Oh I’d hate to see it too. You think Celtics fans are insufferable now? Imagine them after that happened lol

TRADE at 3. Orlando Magic (via Blazers): Scoot Henderson, PG, G League Ignite Orlando Magic receive: Anfernee Simons and No. 3 pick Portland Trail Blazers receive: Wendell Carter Jr., Gary Harris, No. 6 pick and No. 11 pick The availability of this pick might be the worst-kept secret in basketball. As ESPN's Zach Lowerelayed, Portland is expected "to explore the kind of veteran help that pick—plus other players—might fetch for Damian Lillard. While Blazers fans are surely dreaming of bigger names than those listed here, Portland doesn't appear one player away from climbing the standings. Adding a pair of plug-and-play veterans in Carter and Harris would deepen this roster, and the club could explore additional opportunities by moving down the board. Carter is a rock-solid center who can anchor the defensive end and juice the offense as a screen-setter, finisher and ball-mover. Harris is a top-shelf on-ball defender who just buried 43.1 percent of his long-range looks. Both would be effortless fits alongside Lillard (and, ideally, Jerami Grant). Orlando, meanwhile, might be incentivized to pounce if Henderson slips this far. The Magic have a few intriguing options at point guard (Markelle Fultz, Jalen Suggs and Cole Anthony), but the hyper-explosive Henderson has a ceiling that sits several stories above the rest. Adding him and Simons to a core that includes Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner might give Orlando one of the league's brightest long-term outlooks. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10077027-2023-nba-mock-draft-3-trade-ideas-to-shake-up-the-lottery Put Shaedon Sharpe instead of Simons and I’d jump on this trade so fast I’d probably beat Usain Bolt

AG finally accepting his role in the NBA. all those wasted years of him and the Magic trying to make him a franchise player we’re just bad.

Can’t believe the Nuggets survived the Scott Foster game. Silver sent out his best henchman last night and the Nuggs still pulled it off. Only thing that can overcome bad refereeing is elite shooting. And it helps that the Lakers transition defense is horrible
