IMHO they should have never traded for Dame and move away from Jrue. I get the need to satisfy Giannis for contract extension but still…

And who da thunk Jrue gets rerouted to Boston of all places!
Id you don’t empower the superstar you lose him.

What about all the moves that perhaps and players make owners make and it does pan out?
Little fainfair as the mistakes usually are more glaring.
Lebron did not get on with David Blatt, basically had him removed after a season and a half of trying. (Blatt was hired BEFORE Lebron came back to cleveland as context). With Ty Lue, they won a chip.
Usually we only talk about LeGM’s bad moves.
Adrian Griffin was to have coached a team with Jrue HOliday and not have many tweeks for the Defense. The Dame thing came after.
Obviously MIlwaukee despite the good record is not seen as a top contender with Griffin as coach. Well, lets see how they fair after before we blast Giannis as being a coach eating diva.

Hmm. hate to say it but Giannis might have given the NBA or other teams the right to seek an investigation into the Bucks for cap violations. Giannis says the coach has to go for calling Thanasis insurance fraud. he doesn't belong in the NBA. So, the coach of the team reveals an ulterior motive that doesn't have a basketball purpose. (See Kidd, Jason). Here, Giannis is revealing the coach got fired because he doesn't believe and verbally said that Capped Max Salary Star's brother doesn't belong on the roster. They couldn't pay Giannis more, but they are paying the brpther money the coach doesn't believe be deserves.

Rack up the penalties.

but Silver will not do this. he is beholden to the top 5 players. Sorry Adrian, you fired for speaking truths but the NBA is a business where they cater to the top 1%.

Shades of the “Chris Smith” conspiracy!! When KNicks paid Chris and JR Smith.

Ooh. Good memory. Smith did allege something was amiss when they cut his brother. But the difference is that the Knicks made a basketball move to remove a non-player after giving him a shot. Bucks removed the coach to keep a non-player after giving him a shot. And the player basically openly admitted it in an interview.

Chet looks like the better and more knowledgeable player today.

I would not put too much into who is better yet. Chet has so much talent around him he can do things Wemby can't. With the SPurs lack of talent why would you not double and triple team Wemby.

most rebounds are below the rim. it's more about carving out space, anticipation, and desire than it is height or vertical jump

Chuck could get under guys leverage wise and was immensely strong. I recall stories of 405 bench press (oakley was at 350 or 365)

(5)(7)

Dejounte sure did a good job helping to slow down Luka tonight.

Mavs win 148 - 143. Not exactly Knicks/Heat. More importantly though keeping an eye on Dallas position. Don't want them to get too close to the play in zone.

Ok, hear me out... That defense with him, OG and McBride! Frank would slide right into one of our TPEs. He's still only 18 + 7.
