really relieved to find this thread here. i feel bad for russ as a declining star who's the last to realize it, but i was tired of watching it...
that was such a terrible signing. from day one. and it's really hampered miami from a team building perspective. with bam, butler, and their...
yeah, i probably proposed over 100 separate russ trades over the last year, and this is better than all of them. still can't believe we got the...
clips/boston would be worse, imo. i'll be shocked if cp makes it all the way through four rounds of playoff basketball, and i don't think the...
we'd have won the okc game--even with our terrible defense and their hot shooting--if we had beasley and dlo instead of schroder and bev. i'm...
dallas didn't have enough picks to make it possible. that was 4 1sts and a swap. alongside two quality starting nba wings. i actually think i...
a trade this good wasn't available until now, which is why i was always fine with waiting. had we moved 2 unprotected firsts and reaves for...
we didn't trade a future first with the plan being to let him walk in FA. he might, but that definitely is not the plan.
to me, the writing is on the wall that we're going to let bev and walker expire this summer, but maybe they'll surprise me today with something...

oh yeah, our offense just got better. i think he'll open the floor up for lebron and AD. honestly, we could start him, beasley, and reaves and...
as i mentioned last night, we have a real logjam at the sg spot now, imo. wonder if we're going to do something there....
i've watched him a bit. he's not a great defender, but he tries and is competitive. reasonably athletic. streaky shooter, but overall good....
obviously curious to see how he fits in his second go around. he's improved as a player since he left, but his primary warts (mostly a maddening...
yeah, we suddenly have options everywhere, too. it's worth noting that we actually didn't really take on any salary in any of the trades. it's...
purp's obviously overstating, but i'm not sure bridges and johnson are better than russell. depends on team need. the talent haul is...
wow, i had a lot of catching up to do. protected 1st is what i figured poeltl would go for. interesting that toronto wanted him back so badly....
gabriel and walker nets mason plumlee, salary-wise.
and even so, he's played well for us, imo, and is great injury insurance and an expiring contract this summer. i think folks are discounting that...
