The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

Lucky for Dallas he is locked up for 2 more years. They definitely won the trade deadline getting him and Washinton. I think they are legit championship contenders now.
IDK about that.

When fully healthy Gafford isnt adding all that much and I dont trust PJ to be consistent at all.

Think the trades are more just to make sure they get into the top 6 and avoid the play in.
 
Gafford and Washington looking like very impactful additions for the Mavs, meanwhile OKC not adding any big man depth could end up being a big mistake for a team with as much resources as the Thunder.
The future is obviously incredibly bright for the thunder but they had a chance to solidify themselves as a title favorite this deadline and they dropped the ball. A healthy Hayward helps but Gafford would have been ideal. Now the mavs are a legit contender in my opinion and I like them more than the thunder this year.

Gafford is a massive upgrade over what they were bringing off the bench and so is PJ. They are a really solid 9 deep now.

Sure, but you cant play Gafford and Lively together. It's cool, but it's not a difference maker past the first round imo.
 
Wiseman is so wild to watch.

I forgot how big he is. Dude is a giant and moves so well. Has to be one of the worst ratios of tools to IQ in the NBA. He's like Whiteside without the elite shot blocking.

Pistons will be so much better when they get Grimes/Stewart in and they can stop playing Wiseman and guys like Brown Jr/Umude.
 
When the Pistons stop playing Troy Brown and Wiseman when they get Grimes and Stewart back, they will be a much better team.
 
Holy **** Norman Powell took a vicious elbow from Jalen Duren, the strongest looking dude in the NBA. Blood everywhere.
 
Tech made some money heading to Detroit... he gonna get like 25%+ more than he would have otherwise by putting up some bigger numbers.
