he had JUST finished his dream home he thought he was going to retire in when when he was traded. His kids never followed him.

I was wondering is the divorce still going on...or has he reconciled?
Don’t feel too bad for him, Dame requested the trade and wanted to go to Miami.

Portland and Miami couldn’t get the deal done and the Bucks stepped in.
 

Jeff Teague Picks Curry Over Magic in GOAT PG Debate.Stephen Curry and Magic Johnson are universally praised as two of the greatest point guards in NBA history. But former NBA guard Jeff Teague believes there's a clear No. 1.On a recent episode of the Club 520 Podcast, Teague boldly declared Curry as the greatest point guard of all time, even suggesting Bleacher Report swap their rankings of Magic (No. 4) and Curry (No. 9)."I know Magic saved the league… him and Larry Bird saved the NBA, I get it," Teague said. "But Steph saved everybody."Teague doubled down by pointing to Curry’s impact at just 6-foot-3 compared to Magic’s 6-foot-9 frame. “Magic was the better player because he could’ve played center. But what did Steph do at his size? Unreal.”The conversation even shifted to a hypothetical 1-on-1 matchup—one Teague didn’t hesitate on:"Have you ever seen Magic Johnson move? He had no chance in hell guarding Steph Curry."While fans and analysts continue to debate the GOAT point guard conversation, it’s clear that both legends changed basketball forever.Magic redefined the position with his size and flair, turning the Lakers into the face of “Showtime” and winning five rings.Curry revolutionized the game with his range and quickness, unlocking a new era of pace and space, and influencing an entire generation.One dominated with no-look passes, the other, with no doubt threes.Either way, they're both generational icons. The debate? That’s just part of the fun.

I think its very hard to compare different generations and eras of basketball players; im not mad at anyone taking either as the greatest pg; i still have Magic as 1; as long as folks have steph top 10; well thats all that matters to me...
 
Shit he had to or there was gonna be some cussing and crying with the way they started to give the game away with 3 minutes left.
We got some cuts coming up. Looking back on it..I'm not sure why we signed Spencer Dinwiddie but we do need more veterans on the team. One of the biggest issues i had is that while Lamelo has been great, he hasn't had a veteran guard on the team to mentor him. I remember when Ramon Sessions was here, he helped a great deal with our young guards IMO. He was also productive coming off the bench. I'm fine with Kalkbrenner and Plumlee, and I would even try Diabate at Center in spurts. I'm not saying we are OKC but we have good depth and with Colin Sexton and Tre Mann re-signing, we shouldn't fall apart when LaMelo ends up on his annual sabatical of games missed due to injury. :yes: East is wide open so why not us?
