    looking for a buyout or a reclamation (fultz, dsj, lonnie!) at guard with the open roster spot.

    but we're pretty well set otherwise.

    going to be bumpy changing on the fly, but tbh, we've shifted identities like twice already this year.

    Well..I'm sticking with, making the WCF after making a trade. I just didn't think, that it would be for Luka!

    If Luka is locked in and right by April, this might be a Chip team, we'll see.

    But extremely high B-Ball IQ of our Big 3 guys and their actual physical talents to execute what’s needed for winning basketball at its highest skill levels.

    I had another fun thought … how about Luca and AR sharing and working on their best moves together since they handle the ball in a very similar way a lot different of course than how LeBron handles it. All 3 have all manor of incredible passing techniques and types of passes mastered.

    I’d have to look it up, but I could swear it was a CAN of olives.

    as in whole can

    now, of course, I lean toward a Costco version of the can of olives. Maybe the restaurant bulk purchase size lol

    What a wild deadline week. That was exhilarating and exhausting.



    I don't know if we'll see anything like that again for awhile.

    Thoughts on today's moves:

    Hunter to Cavs: Great all in move for Cleveland. They have a great chance against Boston this year. What is Atlanta doing? They're 1-9 in their past 10, currently have a 14% chance of that pick going to SA being a top 4 and that's before today's buffoonery of making two deals that both make them a worse team. It's unlikely but if they gift SA a top 3 pick in this draft (those are 3 stars) to go next to Wemby and Fox, I'm going to go downtown and slap some front office folks.

    Bogdan to Clipps: Meh for Clipps, but Hawks got worse.

    Smart to DC: Talk about an epic fail for the Grizz, giving him away after giving up two firsts to get him. Why are the Flagg hunting Wizards bringing adults in the room now? Has Poole done *that* much damage? It's hard to set a culture when the goal is to lose and lose some more.

    Nurk for Martin: Sure. Martin's a decent get for Phoenix considering their limitations and that Nurk wasn't playing. Charlotte needed a tall human to play center.


    The deals that coulda been:

    Buyout stuff




    Buha also said in his pod today, we're looking for a 2-guard with some 3&d ability.

    My target is Richardson, even on a bad MIA season.

    Anyone else a little concerned that the Mark Williams trade still isn't official?
