Westbrook. What were they thinking. This guy has a ridiculous chip on his shoulder.

That Kevin Durant Achilles tear changed the course of the NBA. He was cooking and the Warriors likely win the title in 2019. He probably still leaves because he is a soft baby, but Klay probably doesn’t blow his knee.
Now he’s been a baby in a place he got a coach fired in Brooklyn wanted to team up with Kyrie and got hurt feelings. Asks out. Now he’s sulking in Phoenix and they have ruined the franchise by trading for him and Beal.
If he stays in Golden State they probably win a few more titles.

What's up with Miami's home games always feeling half empty?

The Mavs might really regret letting that one slip away after getting the lead.

Big two trades of last offseason bombed hard. Lillard is old and can’t play D and Beal was never going to fit with Booker and KD.

It's hard to see a way forward with this core for Phoenix. The new CBA rules mean that as a second apron team: no MLE contracts; can't take back more salary than they send out in a trade; no aggregating contracts in a trade. Basically, they're stuck with signing draft picks and minimum contracts.
As far as trades they could make, that Beal contract is untradeable without attaching compensation, which Phoenix has very little of. (Plus the league's only *official* no-trade clause).
Durant would probably be happy to be moved (to his choice of team), but that doesn't save them from the awful redundency of Beal and Booker. Trading out Nurkic seems like an option, if they can get multiple rotational players back (while accounting for less money than Nurk).
I wonder if they'd consider trading Booker. Like if they could get a few FRPs and multiple useful rotational players, that might give them a shot to build a team around Durant, Beal, Nurkic, and Allen.

The owner is making trades, that is a bad call to start off with.
I could see Durant back to OKC they have the picks and roster.
He really never should have left the Warriors because Green said some bad words to him.
He was perfect for that team, for that system, and that team was perfect for him. Curry even told him he would defer the #1 spot on the team to him. He left rings and a lot of money behind to go team up with Kyrie.

Thunder sweep the Pelicans.
I’m on the Thunder train. SGA winning a title would be awesome.

Thunder/Nuggets would be an awesome Western finals
SGA vs Jamal Murray
Hopefully Lebron and the Lakers are sent packing tonight.

That was something, the last three minutes of the Nuggets win had no timeouts. The timeouts do create some drama but it was cool just to see the back and forth with no interruption.

Jamal Murray, what's a baller. If Bron even wants remotely another chance at a title he's gotta get out of LA

Given Toronto’s picks this year, and the thought that junior lebron if drafted by a team could bring with him his dad, would you entertain a wasted draft pick to bring in James for a year? To me, this team is here nor there, and I would bring in Bronny with Lebron for a year only if James doesn’t play GM while here.

If I owned the team I'd do it for the marketing and merchandise revenue alone
If he's still there at 31 then I'd do it for sure
