[quote]The bottom line is that the team needs a point whether through free agency or Dyson's development. I would like to see if Herb can play the point. I didn't realize thar he often quarterbacked Bama's offense. Herb being the point would solve lots if issues.[/quote] JMO...Dyson is key to ...
[quote]Good luck. The Mavs have the 2 best players in the series and will dominate the boards, whether porzingas plays or not.[/quote] OK...maybe I read it wrong and Vegas has the Mavs as a 2/1 favorite to win the Finals instead of the Celtics....
[quote]I'm going the other way. Mavs in 6. The Celtics haven't played anyone good yet. Miami without Butler. Cleveland without Mitchell. Indiana without Haliburton.[/quote] Celtics have definitely had the mother of all "cakewalks" so far. I'm just waiting to make sure Porz is available before bet...
[quote] quote: Celtics terrible matchup for Mavs. White and Holiday (both just a notch below Herb on defensive end) will slow down Luka and Kyrie No one will slow down Luka.[/quote] JMO...I think Celtics will end up around 2/1 favorites by Vegas to win this series vs the Mavs. Mavs are FAR f...
Celtics terrible matchup for Mavs. White and Holiday (both just a notch below Herb on defensive end) will slow down Luka and Kyrie...rest of Celtics far better than rest of Mavs. I see no way for Mavs to win this series....
[quote]Nahhh, you send Herb out if you have to to get a superstar The only truly untouchable player we have is Zion[/quote] Yep...nobody is "untouchable", not even Herb (or Zion)...
"Whatever you guys think about Herb right now, we're all gonna luv him in a coupla years, and wonder how in the world he didn't go earlier, in the 1st round. Hide & watch, it'll happen...." (from 8/16/2021) Sometimes...I luv to go back and read some of those early posts on the Herbster....

Might be time for Nuggets to do a bit of "adjusting" to their roster. Could we use Michael Porter, Jr? Gotta feelin' Nuggets wouldn't mind moving him on down the road...but I doubt they would be interested in someone like BI so...?...
[quote] Does it matter if you are fourth or fifth in all defense team voting? You’re still on the first team [/quote] Nope...but the point of my post was trying to form an opinion on whether or not Herb would make 1st team all-defense. Before this vote result on DPOY...I woulda had Herb at 50/50...
[quote] He was the best non shot blocker essentially in this vote . Pretty solid place to be[/quote] JMO: Should indicate Herb will make 1st team all-defense. I'd guess he will end up 4th in overall voting for all-defensive team. Some voters will probably NOT want to vote for 4 or 5 "Centers" on...

It's the NBA...things have a way of changing when they need to...I'm goin' out on a limb by predicting the Nuggets will shoot a few more than 4 free throws in the 2nd half. Then again...maybe not...we'll see....

Davis messed up by deciding he didn't wanna call 2nd foul on KAT earlly 1st period...set the tone...and it's been just a tad physical from then on. ...

Can't blame Wolves...refs not calling anything...and probably won't...until a fight breaks out...which should be any minute now....

re: What IS BI's market value

Posted by Dinky Mulberry on 4/28/24 at 7:50 pm
Another way to look at it is...knowing all we know about BI's overall game & his expected pay for the next few years... IF...BI was out there on the market & not currently a member of the Pels...WHAT would we be willing to offer in a trade...to get him to join the Pels? Be honest with your answ...
[quote]Dinky was probably right in hindsight. They should have intentionally lost our game. I think they can beat almost anyone in the West other than Denver.[/quote] Yep...could have easily tanked that last game vs Pels by claiming AD's back injury at end of previous game with us was acting up. ...
MUST see what Daniels can do. Next season should tell us. Just run him out there as a starter and see what happens. If he can't handle it on the offensive end...worst case...you can always just stick him in the corner where he shot 39.2% this season. We DESPERATELYT need another elite defender to he...
[quote] quote: sure that may work over the span of 82 games in the regular season. It's the style that will produce the most success when you have 4 below avg defenders in your starting lineup over the course of a season. And it worked. But you can't change that style entirely once the play...
[quote]6. We need to seek SGA out on defense and make him work.[/quote] Very good info. It's hard to "hunt" SGA when he's on defense...mainly because they are gonna put him on Herb and we currently have Herb spending nearly all his time standing in the corner. One of the problems with ANY "dedica...
