Yeah I'm all for skewering Wonder boy for these moves but top 8 in the history of the freaking Celtics is crazy recency bias.

What happened to Masshole genius Brad? Bro got fleeced. Enjoy washed PG and wasting 2 more years of Tatum's prime.

Tend to agree. I do think Kessler can develop as a championship center. Already a very good piece and competent big men are at a premium.

I feel sorry for Pacer fans that have to watch that POS. Maybe yall get lucky and he stays in the G League or gets traded asap.

USA has looked very sharp so far. Hope Pulisic is able to rest against Turkiye and come back strong in the bracket round.

Back in my HS and early college days, this conference consistenly had dudes that would make national All American lists. College talent all over the field, and those Colerain teams were juggernaut level. If its still anything like that, this kid has been tested already.

Fox has always been low basketball IQ, but now everyone gets to see it. Agree that Mitch Johnson played horrible rotations. And they just have...no offensive game plan whem things go south. Its all reliant on the guards beating their man off the dribble and kicking or lob to Wemby. Now they have the skill to make that work, but the Knicks had wayyyy more structure in the PnR and off ball movement by OG, Bridges, and Shamet. Its good to see Mike Brown get a ring while Fox goes home empty.

Yeah that floor makes no sense. Someone with the floor of McCollum and ceiling of Mitchell would be #1 most years. With Brown's low back injuries already at age 20, his floor is needing a walker with tennis balls on the legs in a decade.

I know its his 1st year there but dont forget Jose Alvarado. Born in BK and raised in Queens. Undrafted out of Ga Tech.. Low income grew up Knicks fan but couldn't afford tickets. Now traded to New York and its a literal childhood dream come true. Hollywood wishes it had that script.

Right there with ya. Probably an unpopular opinion here but also rooting for NYK. Several reasons 1. OG is that dude and I want him to get a ring and Finals MVP. 2. Spurs have won plenty. Knicks fans need this. 3. My team has had plenty of battles with the Spurs so I have grown into a Spurs hater, even if this squad is genuinely likeable. 4. De'Aaron Fox low basketball IQ legitimately got Mike Brown fired from Sacramento (yes yes its a broken franchise but still), and it would be poetic justice to see him win a title over Fox.

Mitch Johnson definitely **** the bed last night, but I would be legitimately shocked if they moved on from him following a Finals run. Unless you meant more experienced assistant coaches, which would be a great move to replace Sean Sweeney.

I like the comparison between the Duncan Spurs and this squad. In fact, next year Wemby will be the same age as Duncan was when they dominated in 99. Big difference is that 99 champ team has the vets the Spurs dont have in key positions. Robinson, Sean Elliiott, Avery Johnson, and Mario Elie all had been around the league between 8-10 years. Agree that this team has more top to bottom talent, but will the young guys be ready to dominate by next year? We will see, but either way this is invaluable experience for the future even if they lose.

I realize he just now got a ratings bump, but watching him several times I could never figure how or why he didn't have more HM offers. He can absolutely take the top of the defense as the Y.

That was the wildest **** I have ever seen. OG is the king of New York

Lets all think of the positive. Sure, it seems like the collapse of a beloved sport. But there happens to be top DL in the nation that is committed to a team that is currently in a swirl of controversy. Any drama around Tech certainly could not hurt our chances at landing Mr. Brewster
