2018-2019 Around The NBA thread

Knicks...Nets and Clippers...No doubt him and Kyrie team up in NY or Brooklyn next season

While that's the first thought, I wouldn't count out the Clippers, especially with Jerry West at the helm. If they cough up the assets (which they have) to trade for Butler, they'll have max cap space to sign Kyrie and...drumroll...Kawhi, whose camp has made it known that he eyes a non-Lakers L.A. destination...

Didn't really see a situation before where Kawhi would leave the Raptors for the Clippers, but that is it.

Amidst all the drama in the Twin Cities, KAT just signed a supermax that, unlike Wiggins, he actually deserved.

Wolves owner wants Butler dealt immediately.

The same guy who felt Rubio was worth the max but not Love.

Glen Taylor is the worst. He is reviled in MSP.

Andrew Wiggins Is Lazier Than Some Of The Slowest Runners In The NBA

“Motion-tracking cameras recorded Wiggins “running fast” during only 4.8% of his time on the floor, one of the 10 lowest such figures in the league, per Second Spectrum. Almost everyone in his slowpoke vicinity is a plodding 7-footer.”

Can’t believe they gave him a supermax, such a heartless unmotivated player. You can tell the dude doesn’t give two shits about basketball or winning, another story of a physically gifted player getting massively overpaid for potential, you can’t teach heart.

Gordon Hayward was looking a little chunky last night.

 

[Sir'Dom Pointer]

Zach Lavine looks fucking excellent.

Lakers looked pretty “meh” to me. I know it’s only preseason but I hope it stays that way...

Wow not emotionally invested in winning a chip.

I’m so fucking sick of both he and LeBron. I wish the Cavs and Indians could have swapped endings to their 2016s. Assholes.

It's sad that he went from being one of my favorite cavaliers to a self centered prick with an ego bigger than the team.

This was so funny
