@SamQuinnCBS ""The Lakers cannot conceivably build a package to trade for Giannis." Bro the Lakers just got Luka for AD and a single pick. Normal rules don't apply to them. If Giannis expresses any interest in the Lakers they can make it happen. They have as much to trade as the Knicks do"

"Yea dont really get this. AD isnt the passer or screener that Domas is and Domas benefits from playing center and therefore not having the floor clogged by another big which AD wont. He does a lot of things better than Domas just not the stuff that defines Domas role"

"I think if you're placing SGA above Jokic today you sort of have to buy the whole "best player on the champion is the automatic alpha" thing which I don't. They played in a series. Jokic was better. SGA's team was better so they won. SGA may pass him but it's still Jokic imo"

"@SopanDeb I think this is probably true I just wonder how much box office appeal Russ really has in 2025"

"The exclusively a shooter market seems to have reset in this $10-11 million AAV range. This is a bit more than Sam Merrill got. Its less than Duncan Robinson but his deal isnt fully guaranteed. Ultimately a solid contract for Milwaukee"

"I'm fascinated by how awesome this MLB postseason has been from an NBA person's perspective. Think about recent NBA complaints. Some fans dislike the playing style. The league isn't creating as many stars. The games take too long. MLB faced all of those issues and fixed them"

"I think some of these issues NBA fans have had are more pressing than others but they were THE talking point early last season. Meanwhile MLB is in a renaissance because of some smart rule changes and the right players ascending. Shows how quickly things can change for a sport"

"I'm trying to think of who the closest analogue to Giannis is from a trade value perspective. Say this goes down next summer. He's entering his age-32 season with a playing style that presumably won't age super well. 2004 Shaq But Giannis is obviously far better conditioned"

""The East is weak." Yea ok. Is it so weak that last year's Celtics could've won it without Horford Porzingis or Holiday I really don't think so. I'm not a doctor. I can't say when he'll be ready. I just wouldn't want him returning to what is basically an unfinished roster"

"It's "the Kings need a new roster" really. But if we go off where they were at the beginning of the offseason with the goal of trying to be decent next year imo the move was to add a low-maintenance passer (idk a Brogdon type) and then focus on improving defensively"

"I cannot stress this enough: the Kings should not trade another pick. They need to lock those picks in a vault and launch the key into space. But I feel like this ends with them eventually lightening the protections on their 2030 pick+Monk for Kuminga offer and making that deal"

"For years the player that stood out to me from being in locker rooms/press conferences was Porzingis. There was no way he was his listed height. Tallest I'd seen up close. And then I saw Wemby and he was meaningfully taller. Like it's jarring even in this world"

"I actually find this plausibly logically consistent. The Blazers have a competitive right now roster. However their long-term upside rests one of many young prospects some of whom have some star potential but haven't shown enough yet eventually becoming a franchise guy"

"I've had this theory on why they're the GOAT basketball podcast pairing for a while now: Most high-profile NBA talkers either lean towards being smart or lean towards being entertaining. Bill is the smartest entertainer and Zach is the most entertaining smart guy"

"There are NBA podcasts that I genuinely revere as brilliant that make me smarter by listening to them but are so dry I just can't do it consistently. There's also outright slop that I'll hate listen to because it's sort of fun. Zach and Bill achieve perfect harmony"

"No team creates awkward front office dynamics like the Sixers. The Colangelo intervention. Hiring Brand then hiring Daryl over him. Now soft-hiring Myers while Daryl is still there. It can never just be simple and easy there"
