They're deep as all hell now, and that's with Nunn not playing. Jimmy Butler is the perfect leader in that his irritating style is right up Riley alley They are in good enough middle ground to pull off a few trades while giving up their young assets. As I been saying before I can see Bam and Herro being moved for Embidd While it will take a little more work, most likely a 3 team trade to get a CP3 trade done since they been after him since he was on the trade block tho they don't really need him and I worry about him and Butler clashing |

I think they should deal DJJ, Herro, and a 1st for Beal. They need scoring and to keep Bam. Embiid's defense and gas tank are suspect. |

Right now I think Beal is a candidate for Minnesota, Miami, or even Golden State tho getting Wiz to take Wiggins is a tall task Miami needs a knock down scorer tho. If they don't get a Beal I can see them trying to do what OKC did and just a good amount of scorers. No doubt they would try to go after Gallo and Clarkson in free agency. |

Didn't they have a deal for Gallo at one point but it fell apart over salaries? |

It was the Miami, Memphis deal that sent Iggy to Miami and would sent Gallo to Miami too but I think they couldn't agree on an extension |

Chris Webber says so much without really saying anything at all.

Why do you think I'm unhappy? Because the Pacers are the Hawks of 10 years ago Exactly. They're so focused on making the playoffs that they haven't planned on how to make a team that can actually win in the playoffs. And it sucks. I hate only going to 1 NBA Final because the league sure as heck will never acknowledge our ABA accomplishments. Being a Pacers fan is misery. |

There have been more stepping out of bounds in the bubble than I have seen ever. Can we go back to the white lines plz? I know it is probably some sort of social statement, but there's already dozens of those literally written on the players themselves.

Before the bubble, I reiterated what everyone has known for years. Dame is good enough to separate his team from the bottom and take all the fun out of that part, but his team is a JTTS. Nurkic's conditioning was never great, they're gonna burn him out before the end of this series if they aren't careful. Melo is Melo, Trent Jr is still very young. He should have come out East years ago.

He should have come out East years ago. Portland stood a small chance and that chance is out the window Dame is too loyal to ask to be moved and it is going to take a lot for Portland to move him. He was my bold prediction this year too get traded and another bad season should mean he should be traded but we shall see Portland is in that dreaded middle mans land. If I was the executive, i'd really start thinking on moving pieces. Dame will fetch you a ton. I think CJ is as good as Bradley Beal but unable to showcase it like Beal was until Wall went down However, what I expect is them to go harder. Would not be surprised if they try to swing a deal for Kevin Love |
