The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

Zach's on/off per 100 is a +25.8. Would be best in the league if he had played enough minutes. They are 7-4 when he plays and 4-9 when he doesn't. Zach being out is a material change for Memphis.
 
I've listened to a couple nba pods that have talked about all NBA and all star selections and it feels like it's going to come down to Lauri vs Deni for the all star game.

It's kind of crazy for Lauri to play as well as he has and still be on the outside of the all star game.
 
It sounds like Castle and Harper are untouchable, so there probably isn't much use in discussing it, but curious who people like better. If we did trade Lauri, who would you prefer in return, Castle or Harper?
 
SAS plays OKC 5 times between now and the trade deadline. I wonder if they look like they are just a piece away if they go for it and make a big trade.

Harper.

I would rather have Castle but don't really have a good reason why.
Just my gut
 
Portis is making Turner look a real bad signing for the bucks right now. Maybe he was the right guy for us all along. Maybe DL could've kept his job if he chose to sign him instead of Bogey in summer 2019.
 
Ppl are still hung up in 2011 it's ****ing insane. Touch grass and enjoy the show, there will never be another like him. It's a treat to watch

The wild thing is after that, he came back to that lowly franchise and carried them to a ring in a fashion that might be forever unrivaled, all things considered.

I truly don’t understand the sentiment that he’s somehow particularly self-centered (BTW: he’s probably gonna finish his career #2 in assists which might as well be #1 since no one is touching Stockton’s record) or particularly arrogant. Yet, people seem to worship Jordan and Kobe because they are lunatic assholes (one of which is known to have raped someone and got away with it because the victim was overwhelmed with threats). MJ might’ve got his dad killed and shadow-suspended by the league for gambling. But “lol”, what alphas they are! Those two were also more arrogant and orders of magnitude more selfish than LeBron.

Do people hate LeBron cuz he smiles and makes any effort to show congeniality to his teammates? Is that the difference?

I actually think LeBron is one of the more humble of the GOATs. He’s been with the same woman his entire adult life. No scandals. I do not get the hate, except that it’s probably a reflection of how sick our society is.
