45 shots for Cade!!??

Wow! I watched the end of that game but I had no idea the dude had been jacking up that many shots. 45 shots only 14 made field goals. Yikes!

45 shots for Cade!!??

it was an OT game but still, 45 shots is crazy. 46 points on 45 shots is not good at all; it's chucking



Kobe scored 60 on 50 shots (1.20 points/shot)
MJ scored 64 on 49 shots (1.31 points/shot)
Brunson scored 61 on 47 shots (1.30 points/shot)
Kobe scored 41 on 47 shots - chucking at it's worst
Chris Webber scored 51 on 47 shots
Kobe scored 81 on 46 shots (1.76 points/shot)
Kobe scored 58 on 45 shots (1.29 points/shot)
DeJonte Murray scored 44 on 44 shots
Westbrook score 51 on 44 shots (1.16 points/shot)
Dame scored 71 on 38 shots (1.87 points/shot)

And 45 minutes played. Now that is a stat line you might not see often.

In advertising the next game against the Pels, it mentions that they’ll play against their old friend, CJ McCollum. I’m surprised that got by considering he wasn’t just recently traded to Washington.

Now Nico Harrison has been fired. let the Anthony Davis trade proposals begin! Here's one that Sam Presti could make happen if he wanted (he can throw in a few of OKC's absurd stockpile of picks). But that just doesn't seem like the OKC way. (Maybe if they'd lost either of their game 7s in the Western Conference Finals or the Finals Finals last year...)

Why on earth would the thunder trade for Davis?

 

[Cugel]

Trade the mvp, maybe the finals mvp, and get fired, who woulda thought?

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Why on earth would the thunder trade for Davis?

I was thinking the same thing. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

They wouldn't.

But they could. That makes them pretty unusual. I think the Rockets would probably be much more likely to WANT to trade for him, but they can't make up his ridiculous salary (without giving up KD, and why would the Mavs want KD?)

Or as Charles Oakley used to say "if it ain't broke, don't break it"

On a commercial during yesterday’s broadcast.

It was OT. It’s not all that bad in today’s NBA that’s all about jacking up as many shots as possible. In previous decades you’d get your ass glued to the bench.

Can we stop hyping kids before they can even do long division? We’ve seen this so much in the last 10 years, and most of the time the kid never even becomes a name in college, let alone an NBA star. Let these kids be kids… The fact that “top ranked 4th grader” is even a thing is ridiculous IMO.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I want to revive my suggestion of an Expendables team of all the vets that can't be traded but aren't really wanted on their current teams. THAT should be the Vegas team, just like all the has been singers that have "residences" there.
Candidates:
CJ
Middleton
At least one current King
AD (on loan until he loses 30lbs)
Ja Morant (on loan until he gets a better attitude)

Teams get the option of just giving the player away (a la expansion draft) or loaning them to showcase better (a la "soccer" teams)

Blazers could use a center.

Kings are getting ready to blow it up. Get ready for the Domantas Sabonis rumors to resurface.
