Barcelona did sweep Real Madrid in the best-of-5 ACB Finals.

Rokas played well in the series, especially in game 3 (13 PTS 4 AST, but he had 7 assists in game-1 and scored 10 PTS in Game-2).
He raised his game when it counted and that’s a positive sign.

Barca has a budget problem (they will waive Mirotic despite him still having 2 years on his contract) so maybe they’ll be happy to get Rokas’ NBA-buyout dollars and let him go (or, given his age, they can try to keep him and let Sato, Abrines or Kuric free).

He can be a low cost alternative at the backup-PG position (with a lot to learn obviously) or a filler in a bigger trade…

I’m still awake, and will try asking this again on the new thread, but your Question of the Night:

How much would you be willing to give up, in players, picks, and swaps, for Paul George?

I’m still not sure what the Knicks are going to do or should do, but even if there is no big deal, they have to do something small to get better. If you don’t get better in this league, you are falling behind and getting worse.

The LA Clippers have left various rival teams with the impression through their Draft Week conversations that they are, at a minimum, attempting to gauge Paul George’s trade value…

If I was the Ballmer, I’d blow it up while he can still extract value from George and Kawhi, but I didn’t think he’d consider it. I thought he would try to run it back one more time.

I don’t think there is any Steph Curry waiting at number 7, so I just have a different opinion.
