By pilonv1 Go To PostEmbiid is foreverEmbiid is love, Embiid is life.
As connected as this dude is on social media, don't be stunned if he starts in the All Star Game.
dunno when he looked up those stats buy Dwight, Kristaps both have a better differential and Baynes has the best.
By pilonv1 Go To PostNets are atleast forcing contract prices up for all these "contenders".
That was predictable
Is that even a good deal for either team? Does Houston need him at that price? *checks roster*
EDIT: four-year, $37 million but he had a history of back issues and got protection in the contract. Seems fine.

By Omzz Go To PostIt was nice while it lasted Laker fans
It honestly was.
By livefromkyoto Go To PostSo, I knew DeRozan was a Kobe stan, but I didn't know he was the Kobe stan of Kobestanistan.
I also had no idea that Kobe Obi Wanned him like that. It almost makes me not dislike Kobe. Almost.
.
He should just cut out the middle man and stan MJ
By WWCHGT Go To PostHe's not wrong

Barnes is a douche, but the American Media are just as bad.

By Forever Go To PostSomeday one of these owners will be cheap enough to not match.D-mo was bizzare for you to go after though. Purely because why do you need an injury plagued guy. Another one.
Bigs with back issues rarely turn out well.

D mo was relatively healthy until his back thing. Great low post scorer and should flourish there without Dwight. Huge part of the year we got the second seed.
My only issue is this may impede Harrell's development who has looked great as of late.

By reilo Go To PostShockingly, the Spurs are 13th in DRtg this season. Spoiler: it's not shocking because they replaced Duncan with Gasol
I do not know basketball meta. What does this mean?
By Phoenix RISING Go To PostI do not know basketball meta. What does this mean?With Duncan, they were almost guaranteed to be a top 10 or top 5 defense, with the addition of Gasol and subtraction of Duncan, they've slipped.
The season is very young though and they can still get back to being an elite defense.
By Phoenix RISING Go To PostI do not know basketball meta. What does this mean?Defensive Rating (aka DRtg) is a measure of a team's overall defensive prowess relative to the league. Last season, the Spurs were 1st in DRtg at 99.0 points allowed per 100 possessions. Meaning, if every game was played to 100 possessions (some simple formula that calculates field goal attempts, turnovers, rebounds, freethrow attempts, etc), the Spurs would only give up 99 points. Pace is a measure of possessions per 48 minutes, and the average Pace this season is 96.5, up from 95.8 last season. The Spurs play at a very slow Pace of 93.1.
You replace Duncan with Pau Gasol but keep most of the core in tact and you get quite a worse defensive team -- while good, not historically good like they were a year ago.

Thanks.
IDK how 40 year-old Duncan was that good....

By Tea Go To PostWe got out own lesser bullets. Don't throw stones man.Ours have been *knock on wood* healthy over their careers. Parsons, has not, which begs the question why they went after him that aggressively.
By reilo Go To Postguy must give a fucking fantastic interview.
damn. Portland dodged thee bullet.
By blackace Go To PostSame skillset as LBJWho originally said this, I can't recall. Kills me every time.
The American media are not as bad as men that assault women.
I hate Chriss Cilllizza as much as the next guy, but he shouldn't be in prison whereas Barnes (if this story is true) should be in prison.

By Tea Go To PostWho originally said this, I can't recall. Kills me every time.Their new coach, former Heat assistant who was apart of the lBJ years, David Fizdale.
By Kibner Go To Postaye, likewise.
Who originally said this, I can't recall. Kills me every time.I want to say Grizz coach David Fizdale
By blackace Go To PostI want to say Grizz coach David FizdaleLol yeah I think you're right.
By reilo Go To PostOurs have been *knock on wood* healthy over their careers. Parsons, has not, which begs the question why they went after him that aggressively.Because Memphis just hasn't been a FA destination.
And they've been desperate for consistent shooting for a while. He would have been really great for them. If he could find his Rhythm again.
Though .. this also makes me wonder if the Grizz are just going to tank the season? If M.Gasol goes in for a mystery scan on his foot soon .....
ESPN says that Favors is back tonight, but our organization blows and refuses to give injury updates or timelines to our local media (and our local media doesn't dig) so I have no idea if this report is true or not.
Guess I and the Jazz reporters will find out in 3.5 hours. Exciting!

By kjack Go To PostI don't give a fuck how many games the Cavs lose, I just don't EVER want to lose to the Raptors.Why do you care? You lost the regular season 2-1 and they took 2 games in the ECF but y'all still won. What does it matter given the end result?
