They are tanking and Murray doesn't help them do that.

I understand that, but Murray is a stud and he’s 25. I know they are rebuilding, but he is the player you rebuild with.

Remember when the Spurs were the best run organization in the league? Wow they are legit bad now.

What are the Spurs doing here? They need youthful players and they traded away their only star.

Watch out or CP will punch you in the balls like all the classy players do.

That’s when my dislike for him started. Julius Hodge was going places and one nut punch ruined it all.

Hunter might be turning the corner. Always been high on him, but if his offense begins to match his defense then the Hawks have a bonafide player on their hands. 

Tracyce Jackson-Davis

Not a Simmons apologist at all, but the guy catches a ton of heat.  Some is legit and some isn’t.  
People need to reevaluate expectations for him.  He isn’t a good shooter and never will be a bonafide scoring threat on offense.  He’s a great defender, facilitator, and has great vision which makes him a fantastic passer.  He’s a very similar skilled player to Draymond Green and doesn’t have that Spartan dog that Draymond has going for him.  Once people begin to understand this then they will have a realistic outlook on Simmons.  Draymond is a HOF player when it’s all over with.  Simmons needs to embrace what he is and to play.

Nobody.

There aren’t rivalries anymore.  The league is all buddy buddy now.  It’s a soft league with mostly soft players.

He quit on his team.  Nobody in their mind can defend that.

Half the unsigned guys are headed to Brooklyn or LAL on minimum salaries I would assume.

I say let Lou kick rocks.  He wanted to retire when he was traded here.  Let him ride someone else’s coattails.

Let’s hope he doesn’t have to play more than mop up duty.

I don’t think he has much left to offer on a team that wants to compete.  I don’t think he was used much in Denver these last playoffs.

I think a one year deal is one too many years.

He isn’t a point guard though.  Lou that is.

Has talent, but definitely needs to earn his keep and the respect of his teammates.  Quit on his college team to focus on himself.  

How is this possible?  I don’t understand the cap enough and this is the reason why my franchises on 2K only last a couple seasons haha.  AD, Lebron, and Russ are slated to make around 123 million next season.  That number figures to be higher than the cap room allows, but under the luxury tax.  Even going over the luxury tax there has to be a limit to what a team can spend?  

I don’t think Wiseman is actually on the block.  Unless GSW are packaging him along with their first pick tomorrow I can’t see them moving him.  Even then I don’t think they are getting a stud player in return.

I really didn’t have a rooting interest in this finals.  Wife is from Wisconsin, but isn’t like a huge fan of the Bucks.  I suppose I was “rooting” for them.  I absolutely root for Giannis and Holiday though.  By all accounts just very good people on and off the court.  I said before the series this Milwaukee team was very tough to dislike.  Phoenix was rather easy to hate because of that dirty cheap shot CP3. Booker is a bonafide whiner now too, but damn near everyone cries nowadays.  I do have some ill will towards Portis though that I can’t let go of.  How are you gonna break your teammates face like he did?!!!?  

My favorite prospects who aren’t grabbing headlines or highly touted:

Jared Butler, Quentin Grimes, Jericho Sims, Isaiah Livers, and of course Aaron Henry.

lol at that proposed offer.  Just not realistic at all.

I went with Jokic as well.  Can dominate a game by not scoring a ton.  Having him and Trae facilitate things would be amazing to see.
