Doncic is already able to draw those Hardenesque bullshit foul calls. He’s so advanced.

Allen has a WS/48 of .136. Now I know why Fizdale won’t play him.

im not so sure about lonzo.. hes probably best suited as a low usage pg type… in that way hes a bit like rubio.. only he never gets to the line … guys like that arent all that valuable since their upside is effectively capped…

not getting to the line at all it means youre not really capable of expanding your game outside of the opportunities ppl give you… thats always a bad sign..

the other skills are there and hes a talented passer but the scoring ability will probably improve but not by that much… he probably will be a fringe to ok starter type…

Wow Shawn Jefferson is really passively aggressively shitting on Rick Carlisle and the Mavs organization. Seems to harbor some resentment that Carlisle microscrutinized him during his time there.

Watching the Nets/Mavs game reminds me why am so happy THJ isn’t with us anymore.

We are one pitiful team… Just was on ESPN and saw our team leaders in points, assists, etc… Our current leading scorer is Knox at 12.4 ppg, assists Trier at 1.9 per game and Vonleh at 7.9 rebounds per game.

ESPN is wrong about all three, not to mention the fact that several starters got traded midseason.

Unverified rumor was that Lebron wanted the Lakers to sign Carmelo but the Lakers said no. And knowing how no other playoff contending team has seemed to show interest in his services, I am willing to bet that this rumor of Melo refusing to sign with the Lakers is just an attempt to spin the fact that no team he wants to play on wants him to play with them.

What are the odds that the Lakers strike out in free agency and LeBron requests a trade? Or better yet, demands a buyout?

When Carmelo Anthony says that your team isn’t good enough for him to sign with, that’s rock bottom, right?

I’ve fantasized about everything you wrote here since Mitch’s rise into a rookie monster and DSJ came along in the KP trade. It would be the kind of a development that would set us up for a generation of basketball that Knicks fans have earned after a 21st century of futility. But I don’t agree that Lavar will stay shut. He had an understanding with Magic Lonzo’s rookie season and opened his mouth that Lebron was coming over even before his son played his first game with the team. He’s done a better job of biting his tongue since Lebron came over to LA, but I doubt he’ll stay shut for long if Lonzo comes over here.
