    I think they will trade Saric, he has been awful this season and looking at their forum they all seem to want him out. They could get a decent piece in return as I think a lot of teams will still want him.

    Fultz will be their PG.

    Apparently 76ers already extended Covington for the next 4 years, $62M but he will already receive $15M this year and it won't count against cap going forward which is masterstroke. The next 4 years they will owe him $47M, cap friendly deal.

    The beauty of Simmons is you don't really need starting PG, just a guard who can can spread the floor with his outside shooting......and defend PG's. Is that Fultz?

    Simmons dominates the ball and rightly so....as he makes great decisions. Fultz will need to adjust IMO.

    Thomas Robinson had a good game a couple of hours ago. In the boxscore's right column is PIR, which is effectiveness points. He had 29 out of the team's 79 PIR points, 37% of team production.

    Khimki teammates include Alexey Schved, Blazer #1 pick Monia, and Blazer #2 pick Todorovic. Maccabi opponents include Blazer Summer Leaguer Pierre Jackson.

    Interesting observation: Dewayne Dedmon is now shooting threes.

    Mozgov attempts them too albeit less frequently and with worse effect.

    Who else?

    Curry is trash. 1 of 9 from field in the biggest game of the year so far. Dude has two rings by riding coat tails. Can't win Finals MVP. He reminds me a lot of players who suck. Adam Morrison has two rings too.

    Barkley said Celtics wouldn't hold Warriors to 94. Well they only have 81 with less than 4 minutes to go.
