You can pretty much watch any NBA game and find 3&Ds, problem is most of those plays happen due to kick outs from drives and not set plays. There isn't much to practice on. But like I said flare screens help pretty much everyone when done correctly.

That's not high enough to justify the salary he's surely going to command.
Dude needs to be shooting like 42-43% from 3 to justify his salary, especially with his reduced impact on defense since his injuries.

Look I'm a practicing Ortodox Christian: we aknowledge homosexuality as depraved and a perversion of the sexual appetite. And two gay men together isn't "marraige", that's the theological term for the spiritual union between men and women.

The Chicago Bulls have been trying to offload Zach LaVine by attaching a first-round pick to him, but so far, no teams have shown interest, per

Rejoice, Magic Chads: the T-Mac arc intrigues Paul George. He's much older but there are some parellels. Worth noting MAGIC CULTURE is more intiguing to George than Heat sissies. All I knowis the Heat don't have ameeting with him and a sign and trade for Herro and a pick or two is very doable. Be patient; he's ours.

George opted out, he can't do a sign and trade. The Heat don't have the money which is why they can't do anything with George. Why are you even thinking about the Heat anyways?
>>
>>142234077
All religions are "fake".
>>
>>142260757
Yes, he can do a sign and trade still. What he can't do is an opt-in and trade.

Denver doesn't have money to do anything for 3rd season in a row.
They just got lucky that league gave up on Bruce Brown so they got him by chance.
If Jokic was American, he'd force a trade
>>
>>142261359
But they won't. It's easier for him to just sign straight up since they don't have to go through the effort of making a trade.
>>
>>142259815
Yeah, and I've "explored" the possibility of dating a supermodel: all theoretical. Call me when he puts pen to paper.

>>142261602
I know they won't, but he can. My point is there are avenues to go to Miami: If he had legit interest in Miami, he would have taken a meeting. But he didn't, so he isn't interested. Not very complicated, really.

It's kind of cute HEAT fans think their ref ring in '06 is legitimate and having LeBron for 4 years just beacuse his best friendplayed for the HEAT wasn't some anomaly. At least the 09' Magic built their team legitimately.

I remember you all during thw regular seaoan this pastyear: "regulr season doesn't matter talk to me in the playoffs". But you were a ghost in /nba/ when the Heat lost in 5 games. Can't wait until next year. We'll talk soon.

Gil tries act like the players have no control over their playing time, or over anything. Yet I seem to remember not too long ago the Clippers all took their jerseys off, threw them in the middle of the court and refused to play until Sterling was removed as the owner of the team... all for the crime of telling his wife that he didn't want her to fuck black guys behind his back.

So much for "having no power".

The bigger point is that LeBron has inordinate power compared to seemingly every other player that has ever played. He uses bullshit tactics to get his way at all costs and leaves a trail of destruction in his wake, then turns around and pays shills to badmouth the actual greats in order to further his political agenda. He's probably fucking paying Arenas under the table for fucks sake. He went to LA to further his own financial wealth and get a closer grip on the media, he is the most selfish piece of shit to ever play the game, he doesnt care about the game itself and its evident both in his play style and his fucking antics.

Arenas is a fucking fraud, spewing bullshit just for clicks. He will go anywhere that gets him clicks.

Knicks are really about to lose Hartenstein after they gave up their entire draft capital for Bridges. If Hartenstein goes to OKC, then its over for west. Chet + iHart would be a cheat code.

If LeFraud was actually concerned about winning there's a lot of teams he could sign with assuming he just takes whatever amount works with the cap.

But in typical LeBron fashion he wants to have his cake and eat it, too. He wants to win but also wants to stay with a badly run franchise just for name recognition, insists on a top-level multiyear deal that he's not quite worth anymore, wants them to go into win-now mode even though they already pissed away all their assets to cater to his shortsightedness years ago, and is wasting a roster sport on his useless son just for the sheer vanity of it. He's not serious, and he will never win anything ever again. He's damn lucky the bubble happened or this entire LA stint would be one perpetual moment of failure

The Bulls could have traded Andre Drummond to the 76ers at the deadline for three second-round picks.

They decided not to and remained "competitive." Now, Drummond goes to Philly and the Bulls end up with nothing.

