I think he'll be fine generally as a "wing" with flexibility in positioning. I doubt he can run the point, but he's got just about every other general perimeter skill. With Lonzo, Ingram and LeBron, he won't need to be a primary ballhandler.

really depends on if he can really keep up with the players he would need to guard. but i think hed be better situated as an off ball guard simply because his wingspan puts him there. but we will see

I think he's got good enough footspeed that he'll be able to hold down a role. LeBron, Ingram, KCP, Ball and Hart are all good enough to mix and match if they need to hide Svi a bit.

it's weird they're gonna play him at the 3. i know they have nothing there, it just seems weird to commit money to jabari to play there.

Why not play him at the 4 and LM at center? Or do they have a good center I’m forgetting about?

ETA: forgot they drafted Carter

Key to pending @JabariParker offer sheet from Bulls is Chicago’s willingness to play him some at the three along with Lauri Markkanen and rookie @wendellcarter34 up front, w/all (and Bobby Porto’s) playing multiple frontcourt positions.

Milwaukee is $18.5M below the $129.8M tax apron before the Ersan Ilyasova ($7M) and Brook Lopez ($3.4M) signing. Matching a Jabari Parker offer sheet would be extremely challenging and require the Bucks to clear out salary.

Brooklyn has traded Jeremy Lin to the Hawks, league sources tell ESPN.



Sort of admire what the Nets have attempted to do considering the hand dealt them.

They've gotten Crabbe. Took on salary to acquire Russell. Tried to revive Jalil Okafor.

Took on more salary and got some picks from Denver and traded Lin for picks since they have Russell/ Crabbe .And also rumored to be in the running for Carmelo Anothony expirer to gets some more picks from OKC.

Brooklyn is where they're at because of their own incompetence. Nothing random about it.

The current front office from the GM on down was not the one that made the Celtics deal and started last year. I think he’s done pretty damn well considering the circumstances

You know what the hell I was referring to.

Sean Marks and Atkinson weren't there ( although the Russian was) for those decisions. They are slowly trying to dig the Nets out of this mess.

Ownership plays as a huge role too.

How much of that deal was ownership looking to open their new arena in Brooklyn with a "bang"?


They brought in Jay-Z and everything to market that team.


I'm sure they'll have better decision makers going forward as it appears ownership may have learned their lesson. Kind of the anti-Dolan who never really learned any lessons.

Just saying you can change everyone out and shitty ownership can negate the FO if they want.
