AROUND THE NBA THREAD. Sept 2021 edition

Mickey Mantle was the same. Being liquored up brought out his demons for all to see.

He can play the 4 fine. He's never been a center, even if he was listed as such. Nurk would destroy him in the post. But he can shoot. Has one of the greatest shots from mid range. He can hit that and would fit just fine here.

Old saying is that you are what you defend. He can't defend 4's anymore, so he can't be one. On this roster, he'd be a 3rd-string center.

Millsap to the Nets, Jeff Green to the Nuggets. It's like a trade, but with free agents.

Nets also have Vanterpool:

So funny Green changes teams every year. Good enough that everyone wants to sign him. Bad enough that no one wants to keep him. Bizarre.

I was exc

Sure, but then don't say how you'd love to play beside Dame again. It's disingenuous .

Guess I should have used green font.

Right now, Cam Newton will make his decision Nets or Lakers? Stand by

But man! Can he shoot. It always seems like he never misses when he's wide open. Blazers were one of the poorest teams in the league at hitting wide open 3's. Dame missed out on a chit load of assist.

Hey, he's all good as long as he's starting.

Wtf is going on with all these simmons polls. I'm not clicking any of them. Looks like the forum got spammed.

when/if he takes the floor as a Nugget, that will be his 12th team



so, it will be a 5-way tie. Green could break the tie next season

I want to see him dealt at the trade deadline, just so that he can break the record.

Huh. Here's a thought: howabout a backup PG WHO'S ACTUALLY A PG!!???
Boy, Olshey sure likes dunkers, doesn't he?

Or maybe Olshey loves signing Jr’s

Seems like unnecessary anger towards LMA. How do you know we were even interested? Maybe we passed on him last year since we had Kanter and Nurk at the 5. Maybe he tried again and we turned him down now too with Zeller and Nurk. He can't really play the 4 anymore.

Yeah, these words don't go in the same sentence.

He barely played 4 when he was here, defensively. Who can he guard now? He's always been a liability on D...

Maybe it's the name Green. Danny Green is the same way. Seems like the last few years always ends up playing for a contender.
Would love to have him here on the bench.

Watching Rajon Rondo's press conference and he said twice, that he "wanted to be wanted" twice.
