Fun video about how Denver built their defense to protect Jokic from PnR on the outside. Keep in mind what a terrible defender Jokic is in space and then realize they built a top10 defense with him. https://youtu.be/XqwTkgj5ORY?si=CYBFBH14ednwPhl2

I’d be thrilled with Risacher and Dilly

Risacher and Reed would be great, but very unlikely Reed falls to 8th. Risacher and Dilly is a possibility and will be great too. Dilly can shoot the rock too, not as high as Reed but what Dilly can do is break defenses like TP did.

Perhaps you need to explain, "How many franchises win a title every decade?", as a response to criticizing the franchise. Maybe we misunderstood, because on the surface, that response sounds like you're excusing the franchise because they won in the past.

Correct, the announcer was absolutely braindead which is why everyone is confused.

We hold the chips, lest we forget that! I prefer castle/rob/Topic with Wemby vs Garland.

^This Some hate when facts get in the way of a good debate! Furthermore, this dudes stamina is unreal. Trim him down 10 lbs, work on footwork, and voila!

More like inexperienced than anything else. They’re only going to get better, likewise Mavs, Rockets. FATFO has a lot of work ahead.

It’s about the supporting cast, Joker as well as others are insulated by the surrounding players on defense. If OKC would of had Edey, Dallas would’ve been in serious trouble.

People act like bigs don’t continue to dominate the league. Yes, the 3pointer has changed the game, and we had a dry spell of elite bigs for a quick Golden State minute, but regular order has been restored. The last 6 MVPs were elite bigs. 3 of the last 4 champs featured elite bigs. Unless you...

How did you come up with that? I’m seriously intrigued by that.

I do feel kinda bad for Edey, who just happens to exist in the wrong era for his type of game. 25 Years ago, he'd be in the running for the #1 pick. That, plus he surprisingly outperformed Clingan in the Combine's athletic testing portion, and still can't (for some) shake the label of "big stiff."...

No, because the salary is only PART of the equation. The other part is acquisition cost. You can probably get Garland without any Atlanta picks, just the two others ( CHI,CHA) plus a pick or two of our own.

Dilly’s quickness can break down a defense, has Kyrie handles and can create & score at will. With the pg being a huge hole, the Spurs arent going to pass on this opportunity. I think the perimenter defender project will still be there at 8. I dont think Dilly will be there at 4, but Reed isnt a...

I never said I want Edey or any other traditional big. My point was just that the style of play in every era is determined by it's best players.

There’s no use for an Edey if he gets played off the floor by switching, and if the y can do it to the more athletic Capela of 5 years ago, they’ll be planning their offense around getting Edey on a guard.

Rishacher has been my obvious #1 for a while now and his recent run of good games only confirms that belief. His combination of size, shooting, and defense is exactly what we need to be drafting. In my unlikely dream draft we get Risacher at 4 and Reed Sheppard at 8. That puts high BBIQ...

That would be a tussle.

v, I got that beat...Trump outlived this barrel a shit outta State sponsored CNN...CNN political commentator Alice Stewart dies By Holmes Lybrand, Evan Perez and Kaanita Iyer, CNN 4 minute read Updated 9:51 PM EDT, Sat May 18, 2024

This is the problem I keep mentioning with any of these trades for these oft mentioned guards. The Spurs can obviously make a a good offer in a vacuum, but the whole point of trading Garland would be to sell Mitchell on contending or having a pathway to doing so and upgrading the fit while...

Choking off the mid 3rd qtr 17 point lead exposes OKC as 2024 playoff frauds.

OKC won 24 games two years ago. SGA, Dort, Giddey and Wiggins are the only remaining players in the rotation from that season. Two key pieces, Giddey became a negative asset and Wiggins is just a decent bench player. It's all about front office competency. Spurs have plenty of assets. If...

A big part was all the rules changed as the defensive were pretty much neutered all in the name to help team’s offense 3 ball shooters - The Steph Rules

Agreed, there is no upside. (They've) spent the vast lion's share of their time and efforts running mad in front of him throwing Stormy nude in his face. They couldn't resist. They'd already done it once in order to keep him out of the White House. That didn't work, and it didn't stop 'em from...

You mean between OKC and Dallas? OKC is a low key contender who have their core, an MVP caliber PG some promising youngsters and picks. Spurs are a bottom team with Wemby and picks (which they still will be next year if they stay put). Let's try to actually build a competitive team before...

Crowd in a frenzy during warmups

It’s funny how a ton of basketball experts on this board swore a Vic and KP couldn’t work but we all now know that wasn’t true! I’ll do a wait and see on this; for what it’s worth “ I “ think it could work in a big way because we have Vic.

Giddey should not have been on the floor, esp in the 4th and double esp in the stretch run. Coaching error.

It wouldnt be a crazy idea to take him at #8. I can see Victor at wing since he can shoot and has great handles and passing skills. Edey would command the center position with defense and being able to grab tons of rebounds. Why not?
