NBA talk 3

My preferred starting 5 for team USA:
Curry-Booker-Durant-LeBron-Embiid

Based on Kerr's 2017 Warriors..
Booker = Thompson shooting
LeBron = 10x better version of Green

Reason why Embiid starts because Davis And Adebayo played better together on the court (PF&C) and more minutes for these two than Joel..

2nd unit
Holiday-Edwards-Tatum-Davis-Adebayo
Edwards = like DWade in 2008 USA team (more minutes than Book)
Tatum = like Iguodala from 2017 Warriors
Holiday = defense and IQ are better than Haliburton

Miami at Boston (ring ceremony)
Dallas at Golden State

New Orleans at LA Clippers

Pacific vs Northwest i guess. Funny thing is you can replace Booker, Lebron & Kawhi with KD, AD & Harden and they are still the strongest. Southwest tho has a great future.

10 Jul 2024 08:28:26

1)Porzingis or Markkanen

08 Jul 2024 11:11:59
The strange one to me is OKC. #1 seed this past year and it looks like they'll be better. I can see them winning 60+.

08 Jul 2024 13:29:14
The Bucks, Nets and Orlando could go lower and the Pacers and cleveland can go higher in the East


OKC, Memphis And Minny can go higher and Sacramento, Phoenix and New Orleans can go lower.
I also think the Clippers can bounce back from the PG loss.

20 Jul 2024 13:17:59

Lakers and Warriors having a bad time in free agency..

They missed out some of the top free agent players.. both have problems in center spot..

04 Jul 2024 11:08:46
I'm not so sure the Warriors are doing so bad. Kyle Anderson and Melton are both good pick ups and they seem like they're still looking to trade. Warriors could make a bit of a comeback; young players improving and Wiggins can't play any worse.

05 Jul 2024 07:14:54
With the Buddy Hield's addition, they are still formidable.

05 Jul 2024 11:17:07
Hield got added, klay's replacement. good addition for the Warriors.

Lakers strikes out with Harden, Klay and JValnciunas. I think, they should focus first signing Valanciunas than chasing Klay.

02 Jul 2024 10:32:08
If Stephen Curry decides to be traded, what's his value? Let's go.

02 Jul 2024 13:00:04
Cleveland for Garland, Mobley & picks
Thunder centered around J-Dub, salary match & picks
Houston for Vanvleet, Sengun & picks
Orlando for Franz, Suggs & picks
Hornets for Lamelo & picks.

03 Jul 2024 18:10:40
They should trade him to the Heat:

Miami: S Curry
GS: Herro+Rozier+ 1rnd pick Miami 2030.

04 Jul 2024 11:06:40
No on the Miami package. Not many teams will want to pay Herro or Rozier what they're making.

30 Jun 2024 02:20:25
2024 top free agent:
1. LeBron James
2. Paul George
3. Tyrese Maxey

8. Tobias Harris
9. Jonas Valanciunas

01 Jul 2024 00:44:45
Lebron - lakers

Maxey - Sixers
Harden - clippers
Derozan - clippers
Klay - lakers
Anunoby - knicks
Harris - mavericks

Hield - nuggets

26 Jun 2024 04:46:47
If the knicks resign anunoby what would their starting unit looks like

Brunson
Bridges
Anunoby
Randle
Robinson

Or will they go small and start Hart and play Randle at C?

Or will they trade Randle and start Anunoby at 4?

This is interesting

26 Jun 2024 07:18:34
I like Bridges, but the Knicks just paid to much for Bridges.

19 Jun 2024 14:25:07
Pascal just got paid

22 Jun 2024 16:21:07
I love this for Indy.

22 Jun 2024 22:40:57
Really, really love to see it as a Raptors and Pascal fan.
