Okoro is averaging 12-6-3 on 51/45 splits as a starter. He is still someone I'm mildly interested in as a free agnet poach.

Yeah….I had pegged him as an interesting target before the season. His defense is actually terrific. I don’t know why he doesn’t get mentioned as much as one of the top perimeter guys. He’s a bowling ball that moves extremely well.

Unfortunately, the Cavs need him badly and I think they are starting to realize that. I would have been interested to see if we could have got him in a Clarkson trade.

Bulls winning this much without Zach has to hurt his trade value a bunch.

Not that it can get much lower... but possible suitors may not care about the Bulls suddenly winning. Nobody is trading for LaVine to play as a top option / ball pounder in 2023 - more like a 3rd fiddle perimeter gunner. This is probably the exact role he will have on the Lakers if he manages to worm his way there.

Absolutely amazing performance by Ja Morant in his return. 27 second-half points and just scintillating down the stretch with the game-winning drive at the buzzer.

Not only that but he scored their last 6 and had a steal just before those 6 points.

CJ McCollum and Zion are happy that Ja got all the media focus. Those two combined to produce an airball (CJ), a missed layup (Zion) and a shot that missed the rim (CJ) the last 3 Pels possessions, when Ingram was obviously the hot hand and pretty much automatic and unstoppable in the 2nd half.
 
By the way, here's a timely reminder about the joys of "building through the draft" and avoiding the hell of being just pretty good:



In other words... you really, really, REALLY need your high picks to hit. There is never any guarantee they will.

Sam Merrill making the most of his time in the rotation. He's having a nice game tonight.

Merrill obviously burned the Jazz last night too. Cavs signed him to a 3 year minimum deal.

Craig Porter Jr is another playing well for them and is on a 2 way contract.

As a rebuilding team these are the types Ainge should be taking flyers on. Instead he's been acquiring/signing veterans such as Olynyk, Collins, and Clarkson and Dunn.
 
The Bulls won again. I wonder what LaVine is thinking when the Bulls have been playing so much better without him.
 
The team that Dallas had playing tonight was worse than the Pistons. Lots of garbage time, so Amen and Cam got lots of playing time. A bit of a mixed bag for both of them.
