Love it

He might be better suited to this showcase non-game than anyone.

I don't really notice who posts what unless the post is goofy. Welcome to the board, it is nice to have a fresh voice and new perspective amongst us. I look forward to your participation here; don't let any bickering and infighting slow you. Some here are like old married couples; they have been around each other for a long time now.

cheers, twocoach. i'm planning to stay above the fray and keep it light, we'll see how long that lasts...

Do you ever attend games at AFH or are you too far away?
A KU grad or a fan by some other connection?

From KS, went to undergrad, hardly ever make it back these days tho. A lot of my fam is in Wichita, which some on here have disparaged, but there’s lots of Jayhawks down there.

IMO, McCollum is going to be great for D'Tae. Opens up perimeter looks for him and can concentrate on what I think might be his best skill: vision/passing.

What am I missing here...

Trade obviously

What a strange trade.

Seems good for Pels, although Josh Hart is relatively ignored he's played really good minutes for them.

But really don't get it for Portland. Especially after letting Gary Trent go and he's playing awesome for Toronto.

Bureaucratic. Maybe getting ready to sell the team.

My bet.

Another ramification is that this could mean that Portland has two lotto picks in 2022 if NOP doesn't make playoffs or win the play-in.

That is around Och territory.

Devonte and CJ could be a fun backcourt to watch. both very good with the ball and off the ball. two playmakers with good vision and shooting. not sure how those 2 will do on defense though lol

Dok's been getting some clock:

Kings receive: DiVincenzo (from Milwaukee), Josh Jackson (from Detroit), Trey Lyles (from Detroit)
Pistons receive: Bagley (from Sacramento)
Clippers receive: Rodney Hood (from Milwaukee), Semi Ojeleye (from Milwaukee)
Bucks receive: Serge Ibaka (from Los Angeles), two second-round picks, cash

Sucks that Jackson is in basketball hell with the Kings now although Detroit hasn't been much better lately.

The Kings are actually making a push for the play-in. Bagley was dead weight. Kings have done good things since the new front office came in. It's not close to the same franchise that drafted Thomas Robinson and Ben McLemore.

"Kings have done good things since the new front office came in."

Guess you didn't see them trade Haliburton and Hield.

40/14/10 tonight

Plus 3 steals
