    Trail Blazers guard Malcolm Brogdon has applied for Polish citizenship, according to BasketNews (Twitter link). The Rose Garden Report’s Sean Highkin explains that Brogdon’s wife’s father is Polish and that there’s been talk that Brogdon could play for Poland’s national team in the Olympic qualifying tournament in July (Twitter link). However, nothing is finalized at this moment.

    He would fit in there pretty well. I'm thinking this move would be good for the Magic.

    I don't get it Does ingram at 6'10" play the 2? Or are you playing Banchero at the 5? or benching Wagner.
    Not just because he's on our team, but I think someone like Simons would fit so much better with them.

    Banchero is bigger listed at 6-10 and 250. I would assume both those players would work as the PF/SF spots. Not sure they would stick with Wagner and Joe Ingles? No way Simons can play the defense they need or has the length they need. I honestly don't think they will find a team willing to take Simons at any position.
    Guess I would need to see the rest of their moves?

    That year produced the only true champion. Every year since has been bogus.

    Wow, that reminded me a lot of Ralph Miller's offense at Oregon State. Which makes sense, since Miller played from 1937-41.

    Check out how high Miller is in the basketball coaching tree.

    2007 Warriors were awesome. Curry was only 2 years later.

    And they only made it into the 2nd round, then in 08 they didn't make the playoffs.

    It's funny kind of. They won 42 games 2006-07 and made the semis. The next year they won 48 games and didn't make the playoffs. For 12 years prior they didn't make the playoffs and for 5 years after until 2012-13 they didn't make the playoffs.
    That one year in 2007 was an anomaly if I ever seen one. No they were not awesome. More lucky than awesome. Monta Ellis wasn't even a starter to begin that year.

    Looks like the crowd is a bit bigger for that game than most WNBA games but pretty much yeah.
