid's bad PnR defense in our series.

Knicks are 14?19 from three? Burying the Sixers in an avalanche of threes

On pace to take 58 3PA. Hmmm.  Amazing how the perception changes when they go in.  NYK getting hot at the right time.


The human brain is conditioned to remember negative experiences more so than positive ones? think of your drive to work. You can drive to work 99 times uneventfully but the one time you?re nearly in an accident or someone cuts you off you?re definitely gonna remember it.

Man Indy got screwed in the lottery. Their gamble didn?t pay off, but what a deal for LAC - getting a top 5 pick for Zubac!

And I remember someone saying, Indy did it right tanking this season and we should?ve done the same  :angel:

You?d rather have a first round playoff exit over Zubac?  ???

Mmm ... Zubac. He would fit this team so well.

G: Pritchard, (free agent - A Simons?)
G: D White
F: Jaylen, Hauser
F: Tatum
C: Zubac, Queta

And the kids = Baylor, Hugo, J Walsh. L Garza as 3rd string.

That Zubac / Queta center rotation for 48min a night would be fantastic. The inside muscle BOS needs to compete.

Probably had to give up A Simons in the Zubac trade. Imagine him back in FA as that 1st guard off the bench. That would be such a strong team.

I do not understand this. The point is that tanking did not benefit IND in any way. If they had a first round loss, they would still have Zubac and the pick. None of this has anything to do with the BOS season.

What did you want BOS to do, trade Brown for draft picks and lose as many games as possible?

Yup I don't think the Cavs stand a chance against the Knicks.

And certainly not Detroit either.

The problem of running so much playmaking from the forward spots.

PG: Chauncey Billups/Deron Williams
SG: Kobe Bryant/Eric Gordon
SF: Jimmy Butler/Danny Granger/Danilo Gallinari

If the Clippers were not going to get a good pick, they probably don?t make the deal. There?s a reason it was for this years pick and not next. This was obviously best case scenario for the Clippers, but they knew it would be a solid pick considering how bad Indy was when the trade was made.

Brad should have pulled a Danny Ainge. Get creative with it for one year. :laugh:

Wemby has to be thrown out for that. Thats a ridiculous hard elbow to the face of Reid.

I don't think the league will, but I do wonder if that could even cost Wemby Game 5. That was bad
