The Official Dwayne Wade <<<<<< you thread

Apparently Lakers can extend Deng for 3 years this summer without anymore guaranteed money. Stretch him and then pay him for 3.3m for 10 years and release him.

This will probably happen tbh. Then we can sign two max players and keep the young core.

I wish Lowry played like this more often. His defence is always there it’s just his decision making and shot selection offensively that can be so up and down.

At this level, this is probably the best team the Raptors have ever had. The bench plays so well together. The defence is there. CJ Miles is such a good fit, what that human garbage Demaree Carroll was supposed to be.

Mole, sort your team out

Once again god damn awful referees.

So tired of Lakers not getting any calls from the refs. Why are Sixers getting superstar calls... my god

At the start of the 4th...

Lakers have 91 FGA

Sixers have 63 FGA

And we only lead by 1

God damn Luke is horrible...

Playing the same lineup for 20 minutes straight has never ever *bleep* worked...

Second game we lose because of his f'ing shit...

46-15-7-7

Jesus *bleep* Christ.

He was incredible.

But also, that feel when your coach plays Julius Randle at Center against Embiid for 20 straight minutes.

Mole wtf why are you ignoring me

I looooove how Kuzma went at Embiid anyway
what a player

His defense is really lacking. But I don't know if there's a better scorer currently in this draft. He's so versatile.

What do you guys think of Simmons left hand/right hand shooting tendencies?

It's kind of weird. But it looks fine. He needs a couple of seasons to fix his shooting though.

He's gonna be completely unplayable if he gets a decent shot. I was so high on him last year and still hate that the College rule is a thing. Else he'd be a Laker... Him or Towns at least.

Pretty much agree. He seems adamant on shooting the long range shots with his left. So he think he should just work out on which hand to shoot based on his lane drives when going for layups, runners or hook shots.

he tends to get his body in awkward positions when he is most suited to go for a lefty finish at the rim, but chooses to go with his right hand instead.

He hasn't really shot yet though. He only has attempted full court buzzer beaters, which are all his 3pt attempts.

Read on reddit that he's already attempted more full court shots than Kevin Durant in his career
Because Durant always waits until the buzzer goes off until he shoots.

Yea true true. Was more really referring to his pull-up midrange jumpers when I said long range shots

Sorry brah what do you want?

Lowry for Middleton?

Oh right, nah with Batum back I don't need another small forward.

4-0 since Bledsoe joined (including against Spurs, Grizzlies, Pistons, all very decent teams) and this isn't even close to his final form yet.

Henson and Thon are looking better

Team still needs to develop and Bledsoe needs to be properly integrated/come into his own form, but things are looking up.

U N D E F E A T E D in the Bledsoe era

Freeza pls respond.

I think I have to backtrack about Ingram @freeza, I'm liking what I see from him these days. Not just the stat line but he's becoming a much bigger impact player and he can be a lethal scorer. I would love to see him average 18-20 points this year, not sure if it will happen.

The Sixers have to make some of the worst turnovers of all time. They're young so they'll adjust.

@cbarca, Wolves aren't being fraudulent currently

Warriors to beat the Celtics tonight

Great Leader Sprucenuce wrote:Oh right, nah with Batum back I don't need another small forward.

look at it this way.

He isn't giving you the value that his draft pick value predicted. You wanted to get rid of Lowry anyway, and his shooting percentage really isn't improving that much. He seems to be bricking a lot of 3 pt shots. And he is damn wasteful on the ball as well.
What you would get from Middleton is a sure fire 3 point shot maker, and someone that will boost your rebound numbers as well as I see that is a category you struggle with. Middleton has been quite efficient as well this season, which really shouldn't be a surprise because the guy can shoot, we know that by now. And he is a SG before SF. He is better and provides better numbers than your other players in that position which is Jaylen Brown and Batum.

Only reason I really want Lowry is to spike up my assists, a category which you seem to have finely covered. I can deal with those 10-20 pts he is producing every game because I have lots more scorers.

It's a win-win for both of us. You can inspect the numbers yourself.

Freeza pls respond.

He’s shot mentally. Think all the stuff surrounding him is too much at the moment. He was great the first ten games aside from the shooting. He’s had two horrible games without effort now. We need a sports psychologist on it.

@luca

Ingram is incredible really. And he’s so god damn young. Gets to the rim at will. Just imagine once he bulks more.

Hire me

Agreed with Luca on Ingram, he's been consistently Lakers best player along with Kuzma when I watch.
