2026-27 Team Developments: Trades / Free Agents / News / Rumors / Ideas

I’m not saying it’s a blanket rule for everyone, there is loads of IQ everywhere. But Isn’t it just readily accepted that euros look to develop fundamentals and within a system whereas state side has loads of extremely talented and athletic guys that rely on those gifts to be transcendent?

 

If there’s no path to add wing depth (Kuminga or Rui), I would really like to target Saddiq Bey from the Pelicans. He is on a $6 million expiring contract and he is an ideal of a 3 and D player who can play both the SF and PF positions.

 

I will do that and very much appreciate the input but coaching is what I do for fun. I work with people in crisis, suicidal or mental health issues, mostly Alaska Native but not all. We safety plan and help find rehab services. Of which there are far to few. Variety of other things.

 

Thank you for your service to that cause - I’m sure there are many people you’ve helped directly and indirectly more than you could know! Kudos to you

 

It’s going to be wild when we sign Peyton Watson to the bench to backup Cameron Carr. Will be a nice two way punch at the 3.

 

There is 1 problem. The NBA is in America not Europe. So the rules and officials will determine the outcome not the players IQ. American player also has a great understanding of the game. ex Lebron, Curry, CP3, Harden etc. Lebron is one of the smartest when it comes to BBball IQ . However as he ages and become less athletic even when his numbers remain similar he still becomes less impactful, Harden and CP3 are other examples of this. On the defensive side is where slips and where the bigger slips pops up. I think most analyst noted Lakers will be great on offense. The defense is where the concerns lies. Even with 3 high IG players in Lebron/Luka/Austin the concerns were still defense. Its not a matter of race but players traits strength and weakness. Other than Walker and maybe Laravia they are not known to be strong defenders.

 

I don’t really get the point you’re trying to make. Is this another shot at LeBron and Reaves?

 

Amick reported that Denver is going to match any offers for Watson, but they’re open to sign and trades for him as well.

Man if we could pull this off…

Unfortunately, we don’t really have any assets. We have a swap and 3 seconds. If we had managed to get off Vando’s salary in the Kessler trade. We could offer them Knecht, Hardy and Jake which is 16.2m and all our seconds.

 

lol. Lebron is making 42 years old in December. What could possibly a shot at a 42 year old playing better than many prime players. Its still wont change he is 42 and not the player he once was. As for Austin it is what it is. He is a very good player, Some see Manu some see MJ. It all depends on who you ask. For the record Manu did win 5 rings. So if Austin is compared to a 5 time champ how is that a shot? The point is Steven A is being racist but at the same time the teams defense will be in question as its been for the past 3-4 years.
