Wizards haven't had a 50 win season in 40+ years. Even the Hornicans can boast one of those.

Jonas Valanciunas


Am I wrong for likeing this piece? I guess The drawback is that he’s on an expiring contract, but 17.1/12.5 and he shoots pretty decent if rarely from 3.

Teams are salivating at his potential because of his size and passing which is elite.


Take the reasons Lonzo Ball hasn't lived up to his draft hype and expand on that with Giddey not being half the athlete and not nearly the ball handler Lonzo is and it's really difficult understanding the hype behind Giddey.

Is there anyway we make a run at lamello ball with this cap space because Lonzo and him want to play together

No, really going to miss JV. One of the most underrated players in the league.

Not really. We understand that our prime is still a couple years away and are now in a really good position to find the 3rd star to put with Ja and JJJ with the 10th this year and 3 1sts next year.

Love JV, but it's highly unlikely we would've resigned him after this season. Adams is no doubt a downgrade but JV will get a bigger deal next year.

Even if you love Giddey, how is he the guy when you have a ball dominant guy like Ja?

Sounds like another Ben Simmons


simmons became the warning.

I will be shocked if memphis goes with giddey.
they dont need a point guard who cant shoot. morant has that down pat.

pels clearing up cap space for the zion super max sign/trade


Pels have Zion’s Bird rights. They can go over the cap to resign him if they keep him or trade him. It would be the other teams that would have to free up cap room in order to be able to trade for zion.

I don't want Giddey either but Morant's shooting improved tremendously this past year. If he keeps improving it's going to be trouble for the league

Or Chris comes home


If this isn't a classic Louisiana sports fan then I don't know what in the hell else is.

Why would you want him to come home?

for the goddamn feels?

Well, how do you think his Suns teammates feel when the going got tough and he got even softer, begging for the fouls in a championship series.

That's embarrassing, and he doesn't ever deserve a ring for trying to win it all that way.

give me a single pro in "Chris returning home".
