We're about to add the leading scorer for the #2 seed last season. I can't wait to see how Ott orchestrates the line-ups. He's been a maestro thus far.
It almost feels like making a splash trade at the deadline in getting Green back from injury. Possibly the 2nd best player on the roster and we have done everything we have done without him.

I'm thinking the Suns will make a minor trade or add a new player, but nothing major.

Anthony Davis is likely to have hand surgery but teams are still interested.

Regarding NBACentel:

Yeah, that's the idea. They're meant to be funny.

I could better enjoy the comedy if there wasn't other sites pretending to be insiders.

Only so much fake news one can take. I'm not a fan of wannabes and those sites that parade fake news for hits.

Collin has to keep shooting. Needs to find his rhythm.

A lot of hockey pucks being poked away by the Heat in front of the net.

It came out later that he is NOT having hand surgery, so that is wrong, but he will be out at least 6 weeks.

I also think the notion that anyone wants him is wildly incorrect.

It will take an extremely specific circumstance for him to be tradable, and if the Mavs want anything in return they will have to take on a lot of ugly salary.

There is no scenario where a team trades real value for him right now.

Yes, I see the previous tweet is no longer available. AD's contract alone makes a trade difficult. A trade would have to include other bad contracts coming back.

Always weird to me how guys develop. When he was at UCLA I would compare Peyton Watson to Kuminga because they were the same age and point out how far ahead of Watson JK was. Kuminga is buried on the W's bench and about to be traded and P Wat is one of the leading candidates for most improved. ALmost 14 PPG, 5 boards, over 50% 41 from 3 and a really good defender. At UCLA he couldn't dribble more than twice without turning it over it seemed, every other 3 was an airball, he could block shots and get steals but he was so bad on offense he didn't play much.

And now he's high on the list of pending FA's I hope the W's can get but my guess is Denver will keep him. He was a Covid kid though missed most of his senior year because of the Covid shutdown so he was way behind when he got to college
