Most of the national writers are under the impression that Nurkic is actually good which is loving shocking.

Stuff I've seen makes it seem like people think Plumlee/Nurkic isn't much more than a lateral move, especially since Plumlee will be gone in the offseason. The prize being a 3rd draft pick for basically free. The Cavs pick (oddly absent from 2k17) was received for taking/waiving Verajao. Still waiting for Lillard/Boogie trade.

I looked up Derrick Williams' Cleveland stats and was reminded of this quotequote:It was there, in Sacramento, where Williams had his own Karl moment, when, after going without a rebound in a game, Williams found himself compared by Karl to a vending machine.

I had a string of great games at one point in the season, and I started getting call-ups out of nowhere based on my success in Delaware. First I went to the Timberwolves, then to the Nuggets. Then, the Nets. Each time, the call up was for 10 days. You would not believe how many players would benefit from this attitude.

boxcarhobo posted:https://twitter.com/WindhorstESPN/status/831186530362335233 Charlotte will waive him and get money from Cleveland. Cleveland gets a smaller tax bill and a trade exemption. Charlotte basically rented Cleveland a roster spot for the time it takes to waive Birdman. WhyteRyce posted:I looked up Derrick Williams' Cleveland stats and was reminded of this quote He is really, really tentative in just about everything he does. He has some legit skills and could probably be a good rotation guy but I don't think anyone has any trust in him on the court. A Lebron team is actually probably a good place for him.

My favorite Dan D'Antoni rumor was that his middle name was Tony. Why does he go by Dan anyway? Google says his name is Lewis Joseph D'Antoni.

straight up brolic posted:http://thesportsquotient.com/nba/2017/2/13/mason-plumlee-is-the-swiss-army-knife-the-nuggets-need Very good article and I agree with your points. The C/C lineups with Denver look a lot better with Plumlee/Jokic than Nurkic/Jokic. Was Plumlee not projected as a pf? Maybe Nurkic will give the Nuggets the defensive center they thought they were getting before they realized Festus's bones were made of beautiful but brittle coral Dejan Bimble fucked around with this message at 21:07 on Feb 13, 2017 |

A lot of jobs have management that doesn't really know the quality of work that new hires are doing, they just don't know or can't know. So you just signal good worker until they're trying to assess the next guy and then you can go back to just doing good work without having to do all the extra signaling

Stein was also saying that Portland was "determined" to offload Ezeli which is... weird. If you're gonna use assets or picks to offload salary why not Turner or Crabbe. Ezeli's $7 million next year doesn't seem worth giving up anything to get rid of.

Crabbe has a no trade clause until July. Turner is injured and has maybe the worst contract in the NBA.

Ezeli's $7 million next year doesn't seem worth giving up anything to get rid of. It's actually $1m guaranteed next year. The only reason anyone can think of that Portland would want to offload Ezeli is to make another move this year.

gently caress it, just got my tax return....gimme the Dan. O Lord, Please do not trade Iman Shumpert, who finally learned how to shoot to match his defensive effort, for Jose Calderon. I have love for JC but, just nah. I wonder if Jusuf will find his own identity now that he's not vastly overshadowed by the superior Jokic. big boi posted:https://www.instagram.com/p/BQb_6scBmJp/ ~~above it all~~
