Cool. I will just RA instead. Good luck.....

The team has a ton of talent. Alot of size and wing depth. Anthony Bennett is playing for them too. It would be odd if he came out of nowhere and elevated them.....

Mocks are all over the place, especially after the top 5. I don't know if guys just want to look smart or if there is any juice to what they are projecting. I was seeing Mann in the top 12, now he is not even being drafted. Wagner went from the teens to 7. Maybe it will start to level out after the ...

No. There are specific boards for certain topics. This is a Political topic and has no bearing on Sports. You are muddling up this board because you can't get attention on the other. It is kind of pathetic.....

Why do people act like the Hawks are a small market? The team is young and unknown. But they could pull huge numbers as they gain popularity and Young is a budding star. The Braves brought huge numbers when they emerged in the early 90s and became America's team. Same with the Warriors during their ...

You are right about that. That is what he has normally done. I don't think they would move Simmons inside the Division though. What if the Kings offered up Fox? Simmons for Fox straight up? ...

I only watched Green a handful of times and I wasn't blown away like everyone else seems to be. Also, it is a complete unknown if the G league is going to help players develop vs going to college. Even that developmental team, which coddled prospects. There was no sense of urgency or anything to los...

No doubt. But that is expected from a Center. They could scheme the ball out of his hands (ala Shaq and Howard) in critical situations. I'd love to see him on another team though and placed in the right situation/system. Maybe a team like the Kings. Put him at Center surrounded by Fox, Heild and...

I still think Simmone is miscast as a PG. He is a freak athlete and a gifted passer. But him playing that position takes a shooter/shot maker off the floor. I don't think Simmons is a SF or a PF either. I believe he is a Center. Almost like a Jokic. Runs the offense through him. He has the heigh...

The Suns are an interesting model. 4 lottery guys (Ayton, Booker, Bridges, Johnson) surrounded by solid vets that all fit and have specific roles. I can't give Paul enough credit, but it's a great situation for all involved. Hopefully people will look at our situation differently and see that is...

[quote]Someone asked you a very simple question earlier, how many players with at least one all star appearance before 25 have retired before 30 because of non major injuries? [/quote] Nobody asked me that. You are lying. You are doing it on purpose for a reason. I would rather not play your gam...

Got to have 2 stars to add a 3rd.....

It is less than 12 years. He is going into his 6th season. That puts him close to halfway through. You are assuming great health, limited injuries and hoping that he still wants to play after banking 200M+ in 10 years. I don't know if you are upset with me or with math.. ...

[quote]Can you tell me what evidence you've used to determine that Ingram will retired before he's 30? [/quote] I can try to run a query on BR. But everything I have ever read shows that the average NBA career is under 5 years. If you shrink that down to guys that have played over 50 games, it j...

[quote]Not sure, I do know we had a multi page back and forth because he was convinced that BI is statistically past his prime and closer to being out of the league than entering it. [/quote] You are totally misquoting me there. I said that Ingram is in his prime now. I believe his prime will la...

I do not care for Ingram. I don't like his game, his demeanor or the massive holes in his game. Everybody can bang the drum about his great stats or him being an "All-Star". But he isn't a leader or a winner and he is a Supermax player. I am sure he would be a great fit somewhere and will have a nic...

The lady is very old and is probably going to pass in the next few years. What is the succession plan? Who gets it and do they want to keep it? ...

[quote]don't waste your breath man. Miami isn't going to trade Bam and the Pels aren't trading BI unless it's for a sure-fire super-star [/quote] What if another team wants Ingram? Let's say GS gets the #6, to go along with the 14th pick they already have. What if they offered.. Wiggins, #6 ...

I like him fine. But he is a back up shooting SF. We have 4 2nd round picks. I believe we can find someone like him and spend money elsewhere.....

It would be a ton. But there is no reason to move him for a couple of years. He will have to wait it out. Perhaps in that time he has a change of heart. But he is too valuable right now. We will be on National TV and get tons of attention due to him. Other teams can stockpile assets for their offers...
