I hate to give him credit, but Bill Simmons did the whole are we sure David Griffin is a good GM thing when he left Cleveland and he very well may have been right. This is the exact same mistake they made with their last generational talent.

yep. garland/jrue/ingram/zion/get anyone to play C
still got ball and maybe kuz off the bench?
that's a decent core.
"Literally anybody"? We have been told multiple times that Raptors fans only thought it was a stubbed toe, or perhaps a sudden fart.
The notion that everyone knew his injury was likely serious, while accurate, does not comport with this narrative.
Please be careful with your words in the future.
This was the bare minimum I expected them to have to give up tbh. I figured if they keep Hart and all their future picks then that's a huge win.
Try not to make a sweeping generalization about Raptors fans in the future, thanks. Go back to my post history.
Can't imagine many peeps gonna be rocking LA Ingram jerseys after he's traded. Thrift stores, eBay, garage sales, closets, are about to be bombarded with more sad jerseys.
They should be trading Jrue. His value will never be higher and he doesn't fit their timeline. Maybe this is an ownership directive(?) but if so that's not good.
Giving up that much is tough, but the thing to remember is AD is really fucking young for a guy as accomplished and established as he is. If you can get him to re-up, and he continues playing at this level, you are set up to rebuild around him post-LeBron when he'll only be 29 (whether the Lakers front office is competent though to that is another story). It's not like you'd be giving up the future for a short term bet. AD is the present and the future for whoever trades for him.

that would make sense, zion is the franchise at this point build around him with other guys within at least 5 years of him. but yeah, you're right, stuff like that is always coming from ownership.
Hart is a bum.
But Lakers would have max space still to use. I wouldn't want a max guy. I'd fill out the roster with non day one free agents. Dudes like Thad Young who can be had cheap the second week of July.
Just don't sign the damn meme team again.

He might just not like the players being discussed in this draft. I think it makes some sense to bring in some veterans, but I has to be the right one and I don't know who that is for the 4th pick.
Personally (and as reported), I think he's got his eyes on Tatum and other things from the Celtics. It's easily the most valuable piece that's been discussed. Celts have been really leak-proof about potential trade pieces here, which I find pretty interesting.
I now think this goes down before draft day whereas I didn't before.
probably just bullshit but it would be ironic if they didn't get AD because of melo lol
Warriors are gonna be back to the OG squad but with an even older Iggy and Livingston and the same depth troubles they're having right now. The next two games are their time to shine, because things look murky beyond that.
any trade they make for AD leaves them with nothing because they are a terrible team with like 2 decent assets
Why is why I said IF. If Klay leaves and KD resigns then they are screwed because they will be over the cap (they have $111M committed next season, salary cap will likely be between $103-109M) and can only fill out the roster with one MLE and vet minimums. Do you think a starting lineup of Steph, Iggy, Draymond, McKinnie and whoever are going to make the playoffs in the West?
You can say that but until he resigns it's a possibility.
I don't think you all are realizing how dire next season could be for the Warriors.
Melo's a chubby bricklaying ghost that continues to haunt me.
They said immediately after the game it was an Achilles. If you are talking about the first time then its no way he could've even played last game if it was originally his Achilles. Read his IG posts, he clearly wanted to play and no one could force him if he didn't feel ready.
I know it doesn't make any sense. When I got my PS1 when I was a kid, I started off on IX and VIII and somehow managed to skip VII. The earlier ones I just played either before or after those two games.
From what I read Barrett is really good and that it wouldn't be odd if he ends up better than Zion. I think Knicks with #3, Robinson and Knox is a good enough package. They'd trade away a good chunk of their future though, so they'd have to know they were getting other high profile free agents besides AD.
As did I, I've torn mine. But thats not really possible if he was able to run up and down a court a month later.
Knicks fans right now reading this like
There is also a possibility of Margot Robbie. But it's not happening unless we're one of the few people left on Earth. This is just a pointless what if scenario, that's the 1 FA this summer that's essentially a done deal.
Twisting my words.
My comment was regarding purchase of season tickets, especially to ur sworn rivalry.
the issue isn't comparing Melo to AD, it's giving up a lot of assets for someone who you can sign the next year, leaving you with a weak team.
Yeah but he likely teared it against Houston and playing a couple nights ago fully ruptured it.
#ArmchairMD
I know you might have thought this was clever but one thing is clearly not like the other lol
Until Klay resigns it can still happen even if it is unlikely.
I get that but they have to pray the Lakers or one of the other teams on his list don't get him
#staywoke
I'm willing to give Hart the benefit of the doubt. Playing hurt all last year and being the backup PF is lulz.
I agree about the max slot though. Get dudes like Seth Curry, Danny Green (if we can pry him from the Raptors), and guys like that. Shooting, shooting, shooting.
Fans who will click on made up rumours about their team.
Klay leaving is possible but very unlikely. Especially now that he can't get the supermax.
what difference does it make whether you go to 1 game or 20, that doesn't mean you're rooting for them...
