Probably Lauri's best game last year.
Those points in transition for a big is pretty nice.


Lauri for BI... who says no?


No.
Next Question.


I meant the teams guys. Lauri has an extra year on his contract and BI has the blood clot. I think the Bulls say no.


Dont forget that Lauri has a blood clot issue as well.


I’m 99% sure you’re joking, but not positive.

He was shut down the end of the season due to rapid heart rate and fatigue. I thought I had read somewhere about a blood clot issue. But I can't seem to find that online. So I'm off on the blood clot. My bad. But anything w/ the heart is alarming.

[edit] https://www.foxsportsasia.com/basketball/nba/1076816/lauri-markkanen-health-update-bulls-forward-cleared-to-play-after-scary-heart-issues/

seems to say he's cleared though.

Funny enough I was accused of being Dave when I first joined..

Kyrie is my favorite player.. I do like Ball and Ingram though. I don't have the energy to defend Ball with as much fervor. It's also hard to argue with "he sucks because I don't like his dad" so it's hardly worth the effort.

I think he quit due to the back stabbing.


([edit] Joke aside, hope the poster 32 is OK as well.)

Injuries will cost DeMarcus Cousins $150M

Thus, even if he’s unable to secure a multiyear deal, Cousins could still stand to get a one-year payday between $10 million and $15 million from a team itching to spend.

“He’ll be the Lakers’ or the Knicks’ consolation prize,” one of the Western Conference execs said.

I would take Cousins if we also get someone like Butler or Kemba.

If a team wouldn't do that this season why would they do it next?

Sucks for sure, but he's at least made about $85 Million already.

I don't hate a Cousins signing, if we are getting a Kyrie, Kemba, or Butler, or a good second tier free agent.

He can't stretch out a defense the way Love did.

Disregarding Cousin's 3pt % this year and Love's 2017 season where he shot exceptionally well they are closer than you realize even in shot attempts.

Would Sam presti be willing to trade Westbrook for AD? NOP wants the BPA in a trade and technically WB might be the best they could get and he has many years remaining under contract

I think you have that backwards... almost any GM with a functioning brain would trade Westbrook for AD. But would anyone trade for Westbrook?

Some here think so... I don't.

I guess I was asking in the context of AD only having 1 year left and the risk of him leaving in 1 year (similar risk as PG). Only difference is that WB was main reason PG stayed. So by trading WB, PG might be unhappy and AD might also bounce as a result after year 1. Slightly risky imo

Same reason people talk about things like:

We should get Marcus Smart (Just signed an extension, loves Boston)
We should get Patrick Beverly (Lol he hates us and loves his team)
Will DLO come back to us, we could use him (Lol)


Just random (bleep) thrown on a wall. Cousins is the biggest one though.
