A fire sale is the logical step.

Unfortunately, the new owner Matt Ishbia will not do a fire sale. :francis:


The only players with any value are KD and Booker, nobody taking Beal at $53 million a year. Heat been dangling Duncan Robisnson and Tyler Herro for like 4 years and they dont even want Beal.

There’s no way the wolves talked to Ant before that dumb ass trade
Tim Connely is an interesting guy. For every two strokes of genius he's liable to shoot himself in the foot, but I'm curious if he's working with a vision and punted this season in the process. An insane follow-up to a historic season but that 2nd apron is something no owner is fw

Good look for the NBA that one of their Christmas games is happening 2 days before Christmas for some reason & it's a blowout :pachaha:
This XMas scheduling is a clownshow. Dredge up all the pseduo-rivalries you have available and at least TRY to make it compelling. Off the top of my head I would've done Knicks/Celtics, Bucks/Sixers, Thunder/Warriors, Mavs/Lakers, Wolves/Nuggets

the hornets are the first team to have a players only meeting this season :mjlol:

the fact they think they're good enough to have a players only meeting :mjlol:

Hornets should bring in D'Antoni as a consultant. I don't think he would want to coach full time. Surely he has to be bored with being a consultant for the Pelicans (although he may be getting paid well there and is like
:manny: ).

If Beal is by himself on the Suns after Booker and Durant get traded, he will waive that no trade clause to get out.

Everyone knew that KAT was odd man out and going to be traded. That shouldn’t have been a surprise to anyone or even Ant.

Their performance last season delayed the move, but it was always going to be the outcome.

Those reports were out there before last season even started. That trio was always going to get broken up for money reasons, but their success last season delayed it.

It was the worst kept secret in the league.
