Random NBA Observations 2016 - 2017

Talking a bout young bigs, I'll have to mention Biyombo in Orlando.

He's great for what he does, but he doesn't really fit with the Magic. Especially on Vogel insisting on playing Gordon at the 3 and both Vuc/BB for extended periods of time. They just signed him for a 72M/4years (same as Deng ) so I don't really see them moving him.

The Heat gotta be praying they can get Fultz in the draft.

Yup we pray everyday :Sadd1:

 

[NormanConnors]

fukk the Pistons

I'm a bit worried because breh hasn't been resigned set

 

[Cadillac]

Aaleeyah Petty came into his life

 

[Malta]

I love Gordan Haywards game

He'd be even better on a fast pace team. His rebounding and passing is underrated

Remember when people were calling the Hornets crazy for offering the contract they did and the Jazz for matching ? Hayward gonna get the brink trucks backed up to his home this summer.

Favors to the Blazers

the Blazers are kinda fukked bro

They locked up their cap thru like 2019 or 2020, and are about to be in the terrible position of having to overpay someone like Vonleh or Mason Plumlee

They should have made shyt happen before Dame and CJs contracts kicked in

You better hope they get bailed out with a trade

Johnathan Wall is so sensitive.

Why he always got to take the last possesion shot just because he feels like he got something to prove.

I know Bradley Beal handles are garbage but at least act like you would pass up the ball.

Too much hero ball from him too. 11 TOs

Demarcus Cousins in a Wizards uniform.

Did a quick search on StubHub, and it seems like NBA tix as a whole are cheap. Plenty of teams can be seen in person for under $60.

Crabbe and a first for Nerlens, can't think of a lot else out there that can get you a rim protector. There's pretty much no other rim protectors on the market, maybe John Henson but I can't think of much that you have to offer the Bucks.

Right and I can live with losing crabbe and 1st,

I'm starting think the only way to pull this off will be through a 3 team trade, because the Blazers will still have to shred a big between plumlee, Davis and vonleh...

It's obvious the team is going try to keep fetus despite being injury prone.

I definitely considered Henson or b wright, but I don't know if we anything to offer their squads..

 

[Captain Crunch]

Vonleh and Nerlens
That defensive potential

 

[Serious]

I'd take Crabbe over Clarkson, not that he's a better player, but just because he's shown he can play off the ball which is what they're going to need when the Aussie makes his debut. Plus, why would they help you improve your draft position with Noel

Crabbe's potential is a amazing. I really think he regresses being stuck behind dame and CJ; along with being switched between the 2/3. It doesn't help that he's competing for minutes with CJ,Turner,Aminu,harkless. I remember crabbe was a rookie, even with limited minutes he wouldn't miss 3's even when contested. And he's shown the ability the to have outstanding games, I really think he could start someone. Of course he'll be lackluster at first but duke will eventually get better over time....

 

[Serious]

I'm joking, but if we could flip Clarkson for a rim protector/rebounding big, I'd be in heaven

Seems strange they'd trade one of the best defensive young bigs for a an overpaid guard (who isn't al that at shooting) and a late lottery/1st round pick. But they may be losing Noel this offseason anyway

Houston the 4th seed. Only 3 games behind the Clippers/Spurs despite some fluke losses (OKC/LA)

The bench is maintaining/improving on leads, defense has picked up since Beverley's return, Gordon looks comfortable off the bench, Dekker looks amazing, Capela is lowkey a Top 10 center,

Y'all thought Morey was done. @Malta

Man they better not, thing Paul doesn't mind spending the extra dough to land a big free agent, but he expects results...
