I'm not laughing or gloating but it's interesting how the narrative has changed. The Bulls were absolutely terrible for letting Thibs go as he was considered one of the brightest new coaches to come in and of course, the Butler trade.

In hindsight, I think Chicago completely won out of both moves. Yikes. What a mess with the T-Wolves. What is crazy is that with what they have in Butler, KAT, and Wigs, it's enough to contend. And if Thibs' system was how I remembered it in Chicago...

Weird how this went.

 

Say it with me Yum. Fuck Thibs

 

That little scuffle on Saturday. Lakers VS Rockets

Ingram got a clear shot of Paul.

 

I was on Rondos side at first but you cant spit on a man

 

Well, I sure could use some of that Thibs-D...cuz, the Bulls right now have no D.

LaVine looks decent so far though.

 

Some thought Rondo didn't spit on purpose but I guess Rondo ain't saying

 

Thibs is a great assistant coach, but as a head coach he does not know how to lead a team. I think once he's gone from Minnesota he'll be back on the bench in an assistant role.

 

Yeah, good point. I think he'd add alot drawing up defensive assignments and etc.

 

 

4 first rounders?!?

 

I wouldn't give up that much for Butler. He doesn't even fit Houston's system very well imo.

The Rockets were within a game of eliminating GS. They just had alot of knucklehead plays in game 6 which costed them. But D'Antoni.....fun and exciting style of basketball (at least during the Phoenix days, not so much now), but his small rotations gets players 1-6 exhausted by the time playoffs roll around. He needs to trust his bench.

 

@ Warriors...

90 points already against the Bulls...and the 1st half is not over.

 

Milwaukee looks great!

 

Bucks only team undefeated now? It was either going to be them or Toronto.


Warriors suck, I hate them, they make basketball no longer exciting. Fuck them, fuck whoever went to that team just to win championships.


Durant is a bish for going
Cousins is a bigger bish

I hope that team splits up next year. Durant needs to go to a team that he can lead

<------ Hater

 

Yup!

Gonna be a good game Thursday against Boston.

 

The Warriors' shooting proficiency is insanity. It's ridiculous.

 

Butler joins Embiid and Simmons in 76ers land: https://www.tsn.ca/report-76ers-acqu...lves-1.1207562

 

Man, what a gong show...what's with both former Bulls -- Rose and then Butler -- going since their star turns...? Weird.

 

Gotta pay for all your sins during the 90's. And WTF Timberwolves. That's twice in 10 years they build a championship caliber roster....for another team.

 

Hey Doomie...as a Heat fan, are you miffed at what the 6ers gave up versus what fell through for your squad? Or you don't want Butler and his drama anyhoo?

 

Some Heat fans didn't think Butler was worth the max contract. I'm not miffed that we couldn't get the deal done but I heard 2 reasons why we didn't close. First Thibs famously pulled out and convinced ownership that they could win with him. However when his value dropped even more, Miami may have wanted more because Josh Richardson's value, in their mind, went up. Wouldn't be surprised if Miami threw in a bad contract to "sweeten" the deal.

Problem is with the contracts we put up the last few years are not as tradable as they thought they'd be. Guess who has the highest payroll in the NBA.

 

Changing of the guard in the NBA now as you know with all roads leading through Golden State.


I would just love to see Chicago becoming relevant again...sure, Zach can score and Carter looks promising but man, that's a horrid team. Is missing Dunn, Lauri, and Portis THAT bad? I guess 3 starters can do that but still...I just see no end to the rebuild nor unsure how they'll match up against the Bucks, Celtics, Raptors, and/or 6ers.

 

The next big shift is where KD goes as rumors are he's leaving GS. But why would he come here? Waiters he was already a teammate of, Josh Richardson is decent, and Whiteside is not a star though he gets paid like one. Unless Riley can broker some miracle of dumping all the contracts but last time he built a super team he still had peak Wade.

 

Why do I think KD will end up in LA if he doesn't re-sign with the Warriors?

 

 

that Lakers wouldn't want KD. First of all, Lebron will say to sign him and Magic will. You're talking about top 3 player in the league. Lakers basically become Warriors meaning they get all the rings. Window is short for Lebron too. If you don't sign KD, you don't keep Lebron and then you're just another team.

This Draymond/KD fight is interesting. Draymond got suspended for last night's game. Supposedly he was heard talking shit to KD about his free agency status and that he told Boogie that KD's a bitch

 

Yah, trouble in paradise for the SF Warriors. From what I'm reading, Green's frustration with Kraft Dinner was actually legit and most teammates felt the same...they just did not quite agree how he did it. But, then again, Draymond is Draymond.

 

So...the MEMEMEME-all-me-melo era in Houston ends.


Seriously, the Rockets thought it would work with him? C'mon...they were dreaming.

 

And respond with a blowout win on the Warriors.

 

Warriors are too busy in-fighting right now. Although, if it came down to a SF-esque fight, my $$$ is on Draymond.

 

Personally, I would find it hilarious if the Warriors signed MEMElo....or he goes to LA so that James can kill him.

 

Melo to LA would be fun too. Mini-banana boat

 

I mean laker fans don’t want KD.

 

Meanwhile, the Bullets are imploding.

 

Not surprised

 

 

Warriors signing ehvreebuddy.

 

It really would be funny if LeBron went to GS.

I also want Beal and Wall traded there too.

 

That's like you selling all your robots...…


It will never happen.

 

Bull fire coach.
