It was a weird signing since Charlotte isn't competing at all. I thought he would have stayed in Dallas or gone to LA to play with Luka. He is a solid veteran for 25 minutes a night.

I think Charlotte will make the playoffs. I watched there preseason games and Bridges is killing it. Dinwiddie didn't make the cut.Sexon, Tre Mann and Josh Green are better.

I didn't realize they got Sexton for Nurkic. It looks like they're trying to build a team without Lamelo and if he returns then they have depth.

That's a good trade. The Jazz must have wanted to save money.

Actually, Sexton has an expiring contract.

Danny Ainge rarely loses trades. Both Nurk and Sexton are expiring after this season so I'm not sure why they made the swap but there's less pressure retaining Nurkic.

Kind of frustrating to see that considering how we got nothing.

And gave up a 1st round pick to do it.

Now, if Mark Williams can't stay healthy, that's three first round picks the Suns have spent on obtaining or trading centers.

I'm leaving Maluach out of the equation.

Kuminga fined $35K for actions toward official

The NBA fined Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga $35,000 for the actions that led to his ejection in a preseason game Tuesday night.

The replays I saw he wasn't actually fouled so he totally overreacted

 

[Russ Smith]

I missed this news.

Lavine, Westbrook, Derozan, Sabonis, Schroeder.

They're going to give up like 150 a game.

The local media is split on it the loyal Kings hype up the fans ones are talking about the offense, but the ones that actually watch games are saying what you said how are they going to guard anybody

We'll know a lot more after Wednesday night. We know the Suns are going to bring the defense.

Not to mention that those dudes are not exactly reliable shooters. Sabonis is the only one who is consistently good on offense.

I still am blown away by DeRozan and Levine being an awful pairing on the Bulls, the Bulls struggling to get rid of them... and the Kings deciding it would be brilliant to bring them together again.

The Heat waive Precious Achiuwa.

Warriors waive Seth Curry but expect to bring him back early in the season when it's possible under the cap

We need to bring back the Haboob! I'm a Payne fan through and through. I think he'd add some wisdom and veteran leadership to the locker room.

I'm not opposed to bringing Cam Payne back. It brings back good memories.

However, I think if the Suns wanted to go that direction, keeping Jared Butler would have been the better option.

Yep, and as much as I like Payne, I'd rather have Goodwin due to his defense.

Skinny Embiid is here:

I don't like James Jones at all. Camara is the one who got away. I'd take him over Dunn, Fleming, or any of the Two-Way wings.

The Heat waive Precious Achiuwa.

Oh great. now you are going to say we need to sign him 1000 times again.

 

[Proximo]

Yep, and as much as I like Payne, I'd rather have Goodwin due to his defense.

Absolutely rather have Goodwin. I think he is actually better in every way.

That trade featured Jrue Holiday, Ayton, Nurkic, Allen, Nassir Little, Keon Johnson, Dimian Lillard and Toumani was tossed in there, as the nobody, and a couple years later he is the best player of the bunch.

Crazy.

Crazy.

And he just got a 4-year, $82 million extension! WOW!

 

[Mainstreet]

Look at the amount of these rookie extension contracts.

Report the Rockets are not expected to sign Tari Eason to an extension.
