    Dragic deserved it.

    I watched Cavs last night, it was a terrible game. I think the rumors about Warriors being on James list are basically a stunt to get them to become active in the market, and soon.

    Won't be surprised if they offer Brooklyn pick to Clippers in exchange for Jordan and Williams, as well as offload Thompson and JR Smith at the same time. It'd not be a bad deal for them to be honest, they have backed themselves into a corner with those terrible deals and even if DJ and Lou did not resign, they would at least have $30M+ off the bill, and a much, much better chance to do something this season. That Nets pick is likely to come between 7 and 10 and it's historically not that amazing.

    I think it's more likely they trade for those two and their later 1st round pick for Dwight Howard and Marvin Williams. Marvin Williams would be perfect on the Cavaliers. They need long, multi-positional defenders (like Aminu). The more they have, the more switchability they have. You beat the Warriors by being able to defend with switching of screens and length to keep up with Durant as well as heavily contest Curry 3s while being able to play far enough off to not let him drive. Dwight Howard better defensively than DeAndre Jordan right now.

    They should also explore trading Isaiah Thomas.

    Pistons need to move. First game with Blake, in a new arena and this is the crowd they draw?

    Send that team to Seattle and move NO or MEM to the east

    In OKC’s first two games without Roberson they have given up 112 and 124 pts. A win tomorrow puts us a half game back for the 5th seed.

    Jokic with the shot @ westbrick.
    'We ran this play earlier and they play really good defense to keep ball from going up top. and I think Russel fell asleep and Harris got open. Best assist of my life'.

    I am glad OKC lost, not sure if Denver got away with 5 seconds before the inbound pass.

    Looks like a face that wishes he was playing in Portland to me.
    Any thoughts @Carmelo Anthony

    It’s sad PG didn’t end up here. He is the most perfect fit I have ever seen for this team and honestly would make us a contender. Easily
