[quote]Makes many of us average dudes realize we are no match to rich dudes when it comes to money. Many women migrate towards money when giving the chance.[/quote] The amount of money is absurd. He probably could have got to sleep with her for 5K. They were desperate and had lost everything.....

[quote]He wasn’t remotely close this year. [/quote] He was as close as Murray was. There was a big media push when I looked it up. BTW, I didn't realize that Cam Thomas had that good of a year, putting up over 22ppg.. [quote]Yes he had 42 points but an all star player is about consistency....

[quote]You’re predicting Coby White after one good season and 4 trashy ones to be an all star[/quote] Trashy? He averaged 15ppg his 2nd season. He had a solid first 2 seasons, for a developing player. But he got sidetracked for the past 2 years by team mismanagement and injury. A lot of players ...

White is also ascending. Ingram has plateued, if not started to decline. It's like people can't project players. They want all finished products. Is it better to get a guy whose been an all-star or one who's going to become one? Also, how is Vucevic trash? He played in over 70 games, over 34m...

I did not. Out was Ingram, 2 1st (2025 and 2027), Nance and Daniels. In was White, Vucevic and Reed. We keep our pick this year and the Lakers next year. We have money to resign Murphy, plus an exception (10M+) for a role player. All while not being a tax team. It's the most realisti...

[quote]That's just not a team where a potential BI deal is viable for White, I just don't see the path.[/quote] I put together a trade that netted us both White and Vucevic (who combined make less than Ingram). It kept us under the tax and we kept most of your toung talent, except Daniels. Everyb...
Young is the face and foundation of the Hawks. He's carried the team for 5 years. Moving him will be a seismic event in the city. His name and likeness is everywhere, i see it almost everyday. Definitely a polarizing figure, but he sells tickets and he's had huge moments in big games. I get that he ...

What if they did trade Davis? Davis/Hachimura for Young/Capella. Works in the trade machine.....
[quote]Why can’t Lebron just let his son go to college and enjoy his life at a normal pace? The kid could become an NBA player in time but he clearly isn’t right now. This is pathetic.[/quote] I kind of get it. Going now, he'll get drafted and get to play some his 1st year. I don't imagine he'll ...
He has never played football and wasn't allowed. He's never hit or been hit. It would take years for him to convert and train for the role. It's not out of the realm of possibility. He is going to be out of the league in 2-3 seasons (when he's around 22). He could always go back to school and try it...
I love snipers. [quote]So DD needs a change of scenery after basically a year and half. White wasn’t anything special and was considered trade fodder for a few years until he broke out in year 5 [/quote] In a word, yes. That's mostly what I said. But, White was emerging as a player, until...

re: NBA Draft Lottory

If I'm the Hawks, I reach out to the Spurs and see if I can move back from the 1st pick. I figure they will want to pair one of the French guys with Wemby. Should be able to get #4 and #8, plus maybe get your 1st back for next year. ...
[quote]So basically a 4/140 extension is what I would offer[/quote] If you keep Ingram, you have to trade Murphy. Can't keep, pay and play both. Plus 4 years and he still hasnt figured it out with Zion. So I wouldn't keep him, even on a super low deal.....
[quote]You apparently haven’t seen Suggs play since his rookie season[/quote] I don't think people know how to project players progressions or how they might evolve in the proper systems/situations. Brunson is an easy and extreme example. But if you can find that ascending piece and put them...
[quote]Hes had 4 crappy seasons and 1 really good one- that is not equal to emerging star. [/quote] Situations matter. He was top 5 in ROY and had a solid 2nd season. Then was made a bench player the next two years and took a step back. He was a borderline all-star this past season at 23 years ol...
[quote]People forget he recently turned 26. He’s not in his prime. [/quote] 5 straight all-star selections and top 6 in MVP voting 3 years in a row. He scored 30ppg last year and you don't he's hit his prime yet?...
[quote]I really think he’s purposefully trolling. [/quote] Yeah, that just comes off as condescending. I look at the landscape and judge off past trades to come up with compensation. Honestly those 5 picks are shite. The Sixers pick is 16 this year. Our pick next year would be in the 20's. Fu...
