I get part of the kings point of view even the "we don't need equal value" part, but they still could have done a lot better imo plus I think it's unfair to act like they didn't play apart of the tension with boogie. Better roster moves and never firing Mike Malone n this whole thing could be different

If we can't make the 8th seed now, Alvin Gentry needs to be fired...

The nba isn't about PER or any advanced metrics the NBA is about 5 ? having chemistry and being mature enough to handle a ? season lol. Look at all the people on the leaderboard for those categories. No Golden State or Cleveland players.
Advanced stats are great for sports with larger rosters and more position types like baseball or football. But in basketball ? PER. Wade had a PER in his finals vs Dallas that was better than Jordan does that mean Wade is the goat?
The Pelicans are a below .500 team. Boogie who has issues of his own and lacks maturity is not going to magically make this team a top tier contender. -

Lol bruh I just posted cause I thought it was interesting.
I dont think anybody said the Pelicans were a contender now but Davis and Boogie aint a bad place to start.
I dont even know where you were going on that wade point. PER shows efficiency doesnt mean he was better. -

I'd argue that warriors should stay with javale

That's fine with me if you think so -
I'd argue that warriors should stay with javale
I agree with you. He meshes pretty well with them, this is probably his best season to date. -
The defense suffers with Javale on the court
Constantly out of position, fouling, late to rotate...surprisingly just not a good defender
Zara more consistent and was playing his best ball b4 he went down
Of course you'd know that if you weren't a troll
-
Oh okay man
-
Smh @ me thinking basketball was on when I get home
Sighs -
Oh okay man
Weak ass response, let's hear why you think that ? should remain the starter -

That was moreso a response to the "I wouldn't know that because I'm a troll" which doesn't make sense to me
But uh I don't have any real stock in this.I said it mainly because of pace and a better rim protector in the starting lineup I don't watch warriors games like that so I can't really say much. I might not be right but hey that's fine -
My TL going crazy cuz IT sent out a cryptic emoji eyes tweet (last time he did that we got horford) hopefully a butler deal is finalized

Utah is all-in to keep Gordon Hayward, but they also need to shed some salary before their army of young players ink pricey new deals. They’ve tested the market for Derrick Favors over the last few weeks, according to several league sources; Favors hasn’t been quite the same since coming back from injury, and Utah plays Favors and Rudy Gobert together for only 10 or 12 minutes per game.
Nothing really substantial but I'm a favors fan and I honestly forgot he existed -
LMAO deadspin not holding back
