  1. Nah I don’t think we would ever consider that All Eyes. The trade for The Spurs that would be ironic and give them what they need is Fox for Kawhi. Not that it would happen just something I was thinking about.
  2. This is the 8th different champion in a row. Four of the eight champions are from the east. Such a time of parity in the league. Hopefully we can win one eventually. The offseason is officially here. I think the Giannis situation resolves this week.
  3. No worries at all CT just sharing an article with some very unlikely ideas that haven’t been discussed. As far as Paolo playing more like a PF or a big. I think this is what he has been wanting the last few years. He has pushed for a PG to handle the primary ball handling duties. With Mosely we would always revert to “Paolo save us from the top of the three point line offense”. Like you and others have mentioned he would be better served being more of a finisher. I’d like to see him be closer to Giannis than Tatum on offense. He should be living in the paint.
  4. https://orlandomagicdaily.com/orlando-magic-could-regret-waiving-jonathan-isaac-without-exploring-trades Here are some other ideas on what to do with JI. The Monk idea is interesting but it’s probably far fetched.
  5. Wow thats big news on the Giannis situation. Simmons is about as plugged into Boston Sports as they come. Yesterday Windhorst was saying if either Orlando (Paolo) or Cleveland (Mobley) wants Giannis either could get him over Miami. So if we don’t get him it was a choice by the front office. Only time will tell if that is the correct move should we keep Paolo instead of trading for Giannis.
  6. So I guess our collapse was the third worst of The Playoffs this year? Lol This one and Cleveland’s last round make ours look better. We should hang a banner thanking The Spurs and Cavs.
  7. I’m with you +1. I can’t stand Chet he was lucky to get drafted to that team. Wemby didn’t guard him the whole series for those making excuses for his awful play. The moment was too big for him in my opinion.
  8. I’ll give The Knicks a chance but I think Spurs win in 6 games.
  9. This is the part that I struggle with CT. Before this season I thought Paolo could get into the 10-15 range and maybe win a championship like Paul Pierce or someone at that level. The regular season performance has definitely made me question whether that is even possible. He did level up in The Playoffs as usual to his credit. I personally believe Giannis is far from done. I don’t think he is where Howard was on The Lakers for example. I am torn as I’ve said before but part of me just wants to actually go for it for the first time in 15 years with a Hall of Fame Champion player. The idea of some long 5 + year window with this core doesn’t seem realistic to me.
  10. If a trade were to happen I think we would have to take back either Kuzma or Turner from Milwaukee don’t you? I wouldn’t be willing to give up Paolo, Suggs, Jase and a first either. Giannis in Orlando would take some additional moves to balance out the roster. We still need a lot more shooting from somewhere. I think we are just running it back with maybe some changes to the bench though.
  11. I’m surprised people think The Knicks would be favored against either team. I think The Knicks are on a roll in The East but The Spurs and Thunder both have been much better all season. As long as OKC doesn’t win another championship I will be happy.
  12. I think I still take Giannis for his upside. He can still be the best player in any playoff series. This was a good question and a tough one. You could make an argument for any of them.
  13. I’m very happy with the hire. I am 50/50 on a Giannis trade also. He is still a top 5-10 player and will be for a few more years.
  14. Probably all the off the court stuff I would assume. I forgot about all of that myself until I researched a little more.
  15. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/48822752/kenny-atkinson-defends-keeping-outs-cavaliers-folded And yet, Cleveland responded after each of those losses. But Tuesday's collapse was one of the worst in NBA postseason history. The blown 22-point lead is the second-largest, fourth-quarter collapse in the past 30 postseasons. The LA Clippers overcame a 24-point deficit against the Memphis Grizzlies in 2012. This one was pretty historic. Kenny Atkinson looked an awful lot like Mosely in this game to be honest.
