Tatum would be perfect as a super 6th man with his length and versatility

He might be the 2nd best player on the team being in his prime but you aren't gonna start Tatum over LeBron or Durant, even though he is next in line once those guys retire

I don't think you bring in veterans like Durant, curry, and LeBron if you don't plan on starting them. They are there to lead by example and set the tone

Benching Edward's is insane. I get it's team USA, they are all good, and it's about finding the best lineups. But edwards might be the best player on the roster. He's possibly the most athletic guy in the whole nba, and maybe the most competitive. He's an absolute dog, and his skills have caught up ...

Probably kawhi. Weird situation. They named the initial 11 man roster. Then named him as the 12th. Since them he has missed half the playoff games for the clips

that's the only correct 5

embiid has been playing dirty all series and we all know it

He's casting himself into the villain role

Just saw the Suns have no first round picks from 2025-2030 and no second round picks from 2024-2030. That's not good. Yeah they're fucked. The owe a ton of money to their current dudes too. No draft pics and no financial flexibility, for a team of offensive minded players that didn't gel and don't ...

Trae is good. But not a foundation piece to dream about building around

Yeah I'm not sure why he included Trae in that list. The hawks probably aren't even keeping him much longer. Constantly in trade rumors

If you had to pick one player, age 25 or under, NOT named Luka, to start your franchise, would you pick Ant, Shai, Ja, Trae, or one of the two Tys? On a related noted, the Suns should be embarrassed and fair or not, Vogel should probably be unemployed starting today, but there is pretty much zero c...

6ers bout to loose rather than find out. Wonder if they'll just move on from him in the offseason? He seemed like an intriguing addition for them when it happened, but it hasn't worked out. I wonder if he's a locker room issue? It's weird how teams where he's done well have all chosen to move on fr...

Dajuan was the Brady Morningstar of 2022. He played good defense and helped the offense flow. Role players are needed and sometimes fit better than a superior player

It seemed to work well with Kj. Not so much with Hunter.

Too slow to roll with any purpose

Wasn't Harris something like +20 that second half? Like, the comeback happened with him in, and iirc we were up when he went out. Then we were basically even the rest of the way. I'm not saying Remy's big plays weren't essential, they absolutely were. He was huge. But there seems to be a narrative ...

Kj had almost nothing to do with it, but in the final four Dajuan had 11pts, 7ast, 5stl, 1blk, and 57min played......so I'd say Dajuan had quite a bit to do with the 21/22 title. This. You all motivated me to watch the 2nd half versus UNC again. Sure he contributed, but we probably don’t win if we ...

2 national championships would put them in uncharted territory.

Would love to see it, but wouldn't say either one had a lot to do with the first one

Watch KJ show up next fall with a semi respectable junpshot

But can he polish off a bottle of scotch at dinner

It feels like we have 6 starters on the roster with dajuan, zeke, Griffen, storr, kj, and hunter. The odd man out might depend on who plays best together and might change as the season progresses If kugel is here he will factor into that. Then you've still got elmarko who I expect good things from b...

So definite starters are Juan Storrs KJ Hunter Fifth is between Elmarko, Griffen, and Mayo. The two of those that don't start should be in the rotation. Then either Bidunga or Clemence playing backup 5 and maybe some 4. But probably not both, cause Self. I assume based on rumors no Kugel. Maybe red...
