2016-2017 Around The NBA

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Spurs just don't have enough offensive punch to beat the Warriors in a seven game series. They are gonna have trouble with Houston too.

Never doubt the Clippers' ability blow double digit leads in the second half.

Break this team up in the summer. They've run their course.

They did a few years back and no one wanted to admit it.

Agree with the rest of your point but I'm not sure Jimmy Buckets is better than Isaiah.

To each his own. In fact, if Boston gets Fultz or Ball, I would re-engage Chicago/Indiana about a Butler/George trade, this time with Isaiah on the table.

Good question, especially since IT is a free agent in a year. Maybe more confidence they could re-sign IT?

Eh...Paying IT. 30+mil a year for 5 years doesn't make any sense if you're trading AWAY Paul George or Jimmy Butler. Jimmy and Paul are better players. If you're trading them, you're tearing it down and starting over, you don't want IT, you want assets.

If Boston gets Fultz or Ball, they aren't going to be able to get George or Butler without including them. It will be the same as the Love trade, in terms of requirements. The 2018 Brooklyn pick isn't good enough, because Brooklyn's gonna spend a bunch of money to try and be mediocre next year, because why not?


If Boston can get Fultz or Ball, they should, and then they should trade Isiah for the best package they can get and just build around their current young core+Fultz or Ball. not gonna get a guy like Butler or George, but they can definitely get some really nice assets/young guys for Isiah.

I'm sure Boston could call and offer IT + the 2018 Nets pick. Would the Bulls/Pacers do that? Idk. But nevertheless, you're probably right. But we do agree, if the Celtics get Fultz/Ball they definitely should trade IT.
 
A Portland/Golden State first round series might be fun.
