Another prime time game another game players miss, wolves vs Celtics should be prime matchup but what was I thinking we’d have players playing. This league is a joke I have no idea why anyone buys tickets unless it’s one hour before tip so you know who is playing

No idea how in the world Avdija and Sharpe were among the candidates for Player of the Month awards in the West, they didn't have so good numbers and Portland didn't have such a good record in December either.
Clingan was also among the candidates for rookie of the month, Camara was for defensive player of the month, only Billups was NOT among the candidates for coach of the month.

Sharpe had 18/4/3, Avdija had 17/5/3, Portland had 3-9 record in December!!!
Sacramento had 5-8 record in December, Fox had 24.7/5/7, Sabonis had 21.3/14.6/5.6
It should be some kind of mistake, I am sure other players that aren't mentioned had better numbers in teams with winning records (J-Dub, I-Hart for OKC, Ja for MEM, Harden for LAC, AD for LAL, Kuminga for GSW etc), and Portlando isn't exactly the big market to favor them, very weird...

Nets keep shooting their rebuilds in the foot a couple of seasons too early every single time and it always ends poorly for them. Hopefully this time is different?
I think the problem is all these teams just run into impatient owners. "What do you mean no playoffs for 4 years???" So GM's have to act on those orders and make hasty organizational decisions to compensate for that.

Beal apparently doesn’t want to go to Miami so hard to see a Suns deal getting done but I don’t know if the Warriors have enough to get a good offer for Butler out there what with Podz killing a lot of his value. Presumably they won’t try to move their picks past the next couple of seasons since losing your picks from the post-Steph years feels like a dumb dumb dumb thing to do.
Maybe something like this?

I think that’s too big of a haul for Jimmy. If I was Miami I’d do it without the picks.

Point Guard
Herro
Kuminga
Bam
Ware

JJ
Jovic
Buddy
Wiggins

that’s a pretty decent team
