Oh, DVDs got fired? I'd like to think we caused it.

 

He publicly said he wants to win and wants an extension they don't want to give him. That plan ensures he books a first class ticket out of there.



Related to the Kings drama

 

BEAM deactivated

 

If I were the Kings, I wouldn’t trade Sabonis. He’s basically an upper middle class version of Jokic.

 

Injuries are just brutal this season.
League of street clothes

 

Continuing injury news.
Morant suffered an apparent right shoulder injury after running into a Daniel Theis screen, and the doubtful tag suggests the issue might carry some complications for the star floor general.

Wembanyama (face) is on the floor for the start of the fourth quarter of Friday's game against the Nets, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
And of course both Green and Curry are suddenly injured vs Clippers

To Clippers for Kawhi

 

Hope not.

 

I think you've seen his upside. It' doesn't get any better from here IMHO. You hope to get 40 games a year, and pray he's available for the playoffs. Buyer beware on that one regardless. And if he has a thing for chasing women, maybe a big market with too many options isn't a great idea if he hasn't matured yet.

 

He has a certain type of women too

 

if the price on zion were truly low, i'd bite. huge swing, likely failure, but the upside is still something you can't get otherwise, and whatever we'd be giving couldn't be that great a loss in the end, tbh.

if anything can get zion to reach his potential, it would be a year sitting next to lebron, imo.

it's not happening, though.

Nurkic will serve a three-game suspension for his role in an on-court altercation during Friday's loss to the Mavericks.

The NBA announced Saturday that Marshall has been suspended for four games due to an on-court altercation with Jusuf Nurkic.


Washington has been issued a one-game suspension for his role in an on-court altercation during Friday's game against Phoenix.

 

feel like nurk deserved more than marshall did, though the word is marshall went after him in the hallway, i guess.

mavs probably going to lose a couple games because of this. marshall played really well in luka's last absence, and it's why they won some of those games.

 

Spurs are the team that should go for Zion IMO. Wouldn't even cost their full trove of picks.

 

30 in the NBA is seen as “past your prime,” so yeah, it’s considered “NBA old.”
I’m not interested in Grant because he’s overrated and doesn’t fit our timeline.

 

Then like 450 people should retire from NBA and go to play in Puerto Rico or Angola because they are "NBA old"
Btw.Lakers are considered old in media and among" talking heads" but in fact they are average age is only

• Los Angeles Lakers — 25.285

 

It’s not the “retiring age.”
It’s the age at which most GMs won’t trade valuable assets for.
I love what Jimmy Buckets brings, but there’s no way I would give up any of our youth, multiple firsts, and multiple seconds for him at this stage in his career.
