So checking out the Heat, and again, this is based on a four game sample, so there's a bit of apples to oranges when comparing teams at this point. But the Heat seems to be playing a similar brand of ball to us, efficient offence (if we actually make FTs and limit TOs) and clamps on defence...

It's funny because this year it's like Wemby finally figured out he is significantly taller than every one else on the court, and that he should keep the ball high to protect it. he is also crashing the boards, especially offensively, pretty hard. His jumpers are now comfortably over his...

Portland - a nice young team with Wesley and sidy in the roster Mavs - cooper hype Chicago - Tre and zollins Philly - edgecombe OKC - I like watching uncalled hard fouls and people shooting free throws Atlanta - the picks plus want to see if this positionless basketball thing with all that...

Then we are talking about different things. I am talking about trading him for some real help, which to me is a 3-D player or a shooting PF who can defend, you seem to be talking about that help being a high level star. I don't believe any single star is untouchable. If OKC offers their...

Please post.

I think Sochan could slow down Shai to a degree. Players like that you don't expect to really stop, but if a defender can allow the Spurs to not warp their entire defence to that one single player, then it is a success. Like nephew on Lebron in the 14 Finals, Lebron still put up 28.2/7.8/4 on...

I heard a story about some guy meeting Samuel Dalembert while that guy was wearing white pants, I know Sam wasn't a Spurs but that was pretty cool.

Castle is still on his rookie deal so if you were to trade him away, you won't get a player of similar abilities in terms of salary match, unless you trade with a team way under the cap, or find a young player also on a rookie/bargain deal who happens to play the 3/4. I can't find a team like...

Tre "no talent" Jones is averaging 13/8.3/4.3 in 30.3mpg, shooting 52 FG%, 57 3FG %and 75FT% in 3 wins, with a 118.6 ORTG (108 in the league) and 110 DRTG (173 in the league), with a 8.6 NetRtg (120 in the league). Blake "heads down" Wesly is averaging 5.3/3.0/3.5 in 17.2 mpg going 2-2, shooting...

Why can't you admit Sochan actually did a semi decent job on Shai? It's almost hilarious at this point how your hatred for Sochan would just lead to these takes that are biased to the extreme. I don't believe Sochan will be good enough to stop Shai single handedly, and last year there was a...

To be honest that is for Mitch to decide. I know that's a cop out but they are way smarter basketball wise. Once Fox is back Castle doesn't have to be the PG, so he can play off ball as the secondary ball handler, which would work great for him. Not sure why Mitch isn't putting Harper Castle...

Hats off to him so far, like his defensive attention more than anything else, which I think was a bigger problem than his shot selection in the past. A situation where a 4th option is best being a 4th option, and not a 2nd option.

This year's rookie class looking very strong. Cooper, Dylan and Edgecombe all looks like all star level talents, or even more, early on. Knueppel, Tre Johnson, Fears, CMB, Coward, Queen, Kalkbrenner, all looking like regular starter material Sion James, Demin, Maluach, Carter Bryant, Walter...
