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

Knee injuries are the worst, they keep coming back.

Impressive showing by the Pacers last night, strong defense and cohesion. They remind me a bit of Blazers by how the team is built.

What a duo John Collins and Doncic would be man

Apparently Doncic became the youngest ever player to post a 30-point triple-double.

Spoiler:

It pisses me off so much that three teams passed on him. It's such a fucking ridiculous thing to do...

Anthony Davis trade request

Stay safe mole

I'm happy about it actually, it's been obvious for weeks we needed to become sellers and this allows the franchise to no longer delude themselves.

It's honestly the best thing that could happen that AD and Rich Paul (i imagine) has forced the Franchises hand so we all know where everyone stands.

With that said i don't particularly expect a trade to happen before the deadline, it's not in the best interests of the franchise to trade him until Boston can get involved.

We signed Papiss Cisse not Sow

Besides that's not what fucked everything up, also i refuse to believe the Lakers crap offers can't be outbid by multiple teams.

No one gives a shit about Ball and Ingram lol.

I suppose trading AD could work out the best for both him and New Orleans. They would need to become something like a 0.667 team for the rest of the season to make the playoffs. Cash in on him and set the sights on next season, I guess.

Really don't know what the Lakers could offer, though, if that's his preferred destination.

Not for a franchise player you haven't.

You might as well delete the franchise from existence if you accept that lol.

Luckily Woj has said we have no interest in what the Lakers have to offer.

Like i said there's multiple teams who can offer better deals, without ignoring the Boston stuff we have to wait and see who gets the no 1 pick.

Would actually like it though, just to see Freeza's reaction when losing his beloved duo.

Executive seems to think Kuzma is our best young player, so he’s going to be in it.

Lonzo is the only one I’d want to keep at any cost.

3 first unprotected, Kuzma, Hart, Ingram, KCP, Wagner, Zubac

Don’t think we can give more than that.

The biggest issue the Lakers have is their picks are worthless to us.

Well that and none of their players are particularly sure fire all stars.

If you're looking to trade a franchise player you want at least 1 of 3 things.

All star, potential star or high draft picks. Lakers can't really offer any of the above.

Potential star we have, but no one wants to bet on potential in this case. At least not to that extent.

It’s just to see any team giving up a huge deal to Pels or making a better offer than us right now.

The draft picks still have value. This year’s pick might even be a lottery pick.

Acquiring 2-3 first rounders is important for Pels who can now freely tank. They’ll have a good set of talent in no time.

Hope it happens so I can finally have a second team to watch. I think Lonzo would be an all star under Gentry, but hope he stays.

Seeing these big stars requesting trades to bigger markets makes me appreciate Harden all the more

Texas is a massive market lol.

Nah if you have Lebron and AD you're picks will be late firsts lol.

Not really worth it from our point of view, especially when you consider Boston has Memphis 2021 pick.

Yeah wtf is that

Houston is a huge market. It’s in the top 10.

Boston basically lost all their picks of value at this point.

What Boston trade do you actually think they’d offer to you?

El Gunner wrote:Apparently Boston are restricted because they can't have Irving and AD on the same team for this season because of some designated player contract thing or whatever.

Yes until the summer, but unless someone blows us away he's not being traded to the summer.

You don't think Memphis 2021 pick is of value? Unless JJJ turns into a top 5 player somehow in 18 months that will be a very high pick.

Guess I’m too high on JJJ then. I’m not sure if the pick is going to be better than 12-14 range.

I think JJJ is going to be a sure fire hall of famer. He’s by far the best all round player this draft.
