    You said this: "I think Cronin was pretty much engineering Dame's trade request by picking a PG. You don't invest a 3rd pick in a multi-year backup" I am saying that is wrong. He took Scoot because he thought he was the BPA. He would have taken Miller if Charlotte had taken Scoot. So I am...

    They are looking good. But I will take the field. Especially the way Boston is playing.

    Does it make any difference? You said, "You don't invest a 3rd pick in a multi-year backup." I am saying you do if you have no choice. That was my point. It was not a good draft. Everyone after Scoot had question marks. Hell even Scoot had question marks after his 2nd year in the G league as...

    I think before that draft, no one at 3 was considered an obvious starter. Sure, the Thompson twins ended up being starters, but as I recall, everyone viewed Wemby and Miller as the only obvious choices. That draft was not deep. They were going BPA in that draft.

    Did we choose to move on from Dame, or did Dame choose to move on? I think the idea was for him to play behind Dame in a 3 guard rotation with Shae.

    Who says he does not work his ass off all year round? My point was that his injury set him back, and he has only been back for 12 games.

    The kid worked his ass off all summer. Those who watched him were excited about his progress. Then he tears his hamstring and has only been back for 12 games. You are being extremely unrealistic about him jumping right in and being consistent. It's not like he is a wing player camping out on the...

    Granted, the Pacers are struggling, but it's not like Nembhard, Nesmith, Siakam, Walker, McConnell, Sheppard, and Toppin are G League players. They all have playoff experience.

    Scoot was so fun to watch. Good to see him play well next to either Jrue or Deni. Glad to have some depth finally. Hopefully it stays that way.

    Scoot reviews

    I believe this was only Scoot's 12th game of the season after his injury. The rust is falling off.

    Yeah, but to be fair, one is attacking the basket all game long, and the other is shooting 30-footers. And Curry still gets calls he shouldn't.

    Yeah, I still disagree with the obsession with the two-timeliness. It's not a big deal to me. I actually like it. Sure, last night was on the backs of 3 older players, but was it when Shae and Deni were actually playing? Plus, DC only played 12 minutes. We need Camara out there despite his...

    The Spurs might not be the best example, they are so loaded at pG why would they want to add his salary?

    OT: LaMelo Ball , is he the real deal?

    I guess if that half year includes the playoffs. However 40 million + is a lot for a player only playing half a year. But maybe his injuries issues are behind him.

    OT: LaMelo Ball , is he the real deal?

    Yeah he just needs to stay healthy. The last 3 years, he played 47, 32, 36
