I'm pretty convinced she was working off a script written by Gar Forman because she talked about how exciting it was to be back in the playoffs and that the team would be even better next year because it takes awhile for new players to work together. Was waiting for her to mention Luke Kennard being #1 on their draft board.

For real I was kind of depressed because I've had them 11 years and it was mostly fun.

I mean I guess Jimmy turned out better than Ronnie Brewer...

Sure, but I thought the plan was to develop Ben Simmons to run the point? Do they move him to the 3 then?

Simmons wasn't going to be guarding ones unless Brett Brown had a stroke or something.

Position in the NBA only matters in terms of what you can defend. Offensively it doesn't mean much, outside of your role in the offense you want to run.

Simmons might initiate the offense, Fultz can too.

Fultz will be defending the guards.

The average person is a moron and smart people aren't any better

I don't understand why Stern is popular around here when he was responsible for that dog whistle STOP THESE MEN FROM DRESSING LIKE THUGS on top of his decades-long history of being a true anti-player piece of poo poo

at least the dress code completely backfired and now Rich Young Black Men (Oh no!!!) are wearing Expensive Fashions (Oh no!!! Gay!!!)

full outfits of excessively baggy clothes looked silly anyways. Served no purpose except to allow Gilbert to conceal his pistols on the court

I mean the league had a huge problem with perception its no mystery why the dress code started the Year after Malice.

The NBA was massively shook after that and overcorrected.

Also people probably like Stern around here because he is the quintessential supervillain Sports commissioner without being a bitch about it like Goodell.

Stern literally told a group of all stars when negotiating the CBA that he knew where the bodies were buried if they want to go down that road.

Like lovely he may be but Its funny as poo poo.

Also the NBA is only behind the MLB in terms of player power Tbh

lmao at a team completely making GBS threads on months and months of work by their scouts because he had a bad workout.

couldn't be my team.

we have no college scouts and our draft picks are selected by whoever in the draft is closest to Gar Foreman and failing that the most unathletic 4 year college kid they can find.

If Butler is the third option, his numbers will fall just like Bosh and Love's did. Love was a WS > .230, PER > 25 player just like Butler. Butler is also just 1 year younger, so it's not like there's a big difference in age or anything.

Butler can Guard Curry, Klay, Durant, and Draymond.

Love can maybe guard Dray.

Lebron had to do loving everything for them to have a chance, You had Richard loving Jefferson guarding Durant for large stretches of that series.
