God it seems ages ago when Deron Williams and Chris Paul were neck and neck battling to see who was the best point guard in the league.

Yeah, but Rondo was better than bof!

Eh. We need a new PG revolution.

 

[ViciousDS]

Is boogie cleared for tonight?

 

[Domcorleone]

Is boogie cleared for tonight?

Yep he plays tonight

Playoff Rondo was an actual thing back in the day :/

 

[ViciousDS]

Yep he plays tonight

Fuck yes


15 minutes baby!!!!


Can't wait to see this duo in action

 

[Sanjuro]

I wonder if Boogie's cancer will be on display tonight.

I think the other game is Knicks / Cavs on TNT? Oakley in the stands. haha

 

[friskykillface]

Fuck Cavs / Knicks

Give me boogie x unibrow

 

[Sanjuro]

Melo is going to show Danny what he missed out on tonight.

 

[BlackGhost]

Go Cav. Try to win, if you don't.....it's ok. Atleast you tried.

 

[Tom Penny]

I'm bouncing mang..

 

[LyleLanley]

Boring trade deadline for the C's but I'm ok with Ainge not blowing up the team for Butler or a rental of George. What the hell are the sixers doing though?

The tank never stops.

 

[LyleLanley]

The tank never stops.

The process is dead, long live the process.

 

[Sanjuro]

We still need to hear more about the actual discussions, but the amazing thing?

Celtics could have possibly had Cousins and Butler and not given up the Brooklyn picks.

 

[msdstc]

It shouldn't at this point. Embiid can't be the guy, he's too injury prone.

I haven't heard much about what the Bulls wanted for Butler but I don't believe for a second that the C's could've got either of those guys without giving up at least one Brooklyn pick.

 

[mjp2417]

At least Chuck is admitting it is crazy that Pels/Rockets isn't the TNT game

 

[Sanjuro]

I mean, you're not wrong. We have no idea of Danny's SAC. We have some idea of the Chicago talks.

Chicago wanted players, not picks. SAC ultimately wanted a movie theater small popcorn size pick.

The Kings only settled for that pick because they got Buddy "Steph Curry Jr." Hield as well. I don't think there's any one guy on the C's they'd be just as enamored with.

 

[Gigglepoo]

Do we know what Ainge was offering Charlotte so Boston could draft Winslow? I'm curious how much he was willing to give up to move into that draft versus the assets he was dangling for Paul George and Jimmy Buttler.

That's what we think though. Again, you can't compare the rejections/deal with one team to another. I'm just going by what we know, and what we know is that combo could have likely been available for much less than Pacers were looking for.

Basically, Bird isn't a fucking idiot.

 

[msdstc]

Lol perfect start for Boogie, draws the foul, drains the shot.

 

[Line_HTX]

Damn, Charles was right. TNT really should've shown Rockets / Pelicans. Huge crowd atmosphere tonight.

Fucking Nene gotta work harder against Boogie.

 

[LyleLanley]

I think I remember it being 4 firsts and 2 seconds. But the nets picks surely weren't included.

 

[ViciousDS]

empty seats but this crowd is lit......

 

[El Topo]

The process is dead, long live the process.

The year is 2024. The 76ers are fielding a team of #1 draft picks.

He was reportedly willing to trade Larry Bird's actual legacy. The whole thing. Jordan said he has his own, which is true, but Ainge (rightfully) pointed out, "not in Charlotte, you don't." Jordan hung up and Frank the Tank is what we got.

True story, no embellishments.

 

[Gigglepoo]

I think I remember it being 4 firsts and 2 seconds. But the nets picks surely weren't included.

It's funny that the one time Ainge was willing to offer a ton of his assets was for an unproven rookie in a loaded draft. Winslow might not even be one of the ten best guys that went that year.

 

[msdstc]

That and rozier are two big black marks on Danny for me these rebuilding years. No idea why he was pressing so hard for Winslow.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

The year is 2024. The 76ers are fielding a team of #1 draft picks.

4 of them are Anthony Bennetts.

 

[ViciousDS]

fucking davis can literally just defend with cousins


holy shit. once these guys start clicking this is going to be amazing



pels at 8th seed is a nasty potential matchup against gsw

 

[TTG]

Ummm, Cousins sure is parked at the three point line a lot.

Yeah he offered a banner too, can't believe Michael didn't take it.

 

[darkwing-buck]

Shit what channel is the pelicans game on?

 

[msdstc]

The spacing is ridiculous on this team already... too bad hill and moore are the other guys lol.

 

[LyleLanley]

6 picks sounds like a lot but when they include the clippers pick and some of their own middling picks along with second round picks it's not that ridiculous.

Winslow was a pretty hyped prospect going into the draft, I think it makes sense.

 

[ViciousDS]

well......he only had like 4 days to learn the system.....give it time

Idk 6 picks is far too much. There is a reason he fell that far. and so far we lucked out.

 

[Line_HTX]

Playing so sloppy and they look rusty as fuck.

Only a matter of time before both Davis and Cousins go off.

its your typical first game back from all star break lol


everything moves insanely slow..........once these two do go off. everyones fucked

 

[Chase17]

[Matrix]

Sweet Lou comes in and hits two corner 3's with his two first shots as a Rocket haha what a steal

haha

 

[spyder_ur]

Sweet Lou looking right at home in Houston. Just hoist away.

 

[Line_HTX]

Man, Davis got some long ass arms.

you mean elite stretch 5 frank the tank

 

[Mory Dunz]

Why are the knicks on national so much...

 

[Line_HTX]

You just got Harden'd from beyond the 3.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

I said no embellishments, and I'm nothing if not a man of my word.

 

[Line_HTX]

Need more coast to coasts from Eric Gordon please.

Maybe some threes here and there.

 

[neptunes]

The Knicks are the highest valued team in the league
