Thats because the NBA has a massive pervasive conspiracy where they direct stars to small markets to pair with other stars.

You know what I enjoy about this forum? The people who just hang onto shit and then insert into every fucking thread over and over days, weeks, months, or even years after the conversation is over. It just really gives this place the extra spice that makes it so much fun.

They played great 2nd half of season when healthy. They should run it back at least 1 or 2 years.

When you win 4 titles you should keep the core together.

They'll have plenty of time to rebuild in a few years.

If any of Camara Deni Scoot Sharpe get us to a title, let alone 4, I'll be happy to let that group have some swan song seasons for a few extra years and delay the next rebuild.

Always wish we had been able to experience some more of those years with the Jordan Bulls. Felt cheated we didn't get to see them naturally end their run. Instead we watched a diminished Jordan do squat on the Wizards.

The core is already broken up. Klay and Iguodala were major pieces and they are gone.

Can we all be reasonable and admit that Anthony Edwards is a major dude? I wish we had someone like him on our team. If we could replace Sharpe with a guy like Edwards I'd be pretty damn excited about our team.

I'd like to join you in giving Ant Edwards his flowers and at the same time I'm left shaking my head because you had to throw Shaedon under the bus while doing so.

Edwards has been scary good since day one in the league. He was a first pick and Shaedon was a seventh, he was a first team all rookie selection and Shaedon wasn't but different stars have different paths to stardom.

So I'm willing to continue to hope that Shaedon lives up to the glimpses he's given us... but of course we'd be better right now if we could trade Shaedon strait up for Ant Edwards. It's unrealistic and just a way to get a jab in on one of our players... which I'm not necessarily against but Shaedon is my favorite guy on the team right now so there's that.

No jabs bro. The gap between them is just large right now. I hope Sharpe becomes a stud, I just can't see him becoming a top 10 player in the league. Edwards is an absolute animal personality wise. I think we need someone on our team with Edwards personality. I just as easily could have said scoot or clingan. Edwards and Sharpe just play the same position.

Sharpe will be better. Edwards is overrated. Look up his PER.
 
Presty has a number of years with super stars coming and going and still hasn’t won the whole thing. He should get one soon if not this year or?

So many people have shit on Presti over the years.

Dude is one of the best gms in the league. Getting a winner in OKC is tough.

Edwards is only a couple years older than Sharpe. Lots of ground to cover to even be close.

Edwards vs Sharpe in their 3rd seasons, at 21 years:

Edwards is already a 3-time all-star. He was an all-star in his 3rd season. When the all-star game happened in Sharpe's 3rd season, He was coming off the bench and Kris Murray was starting

Edwards was 2nd team all NBA last season (his 4th season) and will be at least that this season. Anybody think Sharpe will be All-NBA next season? or average 26-5-5 like Edwards did?

I like Sharpe and hold out hope for him. But at this point, forecasting he'll be better than Edwards is foolish. Jalen Williams is a more realistic goal and even then, it might not happen

Edwards’ PER is 20. That’s Ty Jerome territory. Jerome is actually better. Sharpe could easily pass that in his career.
 
NYK needs to sit their starters at this point
