The only thing I would say to any of this, is that everyone gets injured - all the time. Lebron has actually held up better than lots of players...
Just like LeBron’s sciatica, this is just the wear and tear of being a high end athlete for a long time. You won’t recover from wear and tear, you...
The difference between regular folk who lead a sedentary lifestyle (like us) and elite athletes is that our flare ups occur usually from too much...
Sciatica is an upset sciatic nerve that is in the glute and sends signals down both legs. In a worse case scenario you get what’s known as drop...
Keeping Rui while Lebron is old is actually solid for us and everyone slots in pretty well. Luka / Gabe Reaves / Smart Vando / Knecht Rui /...
Bridges has a 10m lower salary slot so they’d have to give up another piece for Giannis. And OG and Giannis play in similar areas so they’ll get...
Some of Rui’s value comes in being an expiring. Let’s say Giannis gets traded to the Knicks for Hart and OG plus firsts. We could theoretically...
They won’t hold onto him unless they offer him stupid money in the offseason. They stupidly didn’t extend him and he’ll be an unrestricted free...
I’m really not worried about Rui at all. He has developed into a finisher and not a creator, to me that’s where his value comes from. He’ll finish...
I would say Grimes’ best play came when he was defensively on fire in New York in his second season. He had 5ish win shares and was solid as their...
I believe Manon is hurt. Would like to see him since he could be a nice pickup just like Goodwin was. Gabe has had decent stretches for us, when...
11 deep… you missed the chosen one.
We’re missing Kleber which is really a big loss. Arguably the best player on the team on both sides of the ball. Once he comes back alongside...
All we can go off of, is his last season, where he was All NBA level. I would say that when Luka came, Lebron actually switched into our best...
Luka, Lebron, Reaves, Smart and Kleber the chosen one are all missing. That’s basically our whole starting lineup. So look at positives, Ayton...
We let go of a number of decent players, Brook Lopez, Zubac, Beasley, heck we even let go of Lonnie Walker that we could retain as a backup or...
We don't really have a lot to trade for a second piece at the moment. If Giannis gets traded this year, we won't win that sweepstakes. Jokic said...
I don't think it's optimistic at all - every year we have teams that pay a 80m+ a year in luxury taxes when they're close to competing. Here are...
Maybe I’m being naive, but Smart strikes me as the guy who wants to compete his last few years. Ayton, I’m not sure about, but I think he wants...
Why do we need to get under the second apron in my scenario? To save our cheap owners on luxury tax? We now have one of the richest owners in...
