    Yeah if you got a chance for something like 70 points in a game you go for it always.

    The thing was it was a close game and he passed up decent looks to get his teammates open jumpers. Maybe he got tired but he was definitely not gunning away to close that game

    The Lakers were stupid to not draft Podziemski- he’s a solid player already.

    fine by me. we can revisit murray (and potentially bigger fish) in the summer. to me, the biggest need at the deadline is finding a backup pg. if we can get one with gabe or rui plus seconds, that would be my choice. i want to hold onto the firsts unless we're bringing in a star (murray qualifies here).

    Yeah. Smaller move for guys like Brogdon or Sexton is the way to go.

    Pod hasn’t dropped yet so can’t verify the exact comment. Buha has appeared with them before though.

    Reaves is not playing that well this season to justify being untouchable but his contract is still excellent value. I'd consider Gabe + Austin straight up for Murray without the pick. That trade probably makes us better.

    other than that I'd try a small deal with Chicago including the pick for Caruso and Drummond, not Lavine.

    AC and Drummond would fix a lot of short-term problems for us, not only POA defense but Alex is shooting an incredible 42% from 3pts this year.

    i don't see a way to get eagle from chicago for the same reason we're not interested in trading reaves. this is a player outperforming their contract who is an easy dude to get along with off the court for both teammates and management. you only move them for a huge jump up, imo. everyone's like "chicago sucks, get the draft capital!" no. odds are that player you draft won't be caruso, and he's a culture guy and a producer.

    i really like dejounte murray (more than many, i think), but not for reaves. and if i were atlanta, that's what i would want back, too. can't fault 'em. they can afford to hold onto murray until the summer (or after).

    REALLY want to see how much toronto wants for schroder in addition to gabe. does it have to be a first? will jhs and seconds work?

    Same for me. Would love to get the band back together with Schroder. Unfortunately I'm not seeing a way to bring the Eagle back home either. But Dennis, just maybe.

    Just getting Dennis would make us a real threat, I am sure of that.

    Draymond Green should have received an offensive foul for illegally screening Curry's 3-pointer in the 2nd overtime against the Lakers.

    The NBA provided a report on the match “Golden State” – “Lakers” (144:145 OT).

    The league said Draymond Green should have received an offensive foul for a screen set by Lakers wing Jarred Vanderbilt that allowed Curry to make an open 3-point shot with 5.2 seconds left in the second overtime.

    “Green steps toward Vanderbilt and makes contact that knocks Vanderbilt down on a screen,” the NBA
