Around the NBA- February 2018

Idk why it's so satisfying to watch the Celtics lose

 

Bron's bitch they are.

 

Osman's stroke is amazing

 

of course its not, I just said statistically speaking he misses over 60% of his games and then used that in comparison to the games played in an ECF. I could have instead said "its almost as likley he misses the ECF and plays in it"

 

did they trade a 1st round pick as well?

 

They traded their first (not the BKN one) in the IT+Frye for Clarkson+Nance deal, the Cavs really rocked the deadline.

 

Lebron's all smiles now. Wait til adversity hits.

Such a cerebral player tho. Don't think there's a smarter baller currently in the NBA.

 

They sure did, I have no clue why the Jazz got so little for Hood, most deadlines you would think he would be worth a first but not this year.

 

I'm very interested in what Love is gonna do when he gets back, will be the first time since Minny he doesn't have a me first PG. Hill is gonna feed him in the post and I think Love is gonna look the best he's been in a Cavs uniform.

 

I wish we dealt Shabazz, Hark, our first rounder for him and Joe Johnson..

 

Wow, that would be a huge overpay.

 

OMG, Antoine Walker looks like a fatter version of Shaq. WOW

 

I like hood but that is a major overpay for him.

 

It's enough till he faces Warriors. People are crazy, we all know how good they are. Man was on triple-double last year and no way near championship.

 

Is it? Shabazz is not gonna be here next year, Hark is being paid for the next 2-3 years and Johnson is expiring. Our pick is gonna be in the 20s, so we are looking at getting another player of Swanigan's caliber on a team that needs a guy like Hood who has proven he can score and has good size. What looks better? Our current roster or...?

Dame / ET-Baldwin
CJ / Pat
Hood / Johnson
Aminu / Collins
Nurk / Davis

 

The warriors are a superteam the like of which the league hasn't' really seen since there were what 8 teams in the league. The Union was very stupid on not allowing cap smoothing going forward and its showing, the lack of foresight is going to hurt a lot of non star players paydays for the next few years. An MVP in his prime switching teams to join a 2 time MVP with the DPOY and another all D wing player who is arguably the best shooter in the league is just stupid.

 

Just tryin’ to add to the ET/Crabbe/MyLe lets overpay for non-game changin’ talent.

 

It depends on if we get the Harkless we have been seeing, the one from last year, or the one from earlier this year. Harkless from last year is better then Hood just to begin with and yes Hood makes a lot less then Harkless but freeing up capspace really does us nothing and the cost of a 1st round pick that from the look of this deadline, are valued extremely high by teams is just overkill.

 

Crowder is an all right return. He used to be good only a year ago at Boston and Snyder might get something out of him... The whole Jazz team has been rocking lately so I won't be surprised if Crowder finds his form there.

Hood was gone in the Summer anyway. Nobody was going to offer much for a six month rental of a RFA.
