I “could” be a genius

 

[ant]

Would you do a Shaedon Sharpe + picks for Booker?

 

[CJ_is_Gone]

Would you do a Shaedon Sharpe + picks for Booker?

Nope.
There is a very good chance that Sharpe develops into Booker.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Nope.
There is a very good chance that Sharpe develops into Booker.

There is a very small chance that Sharpe develops into Booker.

 

[JDC]

Would you do a Shaedon Sharpe + picks for Booker?

I would think strongly about if we won the lottery and got Flagg.

 

[Cugel]

There is no chance Shae develops into Booker. Zero point zero.
I see Scoot's ceiling being Rubio. That isnt terrible.

On another interesting note I was perusing a real gm thread
4-5 teams with no top 50 players:

WAS
CHI
BKN
POR
and probably CHA, Ball comprises the finest of china.

POR's roster is close baby!!!
How could people be so gullible to think POR is good? Dont get me wrong, I love this team, but it ain't good.

 

[JDC]

I would think strongly about if we won the lottery and got Flagg.

Scoot
Booker
Tou
Coop
DC
Deni

That's a pretty sweet top 6.

 

[THE HCP]

Who cares where KD goes? He never really improves the team he goes to. Even the Warriors got worse.

KD is on OUR roster, we make the playoffs.

 

[THE HCP]

That tweet above says the Suns COULD get 4 1st round picks…… and the Mavs COULD have got 10? Shit, we COULD get 6 for Ant. What a horse shit collections of words.

 

[inconceivable]

Is there really a race for MVP?

How can anyone rationalize not voting for Jokic?

Put Joking on the Thunder and Shai on Nuggets and Thunder would be better than they are now and Denver would be worse than they are now

Stats wise, Jokic wins
Value to team, Jokic wins

Best player on best team, team is good.

I think this is all marketing so there is something to talk about and to generate NBA buzz but there is no race in my opinion. If you vote for SGA, it's just for something new. Jokic should be 5 straight MVPs

 

[BigGameDamian]

Would you do a Shaedon Sharpe + picks for Booker?

Isn’t Booker is a franchise all star level player?

 

[Phatguysrule]

Jokic is MVP. No question.

 

[CJ_is_Gone]

Isn’t Booker is a franchise all star level player?

I don't think so.

To be a franchise level all-star, you should be an all-star participant at least 75% of the time (Dame level or better).

Booker is more like a LMA type all-star. (closer to 25%-50% of the time).

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Jokic is MVP. No question.

I agree. He's in the top 3 for points, rebounds, and assists. That's insane.
and in the top 10 for 3 point percentage.

 

[wizenheimer]

I don't think so.

To be a franchise level all-star, you should be an all-star participant at least 75% of the time (Dame level or better).

Booker is more like a LMA type all-star. (closer to 25%-50% of the time).

Dame was able to drag worse teams than the Suns into the playoffs. Booker doesn't have that kind of gravity

[Cugel]

Doc should have saved the timeout to move the ball up. The shot by Hali was clearly ok and the foul was blatant. And yeah give Giannis the ball and take an air ball 3. Give it to dame for fucks sake.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

that’s pretty surprising, honestly

 

[inconceivable]

that’s pretty surprising, honestly

no one pays attention to the wizards

 

[THE HCP]

 

[Cugel]

Not the kinda guy you want to attempt an open field tackle on is he?

What would it take to get Zion out of NOP?

 

[SheedSoNasty]

What would it take to get Zion out of NOP?

I think the real question is can he make it to the end of the season without another injury?

 

[wizenheimer]

I think the real question is can he make it to the end of the season without another injury?

I wonder if you can make that bet in Vegas

Junior Bridgman… RIP

Remember watching him play for the Bucks as a little kid.
Arguably one of the greatest success stories OFF the court a basketball player has ever had. You thought Jordan had a lot of money!!??

RIP Ulysses.

One hell of a businessman. Wendy's, Chili's, Coca Cola, Ebony and Jet magazines, minority governor of the Bucks. Guy knew what the hell he was doing.

 

[Cugel]

Yeah gone too soon. He was a legendary entrepreneur.

Junior Bridgeman was a huge success, but Jordan had/has more money.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Junior Bridgeman was a huge success, but Jordan has lost more money gambling.
