Official NBA 2016-2017 Thread - 30 teams, 1 goal. 2 weeks left, so much can happen!!

Dude Im glad we got a 1st rounder for him. Fuck Bogut but Anderson is a decent player. Noel is gonna ask for big money man... Thats why we moved him. One dimensional ass Dude...

He can defend and block. Can rebound good. You gotta pay for that. Just where we are at in this league. I'm not convinced he's done developing either. I like Justin Anderson game. His peak might be 6th man off the bench. Carlisle can't develop these wings and guards. His athleticism is crazy. Develop that consistent corner 3 and he should be ok.

Overall may end up being a good trade for both squads. Good luck fam :cheers:

Good scoop for Dallas. Cuban making good on his words to give Dirk that final push. I think he sticks it out for another season. Especially if they make the playoffs.
 
and if ainge doesn't offer up a 1st round pick to the pacers for paul george he's officially the dumbest fucking gm in the nba ahead of divac. you got a #2 seed and you can add paul george for an unknown prospect you probably going to fuck up judging by your success ratio with draft picks?

get that shit done like now

and i don't know why washington isn't on the phone for drummond. he might even be a better fit than cousins. he ain't shooting no 3's he can finish whatever you toss at him and wall is a pass 1st point guard. he ACTUALLY HAS POST MOVES and he spaces the floor for beal and everybody else out on the wing cause you can't let him operate down there solo.

but that's too much like right.
 
are you going to let these 1st rounders play next year or devise a plan to tank 1 more time for a future draft
cause its almost shit or get off the pot time
This shit is ridiculous Bills. For all this shit we could have kept Sam Hinkie. Simmons and Embiid can play right now. Eventually I believe Adam Silver is gonna step in and threaten to take away the team from Josh Harris. I really do.

yea cause this shit is like hoarding at this point.
you're going to tank so much you're going to miss the window on winning with talent that's cheap and have to resign or NEVER even play these dudes and trade em like you bout to do okafor and just did noel
 
Murphy: Justin Anderson is the key to the Sixers' deal



Forget the first-round draft pick the Sixers will reportedly receive from the Mavericks in exchange for Nerlens Noel. The success of the deal will very likely hinge on the development of 23-year-old shooting guard Justin Anderson, who has spent his first couple of seasons near the back of the Mavericks rotation.


In October, an NBA scout gave a glowing review of Anderson to Sports Illustrated, opining that he considered the second-year guard to be “almost as good a player as Harrison Barnes,” the former Golden State Warrior whom the Mavericks had signed to a big free-agent contract over the offseason.

“Justin Anderson is gonna be good. I wonder how long of a leash [coach Rick] Carlisle will have with him. Rick prefers to play two guards, two smaller guards who are good pick-and-roll players, and that's not Justin. … I actually think Justin Anderson is almost as good a player as Harrison Barnes. Maybe not quite as good as a scorer, but rebounding, shot-blocking, he'll be a decent shooter this year. He'll be a solid piece of their rotation.”


Anderson, the No. 21 overall pick in the 2015 draft out of Virginia, had had a limited role in the Mavs’ rotation this season, averaging 13.9 minutes per game after averaging 11.8 as a rookie. He shot 26.5 percent from three-point range as a rookie, and entered Thursday shooting 30.3 percent this season (37 for 122).

In December, ESPN ran a story on Anderson’s regression. Some observations from staff writer Tim McMahon:

“Anderson’s ceiling is to be a bouncier version of [Jae] Crowder, who has emerged as an excellent glue guy with the Boston Celtics. Like Crowder, the 6-foot-6, 228-pound Anderson is a powerfully built wing with the physical tools to be a ferocious defender.


“He’s very limited as an offensive player -- his strength is his finishing ability, never mind his blooper miss late in Saturday’s loss -- and he often looks tentative and lost on that end of the floor.”

And with rising ticket prices it's bad for business overall. How in the fuck is Simmons foot fully healed them 3 weeks later it's not? Get the fuck outta here with this bullshit. Silver will step in and tell the Sixers to cut the shit or lose a 1st round pick or take the team away from Harris completely watch.

I think Anderson can be something solid at least but Carlisle had the leash on too tight and I don't know if Philly was the right spot either

I don't know wtf they doing up there

Yeah man y'all oding on the tanking. Y'all can't do it after this year. Y'all squad should be good enough.

Yeah man this shit is insane now. Especially with Sacramento trading Cousins. We should have the Number 2-4 pick swapping with them. No need for it. Put Embiid and Simmons on the court NOW!!!

Sounds like we traded one Nerlens for another. :smh: Only thing I can think of is Noel was asking for too much money so we said, fuck it, get what you can for him.

I think we gonna regret trading Anderson like we do Jae Crowder.....I think Anderson is more talented. But at least this time we got a young guy on return.

cause even when they on the floor together they still gotta learn how to win and in the nba that takes 2 or 3 seasons.

Yeah since he is about to be a RFA they probably realized he was gone cuz teams with money to blow we're going to offer nice cash.

Mavs gonna pay him nothing to lose

Hard to regret it if the coach won't let him play

Even Crowder he goes to Boston and is the unquestioned starter Rick was playing with his minutes

If anything we need to trade Carlisle

Oh no I don't think the fans will regret it. I mean the front office. Nothing we can do about this dude not developing talent. People claim he's a great coach but you not great if you can't win with young talent or develop it. I wish they can sucker teams to take all of our guys. Just get draft picks. Deron, Wesley and the rest of them can go. Anyone not named Harrison Barnes can go.
 
Young shooting guard, nice Defender, nice stroke. Wasn't really getting minutes and Dallas for some reason, but I believe with the style of play we play especially when Simmons please, he's going to be a nice addition.
I think he's gonna get lost in y'all rotation. He lacks consistency. He's hustle and defense at this point and athleticism. Like I said he can stay on the court in this league if he develops that corner 3. I think he's going to be one of those guys that puts up stats for bad teams then gets on a team with other options and is a reserve. Like Lance Stephenson.
