Does the money work out?

It does on ESPNs trade machine.

I'd say Sabonis and Lamb for Simmons and Thybulle. 

Not happening. Philly will want way more.

They would. And they can continue having no one playing for them.

That's what they call it now... "swiping"

Dirty play by JaBron Lames. Elbowed him in the face. I guess he was “battling for position” with an Anderson Silva type elbow.

I'd have paid some high-level PPV prices to see Stewart get his hands on the retreating Lebron.

Probably worth exploring the idea of breaking up Brogdon/LeVert. Its not good. And I find it hard to want to keep LeVert over Brogdon

I'd say bye-bye to both. Brogdon is about a 4th-5th option on offense and he never cares to play defense anymore. LeVert is really more of a 6th man type. Like Lou Williams. Come in and score and go sit down.

NBA came out and said Durate should have gotten a free throw on his game tying three with 6 seconds left. 

 

Yah no ****. It was text book not letting the shooter land. Guess he should have laid on the court for 5 minutes acting like he got shot. But then run down the court, make another play and flex about how strong he is. 

 

Thankfully the LeBaby act never caught on. Probably cause coaches told players to cut that **** out, its annoying and not entertaining at all

Refs in the NBA have gotten better, not way better, but better. But still make a lot of mistakes. College refs are way worse though. At some point, officials need to be held accountable in some way.

NBA has done a relatively good job with reviews at least; Though I wish if they won their first challenge they;d get a second. But whatever U guess

A change I want for both NBA and college is the ability to contest fouls during timeouts and halftime. 
 

I don’t want to interrupt the game.  Teams get to keep any advantage such as free throws and possession. But I’m tired of games being altered because stud players have to sit for some amount of time because the refs make a terrible foul call or two

I'm just tired of officials making calls when they are out of position. And it happens to often. Just assuming there was a foul rather than actually seeing it. They'll call a foul when out of position but watch a guy take 6 steps and ignore it.

"When the Thunder rolls"

Oof. Well I was wrong. Probqbly worth looking to trade guys. 

 

Myles - I still want to keep him. If nothing else he is a top 5 impact defensove guy. His offense is mpre confident and improved under Carlisle as is his defense.
Domas - I just don't get the appeal, He is a big that can't shoot, and is a bad defender at everything. He can't defend on the perimeter. he can't defend the rim, and he can't defend other bigs. He is just Vuc but a better passer. 

LeVert - Get him out. Super inefficient. Bad defender. Doesn't fit Carlisle's system. Injury prone. 

Brogdon - I'd want to keep him. Gotta find a way to get him less on ball responsibilities. He is oui best perimeter creator and thats an issue. 

TJM - Yah keep him. Good leader. Good energy guy. 

Goga - Maybe we could get a 2nd? I don't get how he fits on this team. And he is out of the rotation when IJ, Domas, and Myles are healthy.

IJ and Duarte - Get these guys as much run as they need. Both have been impressive so far. Want to see how good they can be.

TJW - Like I guess he is here until the offseason? Dude hasn't played in so long, Why would anyone take a chance on him

Everypme else - All expendable. Can't really think of any that I'd but upset if we traded them

 

PLEASE STOP ACQUIRING INJURY PRONE PLAYERS
