Could see us trading Hart and Ingram for Beal.

Don’t know if we’d still be able to get a FA in the summer though

Want Beal but I'm not sure we have the assets.

well jesus, it's about time

by Art Morte Mon Nov 19, 2018 6:26 pm

Wall isn't moving with his contract and Beal, well, I don't know does it make sense to trade him, they'd need a starting caliber SG in return and that's Beal. Unless they're looking to tank and just trade him for picks.

I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if they just blow it up and tank tbh, a potential future where both Beal and Wall are gone isn't something I'd be very surprised by.

Why exactly aren't Wizards going anywhere? That roster is good, what's wrong, haven't watched them...

Chemistry issues, they hate each other and don't play well together.

There's more to it but that's the general jist of it.

They should trade for Kanter imo

If Wall moves I'll eat my shorts. He's on a superstar contract without being a superstar. I think 100% of the world's population knew that Wall was gonna Wizard when he signed that contract. Beal is more interesting. They could trade him for picks. Boston comes to mind...

You underestimate how stupid some front offices are.

by Art Morte Mon Nov 19, 2018 8:40 pm

I don't underestimate by 20 mill a year, though.

Randle with a triple double in 24 minutes Proud

Love having him on my fantasy team.

Just wish he got more minutes lol

Dude is crazy efficient and good in the minutes he has though

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Nov 20, 2018 4:04 am

He usually gets quite a lot as long as he's playing well.

Wasn't necessary tonight as they played in garbage time for about 6 minutes lol.

by Vibe Tue Nov 20, 2018 6:55 am

Realdealicans returning to their rightful place by easily disposing of formidable Spurs

Rumours that Pelicans want to offer Randle, Hill and a first round pick to Wizards for Porter Jr. lmaoo

by CBarca Tue Nov 20, 2018 1:20 pm

Source? Kevin O'Connor? Seemed to me he was just bullshitting a deal.

No way they're going to give up that much for an ok player on an overpaid contract.

@Mole he's averaging 25.6 mins right now. It's not bad at all, but I do wish he was around the 30ish. Maybe it will go up over the season. He's a beast.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Nov 20, 2018 2:00 pm

Kevin O'Connor said that, he doesn't know anything.

It's a bit of a hipster choice, but Siakam is my favourite player from Raptors. Highly spectacular player and since the first match of the season he earned a lot of confidence.

Btw i don't understand the jersey set up in NBA. At home they usually wear white but some teams don't. Away they wear a color jersey but sometimes a white jersey, sometimes an alternate. Is there a logic behind that or they just don't care about it ?

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Wed Nov 21, 2018 5:56 pm

Looking forward to our game with Philly tonight even if i expect to lose.

Embiid and Davis should be fun.

by CBarca Wed Nov 21, 2018 6:28 pm

Davis >>>

Look out for the refs giving Embiid a billion free throws imo.

I agree he should probably be top 3 in amount of FT shots (he gets fouled a lot), but whenever I watch it it's a bit ridiculous.

Then again I guess all the big stars tend to get those superstar calls.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Wed Nov 21, 2018 7:42 pm

Davis got 21 free throws against Denver lol, not Embiid's fault people constantly foul him.

I find the complaining about free throws funny, if you don't like it don't foul them.

by Art Morte Wed Nov 21, 2018 8:29 pm

Defenders should stay on the ground when defending Embiid in the paint, too often you see a guy jumping up when he's about to shoot (or fake) and that's when referees call a foul if there's even a small contact. You're rarely going to block him anyway, so just stay on the ground and make his shot as difficult as you can, if he scores he scores.

Will try to stay up for the Phillycans game tonight.

by CBarca Wed Nov 21, 2018 9:59 pm

I mean, yeah I've said he should be among the top in the league and he earns most of them

As far as I've watched, I haven't seen another player get as many soft calls this season. I'm just saying I think there are a fair number of questionable calls. He sells it well though.

by Warrior Wed Nov 21, 2018 10:20 pm

Lowry expected to rest tonight ? Or play less minutes than usual ? He got a minor ankle injury and Hawks suck penisio, they are 3-14 lol

Btw the schedule makes no sense this week, all because of Thanksgiving. NHL is in the same situation, no games on thursday, there is only US-football as sport tomorrow. Never understood how it's such a big deal, for us it's in mid-october and literally no one cares.

by CBarca Wed Nov 21, 2018 11:18 pm

Tradition. Thanksgiving football is a traditions as old as the NFL itself (might be an exaggeration but not by much)

by CBarca Wed Nov 21, 2018 11:21 pm

Apologies, apparently Thanksgiving football goes back to 1876, so way before the NFL
