    Jordan and Nets agree to 40/4.

    Not to mention Klay and Dray are two of the best defenders in the league.

    The only report I saw was they thought he may be back in March.

    I dont think Curry or Harden go full blown on d either.

    Lebron is a superior defender to Harden and Curry, but Curry is still the guy Id rather have at this point.

    ACL is about 6 months or so. Depending on the severity I could see earliest a Christmas return and latest after the ASB.

    A deal for a center, per Dwight.

    Where did he specifically say it was for a center? Did I miss that?

    Kuzma shot 30% from 3 last year. I believe you are overrating 3/4 of those guys when it comes to shooting 3s. Lebron has hit some big 3s but isn’t a 3 point shooter, neither are AD and Kuzma.

    So who ended up the worst in the Jimmy Butler musical chairs?
    Chicago got Levine.
    Minnesota lost Levine but got Saric but now he’s gone.
    Philly lost Saric and are getting someone from Miami.
    Or did everyone involved get worse?

    Fair enough. I think LeBron / Kawhi / AD would smoke Curry / Kawhi / AD.

    One Kawhi is gonna be playing SG essentially as well — if it were to happen.

    ??
    Kawhi
    Kuzma
    LeBron
    AD

    So whoever said it’s the first all front court big 3 would be incorrect, in my opinion.

    Jimmy “Herpes” Butler.

    Only difference is Butler eventually fully disappears....

    And folks, that deal for a center is most likely going to be a minimum salary contract to a free agent. So take a cold shower and relax - Dwight

    Kuzma shot 37% the year before that.

    Once again —

    Are you going to leave LeBron and AD wide open on 3s?

    You may be right I dont know. They’re all really unique talents, Curry’s size really hurts him in this three on three situation. Personally I think Curry is legitimately the best shooter I have ever seen, the shots he hits regularly are just insanely difficult, he’s incredible, Ive never seen anything like it.
