Only way it hurts them is if he tries to do his dribble around game, but I highly doubt they will let that happen. When he was with the Pels, he had this great ability to go one on one at the end of games and try to have handles like Kyrie. He would then bounce the ball off his foot or knee 80% of the time.
lol Kerr will bench his butt if he does that probably. He'll play within their system. I think it'll help his value come FA time if he does. Show he bought into a team concept or some junk

Ja Morant is something else. If Bulls get the 3rd pick and Zion and Barret are off the board, it’s going to be hard to pass on him.

Kristaps and Luka Brasi wow

They did the whole white player thing right unlike us with Kirk/McDermott/Dunleavy/Gasol.

So...go with young Europeans

Euro players are pretty legit these days honestly. Even that Teodisic guy who gets no playing time on the Clippers is a dang good player...Doc just doesn't want to play him.

But we all know GarPax ain't looking at Europe...just those places that Gar has ties to.

That's a solid starting 5..

and we thought we had too many alpha males with Butler, Wade and Rondo. At least Simmons is happy to get assists.

My son left work for his punishment, I mean the game, so I reminded him how much shit the Pacer fans gave the Lakers yesterday and hoped the crowd lets Davis hear it.

Brushed under the rug yesterday but Harrison Barnes was traded to the Kings for what I assume is a playoff push by them

Paul George is making a very strong case for MVP this season.

Lakers are pathetic. Not many games left and you’re fighting to make the playoffs and you lose to a horrible team like the Suns.

Of course though, none of it’s Lebrons fault. Despite the fact that this same team, a year younger, won 36 without him.

So the Kings were finally relevant this year after nearly 15 years of being miserable and they decide to fire Joerger. I wouldn't mind if the Bulls went after him. He's a good coach.
