re: Latt looking like he will return to team
Posted by ned nederlander on 5/20/24 at 12:51 pm
I hope we keep him. With Latt, our secondary could be a legit strength of the team and really help win some games.
And admittedly not understanding the cap implications, I hope we wait till TC or in season to trade Lattimore. Similar the saints bringing in guys like Eli Apple to try and solve a ...

[quote]I think the reason Hamas did not agree to the cease fire is because all of the hostages are dead. They have nothing with which to bargain.[/quote]
The bigger reason is Hamas doesn’t exist to govern Gaza or to provide for the well being of Gazans.
It exists to wage war against Israel ...

Assuming Denver holds on, we are in for a real treat of prime Jokic vs prime Doncic in a playoff series, each with comparable supporting casts.
Was a shame we never got prime Kobe vs prime lebron in the playoffs, or prime Durant vs prime lebron when the respective rosters were relatively balance...

Luka’s career numbers speak for themselves. Currently 28.7, 8.7, 8.3.
Lebron’s career averages are 27.1, 7.5, 7.4.
Luka needs to start playing more than 70 games a year to win a few MVPs and add a couple of rings, but Luka’s career is off to an incredible start.
He should also consider movi...

OKC was probably the 5-6th best team in the west (they lose to a healthy nuggets, Twolves, mavs, and probably lakers and clippers), and one of the worst western conference 1 seeds of the last 20 years. ...

At some point in this series Kyrie is going to have to show up in a big way offensively for Dallas to advance - I think. Even just one great quarter would probably be enough to carry Dallas across the finish line with the way Luca is playing...
