Libertine posted:The Dirk trade with Milwaukee will probably go down in NBA history as the single most one-sided draft steal in NBA history. Their entire team for almost two decades was built around that single move. Maybe the best draft day move ever made. You kind of moved the goalposts. you said get out of the basement. or better than a second round exit. Dallas won the lottery with dirk but was varying levels of bad at times. Good moves to bring in Tyson Chandler et al won them that title in 2011. Houston made it to the WCF with a team that was 100% mercenary signings. If the bar is "win a title" we have evidence of drafting, trading, and free agency working well as strategies. You can build teams in multiple ways. The one consistent factor is shrewd (and lucky) management. You are right that the kings show no history of that. edit: bad is the wrong word to describe the Mavs. Maybe not real contenders would be a better way to phrase it.

Western teams have, for a while now, better front offices and owners in place. This will probably change in the future.

Rick posted:The Rockets title runs are what people really are missing and are must viewing for anyone who thinks people exaggerated Hakeem because naw it's true as gently caress. The team around Hakeem for the first run is the definition of mediocre. It's funny though because it is 100% the proto-version of the Dwight Magic teams with four shooters and Dwight grabbing infinity rebounds. Mario Ellie, Vernon Maxwell, and young Bob Horry were not a core that should have won a ring that year...but Hakeem

Lockback posted:In a little fairness the Grizzlies and others were starting to get higher on Marc Gasol despite him being a 2nd round pick who hadn't been in the NBA yet. A lot of teams valued him more than a typical 2nd round pick. Oh, for sure. But even the loftiest interpretation of him at that point didn't make up for making the Lakers title favorites with Pau. I'm really happy it didn't turn out to be the fleecing I thought it would be. The Grizz and Nick deserve better than that

I can't believe how much more watchable the team is with Pringles and without Dwight. I mean, it makes sense now but I was honestly expecting them to be more of a shitshow. They are going to get bounced from the playoffs early in an insanely entertaining series and I'm very okay with that

I think D'antoni needs to start getting jimmy harden more rest. Granted, the team looks like absolute poo poo without him facilitating, but they still need to find a way to get him another minute or so on the bench a game I think.
