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

Lol. Who would they give up for him?

Also, Wilson Chandler wants out too. Now that's a dude who would have a significant impact on a team. Thought the Knicks should have never got rid of him.

Unless the cavs giving up love the salaries don't match
 
Warriors about to run the Clippers out the gym again

Wizards win again. I wouldnt be shocked if the Wizards snatched the #1 spot in the East sooner or later. Which is cool with me. If my Bulls make the 8th seed...id rather us play the Wizards than the Cavs (because of the matchups).

Also, the West conference is no longer the dominate conference. There was a time when the West was 5-6 teams strong. U had to win at LEAST 50 games just to get a 8 spot....but now the West is looking weaker and weaker. Durant going to GS was one thing that made it weaker....but also the talent just aint there like it used to be.

I got a feeling that as soon as the start increasing the pay of some of the guys who havent gotten raises, the league will be even weaker.

Oh wellz......
I think wizards will her 2nd seed not 1st; i do think they are the 2nd best team in the east and can win a couple of games against cavs; don't think they can beat them though...The West is 151-124 (.549) against the East in interconference games after going 12-9 last week.
 
Chandler making about 11 mil and Mudiay about 6. They can trade Shump straight up if they wanted.

Tim Jr going off

Edit: Not both, just one of them for Shump straight up

Why would anyone do that? lol
Who's going to trade for him and for what reason and how does he help or make sense to a team?

I would trade Shump for Chandler since he's requesting a trade. Chandler allows LeBron to play the three and also brings points and rebounds.

Once JR comes back, Shump's role will decrease so you might as well get something worthwhile for him.

For Denver they get a young vet to play alongside a young group. I think they want to make Will Barton their point so with Murray at the 2 and Shump at the three, that's a nice core at the wings.

Nah.
Shump doesn't do anything for Denver. Nothing at all. They have no actual trade assets like that shump def being on the lower rung of those. anybody trading for shump straight up is just trying to help the cavs out- which is OK - but we gotta call it what it is.

Yeah..
Shump brings great defense and has a better overall game then he shows in Cleveland because he doesn't have in the ball in his hands as much as he did with the Knicks. Give him an expanded role and you'll see Shump's full game.
 
Bulls and 76's are discussing a Okafor trade. A trade is in Okafor best interest. He needs a fresh start. He's a afterthought in Philly. He needs to be around some vets who will hold him accountable for not defending and not working on the boards. He also needs to expand his game on the perimeter.

Where do you think he fits in best?

Ship him to PHX. Philly has a lot of leverage. He's still a mystery. So they'll get a good deal. Or they should.

Man if Shum stay playing at the level he's been, JR is coming off that pine.

The Cavs don't need Chandler they need someone to keep Lebron from playing the backup as much.

Chandler can be Bron's backup as well. As good as Shump is playing, he's still not as good of a scorer as JR..yet
 
Happy to hear Jalen Rose on Countdown check Sage Steele for her immigration tweet...

but still kept it civil.

Kareem REALLY disappointed me though.

That was all on Dolan. He forced Donnie Walsh to make that trade. Knick never should've had to gut their team to get Melo. He would've came in the offseason. That would've been a killer squad too:smh:

Send him to Dallas. Carlisle will hold him accountable to play some defense and they need help at C badly too

That ninja ain't worried about his backup, he trying to stop being a backup....:lol:

I'm mean I like chandler game and shit but Shumpert, Kyrie and Bron handle the pg duties.

Shumpert offense been click and his defense is at a high level as we speak.
Also don't act like Shumpert ain't in the final minutes closing out games.

Depend on matchups(when they're at full strength)

Kyrie
Shump
Jr
Bron
TT/Love

This was before Shum found his offensive touch.

Mosgov, Chandler and Gallineri with Melo would have been a problem

he does look bigger but do you think it affected his quickness.

It doesn't seem to have hurt his quickness or leaping ability but he should probably lose that weight cuz it serves no purpose and carrying extra weight wears down those big guys over time

I have never seen him with a gut out there he could stand to lose 20 pounds

True but I don't know about that frontline, as far as movement. Dirk, Barnes and Okafor. They're looking OK right now, whopping POR's ass on the road. Keep that small lineup going.:dunno:
