Any combination of Monroe, Henson, Delly and DJ.

-51 wins


That would make the Suns on track to win about -25 this year

That would be an amazing trade for the Cavs, but the Nuggets proposal is the best

Hahaha yeah. I think the system needs tweaked a little. Zizic's PER is pretty damn funny in itself.

Well, sure.

Completely missed this over the weekend. From Jason Lloyd's Final Thoughts after Saturday's loss.

17. Interesting to see what’s happening with Kyrie Irving in Boston. In case you missed it, Irving was walking up the tunnel in Philadelphia on Friday when a fan, who was recording, asked Irving where was LeBron. “Suck my dick!” Irving shouted back at him.

18. Irving spoke to the league about the exchange and might get fined for it, particularly since he doubled down when asked if he regretted what he said back.

19. “Hell no,” Irving said. “(The fan) was man enough to record it on video, then that’s all him. I’m glad he got his name out there and then kind of five seconds of fame and it going viral. That’s the social media platform we live on. I take full responsibility what I said and excuse the kids at home and you move on.”

20. I asked a couple of players in the Cavs locker room what they thought about the whole incident. The consensus: Now you’re seeing the real Kyrie Irving.

The Bucks are a team that has expressed interest in trading for Eric Bledsoe, according to league sources

Suns don't have much leverage at this point and I'm not sure the market for him is huge.

Hope they're smart about whatever they offer. Getting rid of anyone in the starting lineup would be the most boneheaded thing ever. Successful teams find a way to get a guy like Bledsoe without hemorrhaging the current roster.

I'd offer like Henson/Monroe, Vaughn and a second or something. If they don't bite, walk away.

Sounds like the Nuggets are closing in on Bledsoe. Oh well.

Right.

One of the local sportsradio hosts I listen to is in a FF league with Morey, and says that Morey is always proposing bitch trades.

Damn near spit out my drink when I saw this earlier.

"Hey here's a guy we just booted from the building because he doesn't want to be on a bad team... do you wanna trade us two of your building blocks for him?"

[justinandimcool]

On the edge of my seat, this Bledsoe stuff is amazing

[Rodey]

Giannis so, so good.

[Rodey]

Has Markelle Fultz ever taken a jumper in his life?

[thebridge15]

what the fuck?

[rickyh24]

Probably shouldn’t be a change of possession.

[thebridge15]

I don't understand how a ref has that bad of court awareness

[Rodey]

That's good stuff.

[Rodey]

Really, though, what on earth are the Sixers doing? Why is Markelle Fultz playing if he can't even shoot a jumper/free throws properly?

Trust the process.

[kydmb99]

Better player today... Greek Freak or Anthony Davis?

[thebridge15]

giannis, he isn't as fragile

[vaxarado]

Very happy D Wade is moving to the bench. As I said before, I think that's the only way he can be effective and works best for the Cavs.

Greek Freak.

Probably some bias but he's more durable, a more versatile defender and a far better playmaker.
