Bell and Jones are centers. If Kerr plays them at PF he's fucking up.
I'm guessing it'll be Zaza again or some random cheap pickup with Damian Jones and Jordan Bell off the bench.

lmao what are you talking about
I think this is a case where bad is good
Stahpppp trying to big dick each other over sample sizes that don't matter.
He did have 7 turnovers and no assists. The shot going in was cool but his floor game still looked suspect at times. But since he won't be asked to be a playmaker much it's not really a huge deal. He just needs to 3 and D his balls off to get paid.

Nick Young about to do some damage on the Warriors. Here's hoping he will have a banner year. 6MOTY?
Honest to God I'm not saying huurrrr jaylens this or that. I'm pointing out how stupid it is to say "call me when jaylen makes a shot" when Ingram has no ground to stand on.
I think they can finally rescue Klay from that Draymond + bench unit. He didn't have playmakers around him and it fucked his rotation to a point where he was coming back into games with less than 3 minutes to go in the half. Now he'll be back with KD and Curry more.
Curry/Young/Klay/KD/Draymong(Casspi) = GOAT 3 point shooting line up?

All right fair enough.
Waiters has been deeper in the playoffs than Gordon's ever been, so Riles stays winning.
Makes sense. Must be why they paid Haslem and Battier 4 years too long.
Tatum is ridiculously smooth.
He looks slow to me.
A negative from college was an inability to drive or get to the rack with the ball and finish at a high degree, but I don't think he's slow. It just looks sort of pre-planned at times and robotic, which can come off looking slow. But that being said, in comparison to Brown, yeah he doesn't glide around the court like him.
Dude has 0 assists and 7 turnovers. He was making shots, but things like decision making are important too lol.

Tatum looks polished.
admit it if your sixers looked incredible you'd be shouting their praises
Don't get me wrong, I'm not denying that I am going to have Summer League takes. It's just so fucking meaningless lol
It's the only thing we have at this point to keep us non-Warriors teams optimistic that we can actually achieve something next season

So Celtics trying to shop all their defensive studs to make room for Hayward...
IT's defense makes up for the defense of like 12 Kawhi's, we can afford to give up some trash tier talent like Bradley and Marcus "Better than Jordan" Smart

I guess that means IT is gone, he got one vote for all-NBA defense

Paying 40 cents on the dollar has to help.

There are far, far worse things you can do in this league than to give $52 million over 4 years to a 25 year old guard who can create his own shot, plays decent defense and shoots 40% from three.
A team who has no way to replace him if he leaves? And probably can't match if an offer sheet gets too big to begin with.
Tony Snell is a bad basketball player. He's basically like a Hollis Thompson type player. It's a bad contract fam
So the Bucks are completely out of assets! Oh, who wouldve ever guessed that the team that decided to give Greg Monroe a huge deal even though he sucks! The GM there is garbo, henson, Delly, Monroe and now Snell are bad contracts. #FREEGIANNIS

I was talking about Waiters. Provided he doesn't fall off a cliff, Waiters' contract is a really good contract.
my b, I dont mind that contract at all.
Well Monroe only has a year left, but yeah, unless they find a way to get off some money next offseason, they're sort of capped out at this juncture because Jabari will be up for an extension. If they let Jabari go, then they can probably scrounge up 15-20 million in space to find another person to put with Giannis.
I don't like the Waiters contract. Money wise it's not disastrous (depending where the cap goes), but I'm not giving Waiters long-term money. He hasn't proven it and you're paying for his play during the best 45 game stretch of his career.
He's a career 35% 3 point shooter. He's best with the ball in his hands which he got more of a chance to do last season, but if your team has the ball in his hands alot, you're not very good.
Also, it's probably not going to be with the Celtics, but Abdel Nader is going to have an NBA career.

4/$52 is the going rate for a guy like Waiters in the current NBA. It's a fine contract. He's not a star, but he's not being paid like one. There's inherent risk with every contract, but When you look at what guys like Allan Crabbe or Tyler Johnson were paid, I'd take Waiters over them in ahearbeat.
If it's not just being out of shape Zizic is toast. Tatum is really advanced on offense. He doesnt look explosive but haven't seen anyone really bother his shots.

Zizic was getting stripped left and right
I get it, it's not crazy by itself. But I don't like the player if you're trying to build a winning team. And having that much guaranteed cash tied up in Whiteside, Waiters, Johnson, etc. is terrifying to me and a sure path to mediocrity, IMO.
The Heat didn't have much choice after Danny spanked Riley, though.

Giving 11 million a year to a good 3 and D guy isn't bad. Bucks FA signings from last season plus Henson were far worse.
Also the fact that organisation seems to be run by 3 Viveks.
