I never thought Porter would fall to us. As I posted before, too many teams learned the lesson of Embiid, even if that lesson won’t be true for all players.

MPJr canceled his workout Friday. I think a top 5 team made him a promise, which means Doncic really may slip to 7. If Doncic is available at 6 it is our duty to make sure he doesn’t end up a Bull

That is a very good point about Griffin.

At this stage in their careers I would rather pay KP a max than Blake Griffin.

idk if my putative star player said he got diagnosed with anemia 7 or 8 years ago in Spain I’d probably look into that.

I wonder what happens if the draft goes:

Ayton
Bagley
Jackson Jr
Porter Jr
Bamba

With Orlando at 6 and Wendell Carter Jr still on the board, I think it would make sense for both Orlando and New York to work out a trade. Orlando at 9 could still grab Sexton or Young to address the hole at point guard, and we’d get in front of Chicago who certainly wouldn’t pass on Luka Doncic./we

Really glad to hear that Sexton is a strong possibility to Chicago and Cleveland… that leaves one better player for us to choose from (if true).

I think we must be forgetting a lot of horrible contracts. What about Gilbert Arenas, who got paid tons of money while doing nothing after he was suspended for bringing a gun to the locker room? What about paying Alan Houston $20M a year for two years after he retired or, for that matter, Carmelo’s contract that Phil gave him? Kobe’s last contract was also ridiculously expensive.

@83

Even if he really is just a league average player, he wouldn’t even be the worst max contract in the league right now. That honor belongs to Canadian Trashman Andrew Wiggins.

Also: Amar’e.

Is Porzingis going to be the actual worst max player in the history of the NBA?
