I still hate lavar ball I guess but mostly bc I don't like lonzos game much: a rich mans Evan turner. Doesn't do anything well just demands to stat whore and run the offense constantly

Lol

Going to be a long decade if you want to hate Ball. I'll give you the summer to work it out.

Embiid is awesome. I wish his skeleton wasn't made out of graham crackers.

Osis wasn't trying to hate, he's just used to Portland big men.

I like that deal, especially since Gobert cover his biggest weakness, the D, and allowing him to open the driving lane. He's a terrible 1v1 defender without any tools for it, but he isn't that guy that doesn't try and miss rotations.

He can bring some serious White Chocolate moments

zomg that would be so great.

The passes at 0:17 and 1:57 are the two best of all time.

media members votes have been disclosed

http://official.nba.com/2016-17-nba-...oting-results/

the guy who gave IT an all-defense vote was a random argentinian journalist

steve kyler is the only person that didn't give draymond a DPOY vote, his logic was Dray's groin kicking meant he didn't deserve one (his 3rd place vote went to Hassan, LOL!)

Richard Walker gets a standing ovation for his terrible all-defense lineup of
1st: Dray, KAT, Hassan, Wall, RWB
2nd: Giannis, Brow, Gobert, Batum, Lillard

love the hotsauce trickat 2.04

0.17 shows the sickness of his court vision, he barely turns his head in a tenth of second and see his teammate behind him

you guys are going to be really disappointed in Teodosic, he has some flashy looking passes but he also has a propensity to hero ball like you've never seen before

The Boston Celtics are pursuing an aggressive summer plan of sequencing the signing of free agent Gordon Hayward and relinquishing the assets needed to complete a trade for Paul George, league sources told The Vertical.

For salary-cap purposes, Boston wants a Hayward commitment before it can finalize a trade for George and secure the most dynamic free-agent coup in franchise history, league sources said.

For Boston, here’s the hitch: While Indiana believes Boston can offer the best possible package, the Pacers may be unwilling to wait until the start of July free agency on Boston’s timetable and could turn toward making a deal elsewhere for George, league sources told The Vertical.

Boston has maneuvering to do with its roster, including the shedding of salaries to create space to position itself for this scenario. Boston has contingencies in place to make deals and start a possible Hayward-George scenario toward fruition, league sources told The Vertical.

If Boston can’t acquire Hayward, Los Angeles Clippers forward Blake Griffin could be a substitute in this free-agency plan to sign a star and then trade for George, league sources told The Vertical.

Also the Celtics believe they can get PG13 to agree to an extension.

I have been following some euro ball and Teodosic would be barely an ok NBA player not a person deserving of such a contract. Defense is a thing especially on an NBA level and he can't beat anyone off the dribble anymore unless Gobert will just use moving screens.

Rumor is the Lakers/Sac pick, 19 Memphis or Clip pick, Crowder, plus money filler .. probably Zeller and maybe Bradley. Not sure if it's contingent on PG extension

Crowder, bradley & lakers/sac pick seem like a snap call if you're Indy, two solid starts in their mid 20's & high pick either in 2018-19 + low 1st rnder in 2019. That's alot to give up for pg13 who may not re-sign though, with how shrewd Ainge has been i'm not sure that offer is on the table, where you get the rumors from?
