    Don't think it would be that easy. OKC has so many opportunities that they're bound to hit. There's a number of guys who don't pan out though. We traded for one when we did the Durant deal, Dario for Darius Baszley. He couldn't get off the bench here or in OKC. I think we have good scouts now...

    Morey was in a tough spot. Probably best he is let go as Philly is hamstrung by Embiid. I know they got swept but I don't think anyone predicted them getting past Boston so ultimately it seems weird to expect more.

    Performing poorly in a playoff game strips someone of their star label, we've seen it for over weeks now. Ant sucked the other day so I pointed out how it's too bad he he was no longer a star and Minnesota might trade him this offseason. Since he had good game 4 though apparently he no longer...

    I can't find a definitive answer. We will pay less having dodged the tax occasionally but I can't figure out the pick side.

    The weighted odds of the bottom 3 teams in the standings all having a 14% chance of winning the lottery ended up biting Indiana. They were the 2nd worst team by record but that didn't matter with the anti-tanking measures.

    Brought me some joy to see him called out for jumping to block a shot 20 feet away. He'd do that here regularly and it drove me nuts. So glad he's a Laker now. I hope he re-signs in LaLa-Land

    He's definitely a good vet for Fleming to learn from. It's impressive how he's been able to consistently contribute despite never being a focal point. He was #3rd or #4th option in Golden State, Dallas, Sacramento, and San Antonio without ever being cancerous. Physically he's not much different...

    He doesn't mind paying it but he aims to avoid the repeater tax that pushes pick to the end of the round. He needs to make it out of the tax every 3 years for that. That's why it was a big deal to get out this year.

    The 2025-26 NBA draft prospect watch thread.

    The Suns do have the 47th pick this year. It could be better but it also could be worse. I'm glad we have a pick, although it likely amounts to nothing.

    Barnes is a stop gap but if Fleming continues to advance then that is fine. He's still producing currently, which is what is most important.

    John Collins, Harrison Barnes, Dean Wade, and Precious are names on my wish list. Probably that order also.

    Barnes is good enough to start for San Antonio the last 2 years. I'd take him if we can afford him. The days of glass cleaning PF's are over. In the top 20 for rebounds a game there's 4 PF's, Evan Mobley and Chet are 2 of those 4 and split their time at C. Jalen Johnson is the 3rd from Atlanta...

    Colin Cowherd nails the perfect KD analogy, he's a boat as the happiest days of the owners life is the day they acquire him and the day they get rid of him.

    They paid a fair price for PG13. Oladipo was on the verge of being an All-star, and did in Indiana, plus Sabonis was also an All-star in Indiana. OKC got a good deal because PG said he was leaving as a free agent at the end of the season.

    He seems to have something personal against Wemby. He mentioned Wemby as a reason he was so competitive during the All-star game and also did all the jump balls. Not exactly smart on his part but got to give credit for trying.

    Ant had a terrible outing. According to the Booker rules he is no longer a star and Minnesota should trade him. He had a team worst -33 in a 38 point loss. He scored 12 points with 0 assists and 4 turnovers.

    If history is any indicator then they'll cheap out on the fringes. They paid Russ, KD, and Ibaka back in the day but going over their set limit for Harden was too rich. They're also 3 of the highest paid since Chet and Jalen reupped last offseason. So the time in which you examine it skews...

    Having a Devin Booker is better than not having one. He may not produce a title on his own but he sets the floor of the team higher and Devin in particular has proven to be someone other players want to play with so ultimately he isn't standing in the way of us competing. People can whine about...

    Not a great list of PF's available this offseason. John Collins, Tobias Harris. Harrison Barnes, Rui Hachimura, Jeremy Sochan. Those are guys we might be able to afford. The only names out of our price range are Lebron, Porzingis, Draymond, and Tari Eason, who is young and restricted. I'm in...

    I think unlimited is too much as it risks slowing the game down way too much but ultimately if they got more calls right then it wouldn't be an issue. The playoffs should expand rhe challenge rules, even if regular season stays. This is why everyone plays. They need to add a 4th ref in the...

    I like AG and would want him if he was due like $8+ million less a year. His contract makes it too much.
