I like drafting patton to go with towns and butler with wiggins and rubbio

I'd be good with Patton and Wiggins for Melo

If Wiggins cam live up to potential they'll be good, will be interesting to see how well they defend as a team.

I wonder if they'lol be as big of a "monster" as Indiana was?

This was a once or twice a decade opportunity to trade for a superstar IMO (James Harden being the other). I think the other 28 teams will regret passing on this opportunity.

They got rid of the aesthetic beauty(Lavine) and got two dogs Butler and Burton and a graceful 7 footer they can play with Towns in the future.

I like what LA did as well. Ball, Hart, Kuzma, Lopez. Solid draft haul.

Philly with Saric, Simmons, Bolden, Covington have some unique players at the forward position.

Yeah impressive start. Philly has to prove they can stay on the floor.

Now it's up to Walton to show us what he can do. They have a pretty good lineup and should make the playoffs in the tough western conference

last night a lot of the analysts were praising this

my gut says this doesn't turn out well

They have a lot more work to do though. They have zero shooters.

for which team? Minn was a 31 win team. 41 would be a big improvement.

Jimmy Butler's trainer, Travelle Gaines, sent out this message about the Bulls. Wow, this is ugly.
0-82.worst culture in the league.I met drug dealers with better morals then their GM. He is a liar and everyone knows

For all the Phil and Knicks bashing as an organization people don't pay as much attention to teams like Chicago. Most of the Knicks stuff is Media Hyped to look worse than it is.

What's impressive is their ability to keep that under wraps. Though that's probably more the media lacking care then anything else. Mid season Rondo ripped Wade and Butler comparing there lack of leadership in comparison with Pierce and KG. There have been many quotes about how disgruntled everyone is. That Butler didnt get along with Hoidberg. But nothing is ever expanded upon.

It's also strange that Butler's trainer is saying this. Did Butler tell him to? Butler doesn't want to say it and get in trouble? Or is the trainer mostly speaking on his own?

The good and the bad both get more attention in NY. That's great! Who wants to be an ignored team? It's up to Phil and Dolan to actually turn the critics into supporters.

The only solution is to WIN. The Knicks need to develop these kids and win more games and then the narrative will change. At some point KP and Phil will talk it out and it'll be about Basketball again

Minn moved the needle more than any other team yesterday. Amazing trade for them. Putrid for CHi...
