Teague was a steal, and was in talks to be traded for Brandon Jennings to the Bucks for some stupid reason.

The only thing I wish is a fully ready roster for the playoffs, always hate what-ifs like a lot of Thunder runs with injured players or that one time Zbo got suspended because he elbowed Steven Adam's face.

Alfred P. Pseudonym posted:Can Detroit afford to keep Monroe? I don't know how the Josh Smith contract affects the cap going forward but didn't they lose Monroe's bird rights by giving him the QO? No, whatever team that trades for him loses his bird rights. That's what gives Monroe power in negotiations until the offseason.

chunkles posted:I don't really like the Heat comp though because they were a top 10 offense and defense that season, they just needed to retool the offense around motion and small ball. Mozgov helps the Cavs but I don't see what moves they can make to be competitive with the West. Easy, it's called staying healthy because apparently the West is slowly dying to injuries outside of Golden State and that has the usual ticking bomb of Bogut/Curry.

Both the Spurs and Bulls make back-up PGs look like gods at times, but unlike the Bulls PG, Spurs PG always get bigger checks and bigger salary sinkholes after their tenure.

I can't believe we would be having a legit argument on whether Brandon Knight or Kevin Love should get in the all-star spot. Talk about this 2 years ago.

If you could guarantee Lebron James, Kevin Durant, Stephan Curry, etc. to have 0/0/0 stats for the whole game, every team would give at least the rookie max that guy, no question.

Snell going from garbage poo poo to actual NBA player in less than a month is very confusing. I still miss Bellinelli though. Dunleavy's too injury-prone for my taste.

Perkins is good on a team that has no other Bigs bodies to steal from, and possibly Cavs having a euro coach is immune to the wily temptations of Perkins.

I think contract year Dragic is enough to make the playoffs because the East is only going to get worse as the season goes on, and they're the only bottom seed team that has no reason to make the lottery (because Riley doesn't believe in the draft).

Bulls have historically been meh after the all-star break under Thibs. I still remember that terrible loss to the Raptors back in the 1st year when Bargs destroyed us. Then we beat the Heat the very next day somehow. They're always rusty.

The MVP is going to be Curry because the Warriors are the best record in the NBA and there's an actual superstar for sports writers to latch onto, unlike the Spurs in recent years. The only way Harden wins MVP is if Houston at least takes the 2 seed.

It's going to be Curry, there's a difference between who "should" win and who will win based on decades of how sports writers vote on these things. Anthony Davis isn't sniffing the top 3 votes for MVP. He could have the greatest season ever outside of Wilt and it doesn't matter because his team isn't even in the playoffs.
