Do you think so? I think it would be a bit weird to keep the band together for a 41-41 play-in team. A S&T for VanVleet seems like a natural starting point for the Raptors pivoting away from... whatever last year was.

I think a S&T for him is going to be tough. Not impossible but the restrictions that come with a S&T make it hard to make sense for a guy who is good but not carry a team good.

it's gonna be a s&t to the sixers once harden chooses houston and we'll run with a fvv/maxey backcourt everything is fine and good :negative:

Of course things might not be decided yet but if the sixers wanted FVV it'd be a lot easier for him to opt in and then get an extension right after the trade. That would take TaMpErInG to figure out right now but getting FVV via Sign and Trade would mean the sixers would be hard capped, so FVV would be limited to much more more than what he just opted out of.

In light of Jokic and Murray doing the dual 30+ point TD recently I looked for other instances of this happening:

code:
Player			Tm	Date		PTS	REB	AST	STL	BLK
Wilt Chamberlain	PHI	1/9/1966	41	10			11
Billy Cunningham	PHI	1/9/1966	31	16			15


Jerry West		LAL	12/21/1971	33		10	10	
Wilt Chamberlain	LAL	12/21/1971	31	22			12

I’m torn between this being a good or bad idea. Since Tyler mostly sucks I’ll say bad idea, but at this point if he’s available why not give it a shot I guess

He'll probably be confused and rusty. Probably a bad idea for the Heat. Never forget when Jameer Nelson returned for the 2009 finals and looked like a bum with an average GmSc of ~2.

‘Drugs made him think he was in a real fight’: Pros react to Conor McGregor reportedly sending Miami Heat mascot to ER

Another :ms:.

That's why I wouldn't get into a fight with any pro fighter. We live in a world where a random person can deliver a deadly punch. Nobody without training knows how to take a punch from a legit pro. Even a joke punch from a pro could be devastating.

There are a lot of people who've never been punched in the face so they don't understand the potential pain.

Not sure if that's happened before. This game had three teammates with 20+ though: https://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/196801060BAL.html

Very close to four having 20+ rebounds.
