I keep forgetting how loving disgusting unfair Davis + Cousins is going to be next season wow

Barring Injuries ("Ha Ha Ha" the dark incarnation of Pierre Pelican laughs) Davis + Cousins + a dead dog is a 45 win team

Putting more faith into AD and DMC is a recipe for disappointment.

There's really no one they can acquire this offseason that is going to give them help them where they need it to get out of the East (i.e. someone who can slow down LeBron even a little bit).

If Boston were to acquire LBJ himself...

LBJ puts out that he wants a change of scenery, engineers a trade with the Celtics for the 2017 and 2018 picks plus several players and maybe more picks and then right before the beginning of the next season immediately retires.

He takes a year off doing god knows what then resigns with the Cavs for the 2018 season.

And now his revenge is complete.

Every time Zogo posts on of his all-time lists and Dirk is in the top 10, I remember that he was drafted out of the German Bundesliga as a teenager. The career he ended up having is simply amazing.

I like how the way not to get posterized is to just sort of stand around when it comes time to try and play help defense.

I can't believe both sides agreed to this part of the CBA. It is the dumbest thing I think I've ever seen in a CBA. Paul George misses out on $30 million because a handful of sportswriters didn't vote for him.

i would say that butler getting all-nba has a lot of meaning about his future with the bulls, but i mean what the gently caress does it matter, the front office is going to do the exact dumbest loving thing possible every single time, i'm a basketball nihilist now.

Butler isn't a FA until 2019, and the DPE contract would kick in when he's 30. If the Bulls are stuck in an ugly rebuild then (very possible) Butler's 35% of cap contract may not make a lot of sense. They do have time before they have to deal with that though.

Why didn't they just bump up the difference between Bird and non-bird contracts? They over corrected for the lack of cap smoothing in the dumbest way possible IMO.
