[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Jalen Green has insane natural talent but he needs to go to “Spot School”

 

[Trojan 24]

[In The Zone '98]

This shyt is uninspiring

[HandyWithTheSteel]

Houston's backcourt is building projects for Vegas tonight.

NBA Cup is a shyt idea, but if you keep it just let the highest seeded teams play the games at home. That's a real incentive, extra homes games

This shyt is uninspiring

Bucks/Hawks was great but the Vegas crowd ain't no real hoops fans

Gotta put these where they appreciate the sport and are starving for live sports (Seattle) and price so regular folks can come enjoy it too

Nah, he'd help a ton when SGA is on the bench and take pressure off JDub. His usage rate is under 22% this season.

He already worked on a team with Embiid, Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris.

I mean, any sort of player would help when Shai is on the bench.

It doesn't take away from the fact that at this stage in Jimmy's career, with his style of play, along with his contract, it'd be a surplus to what they already have. If his greatest value is what he provides when Shai is off the floor, what value is that really?

Someone like Cam Johnson would be a lot better. It'd give them greater spacing, 3-pt production, fits more with their window, wouldn't get up all in the videos of the offense, all on a more team-friendly contract.

If you made the 2000 guys metrosexuals and told them they can't attack the rim then yes

I like Cam, but OKC needs another facilitator and that isn't Cam. OKC can take on Jimmy's contract, even if he opts in next year because Jalen and Chet will not be on their rookie extensions.

Obviously, Jimmy could play with SGA as well. They need to be thinking about winning four rounds and Jimmy helps with that.

It's like the Rockets infect every team they play against with their inept offense. It's a real chore watching their games.

So like Kobe?

 

[mozichrome]
