No one wishes to constantly be unavailable to your employer. I doubt he gets a 2nd NBA contract

Christian Wood S&T 3 year deal…Matthew Dellavedova S&T (inexplicably 4 yr deal) lol…

Good point, Sean. Thanks.

That actually helps because the Lakers could probably get him to agree to a 3- year $60 million deal, which makes it easier to handle the hard cap. $20M/year vs. $25M/year.

Honestly I don’t see Lowry being the guy to elevate this team. The grainy truth here is that, barring cooperation from the likes of Schroder, Gasol, Harrell et al we’re stuck with this roster for the most part. Need to hit some vet minimum gold, 2 way gold and maybe even draft gold. Any/all of the above is just as likely as finding a perfect S&T scenario.

3 years and what if Lowry’s decline this season wasn’t just the result of being shut down because the playoffs were playoffs were out of reach? Like magicman said: Nash 2.0.

This is what always happens in the playoffs. The physicality ramps up, the legs are tired from the grind of the season and the three’s don’t fall. Could be pressure on a guy who canned a high % in the regular season but now the lights are a little brighter, stakes a lot higher and that shot drops off a cliff.

Just wait until analytics tells us that, in boxing, you should only throw haymakers at 33 degree angle in order to maximize KO potential. Some of this is getting to levels of absurdity only media juggernauts can appreciate. The great ones understand the value of short term gains in the face of waiting for the wonder shot to land/fall through the net.

Yup. Watching this Clipps/Suns series with my nephew (the family disappointment) and talking about how much the Clipps are missing Kawhi’s mid-range game when the 3’s aren’t dropping. They switched up last night and pounded the paint for 58 points tho..

It’s really the long two that is the shot teams shouldn’t take, 17 feet to the 3-point line. Solid 10-15 foor midrange shots are gold for players like Chris Paul, Paul George, LeBron James, Kawhi Leonard as they were for Kobe Bryant and lots of stars from earlier eras.

RJ Dort Shai Jamal Murray is your backcourt in 2024

That’s a team that can do some damage. With a lot of top tier guys sitting out the Olympics feel a little more competitive this summer from a hoops standpoint. Simone Biles though? Dominating.

Beverley is a total mfer.

CP3 jumps sideways into Beverley and pays the price…he deserved to be mocked. Kinda noticing as we get deeper into the playoffs that the refs aren’t calling as many fouls when these dudes are flopping on their 3pt attempts..which is a good thing.

Ty made excellent adjustment to go small against Ayton and big against Saric and PG was unstoppable. Regardless, there’s no team in the league with as many despicable players as the Clipps. May they crumble and choke.

It was adjustments, yo Doc, it was adjustments.

T.Lue has been the best coach in this post-season and it really ain’t that close. Clipps will ultimately lose without Kawhi but it won’t be due to the coaching. Good to see him proving that he was more than just Lebron’s assistant.
