OKC has 4 picks in this draft. We have 3 next year (Jazz, Lakers, and Min or Cleveland). Who else is interested in swapping a 2027 pick for one of their 2026 picks? I love the idea of grabbing 2 rookies in this class. OKC doesnt have the space to keep all 4 picks and punting is surely...

I think the Lakers would be ALL OVER trying to get JJJ. They have wanted a center for a while. They have expiring contracts. And JJJ makes them relevant.

Hopefully these arent anything like the Josh Giddey "high school drills"...

Is it though? Lauri's stats are impressive. I think he has plenty of value in this league. And many folks here said that his contract wasnt worth more than 1 or 2 firsts and that it is potentially one of the worst contracts in the league and that he was washed. There is plenty of...

Cody defends and his biggest problem last year was how timid he was. He would never attack the paint... EVER. Now he is driving and dunking with some real class. If his shot improves, I would say he has upside. But you know best.

Same goes for Cody Williams who continues to get progressively better bit by bit.

Lauri was in half this boards dumpster 6 months ago. Let that be a lesson that players have ups and downs like the stock market and that perceived value can change quickly.

Again, if he doesnt respond then you waived his but and you have lost nothing. The Pelicans save $$$ but can just waive his boots in 6 months too. They probably need a pick swap or something to save face but fans are over it at this point.

I know this sounds terrible (like human trafficking) and that is not my intention... but if you see Zion as a potential fixer upper/flip opportunity then it could be amazing. Bring him in for 6 months. Revitalize his value under a better coaching system. Sell high. People have short...

Thanks. Not sure how I missed that. I searched more and noted that they are interested in a BUNCH of centers. The only thing I noticed that was interesting is that they have consistently asked about Walker. But clearly they are interested in acquiring "A big man". I dont think they will...

I like that Cody has been driving to the rim more aggressively this season. He didnt get a foot in to the paint last year. He is also improving his rim finishing even if it is still well below where it needs to be. I also like his defense. Is it game changing? Nah. Is it respectable...

So, you're saying you like Kawhi Leonards hand pads?

Where is the origin of the interest? I havent seen it.

Good find. I pointed out most of these but this gives more context to what I was trying to highlight. One or two of these would be fluky. The combination of them represents some pretty extreme odds and a lot of motivated situations. The best thing we can do as fans? But our jerseys in...

And... its a pretty good storyline to send the generational bigman prospect to a team known for developing and winning with bigman prospects.

Ewing was a hack job. Just go watch the video. Its wild. If they did it once why not again? There are just too many moments explained away by lottery luck. If a team makes major news that changes the franchise' perception at a national media level, expect the "luck". Again, I said this...

New Orleans - to help sell the team. I am not of the opinion that they play god every year. But what happened after everyone burned Lebron jerseys in the streets in Cleveland after "the decision"? What happened after Dallas burned jerseys very publically? What happened when New Orleans...

If the Jazz got AJ being a BYU guy that would be amazing. We have never had the #1 pick and it would jive with prior tampering seasons. Would I be shocked if this year fell to us? Not really given the Dyabantsa - BYU connection and the Jazz being a franchise in a slump. I like Saint Cys...

See the Clippers handling of Kawhi. Also, Ernst & Young do not have a crystal clear record. They currently face several huge lawsuits for failure to detect fraud including a 1.4 billion claim along with another major case where they failed to identify widespread fraud. Yall have too much faith...

Thats balderdash. My son and I both said that Dallas would win the lottery after half of the Dallas fans abandoned ship and burned jerseys. I called that one 4 months prior to the lottery. Felt as scripted as when New Orleans won the lottery post the league turmoil. Do I think every pick is...
