Nick Young is gonna get 6MOY for shamelessly gunning off the bench in Golden State. Iguodola will get denied again. :anime:

Two seasons of 34% shooting versus a recent season of 40% shooting. Sounds like a good opportunity for a bet!

My proposal: if Nick Young shoots below 38% during the 17-18 regular season, I win the bet; if he shoots 38% or better I lose the bet; if he doesn't attempt more than 100 threes the bet is off (regular season only for all this). The bet winnings goes to charity, the winner of the bet gets to name the charity.

Who wants to take me up on a 100% chance to help a charity and a smaller chance to make me look foolish?

$25 I'm in.

Chris Paul
James Harden/Eric Gordon
Trevor Ariza/Luc Mbah a Moute
Ryan Anderson/PJ Tucker
Clint Capela/Nene

D League/Trade/fill out the bench fodder:
PF Zhou Qi
C Chinanu Onuaku
C Tarik Black
PF Cameron Oliver
SF Jarrod Uthoff
PG Isaiah Taylor
PG Bobby Brown* not signed yet

You done good Morey. I like the team even if there are no further trades, obviously swapping Anderson out for Melo would be nice.

Thats a pretty good line-up, Morey has done really well as usual.

Just move them to Anaheim where there is already a perfectly good basketball ready arena

Did you live out here when they used to play in Anaheim? It was a lot of fun in the late 90's to see them, the arena had good crowds.

Inglewood is annoying for a new arena.

Nah, I've only been out here five years. It seems like a logical move though. It's an area that's shown it can support pro sports teams even with competiting franchises in LA, the arena is already there, and I think people would be excited to see NBA games without having to brave the traffic to get up to LA

Completely agree. When Sterling was being forced to sell I was hopeful that the team might move down here. Oh well

Hi, I'm looking for a new team (and sport) to follow now that soccer has truly gone off the deep end with money. However, the soccer club that I support has always struggled with kinda rubbish ownership, retaining any players that show even a glimpse of promise and overall has been a bit of a misery circus after I started supporting them as a kid back in 2000 or so. What team fits that bill in the NBA so I know not to repeat the mistake?

So with T-Mac getting into the Hall of Fame, I'm wondering who gets into the Hair of Fame.

Thinking His Hairness and Frobe are first ballot, tbh, along with Ben Wallace circa 04, as well as Kawhi and his rows long past their sell-by date.

Edit: I left out Chris Kaman, but he's only a Hair of Famer for his anti-hairness. It's a conundrum. I guess we could throw in Manu's bald spot as well, since it's been growing since he was 14.

who would be the classic NBAers who would be best online during their prime? I'd say either Walton or Marvin Barnes.

There would probably be a lot of Gilbert Arenas' out there
