euroleague isn't even NCAA good these days tbh
Wolves are looking to trade Tyus Jones (lol) and are probably going to just cut Adreian Payne. Praise Thibs.
By DY_nasty Go To Postlooking back, tyus was a fool to leave duke earlyHis draft stock would've never been higher, really. Not after his Final Four. And he'll bank like $2M from being a first round pick.
But he's just not an NBA player and probably got bad advice. Athletically, he can't keep up, and he doesn't do anything all that well. I guess he generally takes care of the ball?
It's great that Thibs only needed to watch his tape from last year and then see him in person for a couple weeks to figure it out, at least.

By DY_nasty Go To Posthe stays with duke two more years and he'd have that auto-top 10 + "he just needs the right situation" 2nd contract that goes along with having several national titlesI don't know. The further he got away from his high school hype (can you believe he was ranked as high as the #4 recruit?) and the more tape scouts would've gotten on him, I think that hurts him. Eventually people see that he's like not nearly quick enough to keep up with even NBA backups.
dude probably ends up in sacramento with years of notmyfault stats
At least he got three years of guaranteed checks, though.
knowing lma's ho-tendencies he's probably butthurt for attention
hope he ends up in phoenix. he and brandon knight deserve each other

By DY_nasty Go To Postits crazy what trey burke does to people
i'd let the entire locker room melt down as long as I could say we added an all-star to John Wall goddammit
By knux-future Go To PostI'd take Tyus Jones in a heartbeat…do it Bryan
How about Trey Burke instead.
Formerly regarded as a #1 overall pick for about a week.

By reilo Go To PostLMA pls Timmy did not die for dis
Look at all that smoke.
For instance, sources were telling me the other day that LaMarcus Aldridge may not even finish the year with the Spurs. That experiment hasn't quite worked out the way they hoped.Y'all blamed Damian though. I got a fresh serving of crow.
By reilo Go To PostY'all blamed Damian though. I got a fresh serving of crow.Well it was Damians fault. Cause he didn't blow LMA in the showers.
No one blamed Damian
By giririsss Go To PostNo one blamed Damian
We trolled Damian for his all-star break tears but I don't remember that being something that would have pushed LMA out of town
By Tea Go To PostThat's bullshit, people we're talking about him being a diva post nba all-stars drama.He was.
Nobody blamed him for LMA leaving.
Not only did people on here blame him, but even columnists wrote articles speculating as such. So, FOH.
I don't think it was people blaming Damian as much as LMA and his crew being jealous that the Blazer org (and fans?) were giving Lillard as much or more attention and credit than him.
Naw there was definitely hearsay of Damian driving LMA out and being the guy that drove him out along with LMA being jealous of his success.
By Kibner Go To PostI don't think it was people blaming Damian as much as LMA and his crew being jealous that the Blazer org (and fans?) were giving Lillard as much or more attention and credit than him.
I don't remember it being a blame thing as much as denial jealousy had anything to do with his leaving.
It pains me to agree with Reilo here since he's such a hater lol

Melo listens to 3 Man Break :o
NEW YORK – Carmelo Anthony thinks the NBA should "rebrand" the D-League and invest more in "developing our own players" in the next collective bargaining agreement.
"If I had it my way, I'd rebrand the whole D-League," Anthony told ESPN. "I'd rebrand it so it's not seen as a punishment."
As vice president of the National Basketball Players Association, Anthony said he has been pushing for a major investment in and overhaul of the D-League to create more jobs for young players and strengthen the NBA's player development system.
ESPN's Ian Begley and Dave McMenamin reported Sunday that there is rising optimism on both sides that a new CBA can be agreed upon well in advance of the union's Dec. 15 opt-out deadline, and possibly as soon as the end of this month.
Anthony said a major issue he has been emphasizing in collective bargaining talks is increasing the number of "two-way contracts" that allow players to play for both D-League and NBA teams, thereby creating 44-60 more jobs. He said he also has been addressing increasing pay for D-League players to make it as lucrative to play domestically as abroad, and language that will encourage all 30 NBA teams to have a D-League affiliate.
The D-League will grow from 19 to 22 teams this year, but the players eventually would like to see all 30 teams with their own affiliate, Anthony said.
"I'm a big advocate of developing our own players. If you look at soccer, for example, a lot of those clubs have top-notch academies," said Anthony, who co-owns a professional team in Puerto Rico. "By me being in soccer now, I've started to understand the dynamics of developing your own players. We've got to keep our players here. We don't want them to have to go overseas."

I've been saying that shit for years. MLB has always been the model with a legit minor league system where kids get better and move up the ranks. NBA? lulz. Even now very few organizations use the D-League as a feeder to stash/develop talent.
By The Frankman Go To PostI've been saying that shit for years. MLB has always been the model with a legit minor league system where kids get better and move up the ranks. NBA? lulz.you and me both brother... NBA used to bank on having a free minor league with the NCAA...That's why when GMs started drafting 18 years they upped the age to 19...
Why would the heat trade for Gay while they're trying to develop Winslow this year? Even on a year rental, it doesn't make sense.