Surprised someone even took this job. They're as irrelevent as irrelevent gets. There's absolutely no hope. They are the new Detroit Lions.

League fucked them out of Wemby because they didn't want him in the Detroit market. Then they fucked us again this year but it really doesn't matter as Ree-sha-shay and every other prospect is going to bust.

There's no incentive to try. Just keep tanking and pray you get a building block in the Top-5. Hope they trade Cade for picks. If they only won 14 games with him, they'll win just as many without him.

The only reason to watch games is to bet NBA Player Props and root for things like Duren to get a double-double. At least it's an empty arena, cheap tickets, and warm unlike hockey.

Amazing how dumb people commenting on warriors seem to be. They have Kuminga and Moody - who are both only 22 years old and only got starting minutes midway through last season. Plus two rookies who looked extremely good last season in Podz and Trayce Jackson-Davis. The team has a promising young core and the team dispatching old expensive players is what they need to get playing time. I suspect Moody and Kuminga are both much better than people realize.

The reason the W's were ass last year was mostly down to Wiggins, who I believe has a drinking problem or something. If they can get rid of him and slot in a player under 30 years old who can shoot or get to the rim they will be a playoff team next season.

>>142269152
are you fucking serious
nuggets can't pay $23m for one of the best 3&d guys in the league? this team is so dead
>>
>>142269551
Braun can shoot he just refused to because he was nervous.
>>
>>142269412
Braun obviously starts, Strawther should get 15+ minutes a night now, Daron Holmes and Vlatko fill out 6-8

>>142269399
OKC got a treasure chest for PG. See: >>142226147

We have no assets that anyone wants and the league is preventing us from obtaining those assets (draft lottery rigging).

No sane pro athlete is going to willingly sign up to play in Detroit. Just move the team to Vegas already.

>>142269625
they fucked up giving an extension to zeke nnaji last year and limited how much they could have given to KCP.
>>
>>142269625
still rather have that future than the heats future without jimmy after next year. god we gotta get him traded.
>>
>>142269625
They already hit 2nd apron even if KCP retains the same salary, I think. Maybe they tried by offloading Reggie first to lower the bill but that wasn't enough.
>>
>>142269650
they gave nnaji an extension specifically so they could use him in non-aggregated salary match 2nd apron trades
and now they won't pay this guy to keep their team together, because it would put them in the second apron I guess. makes a lot of sense
>>142269682
they knew that before they traded reggie
>>
>>142269636
okc traded for PG in the first place. That's the point. OKC drafts well and makes opportune trades. What does detroit do? Draft bust after bust and make bad trades. Remember Blake? Remember not flipped Drum when he still had value? Remember Killian Hayes. Remember how Cade was a can't miss, guaranteed allstar? There is no amount of rigging that can explain the dogshit management

>[Scotto] The Atlanta Hawks will exercise the team’s $2.23 million option on Garrison Mathews, league sources told @hoopshype. Mathews shot a career-high 44% from 3-point range in a career-high 66 games for Atlanta last season. This paves the way for a potential extension down the line.

>>142269790
Guess Bogdanovic is really leaving...

I'm gonna fucking kms the nuggets have no future unless a ring chasing miracle happens
three second round picks to get rid of reggie jackson, signed a year earlier. three second round picks to move up like two spaces in the draft. two total first round picks, three seconds for the next five seasons. kcp walking for free. jalen pickett as the backup point guard, deandre jordan as the backup center. deandre jordan as the second most decorated player on the team beyond jokic. jamal murray getting an insane payday this year, aaron gordon getting one next year
it's so over
>>
>@Tjonesonthenba
>Denver offered KCP a salary pretty similar to what he ended up getting from Orlando and I’m told the Nuggets offered three years. The Nuggets definitely tried here

He just chose the Magic, don't get your panties in a bunch

i.e. wouldn't match

>"Just draft well bro lol skill issue"

This is you.

Can't wait to see the Pistons go 12-70 only to get the 5th pick again as they put Cooper Flagg in a market that the league prioritizes.

I don't understand James Harden wasn't athletic and nobody mentions it but when it's *a white guy* he's praised. Is it because the sport is dominated by blacks and people long for a great white hope or am I spending too much time on this site ?
