By You got 14 bricks right there? Go To PostGM built a flawed team and the coach is the fall guy.
A flawed team that won 48 games with all 3 of its best players missing 25+ games.
Windhorst reporting that the relationship w/Donovan wasn't good... combined with reports that Garland wants out if Donovan re-signs, not a great look overall.
By jjasper Go To PostSounds like all this is just Cleveland giving Mitchell whatever he wants to stay then.
Ben Simmons' expiring for Garland straight up, who says no?
By DY_nasty Go To Postgarland is crazySupposedly the Pels want him but only if they can get a high quality big first because they are worried about being tiny. The “core” they are trying to build around is Zion, Herb, and Trey. Everyone else is on the table for reasonable prices.
Good to see
Don’t see why people care so much about a persons gender and or sexuality
Let people live how they want

From the most recent ESPN+ article (which also has lots of Reed Sheppard propaganda, but I'm sure you're sick to death of it already):
Castle measured out better than expected in Chicago at a hair under 6-7 in shoes, and shot surprisingly well in drills, hitting 18-for-25 3-pointers in the star shooting drill, tied for third best at the combine. NBA teams were hoping to see him replicate that performance at his pro day, but he elected to sit it out. After playing mostly as a complementary wing option for national champions UConn, Castle has told teams in private interviews he views himself as a point guard in the NBA.Rarely seen someone go out of their way to try to tank their draft stock like this.
He also appears to be avoiding private workouts with teams that already have starting point guards in place, a strategy that might not be as effective as in the past since every team in the top-15 has his medicals because of rule changes implemented this year. – Givony

Spurs fans want him, and Pop always down to take an athlete that can't shoot.

By You got 14 bricks right there? Go To PostSan AntonioIt would be very funny if it turned out he actually doesn't want to play point and this was just a strategy to make it more likely he's available at #8.
By reilo Go To PostOh I definitely wish that happened more with Mitch lmao
By Sharp Go To PostRarely seen someone go out of their way to try to tank their draft stock like this.Castle could probably come in and be the back up PG on the grizzlies and get minutes this year on a decent team.
By jjasper Go To PostCastle could probably come in and be the back up PG on the grizzlies and get minutes this year on a decent team.TBH, I find it a bit hard to imagine you all drafting him. He doesn't fit the profile your FO usually likes at all, though I guess the Grizzlies rarely pick in the lottery so maybe it's different for high picks.
By domino Go To Postwe’re gonna have the best playsHe gonna get X's and O's right when he's officially coaching or no? Just glad he'll be off TV. He's not good on the broadcast.
brilliant plays

By You got 14 bricks right there? Go To PostThere's less than a 0 percent chance that kid is actually 12.Someone found a profile on another site (from last year) that said he was 16 (which would make him 17 now). He apparently has no birth certificate. He's also ten inches taller than Wemby was at 13. So uh, I guess we can't say for sure but...

If it wasn’t the Knicks no one would care. What’s he really gonna say that isn’t bullshit or standard PR speak?

I've been around a lot of tall 12-13 year old basketball players and not a single one of them can move even close to that, and they're only topping out at 6'3".
Wemby at 15 didn't even move as well as that kid.
By Dark PhaZe Go To PostI aint seeing no big men Americans with that build on the come up.Just the NBA version of planet theory. There are only so many guys with that build in the world, and the US only has about 4% of the world's population. People have gotten really good at identifying them young no matter where they are and sending them to these basketball training programs.
What is happening to our DNA?

We're losing recipes.
Jokes aside, there's still tall kids here but the development pipeline just sucks compared to Europe and how kids are used in AAU basketball is a huge problem for bigs.
This kid is 14
He doesn't move anywhere near as well as that "12" year old.

I'm gonna need birth certs, mri and x-rays if a 6'10" Giannis built 12 year old shows up at any of my nephews games.
By Dark PhaZe Go To PostI aint seeing no big men Americans with that build on the come up.I’ve posted a link to an article that kind of touched on this. In America, the absolute goal of the coaches is to win at whatever level the coach is coaching at. Internationally, there are club teams where the goal is to develop the players to contribute for the top team.
What is happening to our DNA?
It leads to a lot of shortcuts where tall athletic kids in the USA are almost pigeonholed into being rim running and defensive specialists because it is the easiest way for them to dominate a game consistently so that their team wins. It takes too long to develop a kid to be an effective, versatile player when your goal is to win now.

By domino Go To Post😂12? 😂
Let the tanking begin
By blackace Go To Post😂12? 😂
He did this today
😂 Wemby was playing on lowered rims at 11 and doing little rim grazer dunks. The audacity to say this kid is 12 is crazy
Nah no way this is what 22 year old Giannis looked like lol
Even Giannis nor Lebron were like this at 18 much less 12
