By Dark PhaZe Go To Posthonestlythey do, they're just a shit match for each other
a good chunk of the magic don't really fit in modern basketball as starters
:(
i cant think of too many rosters that are worse fits for everyone
other than phx of course
it stands to reason that the magic could make completely lateral trades for 'worse' players that better address the insane roster imbalance and would accordingly improve things. which is why im entertaining brandon knight since he's actually a threat on the ball versus payton who literally doesn't have to be guarded on a team already choked for spacing.

some team would happily overpay for either
Seriously need to find a way to get some shooting at the trade deadline. These 1/18 from three nights are killing us.
oladipo's a dumbass but he's trending positively after a terrible start to the season. dont see him being moved unless its in a blockbuster deal. harris is much more likely since he's got dem strong advanced stats that obfuscate the fact that he pretty much only scores in transition or simple cuts.
By PSYCH! Go To PostWestbrook is averaging 24-10-7.6About 2.5 steals per game too.
jesus.
i don't know how i feel about teague. seen a lot of him over the years and... he's like a more consistent chalmers. i mean, desperate teams like ny, utah, nola, or sac would love him. even dallas. but he's really the definition of a mid-tier pg in today's league.

What I hate about him is that he will sleep through a lot of the game. He would be a huge upgrade to Calderon who is washed though. Caldi is the definition of the mind is willing, but the body is weak.

I feel for teams who were or thought they were primed to contend right now and in the near future. Golden State is a monster. Everyone else just rebuild.

Teague is mad streaky from outside - and that's when he's even willing to shoot it at all. Bud's done a great job by having him imitate Parker to a degree.
Teague can't shoot lol. It's easy because he has pristine spacing in ATL. When push comes to shove, teams will sag off of him and dare him to beat them with his outside shot like Washington and Brroklyn did in the playoffs.
And he was garbage.

perfect time for the nuggets to firesale
kings definitely should too--front like cousins isn't going to force that rebuild once his contract is up anyway, might as well get it over with while its impossible to chip over GS

Dennis yanking his chain didn't help things either.

By Dark PhaZe Go To Postperfect time for the nuggets to firesaleMaking the playoffs and getting swept by GS is their chip.

By Dark PhaZe Go To Postperfect time for the nuggets to firesaleNuggets have been rebuilding for 2 years. They would only trade Gallo for something good. Denver is high on him and its not hard to understand why.

By Dark PhaZe Go To Postperfect time for the nuggets to firesaleThe only player moving is Hickson. Maybe Faried.
Gallo is going nowhere because I recognize the front office would want a high first round pick for him and I don't see any team giving it.
holding on to guys like gallo and faried is the sort of stuff that results in you drafting mudiay instead of porzingis
i'm not sure why they aren't looking to hit the absolute bottom

By DY_nasty Go To Posti don't get denver's love for gallo either
Chandler Parsons on a cheap contract like that is pretty good.
EDIT: Wait no, he signed an extension last year. Nvm. He's literally Chandler Parsons.
By diehard Go To PostWait, 29-22 gets you 3rd in the East? ughactually 4th
and the west still has a losing team in its top 8
By reilo Go To PostACL tear pretty much meant he's out until next season, no?i dont know what to believe anymore
paul george is playing when he would've been an amputee a few years ago
mkg should've been out for the year but he's back and immediately our best player (he still dies before the end of the season)
By DY_nasty Go To Posti dont know what to believe anymoreBroken bones unless it's in the foot are always something you can recover from, moreso than a ligament tear that needs a replacement sourced from your buttcheeks.

even though he's doing literally everything the stats said he would
its not like his d can be any worse
Miami is such a random collection of talent. Whiteside doesn't fit, Wade and Dragic don't compliment. Bosh is cool.
Whiteside probably gone, but does Miami bring Wade back despite Dragic or trade Dragic?

you bring back wade but not at 20 mil. He's good but he's at most $15 mill a year good, especially since he's done fuck all to improve his range at a time in his career where he is not as capable of driving to the basket as he used to be
heat so far has avoided giving him one of those Kobe kiss-of-death contracts and wade seems to want his money but not so much that he is willing to kill his team's chances at being decent

wade is kobe lite honestly
he gets his but he's an absolute anchor on their hopes of playing a modern brand of ball

By Dark PhaZe Go To Postbucks looking to move monroeI don't think he's their problem...he's not helping but idk. Parker losing his soul over the summer and MCW being death to all spacing attempts and their bench returning to earth has a lot to do with their problems. They overachieved last year w/ a lot of dudes having career years and then they got rid of their shooters and post defenders in hopes of MCW learning how to shoot and Parker being able to score at will..
even though he's doing literally everything the stats said he would
can't say I'm not a little smug about it considering how smug Bucks fans were last year on RealGM but yeah I think if they get a PG that has to be guarded it will open up a lot for them.
canaan for MCW
Their PG, PF, and SF are atrocious shooters or in the case of Parker have been blackmailed into not attempting them.
like...cmon, impossible to win in this league with that kind of shit unless you're absolute god tier defensively--and that'd only make you jazz good

The Spurs say guard Manu Ginobili is out at least a month after having surgery earlier today in San Antonio for a testicular injury.
By vic Go To PostYikes.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Postwade is kobe lite honestlyCompletely agree. He's pretty much stealthily been a kind of more efficient version of washed up Kobe but he'll be completely there soon if he doesn't change.
he gets his but he's an absolute anchor on their hopes of playing a modern brand of ball
it's frustrating cause this offense needs to revolve around dragic and Bosh and others more but nope
