They do need to bring back those patterns for the Spurs alternates. That interview was cool, Matt Bonner was exactly how I expected them to be.
Suns really have a 150 million dollar backcourt with both guys under 6'3. Jeff Sarver tripping.
I saw that out there, I feel like its gonna be hard, no team out there besides Indy off the top of my head would really be a suitable trade partner.Suns really have a 150 million dollar backcourt with both guys under 6'3. Jeff Sarver tripping.
One of them is getting traded, probably Bledsoe.
Roll your eyes like that buffoon of a GM isn't the reason the Nets have no future.Billy King is a moron
Having said that, 80% chance he trades Joe's expiring for someone with 4 years remaining.
Who are some bloated contracts that King can acquire?
Just let Joe roll off the books man. This is why the Nets suck,
Rck and Chester are legitimately lakers fans now
if the Grizz get Joe Johnson. At least they are trying to give Conley some help, but damn please stop going after old players.
I know the feeling. Read a report yesterday that the Clips are thinking about signing Caron Butler if the don't get Pierce. Caron Butler.
How the hell would Phoenix benefit from that?
It was all good just a year ago.
Sign and trading Jimmy Butler is looking like a viable option

Eric Bledsoe and Alex Len for Roy Hibbert. Everyone wins
How the hell would Phoenix benefit from that?
I still have faith in Roy HibbertI'm saying, Hibbert doesn't fit them at all.How the hell would Phoenix benefit from that?
You gonna trade Len, an athletic young rim protector who hasn't hit his prime for Hibbert and everybody wins?
And it's still a terrible trade

I say keep all three until you get a better idea of how Embiid's gonna fit because right now he's the odd man out. Noel/Okafor are your starters. They all still have to develop, a lot. Right now, it doesn't seem as though any combination of the three fundamentally "works". If you want Noel/Okafor you'd want Noel at the 5 to protect the rim because Okafor's defense just isn't there yet BUT Okafor's offensive game is best suited under the rim. And Noel at the 4 doesn't work because even though he can guard the 4, he can't step out and shoot yet. Embiid/Okafor seems more suitable because Embiid is more of a two way player than Okafor is so you can plug Embiid in at the 5 because honestly he can't play anywhere else. But the same problem with Okafor at the 4 persists. You want Okafor playing in the post offensively, but defensively it doesn't make sense if you have Noel and Embiid.Who do you guys think should be traded from the sixers bigs and what are our available options?
I'm lost.
Noel/Embiid makes the most sense because Embiid can defend the paint while Noel steps out. You still need Noel to develop more of an offensive game, but he can get there and be efficient. I REALLY want to keep Noel. You just don't see bigs that can run the floor and defend like he does. He's such an important piece to have and gives you so much defensively it's hard to give that instinct and talent up. Between Okafor and Embiid, I just don't know who I'd rather keep. Obviously Joel is more of a two way player than Okafor is, and I love both of their offensive games. I've been favoring Okafor because I know he'll start for me next season, but it's easy to forget just how good and talented Embiid is. These are two guys that have been compared to Tim Duncan and Hakeem. How do you decide?
It's a great problem to have. A lot depends on Embiid's health.
What? You're not a fan of pumpfakes and contested 18 footers?
roy hibbert is basically the exact opposite of what every team is looking for
bledsoe is a killer, hope he lands with a contender.
E.Bled is actually extremely regular with elite athleticism. Darker, shorter Shannon Brown.
