I really don't like y'all putting the blame on Russ when Murray's game has fallen off a cliff and Porter still just floats. If those guys actually maintained their level of play from two years back, Russ could just be Russ.

Russ is who he is at this point.. he's an easy target because he's loud and brash and yes, his play has diminished. The coaches and GMs who brought him in expecting something different are as much to blame.

I don’t think anyone is blaming Russ for the Nuggets not looking good; just saying he’s not helping, as was predicted when the Nuggets signed him.

I find it hilarious that the warriors didn’t trade Podz for Lauri. Combine Lauri with Steph and you have a top 4 seed in the west easy.

I used to dismiss concerns like this...
But I can see a world where the Celtics win again in dominating fashion,
And the rest of the league goes all in on Mazulla Ball and everyone is shooting 60 3s a game.

Russ shot 2-10 which is classic Russ. Aging and still not being able to shoot is nasty work.

Something about Ant/Randle just seems like they'll mesh well. On some Gary payton/Shawn kemp vibes

Who says that deal was ever on the table lol. Gonna take more than Podz and a couple first for Lauri I think.
Jokic had a triple double last night, not his problem. Volume scorers are all over the place, give him a half decent one and this team is flying.

I think taking away the three-pointer would be fascinating. I don't believe the need for spacing would diminish too much but it would lead to actual coaching and teams having different styles of play again instead of super-optimized offense where everyone runs the same sets.

Wonder if there's ever a situation that the league puts a cap on threes per game.

That feels a little video game-y, but I know for sure I don't want basketball to become a 3 point slot machine.

Capping 3's is crazy.
Lets add a 4 point line.

Ainge wanted Podz and the warriors wouldn’t budge
Maybe Lauri never really wanted to leave Utah in the first place, but Golden State never made a credible offer.

There’s NOTHING wrong with the three point line or shooting in the NBA.
IT’S THE GUYS WHO CAN’T SHOOT, WHO SHOULDN’T BE SHOOTING 3s
Guys like Russell Westbrook should not be attempting 6 3s a game.
Guys who average below .320 career 3pt shooting percentage, should not be attempting them at such a high clip
I talk about Ben Simmon’s but, I respect the fact that he knows, that isn’t his shot. I’ll give him that respect

I don't think you can compare the pitch clock to the shots that players are taking.
