What are your takes and predictions for what Dallas can/will do to bring a secondary star alongside Luka? As incredible as he is a player, team can't win long-term. Feel like reaching the Conference Finals unlikely again.

I believe the interest in Ayton is real. PHO is better off getting picks and rebuilding. They have a great young core less Paul.
I don't see Kyrie in Dallas.

DeRosan will be available.

IMO, neither Ayton or Derozan will propel Dallas to the next level. I don't see that significant a difference between Ayton and Wood. Derozan been a loser his entire life as a pro.
Trying to figure why the Nuggets number for tonight game keeps going lower. What do they know that I don't?
They got down there early, staying in the same hotel they were in the bubble this should be an easy W. With all the trades and talk around the NBA they should be wanting to make a statement tonight. I just don't get it.

Somebody saw them out partying last night because I didn't recognize whatever that was out there this evening.

Spurs depth for tonight with Keldon Johnson ruled OUT:
PG - Devonte' Graham (likely to play as he went through shootaround for the first time with his new team)
SG - Malaki Branham
SF - Keita Bates-Diop
PF - Doug McDermott
C - Zach Collins
Bench
Blake Wesley
Stanley Johnson
Isaiah Roby
Gorgui Dieng
Pistons are awful, and 6 seems like asking a lot of them, but if there were a spot.....

Luca and Kyrie is going to be a disaster. Luca has to be the man. It was funny watching Kyrie staring at the Luca dribbling show yesterday. Late in the game Kyrie all alone baseline 3, Luca emulating a Globetrotter dribbling show, shoots a step back over two defenders and misses.
2 top ten iso guys is oil and water.

Just broke Magic Johnson's long standing record of 23 straight wins when recording a triple double. Unlike Westbrook and Lebron his stats are far from empty.

Lol you call Lebron's assists empty, they led to 4 rings. Unless he gets a ring, he and Westbrook are on parallel paths.
Chicago head coach Billy Donovan is familiar with Westbrook's game from their days in OKC.
They didn't lead to shit. Lebron had to go team up with another Hall of Famer and an All-Star to get a chip.
Just like the stars from the past Joker's not built that way.
It's hard to hear anything Heim says when he's gargling on LeBricks balls. "LeBron's assist led to four championships".
Heim

He went to the Finals with Gibson, Gooden, Hughes and IIguaskas in 06-07. You see any AS or HOF there? Let me know if Joker ever gets that far.They didn't lead to shit. Lebron had to go team up with another Hall of Famer and an All-Star to get a chip.

Are you trying to prove your lack of basketball acumen? He came out of the East. Do I have to remind you what the East look like back then? Holy fuck you say some stupid shit but this one might actually take the cake.
Came out of the east. Can't make this dumb fucking shit up.

He’ll probably do well on Chicago, at least he”s not afraid of the ball in the 4th qtr.

i think you need 2 hall of famers to win. Can we name 1 HOF finals winner? cannot do it with 1 ,, i could be wrong
bill walton?

His game is identical to LaVine, except LaVine is a better shooter. I'm sure he'll spell LaVine at times, and provide some spark off the bench. But he can't shoot.
And as a anonymous Laker said...'he was a vampire in the locker room'...

Nowitzki did it...is Kidd in the Hall?
Heim

Unless Sikma is in the Hall....they did it.
walton ..hall of famer ..wins finals by himself
maurice lucas not in hall of fame ...wow 5 time all star
Did the Pistons even have one?
Raptors? Do the Bucks have 2?
Who was Hakeems 2nd?

I mean you cant help it if you're lucky enough to be on a team that drafted more than 1 HOF I'm just saying Jokic's not the type to go around chasing a championship. He's not going to feel sorry for himself and blame the organization.
I actually didn't realize that Bosh was a HOF. So LeBrick actually left to hook up with 2 other HOF to get his 1st Championship. Such a pussy.They didn't lead to shit. Lebron had to go team up with another Hall of Famer and an All-Star to get a chip.

Sounds like a Lebron guy who put that out. He’s supposed to be a good teammate.

Westbrook had a interesting good-bye to Lebron on Instagram. Basically intimating he got what he wanted and good luck with the
snitch DeAngelo. It was a little immature for a guy making 47 mil.

Can’t say I’m shocked, but it’s a TMZ-filled league now. Funny thing is LBJ wanted Westbrook over DeRosan.
