I thought one of balls weaknesses was his defense...

He's an average defender but too slender
Will have to gain strength
His ball handling isn't great but he's got good vision

Ya do realize there are other teams in the league than the Pacers and Lakers, right? He's 100% gone from Indiana in the next year or two...it just would make zero sense for him to go to the second worst team in the league if he wants to leave a current playoff team because they aren't a championship contender. This isn't Melo "going back home" to play with a prime Amare that was an MVP candidate the first half of that year. Boston just seems like the perfect place for him to go.

No where near as good as Ricky either at the same age. Shocked teams are taking him #2.
Lakers are gonna try to emulate the Warriors style of offense and fail miserably. They actually remind me alot of the current Suns team.

No team is gonna trade for him
He's not committing to a long term deal with anyone
No team will trade for him as a 1 year rental
not even Boston
Plus white PG is a better fit there
And has a history with the head coach
I don't want the Lakers to trade for PG if it costs us 2-3 pieces

Btw, this is one of my favorite posts in NT history.

Dude was telling me for months that Brooklyn's pick that was owed to the Celtics wouldn't amount to anything decent, and got all excited when they started 4-5 this season.
"You'd think I'd get tired of being right all the time but tbh it never gets old" is just the icing on the cake.

I actually want Ball to succeed too cuz he seems like a humble kid. But ya'll keep overrating your players. It's not hate. From Randle to Russell to Ingram to now Ball.
Man what star player ever left a better team to go to a ****tier team just because he's "home."

Randle = Blake
Ingram = KD
Russell = Harden
Ball = Kidd
Now they're guaranteed to get Paul George. Man he has a much higher chance of going to the Clippers. They do this to themselves.

He was having the best year of his career before Melo got traded there and was 25-26 years old. Him and Melo turned out to just be a terrible fit next to each other and then the injuries started breaking him down after a couple years.

Not Melos fault Amare's knees blew up. That was a bad fit anyway with no point guard. Not surprising Melo's teams are best when he has a legitimate point guard (Billups, Kidd, hell even Lin)

***** said depressed. This just another day in the life. If the Knicks are bad we get to make fun of them. If the Knicks are good we get to be jerks. Either way NYers win.
